No big deal, no big deal : he would be responsible for the delay in the announcement, the Minnemann. And that alone should be punished by being forced to play AC DC music for the rest of his life. What a challenge! ;D

Perhaps they are taking so long to announce it because they are genetically engineering the perfect drummer?

His name will be... Langinemann!

Nah, they're building the perfect 3 man kit. They're also working out the mixing for it. One kit will get left audio channel, one will get right, and the third will get center. Center will also be mixed higher The person working the center kit will change from song to song. Drumming creativity will be at an all time high.

...Fuck I wish that were true.

Anyone notice the "Wikipedia" paragraph on the new drummer?  :lol

"The announcement of Mike's replacement was revealed in a long statement by the band to be Mike Mangini. Marco Minnemann was the initial choice following the fabled "7 Drummer Audition" but has since repudiated the offer due to personal reasons not as of yet revealed. Former Berklee intructor and friend of the former skinsman Mike Mangini has agreed to man the drum throne for the immediate future and is currently recording his parts for the new release"

Glorious source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dream_Theater

P.S: If this was noticed before, or changed by any of us, sorry, didn't really follow the latest pages of this thread.

EDIT: Paragraph already got deleted.

I wouldn't trust wikipedia for something like that, especially since they haven't had any long statements revealing anything yet...  Looks like someone with wishful thinking edited wikipedia, because if it says it there, it must become truth.  :lol

I noticed they even changed the band member list and other areas to include Mangini, someone was thorough.

Maybe the Rudess/Minneman jam session was a chance for Minneman to evaluate Jordan as a potential future band-mate... and maybe Jordan failed the audition.  :P

Nope, posted by whoever runs https://www.drummersdominion.com ...so its far from an official source. Just thought I'd post it anyway.

EDIT: It seems the guy is from the Boston area and seems to be well in the music scene there, and went to Berklee and studied with Mike Mangini, so I'd say he could well know something!  :corn

I'd say there have been several unofficial round about leaks now and they all point to Mike Mangini. Even though we can't be sure yet, it sure seems obvious at this point.

You know what this reminds me of? When you're standing in a GA concert, everybody is jacked up to see the band, but then it takes ages for the band to come on. All the while, for inane reasons such as a curtain fluttering, everybody goes frantic, only to die down once everybody realizes it was nothing.

That's kinda the situation right now. :lol

So true :lol
Jesus Christ himself* comes down amidst a choir of 2 billion angels singing Handel's Hallelujah chorus. As KrotchRaut shred randomly on guitars made of dragon bones using picks made from God's kidney stones, Jesus heals a blind woman who promptly gives birth onstage to a creation of pure light.

*Yes, Jesus Christ himself. Nothing less will do.
