Interview1 min read
Richard Karsmakers: When you didn’t get selected to become the new keyboard player in Dream Theater, how did you feel about that?
Jens Johansson: I was disappointed, I guess I felt at the time that they deserved the best possible replacement for Kevin. They’ll have to live with their horrible mistake for the rest of the band’s life! ;)
RK: Following now is the “words to react to” segment. Feel free to associate and write away!
RK: Derek Sherinian.
JJ: Dream Theater’s new keyboard player!
RK: Kevin Moore.
JJ: Good lyricists AND keyboard player (like I said, when they called about that Dream Theater gig I was pretty surprised that he was leaving the band. And suspicious! :). I certainly wouldn’t have wanted to be involved if he was fired or something stupid like that.
