๐ ๐ฅ Happy Birthday to our dear friend @metalallegiance and @dreamtheaterofficial maestro @mikeportnoy! ๐ ๐

Celebrating 90 years of an absolute legend โ Don Menza ๐ท
A devoted husband to Rose, proud father to Donia and Nick Menza, and a towering figure in the bebop jazz world, Donโs career speaks for itself. From writing and arranging to holding down the first chair on tenor sax for icons like Buddy Rich and Louie Bellson, his contribution to music is nothing short of monumental.
Today we honor not just the artist, but the man, the family, and a lifetime of extraordinary musical legacy.
Happy 90th, Don โ your impact continues to resonate through generations.

๐ณ๏ธโ๏ธ๐ What an incredible week out at the Monsters of Rock Cruise.
From tearing it up onstage with Ellefson-Soto, to stepping out for the Riot Stitch RockWear catwalk, to hanging with great friends and making plenty of new onesโitโs been one for the books. Always a pleasure spending time with guys like Eddie Trunk, Don Jamieson, and Jim Florentine, and just soaking in the energy that makes this cruise so special.
And this year, even the yacht rock jam out by the pool was a highlight.
Thereโs something truly unique about bringing this music to some of the most beautiful places in the world, surrounded by fans who live and breathe it just like we do. That connection never gets old.
Shoutout to the MORC staff and crew who make it all happen! If you havenโt experienced MORC yet, make it happen next yearโyou wonโt regret it.
Up nextโฆ back on the road.
See you all out there with Kings of Thrash and Metal Church. ๐ค ๐ธ ๐ฅ
