>hiromushiさん、まーしゃるさん、POOYANさん こんばんは。 NY公演の前日の3/31にジェフがあるラジオ番組のゲストとして出演していた時に事件は起こったようです。 ジェフの態度に激怒したマイキーが彼のサイトでコメントを出したので、DTファン、QRファンが騒然となり、事が大きくなってしまったため、ラジオのパーソナリティのエディー・トランクが自らのサイトにコメントを出しています。 ↓下記の通りです。 "Lot's of news this week as once again the radio show made some noise about the statements Mike Portnoy made and the revelation that he and Geoff Tate do not get along. The truth about what happened is this; Geoff was a guest on the radio show 3/31. I have interviewed Geoff many times on both TV and Radio and he has always been great to talk to, always outspoken which is what you want a guest to be. Chris Jerricho co-hosted the show as you heard. Chris is a huge metal fan and loves Queensryche and DT and always brings much to the show. Prior to going on the air we were all hanging out in the kitchen of the Q104 studios when I mentioned to Geoff that we were all going to the big Dream Theater show at Radio City Saturday night. It was at that time that Geoff asked that DT not be a subject during his time on the air and that he had some differences with Mike Portnoy stemming from their tour together a couple years ago. Geoff said some things about Mike and clearly had no problem that the entire room was hearing how he felt. Jerricho and I were surprised since we thought the two were cool and were unaware there was an issue. We also explained to Geoff that Mike was a friend of both or ours and that was pretty much the end of it. Again, this happened OFF the air. I played a DT song and talked about the show the next night early in the radio show, then had Geoff come in. He did 2 1/2 hours of radio and we played all of Mindcrime II. During the show Jerricho decided to text message Portnoy to alert him to what Geoff had said and to find out what triggered it. At the DT show the next night we all discussed it a bit and then Sunday Portnoy decided to go public and give his thoughts on his site about Geoff. There has also been considerable email from people upset at Geoff's comments about Ozzy era Sabbath and his dislike for it. I do not agree with his statements about Ozzy/Sabbath but I sure as hell believe he has a right to his opinion! It is what I have always encouraged on my show and what makes it real. So at the end of the day we learned there is clearly an issue between Tate and Portnoy. Hopefully one day it will be resolved but in all honestly it's not up to me to get involved or comment further. I have been flooded with email about this and once Mike took the story public many have asked for my take. So there you go. Trust me folks, in my 23 years of radio I have seen stuff like this countless times with so many artists. Not the first, will not be the last! Look for me, Portnoy and Jerricho to have a Metal Summit special next month, details soon." ↑引用して良かったんですかね?(汗) まだ私自身事実を完全に把握していないので、これから↑をじっくり読んでみようと思います(苦笑)。 長くなってすみません(汗)
