It's ok, LG. It comes with the territory when you're in a prog band.

The one that's not Mike Portnay!

Wonderful point, Lynch.

Well if he's played with Steve Vai then that must mean that is he one very talented drummer but my biggest concern for Dream Theater since Mike Portnoy's departure has been and continues to be all of the other things Mike did for the band since he wrote a large chunk, if not the majority, of their lyrics, handled half of the production for their albums, and numerous other backstage things. Now they all are hard working guys who I don't doubt can fill in those rolls but I just wonder how different it'll be still....

Oh and here's a pic of Mike Mangini with the rest of Dream Theater:

I knew they were going to take him I just knew it.

I didn't even watch the 2nd or 3rd part to their documented search.

I knew he was the fit visually and technically from the moment he played.

That's my favorite song by them Haven't gotten so much into DT but they are good.

^^ Spirit Carries On?? If that is the song, this is not it.

It's a title of a documentary of the band auditioning drummers. Check it out. It's cool!

Mangini was really solid in Extreme. I am sure he is on other records I've listened to, but I mostly remember him for his work on Waiting For The Punchline.
