Mike Portnoy leaves Dream Theater
This is quite a depressing day for me as Mike Portnoy, currently 5th best drummer of all time and temporary drummer for Avenged Sevenfold has decided to leave the prog-metal band, Dream Theater after 25 years playing for them. It was first announced in a press release and soon after his Facebook page.
Hopefully it's temporary but will be a huge blow if he splits altogether. DT isn't DT without MP. That's my philosophy. I'm very saddened by this. Its as if I lost something precious, which it is.
Despite this there is some good news. John Myung, bassist for DT is leading the vote for Best Bassist Of All Time
