Same for me... I had a DT phase once.  I will also definitely check out this collaboration release; I think everyone should and most likely will purchase it. Smile

I'm in that group too. Very little DT for me please. They are the KISS of Prog Metal. Yeah...no thanks.

You know, it seemed to be inversely proportional to my love of PT which was a growing process over the course of a year or so.

Well, it hasn't actually been confirmed that Portnoy is drumming on this yet. So far, its a Wilson/Akerfeldt project.
Hello, mirror. So glad to see you, my friend. It's been a while...

Good LOL... they could do with a more unique drummer, IMO.  I'm not sure who, though..... any suggestions anybody?

I think Gavin would be fantastic, although maybe a bit too familiar because of his (amazing) signature style... David Bodie from Kayo Dot is my next pick after Gavin for best modern drummer, although they have such insanely different and jaw-droppingly amazing styles it's really hard to compare.

Oh this is good.  I went to my local chain store after work today looking for the new Porcupine Tree DVD and was bummed they weren't stocking it.  Stock what I'm after or I walk, dammit!!!  The funny part was that there was a shoplifting taking place as I was leaving.  I think it was like three people.  One of the women pushed through the automatic doors before they could open to make her escape.  Weird. LOL

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I was just about to say 'they already have Gavin Harrison's phone number' but you beat me to it! LOL

Other choices? I'm with you on Bodie. Also, Danny Carey from Tool would be a fine selection. Or Neil Peart?

Danny Carey, now there's a thought. That'd be great
Neil Peart is fantastic, although I like the more subtle stylings of other drummers. The more I think of it, Martin Lopez (used to be in Opeth) would be fantastic as well.

^Lopez would be amazing! What's he up to these days? He was an exceptionally good drummer in Opeth.

thanks for the album entry man!Thumbs Up there will be a reviwe soon.
 
the project seems interesting. i love both pt and opeth but i'm not a very big dt fan. i'd love to see tomas from meshuggah behind the drum kit, in several interviews sw has said he wants to collaborate with them

There is already a thread about this threesome somewhere here and there is inclusive a discussion about them using someone other than Portannoy as a drummer.

Now that's what I would love to see!  I know Steven's a Rush fan, something tells me Mikael isn't... LOL
 
 
Martin's a great drummer but I think he is too similar to Gavin.

I just thought of something: maybe they could get Chris Maitland??...that would be a good line-up; he'd be the perfect drummer for the electronic, psychedelic stuff (if they do that).

My IEM boxset arrived yesterday! The packaging is very nice, with the individual vinyl style album sleeves. Haven't had a chance to throw it on the CD player yet. Ought to do it today!

Wow... they really packed the DVD full of goodies!  I can't wait to purchase this set; I'm sure it will be great.  It's also gonna be great to see some live Bass Communion stuff.  Keep it coming Steven!

Awesome! That's even more extras than I was hoping for! I've gone nuts with the SW/PT stuff this year, but I'll be getting this one for sure!
