I thought that Myung was about to flee from the interview to lock himself in the attic, but Jordan was there with his loud ipad, so he has no option but cornered outside and continue the interview lol
I love how JM heads upstairs and opens the door to drown out his speech. Even after so many years in such a prolific band, he’s still so private and shrouded in mystery.
I've thought the same thing before! I saw him on the most recent G3 tour and, when speaking to the audience between songs, you would swear he was actually a little awkward, maybe even a bit uncomfortable! It was really striking I'm contrast to such a mind-blowing musical perfomance. He certainly didn't have the usual kind of attitude or whatever you expect from a guy who has spent most of his life playing bombastic music in massive venues all over the planet, which isn't a bad thing.
Lol, Myung. I like how he is starting going up the stairs while beeing interviewed, then opening a room where music plays, then just standing besides it. This is so random. ^^
It is clear to me that the interview is obviously candid in questions, but the flow was clearly defined. Each member was quietly minding their own devices until their turn. Myung went up the stairs to pass the relay to Jordan. I don’t think it had much to do with getting away or the vibe of the room.
Jordan missed the chance to say the best advice he ever got was to not worry and practice very hard and be assured that things were going to turn out fine, given to him at age 20 by a strange bearded man.
Is it just me or is Mangini the cutest/purest member? Like he just seems so happy and joyful about his answers, it reminds me of a little kid showing his parents a coloring he did during art class. I love it.
Eh, in the age of RUclips to we really need in studio DVD’s? Don’t get me wrong, I love the in studio footage and the systematic chaos video, but it seems like the delivery method will be online for most people going forward. Or am I unaware of a huge market for behind the scenes dvd sales?
Myung, the Silent Man. The best Running Gack in Music History. To see him on an conversation more than 2min. Never thought that this will happen some day. It is really a gift of Heaven xD I love it :D
I got to meet Jordan Rudis in 2013 at a guitar show in Austin Texas, really nice guy took the time to talk to me even took a selfie with me, and he even took a selfie with my niece and gave her an autograph awesome musician and a class act dream theater rocks
Rick Sanchez I made the mistake of assuming it would be quiet like their other interviews so I turned up my headphones before watching. Needless to say, I regretted my decision
I'm Moroccan, DT is my favorite band of all time! James if you get the chance to visit Morocco, let me be your guide, it will be with great pleasure! JP is one of my favorite guitar inspiration.
John Myung is not a conversationalist. I got to chat with him for about a half an hour at our kids' school function and it felt like I was trying to have a conversation with a 15-year-old.
@@lt.frankdrebin3317 Yeah! I met the guys after a concert. JM is a really cool guy, and believe or not, he smiled after receiving a painting from a little kid. Haha
@@MyRealName No. I'm just open to the fact that musically, he is good at what he does and so are the guys in DT, so together they could make cool music. So many fans of this type of music are hell bent on having it their way or not. I am first a musician, so musically, it would be cool, probably, really cool. As with everything, this is my opinion. You are entitled to yours and we are supposed to be okay with our opinions being opposite to each other.
Mangini cracks me up lol seems like a positive funny guy. Amazing drumming chops love his work with DT. (All I've heard of his). I also love red wine Mike! Who doesn't?
James is so charismatic, he looks so powerful, a Prog Icon, I love him ( Sorry for his haters, but hey, try to sing the easiest DT song, and you'll see how stupid your opinion abt him is )
I don't think the interviewer is "dead inside" or "not care about the band". I think he's just professional - he asks the questions that are on the sheet, it's his job. You can hear his laugh after some of the members' answers.
Its very cool that such a talented guitar player lists Rush as his favorite band. You hear that all the time from bass players, but not that often from guitar players. Nice Job John!
I don't know how I missed this one. I can hardly believe it! John Myung giving actual answers in complete sentences! (Don't get me wrong. He's my favorite bassist of all time!) I'm currently working on his bass line for Pale Blue Dot.
Best Part: Petrucci jokes about the gym and the interviewer doesn't even laugh and just moves on to the next question and Petrucci says, "Hmmm." It was as if saying, "Hmmm....maybe this interviewer is a stuffed shirt."
Reminiscing and appreciating MM. Mixed feelings about his departure. The spirit carries on in DT with MP returning and hopefully that doesn't become a negative for all concerned. It would be perfect seeing the DT guys work with MM on side projects that would be different from, but like LTE, PSMS, etc. I hope future collaborations with MM would be welcomed right away and especially if negativity starts being generated because of the change. I wish the best for all involved and welcome MP back, though not as enthusiastically.
These interview questions sound like account recovery questions. It's almost like after this video you can recover the account to any dream theater member on any website.
Mangini is still a kid among these grown ups twisting things😀 I like how he has child like enthusiasm ! JP is the 20ish youngster - swig of bourbon, gym , cracks knuckles 😂 Others are all grown ups !
