"Big DT news" - MP

[Dark Master Of Sin]

It's obvious MP is just announcing to us that he's making an official Dream Theater twitter for us all to follow.

[LCArenas]

I guess we won't get to sleep this night because of this.


EDIT: Wait, we wont get to sleep just because of a Tweet that was deleted? WTF?

[Scurvy!Dreams]

I bet Charlie and Derek have rejoined the band. Just you wait and see.

[Shadow2222]

I have other school related stuff to be doing, but I can't stop hitting F5 on this thread, Mike's twitter, and the MP forum!

lol. I was just thinking we should have a DT fan twitter account to tweet out all news, even if it's just retweets from official stuff. There are a few, but they all suck and are never updated.

Tie-in to DTF perhaps? I'll start it up if there's interest, we could get a few people to watch for stuff and take care of it.

[Dark Master Of Sin]

I would finally have a decent reason to make a twitter

BIG NEWS: Coheed & Cambria co-heading with DT.

That's the BIG news? BIG news is (would be) another concept album. BIG news is (would be) JM writing all the lyrics for the next album. BIG news is (would be) that any member quits the band.

THE BIGGEST NEWS is that KEVIN MOORE WILL FINALLY PLAY "SPACE DYE-VEST" WITH DT.






LIVE FROM NEW YORK IT'S SATURDAY NIGHT!

I am so Lost.

Maybe MP i making a guest appearance on Lost.

[antigoon]

To be fair, I think touring plans of any sort count as big news, given the previous news that DT would not have a 2010 NA and Europe tour.

[blackngold29]

Somehow I don't get the feeling that MP would tweet out something like that if they were losing a member, because that would essentially mean the end of the band.

[SystematicThought]

I am nervous for some reason

Who said anything about losing a member?

[brakkum]

ah, i suppose i didn't take that seriously, considering it was a joke.

[reneranucci]

The big news is that after all these years they will remove the purple background of the forum.

MP is probably in front of his computer right now with tabs open to various DT fan sites throughout the world and laughing.

[robwebster]

laughing and wanking.

nah seriously though, pretty pumped. seems like this is gonna be an interesting year to be a DT fan.

Why? As far as I know, they're doing next to nothing as a band.

[Setlist Scotty]

Just for the record, I'm absolutely positive that MP's twitter account was not hacked, nor did someone else posted that blurb. I say that because he and I have been e-mailing each other and at the end of one e-mail (from 2/28), he added

PS - there may be BIG news coming next week in DT land........    : )

Why MP.com is currently shutdown and why the twitter post was pulled is beyond me. But for the record, I haven't a clue as to what this surprise is supposed to be.

[brakkum]

Glad to have those things cleared up, thanks Scotty!

[chrisbDTM]

the twitter post was pulled? doesnt he know by now that this is what happens when he says stuff like this? haha

i remember last august when he said there was gonna be a surprise at the NY stop of prog nation, and people were freaking out and he had to tell people to chill

You mean.... Scotty doesn't know?

[Nick]

You are my hero Scott.

[Progmetty]

I didn't know Scotty was conected to DT, I thought Blob was our only link!
Where's the aussie?!

Very true, the delete button is a lie.

Shutting the forum down is either a great plot to build suspense... or a coincidence.

SO DON'T TELL SCOTTY!!!

well, so far we've already had a new single

and apparently big news is on the horizon.

come on, MP's a workaholic. like he's just going to sit back and go "hey, we're taking a year off, just sit there and twiddle your fingers." sure, we're not going to get any more new material, or a live album, but i'm certain we're going to get something different. plus, this is the solo project year - JLB and JP are both working on new material, and i'd be staggered if Rudess didn't take the opportunity to write some neat new stuff. which, summed up, makes it even less predictable than a new studio album. lately they've been going "ALBUM, TOUR, LIVE ALBUM, PAUSE, ALBUM, TOUR, LIVE ALBUM, PAUSE." this is a bit different. which is interesting. vive la differance.

Ha! I've been connected to DT LOOOOOOOONNNNNG before Blob even heard of DT! Actually, I've known MP personally for 12 years now and over the years I've gotten to know the rest of the guys better too.

[glaurung]

What is your connection to the band, Scotty? I always knew you had one but I never bothered to ask until now.

[brakkum]

I may pass away in my sleep tonight due to lack of information inflow.
