Eddie Trunk: "Mike Mangini is the new DT Drummer"
« on: March 28, 2011, 11:00:01 PM »
In his twitter he posted this:
Quote
On the rock gossip wire I heard 2 reports today from reliable sources: VH album is close to done and will come out this year. Label TBD
Quote
And that Mike Mangini will be the new drummer in Dream Theater and is in studio with them. Unconfirmed but likely to be announced soon

Can't believe Eddie Trunk is the one to leak it. Perhaps it's because of his friendship with MP? Pure speculation.

They don't call it Blabbermouth for nothing. It took them like 5 minutes. They must have had it written with vids and everything. All they needed to do was add the source.  :P

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.

His attempts at backpedaling seems a bit desperate imo. :lol

But I'll still wait to jump to conclusions until I hear DT themselves announcing the drummer.

If this is true, it's sad because DT didn't get to announce it first.

If this is false, it's sad because of the imminent shit storm.

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

Not everyone suspected it.  Tons of people threw things around about Thomas Lang, whateverhisnamewas Priester, and a little John Macaluso. Also, some people still thought it was CharlieZ, there was the MP's coming back conspiracy theory, and the DT hasn't actually found a drummer conspiracy theory.

Listen to the drums on Elements of Persuasion.  Obviously I think he'd change up his style for DT, but I'd think it gives us an idea of what he likes to do.

Trunk has connections in the industry.  It's completely possible he knows something we don't.  His second tweet on the subject feels like the backpedal.  First he says with relative certainty Mangini's the drummer.  Then in the next tweet, he acts like he doesn't know in a way that completely ignores the tone/implication of the previous one.

So why would you assume he only knows as much as we do?