Mangini’s a PRO. Just hearing him talk about his technique alone is inspiring and he’s a really nice dude. Heck, all of these dudes are super cool and they know what they’re talking about and they are a loyal band, same for the rest of the proggers out there.
14:04 Ooooooh! THAT Korg! Thanks for clarifying, JR! ;) ...I was hoping that he was talking about the character from Thor: Ragnarok... Honestly I'd love to work for either of those Korgs!
Great walkthru and questions. Love to see that the masters of Prog (RUSH) got 2 shout outs from John P and John M for Rush - Hemispheres and Geddy Lee!! RUSH was the band that started it all for me and was my fave prog rock band. I started learning guitar because of Alex Lifeson. Now DT is my fave prog band. And because of Rush and DT my music collection has just exploded over the years. I listed to metal, jazs, blues, rock, prog, etc. Hey that big clock you guys have in that kitchenette is the EXACT same one we have here in our living room! haahhhaah Keep it up. cant wait for the new CD and to see you live here in So. Cal coming up soon...... long live DT and prog!!!
So as you all can finally see, mangini has no control over how the drums sound in the end, he can only do so much but the mixer and mastered have the final say so stop bickering about the drum sound and enjoy the music
Incorrect: continue complaining about drum sound (or the sound in overall), just do not blame Mr. Mangini, not his fault, I guess. It is hard to enjoy this overcompressed music produced these days, not just DT, but others too
@@talaniel exactly. Bands seem so afraid of natural non overly comppressed sounds. They do have the say at the end. It is hard to listen to. Very fatiging.
"Hi John"
*Immediately walks away*
Love that as soon as Myung starts being interviewed he puts down his bass and starts walking away. Classic Myung, he is the best.
Im still waiting for that colaboration with Dave Grohl
And opens the door to the room where Jordan is noodling around to drown out the interviewer 😂
Do you collect anything?
John Myung: "souls"
Shang Tsung
@@FuadiansyahSamsuri jajajajaja
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
LMAO
@@FuadiansyahSamsuri LOL he should totally be a character in the next Mortal Kombat game
And this was the most John Myung has spoke his whole career.
It pretty much is too.
Came here for this comment specifically. Now I can leave.
Maaan, that switch between Mike and John was really something! That plus the tone of the interviewer. The cringe is strong!
😂
Interviewer: what's the most you've ever spoken in an interview?
Myung: This.
Interviewer: "Do you practice every day?"
JM: *Putting Bass Back* "...Well I would be, if you'd leave me alone and stop trying to get me to speak..."
No there's another interview..but seeinh him talk is so not John Myung
This joke never gets old does it?
He was lucky Myung didn't kill him
Mangini just loves to live
I thought that Myung was about to flee from the interview to lock himself in the attic, but Jordan was there with his loud ipad, so he has no option but cornered outside and continue the interview lol
i feel sorry for him.
LOL
Exactly that! You can feel his pain.
Fuking windows tablet lol
I think that was more about reaching the others' space to make the whole interview. But good try buddy.
John Myung is over 50!!??? NO! He hasn't aged a day since 1995! Proof of vampires!
Where's the stone mask at?
Proof of a healthy soul.
Them Asians is got gud jeans
He looks older than what you see in this vid. He was at our kids' school function and I got to chat with him for about a half hour.
MusicTechHelpGuy Asian genetics!
I really appreciate how humble the members of Dream Theater seem, considering they’re all godlike musicians
Thomas House just bc they are good at their instruments doesn’t mean they have to be dicks
Lol
I love how JM heads upstairs and opens the door to drown out his speech. Even after so many years in such a prolific band, he’s still so private and shrouded in mystery.
That's the most I've ever heard John Myung speak. Ever.
Watch his Ernie Ball strings promo. He talks more during that
Mike Mangini has such a positive energy. It must be so delightful being around him ❤️
After all these years John is still such a great guy. He's so down to earth.
I've thought the same thing before! I saw him on the most recent G3 tour and, when speaking to the audience between songs, you would swear he was actually a little awkward, maybe even a bit uncomfortable!

"I'm the wimpiest wimp ever, I'm scared of bugs..."
I still wouldn't even think about trying to mess with him...
Which John?
@@FuadiansyahSamsuri John Cena
@@nikhilnbs geezz 😂😂😂😂
Lol, Myung. I like how he is starting going up the stairs while beeing interviewed, then opening a room where music plays, then just standing besides it. This is so random. ^^
Probably wanting Jordan (who was playing there) to bail him out.
It feels like the vibe of The Room
It is clear to me that the interview is obviously candid in questions, but the flow was clearly defined. Each member was quietly minding their own devices until their turn. Myung went up the stairs to pass the relay to Jordan. I don’t think it had much to do with getting away or the vibe of the room.
