Guys, this actually happened. As longtimers, I am surprised you don't remember this.
Citation needed.
I remember the fake leak, obviously. I never saw anything about MP allegedly being the perpetrator though, either then or since. Happy to be proven wrong if you have a link to any evidence though!
I don't have a "citation" but I remember reading an interview where he confessed to it.
I don't have time to search for a citation. But I remember it.
Now watch me be proved wrong. All my memories will be LIES!
I certainly remember people saying Mike Portnoy leaked it, but... I've never been sure if it's something that actually happened, or a rumour that got out of hand. I remember hearing it, but I don't remember hearing that it was true. I'm sure he must've posted something on his message board, if it is. I might look there. But! Later.
If you or anyone else does find a post from MP, or a news article or something, then do post it as I'd be interested to see. For now I'll keep it in the "rumour" category, personally.
And yeah, it would be great if there's a DT announcement today, but RR have a LOT of bands, so it may well not.
