Hey, MM claimed he was "good friends" with MP, so you never know.  I bet he's listened to their stuff since he's left.

Ugh.
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 totally fell for it, Bill, well played sir, I should have known better than to think MP would have said anything nice about anyone in DT at all.

PS - This font sucks.

I'm sure he has but MP would never admit it. I don't think I've ever seen an interview where MP even acknowledges him by name.

I knew it was a joke, but I expected to read a fake Blabbermouth headline or something, without the confirmation it was a joke. That's how you should do an April's Fools, make up something fake but belieavable  ;)

Yeah. On my Facebook feed I'm able to spot the fake news right away. One stated that Mike Portnoy was joining Dream Theater for a special performance. Knew that was bullshit. But something as small as Portnoy complimenting Mangini is somewhat believable. Well done, sir.

MP rejoins DT. Too obvious though, needs wittier stuff.

Fuck. I really wanted to read MP saying something along the lines of

"I tried my best to accept and admit we've part ways, but seriously. I was gone and they go and release and album called A Dramatic Turn of Events. Dramatic turn. Dramatic. Drummatic. You just know you gotta come back and release a drums-only DVD with that name and Mangini just didn't take the fucking chance... I HAD to return!"

What would the drumming DVD for The Astonishing be called. We got A DRUMatic Turn of Events, Drum Theater, and... The DRUMstonishing? The Drumming?
