lol Mike Portnoy

From MP's facebook:

MP: There's a HUGE difference about trying to "grab the limelight" and being an entertaining "performer" on stage...

and some comments he liked:


Labrie's mouth is only exceeded by his ego and both eclipse his talent as a vocalist by a longshot. Has he seen some of that early live footage? Can you say pitchy? He's always been the weakest link in the band and correct me if I'm wrong, he wasn't there at the bands inception. So how is he all of a sudden the spokesperson? Oh yes, the dreaded lead-singer syndrome. Public perception makes him the leader? HA! Mike's role in Dream Theater is at the core. Labrie's role in the band is pure luck..yes, he was lucky to be on stage with such stellar talent. He wasn't ever in their league of talent and never will be, he's lucky to be along for the ride. He should keep his mouth shut and preferrably while the band is on stage also...

and:

Is it me or does JL have a serious case of front man envy. It is quite clear that JL felt insecure or upstaged as a singer with MP behind him. Its odd really because that feeling is usually between the guitar player and the singer, (Van Halen), but this reeks of some bad feelings.

you have upstaged my funny post above (don't hate) but since it's MP being MP I'll allow it

classy

What a bullshit rockstar fucktard. Go join A7X again, you faggot.

I can't find it. I wanna destroy him. I wanna hurt him like he's hurt me. I am not a crackpot.

what a douchebag...

search here for potentially more glorious MP moments

He's said much worse things about JLB in interviews. Fucking hypcrite.

I don't really care that much about Dream Theater these days, but those posts really pissed me off anyway.

Prog Sphere: I don't want to dwell on this for too long, but several people have asked me to bring it up: Are you still in touch with Mike Portnoy?

James LaBrie: No.

Fucking lol

james labre should shut the fuck up if it wasent 4 mike portnoy you asshole you would be playing in a cover band in toronto ass hole

My post will be deleted within moments, I'm sure.

Damn that Prog Sphere interview really stirred some shit. Love it.

I would like your post if I hadn't been blocked already.

This is all well and good, but can someone tell me why Mangini has to have his toms three feet above his head? There is something symptomatic about this...Portnoy,we all can agree, has (and had) a monster kit, but never once did it occur to me that it was absurd...those toms really bug me...

what an idiot!!!

yeah, a cover band called Iron Maiden
I love it how the fanatics think that DT would succeed without James as a singer.

lol at MP "liking" posts whereby his cock gets slobbered with fanboy saliva:

MP is the best drummer on the planet and can do as he pleases! I hope he continues to be an entertaining "performer" on stage... Love his stage presence .....just AWESOME~

I can't find this as well. Link it so I can post this on the MP forum.

5/8 reprezent! on that post

I think i already did. I don't know if i can link directly to a specific comment.

Thank you, good sir. Now on to the MP forum to see his beloved brainless minion's reactions.

Done.

Let's see how long Wey will keep the thread up.

TBH, I am disappointed in MP. For the last few years, he started to wane from my top drummers/people list by doing all these ridiculous things.

This was pretty much the last nail in the coffin, so to speak. He inadvertently showed his true colors and people are starting to take notice.

He clicked a button on someone else's facebook response and you lose all respect for him? I click buttons all the time. Lots of them.

First answer. WTF is wrong with those fanboys?

lol you've got to be fucking kidding me?

I knew that those types of replies would occur, but the VERY FIRST reply? Jesus monkey fuck.

one more gem :

LaBrie sounds as if MP was the source of everything bad in DT and now everything is just fabulous now that MP is finally gone. He drags 20 years into the mud. MP has been blessedly and wisely quiet about the split. This might have been finally too much.

i loled

lol at the heads-so-far-up-MP's-ass fanboys. jesus and holy fuck, their responses are even more bootlicky than i'd imagined. here is 100% clear evidence that MP is, in his own words, an egomaniacal, classless man-child (and he can't blame Blabbermouth this time, since it's his own fucking actions -- it's certain that if you "like" some diatribe on Facebook, you are in agreement with it). there's no point. they're lost causes. i knew they were bad, but fuck, these guys are institutionalized bad.

Let's make one thing perfectly clear:
These are NOT "MP's Comments" as the thread title implies...
These are FAN'S comments on Facebook....NOT MINE !!!!
*I* have purposely NOT personally commented on anything that has transpired in months...
I am merely observing what THE FAN'S are saying...
So do NOT put words in MY mouth!
They are allowed to have their opinions....(and I am allowed to agree with them if I do...)
But these are not MY comments!!

man, fuck that asshole. mp's asskissers are giving jlb and the other guys a hard time for enjoying life and work now that mike jewnoy and his enormous ego are gone..... why, exactly? because the new song is better than anything they've done in the last 6-8 years? because they shine on stage with their new drummer? i fucking hate the music business and its fans.

can't he just die and be done with it? I'm sure his fanboys would hold his martyr flag high enough.

holy LOL. MP replied. god, i hate this clown more and more every day.

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

bahaha, he's hiding behind the "other people's comments" line again. what a pathetic baby.

so they basically ARE his opinions if he agrees with them.

Fucking moron.

a reply to MP (by a sane person), on that thread -- edit -- goddammit, why is the txt white on that fucking retarded forum?:

By "liking" those posts you must surely realize that you're basically, in the eyes of most people reading it, implying that your opinion is the same as the author of the post.

jesus and mother god, the next (insane) reply on the thread:

I think the best for all of them is to keep the silence,it's only getting worse!
Don't react to anything,and i know this is hard.i'm kinda in the exact situation with a ex-wife!
Who'll drag everything to her laywer.
I hope they will do,let 'em gossip

I'm pretty fucking sick of people comparing the DT/MP split to a divorce or a split between a male and a female.

what THE FAN'S are saying

LOL at MP. Seriously, what the fuck does he expect when he puts his name next to such comments as "JLB CAN SUCK IT!!!"?

really though, most fans of any music make me want to never listen to music again. why are people just such unbelievable idiots.

you are a brave man, dr poop, going up against MP in the most sane, logical manner.

He needs to realize that emphasizing words like that only makes him look more like whiny little kid.

lol at the poster saying someone else posting MP's opinion's is childish. does he not see the glaring irony in that? where's the facepalm emoticon when you need one...

I love that he put quotation marks around performer. I don't think he understands what that signifies.

MP "liked," i.e. agreed, with the following comment:

I think it is a shame that JL has anything other than postive things to say about MP. I don't recall in the last 20+ years of me following DT that JL did ANYTHING to promote DT or entice fans the way the MP did. Perhaps it is JL's meager way of trying to build up the new DT, but I beleive it really was in poor taste. Shame on you JL. In fact I think you should SUCK IT!

I really can't wait until he slowly starts damaging his relationships with other musicians because of the stupid shit he says. (already happened with A7X)

the best part (for MP, that is) about facebook, is that he can have one of his gestapo pen a hate-filled diatribe (as they have been doing); MP can therefore never have to "comment" personally about the split; he can use these diatribes to get his childish jabs across. for instance, if i were one of his minions, i'd go on facebook and be like, "james labrie sucks giant black cocks." and MP would "like" it, and then be all like "waaah, these are NOT my comments!! just observing what the FAN'S are saying!" .. he's a genius, actually..

i think you mean its FAN'S.

pretty sure that Adrenaline Mob thing will run for one album and then the other guys will dedicate their time to other things again

I'm glad the MPF community has dubbed me a troll for showing them that their master fucked up.

I'll feel better when I wake up tomorrow knowing that this little episode will stick in their craw for a while.
