Mike Portnoy, Dream Theater's legendary drummer, says that DT's recent rise in popularity is due to Rock Band and Guitar Hero, and also that there is a possibility for the entire DT catalog to be released in Rock Band. I'm drooling over this news.

Here's the post on Portnoy's forum about the Dream Theater catalog possibility, of which Jordan Rudess also confirmed:
"My company does the official transcription books for DT - we've already been in contact with DT's management about doing DT's music for the RBN. Chris Romero, who transcribes keys for Jordan, happens to be an amazing Rock Band player - he was top 25 in the world at one point on the 360 leaderboards. He was on this the day they announced it - they're looking at the feasibility of it as far as legal issues etc. We really want to do it and Chris is the perfect person to make the charts for them... Fingers are crossed that it'll happen."
