I'm hoping that he decides to go back to Transatlantic now that the Sykes band is up in the air. I'd like to see that be his full time band.

I think Neal calls the shots on that one

MP is doing 2 shows and a DVD shoot with sherinian, sheehan and macalpine.

maybe another version of liquid tension experiment? yes.gif

i would not be surprised to see prognation revived maybe with those guys.

That could be an awesome project.

yeah, i like all the players and have seen them all live except for MacAlpine.

 

i went and saw Yngwie just to see derek. derek kills it in the cobham song which is the first song of the 5 i posted above. i thought tony overplayed the beck song though.

That's some really cool shiat! I might have to support this project! 1022.gif

not sure if they have the intention to record or if this was just a get together for NAMM?

Since he is down one band now, I guess they can laugh.gif

I know, mdad, that I would be devistated. A7x was hot, he was sick of dt, and he thought beyond a shadow of a doubt that he was a true brother of theirs.(a7x) Then they whacked his azz... Ouch. Try explaining that one to the wife over dinner...

you never know with MP.

 

i guess i am in the minority but if MP truly did leave DT because he thought they needed a break then i have to agree with his original intent.

 

i don't like the new DT much as its too labrie heavy for me.

 

DT peaked between I&W and ACOS to me.

I think he sounds great, my problem with it is , nothing new. I thought from the first time I heard Angels, it was rehashed . Good album but not in the league of Six Degrees IMO

I don't think he has to worry about Cash but I am sure he is missing the $ flow he got in the past.

it was a prog soap opera breakup.

 

MP may regret leaving but as a free agent he seems to have a bright future and the flying colors project seems promising. The new DT is well received but maybe DT regrets MP leaving too as based on what i have recall the new disc did not chart as high as BCSL nor sell as many copies.

 

am i wrong there and did ADTOE outsell BCSL?

When it came out Bcsl sold about 10,000 more than when the new one came put. Bcsl also charted higher.
