Is it possible that JP tipped the identity of the drummer with his "paciencia y fe" at the end of his Twitter update? I don't know whether Minneman is Spanish/Portuguese or not (possibly Italian? I can't remember right now). If this has already been discussed, sorry I didn't read enough of the thread to find it...

Minnemann is German I believe.

Right on. Guess there's nothing to the use of Spanish there then. They just need to tell us already -- clearly I'm grasping at straws... :blush

—Well, isn't it for the honour of God, Aunt Kate? asked Mary Jane, twisting round on the piano-stool and smiling.
Aunt Kate turned fiercely on her niece and said:
—I know all about the honour of God, Mary Jane

Paciencia y Fe is the title of one of the scenes in Act I of a well-known Broadway musical called In The Heights.  The line "paciencia y fe" is repeated throughout one of the key songs in the show.  It is currently running on Broadway, and I'm guessing JP has seen it, which brought the line to mind.

Thanks Bosk..It's about time that you posted something that made sense in the thread lately! :D

We're good.. Belichik has spoken!

would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

I imagined the story to go more like this.

I was sitting a traffic light blaring Space Dye Vest and next to me in another car was Kevin Moore. And I'll never be open again.

We all assume it will be a big name.


The guys name is probably Steve Jensen or something, a part time Kinkos worker from New Mexico.

I don't care anymore. I wouldn't even care if it was Tre Cool... I just want to hear the new album NOW... even though it hasn't been written (or has it?) and recorded yet. I WANT IT NOW!
NOW!
NOW!
NOW!








ok over it


edit: It's pretty sad that Kevin Moore is in like 4th place on here.
I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

Oh, you're right. Because he's doing some work with Pearl E-Pro, he's definitely not the guy. Why didn't I see the logic in that before?
