Mike Portnoy letter to fan

9/15/91

Kyle—

Hi there! Thanks for your kind letter. This should put to rest your concern of whether or not it would get to us. (It just takes a while to be able to answer all the mail – but we do get it.) Anyway – let me start by saying that after a couple years of waiting & waiting – we are finally back in action! We took a year & a half looking for a new vocalist & finally have one. We have also just signed a new record deal with Atco Records. We’ll be recording the new album through the winter with an expected release next spring. Soooo... there’s finally some new Theater material to look forward to. (We’re more excited than anybody – believe me!) As far as “W.D.A.D.U.”, I also have heard that the CD is out of print. :-( However – I still see it around in some stores. One I know for a fact has the CD is “The Music Den”. The phone # is (516) 766-8686. Maybe they’d send it to you. If they won’t – somebody, somewhere would. (They are still out there!) Anyway – that’s all for now. We’ll be sending out some newsletters with updates soon – so I’ll keep you informed! Until then – keep on Dreamin’!
