Malisima noticia   Pat Torpey bateria de Mr Big tiene parkinson y no girara mas con el grupo y todo indica q dejara la musica definitivamente debido a q ya no puede tocar. Pat siempre era el tio sonriente de la bana. Parecia q siempre era el q mejor lo pasaba.

MR. BIG drummer Pat Torpey has been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and will be unable to perform all of his normal drumming duties on the band's upcoming world tour in support of the group's new album, "...The Stories We Could Tell".

"I've been dealing with Parkinson's symptoms for the past couple of years and only recently received a confirmed diagnosis as symptoms worsened," Torpey said. "I intend to fight the disease with same intensity and tenacity that I drum and live my life by and will continue recording and performing, as always, to the best of my ability."

MR. BIG will announce a replacement drummer who will sit behind the kit for the band's fall 2014 tour.

Torpey, 54, is expected to join his MR. BIG bandmates for select tracks as well as participate in the group's acoustic set.
