Please don't

Check out this Mike Portnoy piece on Blabbermouth.

All above board so far as he's got to promote his shit. Why people keep asking him Dream Theater questions is a discussion for another day. He's gone as in nearly 4 years gone and the second album with Mike Mangini is out next month. You have to admire his honesty in answering those questions rolling his eyes as he does so.

What caught my eye is the comments section underneath the piece and look who replies to the comments. Well it's none other then Mr. Portnoy. Admirable for sure but why Mike why? Certain folks have made up their mind about a band or musician many moons ago and just get a kick in spreading negativity. What's the end game here, by replying to some comments he might get brownie points from some folk but most of the unwashed will probably hate him even more for it. Where's that move on there's nothing to see here cop when you need him.

I'm looking forward to the new Dream Theater, I love the Adrenaline Mob cd and The Winery Dogs is a solid release. Everybody is a little older now, a little wiser is another question.
