Mike Portnoy

Last Mike Portnoy interview before leaving Dream Theater from Jon Mikel Caballero on Vimeo.
I saw this video on Facebook and thought it was interesting enough for me to share. I was particularly interested in the Twelve Step Suite which was about Mike Portnoy's engagement with alcoholism and the twelve step programme to overcome his addiction. This completed the circle of why Dream Theater would add a slightly altered version of the Alcoholics Anonymous Declaration, the altered version being "I am responsible when anyone, anywhere, reaches out for help, I want my hand to be there". Possibly a phrase worth living by.
