I am about to write something I never imagined I'd ever write:

After 25 years, I have decided to leave Dream Theater....
Please read the full article before you post.

So Mike Portnoy had an official press release, so he officially left DT? By the press release, I can't honestly tell if it's going to be a permanent split. Nor can I tell if DT has a replacement drummer. Well, there are a lot of things I can't tell by it. One thing I can tell is, Dream Theater wont be the same without Mike Portnoy.

I still can't believe Mike Portnoy decided to drum for Avenged Sevenfold, such a terrible band. I guess pity makes people do foolish things.

I guess it'll be up to John Petrucci, John Myung, and Jordan Ruddess to carry Dream Theater with James LaBrie singing their songs for them. (I'm not a James LaBrie hater, I actually do like his voice. I just believe he receives too much credit for the songs he hardly contributes to in writing).

Anyway, thoughts, opinions, ideas? Especially on the future of DT. Do you think Mike Portnoy will come back?
