| Adrenaline Mob, that Morse project, now a "power trio" with John Sykes and a bassist TBA... From Eddie Trunk's Twitter: | Quote: | Wow check out this shot. http://t.co/s3aTd1O
News just broke on the set of TMS! New power trio! John Sykes. @MikePortnoy and a bassist TBA. Awesome!!
Its on!! I knew about this but needed to wait till we tapes to reveal! They will do some Blue Murder also & recording http://t.co/Bz79fAN
Name of the new Sykes Portnoy band TBA. Bassist TBA. I heard demos. Sounds like killer Blue Murder meets '87 Whitesnake. Amazing! |
Busy guy. Is he trying to fill a void in his life? |

| Last time I checked Ty Tabor was doing solo albums, King's X, Jelly Jam and a variety of other projects.
Quality musicians SHOULD be that busy, Portnoy is no exception. Good for him.

| Portnoy has always done this....even in Dream Theater. This way, he stays as busy as he wants without having a "main" band to have to report to. He's a free agent. Besides, Adrenaline Mob is cool, but Allen has Symphony X to report to so it's still in in-between thing for him. |

| Hmmmm, having Sykes on board sounds a little more promising than that other project. I like Portnoy, but after hearing some clips, I just can't get excited over the Adreneline Mob stuff.

I'd be happier if it sounded like Thunder & Lightning.  |
Yeah, that'd be awesome. |

| Didn't mike portnoy want dream theater to slow down a bit and take some time out which leaded to his exit from the band?
He's always been a busy man and had loads of side projects over the years but did he really expect dream theater to sit around while he ran around with all his other bands. Glad they told him to get lost if that's the case. |
