"Big DT news" - MP

[OsMosis2259]

Is there really a big connection with MP deleting his tweet and then the forum being down? 

[Setlist Scotty]

What is your connection to the band, Scotty? I always knew you had one but I never bothered to ask until now.

I started off with doing the tourography for MP, but it's grown from there - maintaining the MP.FAQ (which hasn't been updated in eons, I know), DT-izing cover art for when they do a cover live, interviewing MP on occasion for the fan clubs, designing the last 3 tourbooks and putting together the packaging for many of MP's side projects (all his tributes as well as the LTE live stuff). I think that's it...

[Plasmastrike]

Fucking awesome line of work you're involved in man.

[Scurvy!Dreams]

This just in: James LaBrie to be an unlockable character in God of War III.

Ah, okay then. Thanks!

That's got to be a fun job

The difficult part is unlocking the platinum shovel weapon.

[Jamesman42]

Well, let's not get our hopes up too much.

And the especially special move that comes with it.

This waiting thing is murdering my soul.

Well, I'm going to bed, hopefully good news awaits me in the morning.

MP Tourography? Hell, I think I'm as familar with your work as you are.

And the fact that there has yet to be an anouncement makes my blood boil.

[brakkum]

I am still waiting patiently... PATIENTLY I TELL YOU!!!!

[Scurvy!Dreams]

It's 1:30am EST. I think it's safe to say there won't be any announcement tonight.

I CAN DREAM A DREAM

[AcidLameLTE]

So I wake up to NOTHING?!

[Zydar]

Well I wouldn't say nothing

[tri.ad]

The waiting and not-knowing is tough, isn't it?

[AcidLameLTE]

Well I wouldn't say nothing

[Martinman300]

I just read this entire thread in about 3 seconds and no news!?!?!?!

First I thought that DVD cover was real. It looks amazing!

[Nihil-Morari]

Dammit Mike.

In the next 24 hours there will be big news, let's begin the countdown.

[glaurung]

Well, MP's forum is still down. I guess I'll go to bed and hope there's news in the morning.

JLB is beginning his Broadway career, as well as becoming an Arctic explorer.  They asked Billy Joel to replace him, but Joel said that'd be like Charlie Dominici fronting a progressive metal band.  Therefore, Mike Portnoy is now the lead singer of Dream Theater.  Don't worry, though; David Prater will trigger all his vocals.  Ringo Starr will fill-in temporarily on drums.  They asked Neil Peart, but he had never heard of Dream Theater.  Jordan has also replaced himself in the band with the official Jordan app, which simulates perfectly everything the real Jordan would do.  JP completed his transformation into a bear and was subsequently slain by Stephen Colbert.  JMX will now handle all music and lyric writing duties -- expect to hear nothing but bass in the mix.  Kevin Moore, after finally tracking down and marrying the SDV girl, is now happy again and has rejoined the band.  He plays with more feeling than the Jordan app, but is not as technically proficient.  Fans are divided over who's better, but the real Jordan is too busy at Wizard School to care.  Derek Sherinian continues to get laid.   

THAT'S THE BIG NEWS!!!

[Progmetty]

haha it's noon here in Dubai and this has been going on this I woke up so it's working nicely for me heh
except for the part where I'm getting ready to get banned upon the announcement of a tour with another band.

Bravo. You probably missed a couple of memes, but nailed almost everything you included. Really elevated it above just wrote listing of the jokes, as so many would do. Good pacing and length. Five star post.

Oh wow cool.  Some news.

The suspense is killing me!

MP is probably in front of his computer right now with tabs open to various DT fan sites throughout the world and laughing.

This.
