Portnoy VS Mangini

[Sebastardo117]

Do you really need me to explain this?

[Bertielee]

No offense meant, but ever since MP quit DT, there has been a lot of debate on who is the better / favorite / most hairy, handsome/ whatever drummer. But you are new to the forum, so you're not in the know.
Welcome to DTF anyways. you'll enjoy your stay here.

Please do.

Obvious/widely accepted opinions:
-Mangini is more advanced technically
-Portnoy's sound was better

The rest varies based on personal taste.

[YtseJamittaja]

Portnoy is more soul and metal
Mangini is more technical and skillful

I can't compare them myself.

Not sure we need to have this again.

The thread does already exist at https://www.dreamtheaterforums.org/boards/index.php?topic=28601.0 though.
