Editing Transatlantic (band) (section)

===Years of hiatus (2002–2009)===
Morse left his regular band [[Spock's Beard]] in October 2002, stating "God wants me to do something else," which meant leaving the mainstream prog scene to launch a new career as a [[Christian music|Christian]] musician. This move also included ending his activities for Transatlantic. Portnoy reacted: "This spells the end of Transatlantic as I wouldn't possibly consider continuing it without him."<ref name=archive/> A live [[DVD]] of the tour was released in late 2003.

In the years to follow Morse continued to collaborate with Portnoy both in the studio and on stage. Morse' concerts frequently included one or more Transatlantic songs. A three-quarter reunion took place on 23 August 2008, when Stolt and Portnoy joined Morse at the Three Rivers Prog Fest in Pittsburgh for "We All Need Some Light" and "Stranger in Your Soul".
