Regarding the event, Mike Portnoy made a few points: “For those that didn’t see the post last week and are still asking these questions:
• This is not “a new band or project”, it is “an EVENT” that will be making several select live appearances in select markets throughout 2017
• The lineup of musicians joining me for these shows will not be announced prior to our live debut at my 50th Birthday Concert on Cruise To The Edge…
I want that to remain a surprise until our unveiling
• The setlist at these shows will be comprised of the 12 Step Suite and (time permitting at certain shows) other Dream Theater songs that I’ve written the lyrics to
Keep in mind, I have no plans (or interest) in revisiting DT material in any of my other “real” bands…this is not an ongoing “project” or career move…this is merely a unique event that I am doing in select markets in 2017 to share with fans around the world… so catch it while you can!!”
