MP now on Twitter

[ZeppelinDT]

Hey Gang,

Since I keep my Facebook only for my real friends and family (although I do keep most of my wall visible), I decided to finally take the plunge and open a Twitter account that I will keep wide open for the fans...

Here ya go:

Newest MP update: The new DT instrumental for the God of War 3 Soundtrack is written and completely tracked!!! Me, JP and Paul Northfield will mix tomorrow...

[ZKX-2099]

That is Crescent Fresh news.

I really hope MP doesn't get into battles with the people who will undoubtedly write nasty things to him.

I think he knows better than that...

Why do you think that?

I don't know, he might just write another song about it, in the style of As I Am and Never Enough

[tri.ad]

As I Am's lyrics were written by John Petrucci and they aren't really directed at the DT fanbase.

[ddtonfire]

Even so, they are in the same vein.

MP's new tattoos are pretty kickass. 

[Spacebar.]

New Instrumental to be called "Raw dog". Hmmmmm....interesting. "LTE meets meshuggah" - makes me smile in so many places of my body. 

[BlobVanDam]

MORE?! He's running out of space to put them.

I was thinking the same thing.

"On the left ass cheek please. What? No room left? Oh I meant the right cheek. I think there's some space between the Beatles mural and the street map of the town I grew up in"

As another member said, it's in the same spirit about getting angry towards someone and writing a song because of it. I knew that (and was a little worried that would be the response ).

Holy shit, those two guys in one picture is awesome!

I never answered this.

Because I think Portnoy knows enough about the internet and the massive convulsing pile of bullshit that clings onto it's leg.

[hefdaddy42]

But he does so on every album's release.

"Some big DT news coming REAL soon....hmmmmm...... : )"

[hefdaddy42]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[antigoon]

Portnoy causes yet another shit storm on the internet.

Apparently he got a lot of flak from the Chileans for this

Just had our 4th aftershock of the day here in Santiago...totally scary stuff...cant wait to play the show and get the hell outta here!!!!

[Sigz]

 

[KevShmev]

If Chileans actually gave him flak for that, they are morons.  Anyone with a brain who values their life would want to get the hell out an area that just had a major earthquake and tons of almost equally scary aftershocks.  Heck, most bands woulda got the hell out of there and not played the freaking show, so get real, peeps.

Exactly. If there was some major quake in LA while DT was in town, I wouldn't blame them at all for wanting the fuck out of there.

[Mladen]

Well, the guys want to stay alive, give them a break. 

[ddtonfire]

Dream Theater seem to invite lots of ground tremors. First Tokyo in '95 and now this.

[emindead]

I! WANT TO STAY ALIVE! EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS PLACE JUST DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT!

[Quadrochosis]

Yea he posted like 3 tweets immediately after that one that were mixtures of rage and apologies, lol.

Same old, same old, then?

Pretty much. It was a bit insensitive to say something like that in the first place.



IN
MY
OPINION.

Why? It's the truth.
