You can’t find a drop in replacement for a drum God
And upon the death of Jimmy ‘Rev’ Sullivan what was Avenged Sevenfold to do?
Well why not go scoop out the mediocre Dream Theater wacker Mike Portnoy
Well my friends I think this is the end of A7X. Drumming is tough business and well I suppose I could be wrong but Portnoy hasn’t really…
Well lets say he hasn’t hand ample opportunity to exhibit the insanity that Avenged Sevenfold puts forth.
See there is a difference in the genre of real talent (as this is not a tame sound) and hacks making noise.
I’m very surprised at this choice. But time tells and maybe, well who knows
One thing is for certain Portnoy is a brave man cuz the Revs fans are hardcore and will cream him like corn if he slips up
Quoth the stickboy:
“I want their fans to realize that I’m not trying to step into or fill The Rev’s shoes…I’m just merely lacing ’em up for him!”
Yeah ok.. just don’t fk up.
