Former Dream Theater drummer Mike Portnoy has announced that he has parted ways with Adrenaline Mob, which features Symphony X singer Russell Allen and guitarist Mike Orlando and Disturbed's John Moyer on bass.

Portnoy made the announcement via his Facebook page. Here is what he had to say, "It saddens me to announce that the 4 upcoming shows in Latin America this month supporting Halestorm will be my last with Adrenaline Mob.

"Unfortunately, I have scheduling conflicts that prevent me from being able to fully commit to the band's future activities at the moment. As I cannot be in two places at the same time, I don't want to hold them back and have to wait for my schedule to re-open up to resume activity.

"I'm very proud of what we started together and the music we made over the past two years and I wish the guys all the best in the future."

Part of the scheduling problem may involve Portnoy's other supergroup project, The Winery Dogs, which features Billy Sheehan and Richie Kotzen. That group will be releasing their self-titled debut album on July 23rd.
