I don't think why he changed matters. He changed, he moved on, he's making music he likes now, and so are DT.

If you look at it that way, almost everything we talk about doesn't 'matter'.  The OP is just curious, that's all.  He's allowed to ask a question without someone saying what he's wondering doesn't matter.

No one knows for sure, but it obviously was a slow process.  It is not like he woke up one day and thought, "Hmmm, I don't like prog metal anymore; I think I'll leave the band to make different kinds of music." 

As for why he changed, why does anyone change?  It happens.  People's tastes change.  That also happens. 

I think that sums it up pretty well in an unbiased way.

I never said anything about not discussing (we already know nothing we say here matters), just saying that his reasons don't change the facts. It's been 15 years, he's moved on and making new music, and so are DT.
Only King could mis-spell a LETTER.
Yep. I think the only party in the MP/DT situation that hasn't moved on is DTF.

I also want to know the specific reason he left. How did his musical tastes change? What did they change to?
He left because he wanted to pursue his own musical endeavors, as a solo artist. We see how well that worked out.  :neverusethis:
He now lives in Istanbul, Turkey near SeroX [he saw km in a coffee shop]
Actually, he lives in Florida now, I believe.

Do you find John Petrucci attractive?

He didn't like John Myung.

Watch this excerpt from a documentary, he says so.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zCcE43n6Rw
Who on Earth is this John Myung character of which you speak? Is he the random Chinese dude in that video? What does he have to do with DT?
 :justjen ???

The band describing John Myung:
JLB: "He's deep. He's deep in thought"
JP: "We have a deep understanding musically"
JR: "John Myung is a very deep kind of person"
MP: "John Myung is an enigma... N he's deep as fuck yo'"

No he lives in Turkey! About 1-2 weeks later he is going to give a concert I guess!

Classic pic, but not really appropriate in this thread.  Here, we started out talking about Kevin Moore.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

I was just wondering where the pic was. And since it was a KM thread, it seemed appropriate to ask.

One thing I've always wondered is if Kev has kept in touch with anyone of the guys in Dream Theater when he left them in '94. Especially John Petrucci since it was his childhood friend. You know they maybe don't go out with in to the fans.

I am a big fan of his music with dt.  I hate his personality.  According to MP, he was very uptight, no fun to work with, frustrating, and he has his ways of working which aren't very conducive to collaboration.  Also, didn't they invite him to wdadru, but he refused?  And he just pretty much abandoned the band for himself.  When you are in a band, it is more than just making music.  It is a family, and a promise that you will stay with the band, and devote your life to the band.  That shouldn't be broken for what you want to do.
And I am not bashing him, any "insults" came directly from and interview with mp on blabbermouth.  My only opinion is that I don't like kevin's personality.

I am a big fan of his music with dt.  I hate his personality.  According to MP, he was very uptight, no fun to work with, frustrating, and he has his ways of working which aren't very conducive to collaboration.  Also, didn't they invite him to wdadru, but he refused?  And he just pretty much abandoned the band for himself.  When you are in a band, it is more than just making music.  It is a family, and a promise that you will stay with the band, and devote your life to the band.  That shouldn't be broken for what you want to do.

 :lol :lol :lol

Is this a serious post?  

So, basically, you hate his personality based on what Portnoy says it is. :lol

Also, if Moore is a [insert any derogatory name here] for abandoning the "family," then I guess the rest are also [insert that name again with an 's' at the end] for firing Charlie Dominic and Derek Sherinian, right?  Or is it okay for them to fire someone and kick them out of the family, but not okay for someone to leave the family on their own?  

I mean, let's get real.  Joining a band doesn't mean you are tied to that band for life, like you suggested.  Musicians leave bands and bands fire musicians all of the time.  It happens.  Get over it.

Fixed, and quoted for emphasis.  Line-ups change all the time, especially in prog.  That's just how music works.

No, I got that.  It's just that, we have nothing to base that on, except from the mouth of Portnoy, who has shown to be somewhat bitter about his ex-bandmate, so you have to take his words with a grain of salt.  For all we know, maybe Kevin Moore thinks Portnoy's ways of working aren't conducive to collaboration (which would make sense, since Portnoy is on record as being someone who argues until he gets his way). 

And what about your comments about family and all of that?  You still sticking by that?

KM actually spoke very graciously about MP's contributions to the first two OSI records (interview links are in the OSI threads in Music Discussion)...compare that to how MP bitched about those sessions...shouldn't be so fast to take one side of the story as Truth...

If that's the case then DT has yet to find their Gilmour.
