 Mike now you've  lost all your credibility and the few fans  that still were on your side . It 's sad to see that you can't move on .

IDK if it's over, but I doubt that he would ever join DT ever again and even if he does, I doubt LaBrie would continue to be in the band; maybe Myung would quit too.

I can see either Petrucci or Rudess or both collaborating with him in the future, maybe in LTE, but not in the near future, at least.

He's almost the New Yorker Roger Waters now (Roger wanted to take everybody off the band, after all, I suppose there's a difference LOL). As Henry has brilliantly put in the past: "nice career move, dick".

The new Dream Theater chapter has begun......


Or the first chapter of LaBrie, Mangini, Rudess, Petrucci, & Myung.


Which, if they remain as concise as they did in A Dramatic Turn Of Events, is a good thing.

This.

And didn't the guy want a break so the band let him have it? Ermm Sounds to me like Portnoy's kind of a whiner.

Second impression:  He will get nothing but publicity out of this

What did he expect the other guys to do, curl up into a ball and die?

Dream Theater is among the most well-known, popular, and I would guess lucrative prog/metal acts in the world - the other members would be foolish not to want to continue.
