Meh. Even though I'm not a big fan of Dream Theater, and like A7X, I don't get this decision. DT's songs were always fun on drums, and prog-metal is just the general more challenging and fun style, while A7X's druming is rather linear, and repetetive. (Opinion here). So, I just don't get it.

I'm gonna act seriously now. It seems to me ,after reading the article. That Mike is overwhelmed in bands, he's subbing for 4 bands. And has to be in a main band. As he said. He's taking a break, maybe he'll come back , who knows? And I actually think DT is a good band, but I just think A7X is better. (JUST MY OPINION)

Just trimmed the last page of the thread. Seriously guys, keep it on topic. If somebody starts trolling, report the posts and it won't get this bad.

I appreciate it, but it seems like you missed most of the bulk. :(

Oh well, hopefully we can just bury that.
