@Jcrudess yang mengatakan begini:
I'll miss Mike because not only is he an incredibly talented drummer and friend, but he's always supportive of me and my sonic adventures! Setelah saya telusuri dari tweet Jordan Rudess yang lain saya temukan press release sebagai berikut:
DREAM THEATER Press Release To all of our loyal fans and friends: It is with profound sadness — regret — we announce that Mike Portnoy, our lifelong drummer and friend, has decided to leave Dream Theater. Mike’s stature in the band has meant the world to all of us professionally, musically, and personally over the years. There is no dispute: Mike has been a major force within this band. While it is true that Mike is choosing to pursue other ventures and challenges, we can assure you that Dream Theater will continue to move forward with the same intensity — and in the same musical tradition — that you have all helped make so successful, and which is truly gratifying to us. Fans and friends: File this episode under “Black Clouds and Silver Linings.”As planned, we begin recording our newest album in January 2011, and we’ll follow that with a full-on world tour. “The Spirit Carries On.” All of us in Dream Theater wholeheartedly wish Mike the best on his musical journey. We have had a long and meaningful career together. It is our true hope that he finds all he is looking for, and that he achieves the happiness he deserves. He will be missed. Sumber:
http://jcrudess.wordpress.com/2010/09/09/dream-theater-press-release/ Mike Portnoy pergi untuk mengejar karir. Ga tau apakah hanya karena ingin hijrah ke Avenged Sevenfold atau sudah berbeda visi dengan anggota Dream Theater yang lain. Tapi yang jelas Dream Theater tetap hidup. Album baru akan mulai direkam Januari 2011 diikuti dengan world tour. Dan juga seperti yang dikatakan Jordan Rudess di tweet-nya yang lain yang menegaskan akan kelanjutan Dream Theater:
No doubt my friend....RT @marceL___: @Jcrudess man, what about DT?? the band will survive? Live long Dream Theater, kami menunggu karya-karyamu selanjutnya. Good Bye Mike, semoga engkau mendapatkan apa yang engkau kejar. We will be missing you!
