Mike Mangini facts

[erik16]

Seeing we have a lot of love for MM here, I thought why not make a(n) (un)original thread to appreciate him. Some are blatant ripoffs from Chuck Norris and JP.

Mike Mangini has more limbs than an octupus

Mike Mangini can smoke a cigar and play 58 different time signatures at a time.

MM does not fall into infinity when he divides by zero. Because he's just a fucking awesome teacher!

Mike Mangini gave all the women in Boston orgasms when he got the elusive phone call from DT.

MM's left hand can cure cancer. Too bad he's always too busy with it.

When Mike Mangini has 56 cymbals and you have 56, then he has more.

MM has mind control over every single human being, he's just too nice to misuse his powers.

Mike Mangini's limbs travel faster than the speed of neutrinos.

I'm pretty sure these are not true.  You could be sued for writing these things. Better edit your post to include real facts, such as: Mike Mangini has played for artists such as Dream Theater and Steve Vai.

Well, I'm trying to make a fortune in lies at the moment.

Sorry, bosk, I've actually been thinking of this one for a while but didn't know if I'd have an appropriate time to say it cuz it's kind of in bad taste, but I love Def Leppard so it's ok.

People talk about MM's drum solos, but that's actually the wind-down to the actual solo. The actual solo is so fast it travels backward in time. You have to show up at the venue several hours in advance, long before the band shows up, to hear it. I've heard of other bands' complaints who would play the venue the day before, only to have MM's drum solo arrive in the middle of their gig.
