簡單翻一翻～ ※ 引述《maxtail (馬克斯泰爾)》之銘言： : 新聞來源： http://goo.gl/07Itc : MIKE PORTNOY Sued DREAM THEATER For 'Wrongfully Excluding' Him From Band 樂團人生又一章：肉鬆尼對夢劇場提告 : According to Courthouse News Service, ex-DREAM THEATER drummer Mike Portnoy : filed a lawsuit against his former bandmates in April claiming that they : "wrongfully excluded" him from the group and are "wrongfully using the name : of the band in connection with [their] recording of an album without the : participation or consent of [Portnoy]." In addition, the drummer's complaint, : which was filed on April 27, alleges that the defendants — John Petrucci : (guitar), John Myung (bass), Jordan Rudess (keyboards), James LaBrie : (vocals), along with associated companies Ytse Jam, Inc. and Infinity Tours, : Inc. — "are wrongfully using the name of the band in connection with the : promotion of live performances by the individual defendants, without the : participation or consent of [Portnoy]." 根據Courthouse News Service消息，前Dream Theater鼓手Mike Portnoy於四月控告前團 友們「不當地將他排除在樂團之外」和「不當地在沒有Portnoy參與或同意的情況下以 Dream Theater的名稱錄製專輯」。此外，這位鼓手在4/27提告中，指稱被告──John Petrucci（吉他）、John Myung（貝斯）、 Jordan Rudess（鍵盤）、James LaBrie（主 唱），以及相關的Ytse Jam, Inc.、Infinity Tours, Inc兩家公司──「未經Portnoy參 與或同意，不當使用樂團名稱為被告的Live表演宣傳」。 : In an August 2011 interview with the Greek edition of Rock Hard magazine, : Portnoy stated about his departure from DREAM THEATER, "I didn't make the : decision to leave DREAM THEATER before [hooking up with] AVENGED SEVENFOLD : [as their touring drummer], but I knew that something had to change in the : DREAM THEATER camp. It's unfortunate that it was me that had to change, : because I never wanted to leave the band — it was never my intention; I : never wanted the split. I just merely thought that the band really could use : a break, because I think the romance was really dying — backstage and : between [the members] personally. 25 years without a break is a very, very, : very long time and sometimes these relationships need a break from each other : to rekindle the flame. So that's all I suggested. And even before I [went on : the road] with AVENGED SEVENFOLD, I remember touring with [the progressive : rock project] TRANSATLANTIC at the beginning of 2010 and already knowing that : something was wrong in the DREAM THEATER world and that I really needed a : break from the guys and the whole DREAM THEATER machine. I knew something was : brewing and I knew that I was unhappy, and as has been well documented : elsewhere, I merely just wanted a break. But unfortunately, those guys [the : rest of DREAM THEATER] didn't see it that way and didn't respect my request : for time off. It's unfortunate [that it turned out that way]." 在今年8月希臘版Rock Hard雜誌的訪談中，Portnoy說明他離開Dream Theater的事：「在 和Avenged Sevenfold作夥（擔任他們的巡迴鼓手）前，我並未做出離開Dream Theater的 決定，但我知道Dream Theater團內必須做些改變。不幸的是，樂團的改變就是我，因為 我從來就沒有要離團──我從來沒有那個意思，我從來就不想要脫團。我只是希望樂團可 以休息一下，因為我認為那種愛的感覺快消失殆盡了──無論是在幕後工作中或在樂團成 員之間。二十五年毫不休息是一段非常、非常長的時間，有時候這些關係需要放個假，好 再度燃起你對它們的熱情。所以，這就是我建議的事。而甚至在我跟Avenged Sevenfoldu 一起（巡迴）之前，我記得自己跟（前衛搖滾團體）Transatlantic巡迴，那時我就已經 知道Dream Theater的世界中有什麼不對勁了，我真的需要從這些人（DT團員）和整個 Dream Theater機器喘口氣。我知道有什麼事正在醞釀，而我也知道我並不快樂，就像其 他地方有刊載的一樣，我只不過是想休息一下而已。不幸的是，這些傢伙（Dream Theater的其他團員）對這件事並不如此看，並且不尊重我想要休息一下的要求。（事情 變成這樣）真的很不幸。」 以下拉哩拉雜資訊和新專輯廣告就不翻了。 ...這整件事真的變成樂團人生了= =" : Portnoy, who co-founded DREAM THEATER more than 20 years ago, announced his : departure from the band in September 2010 while on tour with AVENGED : SEVENFOLD. He has since been replaced by Mike Mangini (ANNIHILATOR, EXTREME, : JAMES LABRIE, STEVE VAI). : Portnoy played on AVENGED SEVENFOLD's latest album, "Nightmare", following : the death of that band's drummer, Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan, and toured with : them for the entire second half of 2010. : DREAM THEATER's new album, "A Dramatic Turn Of Events", was released on : September 13 via Roadrunner Records. : 鼓手Mike Portnoy對昔日Dream Theater戰友提出告訴， : 簡單說就是使用Dream Theater這個名號沒有讓Portnoy參與或同意就是違法... -- 我真的想用比較正面的態度面對這些鳥事，一個人懷恨這麼久太不健康。 不幸的是，有時候放下屠刀最好的方式就是把它砍進你敵人的頭骨。 －－Dave Mustaine --
