Picked this up from Heavy Metal Thunder on FaceBook

Dream Theater: drummer Marco Minneman is strongly rumored to have joined the band as the replacement for Mike Portnoy. The rumors are spreading in the forums. This below is not an OFFICIAL statement from the band, this is a text I received from a source close to the band:

"It's Marco, the chosen one is Marco and the official announcem...ent is planned for January 3rd. There are still thoughts of delaying it but they want to enter the studio as soon as the announcement is done"

That guy is good. I caught him once at a music store drum clinic.

If he joins DT, he'll be a good fit, I think.

I think it's a good choice to pick a no-namer. Let him develop a style privy to himself, if he hasn't got one already. DT is one of the best outfits for him to do so in, as they are open-minded to their sound.

Yep - as much as Mike was doing, he probably had the biggest paycheck in the band

On the commentary on one of the concert dvds, Myung stated that he wanted to play in the bass style of the first album and MP said something like, since that album didn't do well why play in that style again. So we could hear Myung back into the Geddy Lee, Chris Squire type lead bass mode.

Come to your senses, Myung will never have a say, he's the foreign-looking bass player. They never get their way.

Never heard of him, although I've apparently heard his work on those Paul Gilbert albums. In all honesty though, when listening to Gilbert, I'm not paying much attention to the drumming.

I wonder if he was the drummer when I saw Paul live on the G3 tour a few years ago?

According to Blabbermouth...

Quote :
Despite rumors to the contrary, BLABBERMOUTH.NET has learned that 40-year-old international drumming sensation Marco Minnemann (KREATOR, NECROPHAGIST) **has NOT** joined DREAM THEATER as the replacement for the recently departed Mike Portnoy.

DREAM THEATER has yet to officially announce its new drummer despite the fact that the band has been rehearsing with one candidate exclusively since last fall. DREAM THEATER guitarist John Petrucci previously stated about the group's drummer search, "Auditions went great and we do have someone but we are spending some time getting everything in order before making an official announcement. Let me just say that we are all incredibly excited about our choice and just bursting at the seams to let the world know!"

So this means that Lars Ulrich is still in the running?

Scenario:

DT is dragging their feet making an announcement...

MP just finished up his record with Steve Morse and Neal Morse...

MP is going to hit the studio with DT in secret with an announcement in March...


I say this in jest, but I have seen people speculate that DT is having second thoughts about moving on without MP...

Not sure why I'm posting this. It's a big press release that says nothing..."we're almost ready, we think, to maybe make an announcement sometime soon, but not yet. Please stand by"

Quote :


Dream Theater are moving a step closer to announcing the name of their new drummer.

The band have stayed tight-lipped over their choice since Mike Portnoy announced last year that he was quitting. But from 4pm (UK time) on Thursday, April 21, if you sign up to the band’s Facebook page, then you’ll be ready to get info on how and when the announcement about the new drummer is to be made.

Not only that, but you’ll also be able see some of the auditions Dream Theater held in their search for the new man (or woman).

Looks like Mangini got the job! At least they don't have to re-label stuff if they went by first names......

I've liked Mangini since I first heard him on the 1st Mullmuzzler album. I figured he'd get it:

1. He's been on three of LaBrie's solo albums.

2. He's a Northeasterner.

3. Considering #2, less visa problems..... Comedy people, comedy!