Rusty Shackelford Nice analysis
John Myung tried to escape 😂
and he managed to keep himself in a dark spot.
Foiled by GeoShred!
8:57 Myung: “Nope nope nope!”
Lol
is this a meme
You're the meme Rudy 😝
(Love your stuff btw
Cheers from France 🍻)
Robert Valdes not yet
Now it is
Why?
Bro, why are you here bro
Each time John Petrucci cracks his knuckles, there is an earthquake on the other side of the globe.
The Petrucci effect
Funny how he says that's his worst habit while drinking poison
Interestingly enough, in his guitar instructional DVD, he said not to crack knuckles as it's a bad habit.
Kenneth Hernandez I remember! Was surprised he actually does it, practice what you preach bro ;)
@@kennhern lol really, i loved that dvd taught me alot
btw the proper safe way to pop knuckles is to pull them
this is not an interview, this is most like security questions when you lose your email password
I’m surprised he didn’t ask them for their mother’s maiden name lol
Jordan didn't went to his prom because he was visited by a huge guy who told him "you are a wizard Jordan"
Dream Theater have definitely changed.... John Myung is talking!
He's awesome.
Rush's Hemisphere!!! My number one Rush album as well
Exactly. So great
. . . was all smiles when he said that. And whenever he mentions Rush. I also KNEW Jordan would say Keith Emerson (rest in peace). :)
- The wild John Myung used teleport... But it failed!
Nahuel Ramos 8:57 Myung is like “NOPE NOPE NOPE!”
His escape attempt was foiled by GeoShred though X-D
Nahuel Ramos hahahaha
I came here to watch Myung speak. I am still in shock and recovering slowly.
The best thing about this interview is..... it is so random ..... lol
lmao
Jordan missed the chance to say the best advice he ever got was to not worry and practice very hard and be assured that things were going to turn out fine, given to him at age 20 by a strange bearded man.
I had the exact same thought :D
That was my first thought too! I was gonna post it as a comment, but I thought I would have a look first!
Was thinking the same thing x^D
Is it just me or is Mangini the cutest/purest member? Like he just seems so happy and joyful about his answers, it reminds me of a little kid showing his parents a coloring he did during art class. I love it.
Deathless [Prog] he is so cute ^^
Steve Harris, Geddy Lee, and Chris Squire, that's a damn fine set of influences.
Yes Yes ! I was hoping for a video like this ! Almost makes up for no in-studio DVD for the last 5 albums.
Man, right? I love the Systematic Chaos bonus DVD so much, I've been bitter ever since then that they didn't keep doing anything like that.
Eh, in the age of RUclips to we really need in studio DVD’s? Don’t get me wrong, I love the in studio footage and the systematic chaos video, but it seems like the delivery method will be online for most people going forward. Or am I unaware of a huge market for behind the scenes dvd sales?
The Dream Theater guys are so incredibly nice and welcoming even when (sort of) put on the spot. Great to see great musicians and personalities!
*WHAT A SHAME*
Myung, the Silent Man. The best Running Gack in Music History. To see him on an conversation more than 2min. Never thought that this will happen some day. It is really a gift of Heaven xD I love it :D
"Yeh."

That George Carlin pic is marvelous.
they make myung talks, omfg!
I got to meet Jordan Rudis in 2013 at a guitar show in Austin Texas, really nice guy took the time to talk to me even took a selfie with me, and he even took a selfie with my niece and gave her an autograph awesome musician and a class act dream theater rocks
this interview was life lesson , good job guys.
btw that opening door sound is such a horror movie.
Rick Sanchez I made the mistake of assuming it would be quiet like their other interviews so I turned up my headphones before watching. Needless to say, I regretted my decision
"hey Mike how are you?" "Twisting things"
"A cup of tea with Jimmy Hendrix" Jordan Rudess.
Paris Guitar Foundation - It’s Jimi. Come on, people!!
Thought Myung was heading upstairs to jump
He was thinking about it ... the whole time!
Lol wtf
People made comments about the interviewer but I love how it’s streamlined and efficient. Most questions over time lol.
Wooww ! It's completely video . Thank you for sharing 😍👏
I'm Moroccan, DT is my favorite band of all time! James if you get the chance to visit Morocco, let me be your guide, it will be with great pleasure! JP is one of my favorite guitar inspiration.
Thank you for the most awkward interview I've ever seen.
"Hi there, welcome to my house" - "WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE CAT?!?!", "Ehhhh......."
Gotta love how Mangini just jumps right in and does his interview without seemingly getting annoyed.
Bourbon in a papermug? That´s rock´n roll!!
No, only direct from the bottle🤘😉
John Myung fled away.... Oh no. Wait! Hahahaha
He wanted to!!! LOL
He trapped himself!
John Myung is not a conversationalist. I got to chat with him for about a half an hour at our kids' school function and it felt like I was trying to have a conversation with a 15-year-old.
@@lt.frankdrebin3317 Yeah! I met the guys after a concert. JM is a really cool guy, and believe or not, he smiled after receiving a painting from a little kid. Haha
I was waiting for him to jump off the balcony hahaha
Well, can you imagine a DT album with Dave Grohl's vocals? Didn't expect Myung to answer that. That would be nice to see.
OR, better yet, vocals, guitar and drumming! He's great at all 3.
He’s really annoying so absolutely would not want to ever hear that.
@@solitaryg are you drunk?

Dream theater singed parts are quite easy.
Love me some JLB
Yeah, it’s such a shame that his voice has fallen off so much
@@berkefiliz3410 If you sound like a machine then I want you to get the nobel peace prize
ik its a joke btw
i went to the paladium in feb 2016 to see DT.and guess what was next door.A five guys.my fav band and fav burger in one night, perfect.
And the band consisted of five guys. XD
This interviewer has the perfect style for hosting Family Feud. Top ten answers on the board!
I don't think the interviewer is "dead inside" or "not care about the band". I think he's just professional - he asks the questions that are on the sheet, it's his job. You can hear his laugh after some of the members' answers.

John Myung tried to escape the interviewer... Unsuccessfully!
1:26
One does not simply ask what is a musician's all-time favorite album.
Dream Theater - the most wholesome metal band in the world lol
Bit of a simplification just calling them a metal band :)
What about scale the summit?
@@deasnutz4ever haha idd
Interviewer: Your favorite burger place?
John: Five Guys.
My man there!
I love the dream theater.
Great and funny interview. Dream Theater did a great job in Distance Over Time, and it is always nice to know more about each member of the band.
Jordan and I both saw The Who for their first concert! That's awesome!!!
Greatest studio
Im in Africa and we've only seen GnR live once
It be great to have dream theatre over
James wants to go to morocco :D thats nice to hear
Always nice to see my boys keeping it real and doing awesome.
I was hoping he’d say Vinnie Moore! Time Odyssey ruled!
I don't know how I missed this one. I can hardly believe it! John Myung giving actual answers in complete sentences! (Don't get me wrong. He's my favorite bassist of all time!) I'm currently working on his bass line for Pale Blue Dot.
Nice interview, Jhon Myung tring to excape all time , thats its funny ajajjajaja.
4:40 I totally lost myself laughing! "I'm Canadian", I don't know why that answer made me laugh so hard XD
" a dead pool" labrie said 🤣🤣🤣
I really Love much ❤️this group 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
The best section of the interview with the most charismatic member of DT: JRudess. He always enjoys EVERYTHING
I'm glad to know JP cracks his knuckles i do too and hate .
Good lord, the interviewer is tense. Give him some of your booze JP!
I love Rudess interview. He is always nice attitude 👍
Mike Po yeaa

DREAM THEATER is Awesome!
I saw Jordan playing this blues in your IPad in Brazil last month. The quality and criativity are amazing
What do you still have from your childhood?
*My sense of wonder* -John Petrucci
That's why they're so successful
Vintage vibe from this. Thanks for the video!
These interview questions sound like account recovery questions. It's almost like after this video you can recover the account to any dream theater member on any website.
Happy birthday, John Myung! You are great! Love you!
Mangini is still a kid among these grown ups twisting things😀 I like how he has child like enthusiasm ! JP is the 20ish youngster - swig of bourbon, gym , cracks knuckles 😂 Others are all grown ups !

JM: I collect silence, please leave here.
Instead of saying "I used to be really good at soccer", he says "I used to be really into that". Small shift but so much more humble.
I'm happy DT are with INSIDEOUT music label.
I think they are in good hands.
Can't wait for the 5.1 mix of the new album. :)
8:55 - John Myung is like "Oh fuck, here come the stupid questions" (Tries to walk off).
John Myung is like an alien stranded on Earth,but he lost his foton weapon to kill everyone so he had to find a day job to survive.
I'm excited for this album!
Me to😊
Very cool. Can't wait to get my grubby little paws on the new album! Jordan, you rule dude!
john myung all great answers you kill it brother!!!! all of you guys are brilliant thanks for the killer music!!!!
14:04 Ooooooh! THAT Korg! Thanks for clarifying, JR! ;)
...I was hoping that he was talking about the character from Thor: Ragnarok... Honestly I'd love to work for either of those Korgs!
most wholesome DT interview
Imagine a random guy with a camera walks up to you and start asking questions lmao
I always thought that I heard a rush inspiration in their songs! Don't know what it is, it just kind of reminds me of rush.
