Seems that Mike Portnoy and Geoff Tate are really at each otherīs throats! Check out Blabbermouth.net, itīs getting pretty nasty. Nothing like a bit of action on a Sunday! |

Actually itīs pretty sad to see these guys arguing. Itīs also on Mike Portnoyīs forum where he posted and ran down Tate personally.

I'd be curious to see what Tate actually said "bashing" DT in the press. I will say this... Having just seen them this Thursday, I was truly struck by how much of a Primadonna Portnoy is. The stage hand that was in charge of the boom mic that Portnoy uses to sing missed a couple of cues, and Portnoy threw a tantrum that was noticeable (and frankly distracting) from the nosebleed balcony seats I had. I've never heard anything else negative about Tate before this. ------------- Pure Brilliance:

It would be funny to see Jericho body slam Tate.

Reading all the comments on Portnoyīs website I think he has blown the whole thing out of proportion! Writing in his own forum that Tate is a two faced douche-bag is a bit much

Meh... people always sl*g other people off. And people always come on message boards and talk sh*t about other people. So whatever... if these two wanna do it, by all means do it. I don't see why because their famous musicians they're instantly labeled as "assholes" or whatever for doing a bit of sl*gging off.
