"Forty-five moments of perfection translated through a cautionary escape into the perils of the mundane, the inherent entropy in ultimate order, and the potential threats of eternal, unchecked apathy in civilization; all cloaked in musical expression so thoughtful, creative and forward thinking that almost a quarter-century later, few can even comprehend it, much less match it."

Mike leaving DT is like Jesus leaving Christianity!!! I was shocked to read about it the other day when he posted it on Facebook, but after reading his reasons I totally understood. I haven't really been impressed with a Dream Theater album since "Train Of Thought" which I consider one of their finest moments. A friend of mine mentioned that there are so many great technical drummers out there, DT shouldn't have a problem finding someone who's salivating to play with them. Good luck to Mike and DT.
