14 years old me is super happy that I’ll be able to watch this live ❤

Our opinion: the most elegant rock n' roll and metal drummer ever. Wild and technical at the same time. We miss Portnoy days playing those songs so much!

lol Mike "AAAAAYYYYYEEEEEE"

Love watching Portnoy over Mangini. Way more feel, soul, clean and very technical

In 1982 maybe. I can’t listen to DT live because of him. I completely stopped listen to DT since MP left. Labrie in DT is like Lars in Metallica to be. Both be the reasons why I can’t listen to the band live.

I never get tired of seeing Portnoy pissed of with LaBrie because he denied the jam that the band wanted. Hahahahahha

Because when your guitar or your amp is broken, you change it, you buy a new one, when your bass sounds like shit you get a new one, but if you're ill, or if your body isn't working, you can't do a shit about, plus most bands when touring have to do concerts every night, and sometimes, you don't have enough time to recover properly, i don't think he's a great vocalist, definitely not one of my favorites, but singers suffer with many problems that instrumentalists don't have to.

I don't understand what really happened in DT. I mean they have such fun, skillful and the best musically drummer but let him left the band. And you have such low level vocalist, but let him stay. DT lost their fun jamming since Portnoy left.
