My birthday is July, 11th. That's one day after Ronnie James Dio and one day before John Petrucci.

I do not.  Born on July 20th, which is apparently, eight days after JP.  I do have the same birthday with Soundgarden singer Chris Cornell.

Raise the Drum

I was born on May 5th, same as the great and only, JLB a.k.a The Pirate  :yarr

Thinking of the birthday paradox, which states that in a group of 23 people, there's a 50% chance that two will share the same birthday, I'd say there are a bunch of people of DTF who share theirs with DT members.

I share a birthday with Ted Danson and Alison Brie. That trumps everything else.

and did you find that a good birthday present or not?

JayOctavarium

For the most part, yes.


(I'll admit I had a slight want for Donati to take it but I think Mangini fits perfectly)

Actually they are totally unrelated! In the birthday paradox, 23 numbers are multiplied, with it getting smaller and smaller, then subtracted from one to obtain a reasonably sized probability. On the latter, we expect the DT-DTF matches to be proportional to the number of DTF members.


Train of Naught

The only person who is related in the slightest to Dream Theater whom I share my birthday with is Dave Murray, guitar player of Iron Maiden (December 23rd).

Stadler

I share a birthday (September 10) with Roger Maris, Joe Fuckin' Perry, and Anastasia Steele.  But alas, no member of DT that I know of.

JayOctavarium

If we are just listing celebs we share Bdays with...


Jerry Seinfeld!

For reference:
John Myung - January 24

Jordan Rudess - November 4
Mike Mangini - April 18
Mike Portnoy - April 20

This was really what the decision was based on. All that "musical chemistry" and "drummer auditions" malarkey was just to fill a 60-minute documentary.  :biggrin:
