@michael102387 You're fucking retarded dude.

[BrianClark52]

@RIdrummer96 yes...but first its like 2 bass, 2 snare, 2 toms, 2 bass (quads), then breaks off into the "4 hits on the snare, 2 bass, 4 hits on the toms, 2 bass" and repeats once...then goes to the snare once doing another round of 32nd notes on the toms ending with a bass and crash lol. omg, i just wrote out a mike portnoy drum solo XD

0:47 - 0:51 i always thought he is doing tom-tom-kick-kick pattern on each tom.. But just noticed its all toms!!! No base drum

@sonsofplunder328 And how do you know for a fact he cant hold blast beats?! With all the crap he plays, you think he cant hold one? I know he doesnt like blast beats... hell i love metal but find blast beats to be tedious and somewhat annoying to listen to.

[EvilCrustySock]

Promark 420's. And they dont break that easily unless you play like Travis Barker (a douche).

[Mrskatertips]

@anggitarako he did consult with them buddy

[ashguitar666]

@anggitarako in a way, its like saying lars ulrich would kick out james hetfield just because he randomly left the band hanging in mid air when he left and in the middle of an album...portnoy atleast had asked for the time and the band said no even tho they had nothing schedueled at the time (to my understanding, i try to keep up lol) so he took the time he needed anyway. as a founding member he shoulda been able to take a break these guys tour non stop most of the time.
