[Ken Lyall]

Wilson is currently involved in a number of musical projects. In addition to Blackfield’s next album, he is planning to put out an album this year with his Porcupine Tree band, and he has a new project with the vocalist for Opeth (for which he produced three albums) and Dream Theater’s drummer Mike Portnoy.

Wilson+Akerfeldt+Portnoy, that's awesome! I have high hopes!

As for the project, I am really looking forward to this

I hope I won't be sorry for posting this, I didn't expect to open up the whole drumming thing again.

This just reiterates that SW is positive about a project with Mikael. The only difference in this post is that he infer's that it will be THIS YEAR

Danny Carey is pretty reserved.

I think hes really showing off his chops more on the new album... and im lovin' it.

 

[AbsentFriend]

lopez will play drums

 

[DegradationTrip]

Although I'm not too fond of him, Portnoy really plays well on the first OSI album.

Er.. I thought people knew about this AGES ago?

Anyway, as I said in the NZ topic, I asked Mikael about it, he confirmed it, and said they'd hopefully start on it soon.
