Doesn't look good for Mangini then...

[BlobVanDam]

Boy, JLB is lucky there was already a Kevin in the band when he joined, or else he'd have been out the door by now!

You might be on to something. Maybe the four J's are like Captain Planet, only they become Jesus when they combine.

I'll just get this over with:

[Scorpion]

If it's a conspiracy, then who's behind it? I think that it's JM, he strikes me to be the evil-overlord-world-domination-and-stuff-guy.

Clearly the man behind this is a megalomaniac. A man who is more interested in taking what he wants than he is playing nice. And clearly a man who is overly fond of the letter J.

The answer is clear.

Gives Caught in a Web a whole new meaning now we know who the true mastermind of Dream Theater is.

Last I checked, Mike Mangini joined the band and stayed...    just sayin'

[BlobVanDam]

He's been in the band less than two years. That doesn't count.


And when was the last time you checked?........

So did all the others, until they left.

[Vivace]

Thank God, James didn't stick to his "real" name, Kevin James Labrie.

[phentalmyst]

get joey jordison on the phone then?

[Nekov]

get joey jordison on the phone then?

Please don't

[DarkLord_Lalinc]

Thank God, James didn't stick to his "real" name, Kevin James Labrie.

He had information from inside the system, just before he auditioned.


Shit, things are far more darker in Dream Theater than I thought.

Pffffffft he's just ripping off Tommy Lee.


Obviously my next suggestion would be to get Tommy Lee as the new DT drummer, but unfortunately his name doesn't begin with J.

[rumborak]

John Bonham, clearly.

[DebraKadabra]

Dig him up then, rumby!

[Sketchy]

I reckon in the next few months, we'll find that Mangini changes his name to John.

Derek Sherinian didn't leave DT. He was politely excused.

Sure it does, he ain't goin' nowhere...

And when was the last time you checked?........   

Just today as a matter of fact.   He and I were shooting the breeze, I was showing him how to play some really cool new drum patterns 'n stuff.  I showed him this thread a few minutes ago and he yelled across the room "Hey JP, Check this out!".   <and then I woke up at my desk wondering if the boss caught me napping>   but as a matter of fact, you can check here if you don't believe me. https://www.dreamtheater.net/board_posts/artist-bio

Well by your logic, everyone in the top of the list could possibly leave and thus fall into the same category as the lower half of the "Non-"J"-Named People".   So I fail to see your point...  However as a peace offering I offer Bacon

Fine then, 'until they were no longer in the band'.

God damn this thread became horrible.

[phentalmyst]

wow. i was kidding.

[olliemedsy]

surely get justin beiber on the drums?

[Ruba]

surely get justin beiber on the drums?

No! He's the new vocalist, because Kevin LaBrie is not a real J-person.

[lyfeternl]

MM's middle name is Jacob
