Mangini ‘Will Remain Our Drummer Until The Day We’re Finished Doing This’
If you’re still holding out hope for Portnoy to return to Dream Theater, it’s just not in the cards. James LaBrie has gone on record to squash any rumors of a reunion with the original drummer.
“Mike Mangini is our drummer and he will remain our drummer until the day that we’re finished doing this. It’s just the way that it is.”
