I honestly think Paul has emotional or depression issues. He catches a lot of shit from the internet too, and that can't help matters. I have a buddy who literally has hair just like that, and it's because he can't be bothered to care about almost anything due to his mental problems.
This was an amazing video...The questions asked by Paul were very practical and JP gave the perfect answers to them..Not too long not too short... Wonderful insight into how he constructs riffs and how the whole band works together... One thing I would like to point out is from 12:35 he tells you why he used Alternate picking because after 16 notes you end up on a downstroke again...Not many virtuoso guitarists can Breakdown what they are doing and explain it to us like that...I mean if you asked Yngwie the same thing he would rip through the riff but he wouldn't be able to explain it to you.. Nothing against Yngwie but JP is one of the very few guitarists who has a wonderful blend of natural talent and intellectual ability which really helps many guitarists like me who are learning in a practical way..I learn something from every JP lesson
john petrucci is truly music scientist.. paul riario is always be my favorite guitarist, and he asks questions we need to ask, and john just nailed it.. btw paul's hair looks like songoku's and i love it.
Great album. I love hearing people like JP and Paul gilbert etc talk about music. Their knowledge of their craft blows me away and makes me wish i'd spent more time when I was younger learning it!.
Chazite's Customs Corner the riff keeps running the same finger movement or motion over and over ... how is that not what he said? You fucking moron ...
Great questions asked... Why did you choose the tuning. I always wondered that. Like they got two songs in the entire catalog in Eb. Really makes it annoying for touring. Also, liked how was the lick constructed. That cminor to cmajor caught my ear right away as a unique choice.
I gotta say, when JP explains everything ... "And this is how I make the statue of liberty disappear..." how about a cooler explanation? "I was doing shrooms with the wife and..."
What I heard Pretrucci say: "You need more theory.. honestly, there's no way around it.. you can't practice your way into knowing it, you have to actually study it.. ok dude?" Ok Mr. Petrucci, thanks for the advise.. I will.
I like how the interviewer keeps injecting his own analysis like he's on the same level with John. Then John, because he's a nice guy, nods his head and agrees as to not be rude, and then the interviewer takes that as confirmation that he's on the same level.... He's not.
Yeah, but still he adds his non-John/semi-god status point of view to the video review which is a interesting conversation/analysis average gate for all us other non-John/semi-god status viewers to appreciate the video from, idk man doesn't seem so much like Paul thinks he's out there, but more like he simply "runs" the show
@@Slashings Maybe it's more his attitude and the little sense of arrogance that I'm getting from him that's making me say that... I don't know.. I could be wrong and probably am, sometimes you see a person one way but after you get to understand who they are you end up completely wrong. Hard telling..
John Petrucci is my biggest influence in guitar playing. I look forward to to attending Dream Theater concert and seeing him playing on stage in Dallas on 4/29. I have covered several Dream Theater songs on my guitar and published on my RUclips channel. You can check them out if you are interested.
"So tell me, how does one make music?" - "Here's what I do" - *"HM"* - "I pick up a" - *"YEAH"* - "guitar and start playing" - *"YES"* - "what I" - *"HM"* - "feel like." - "But how do you play notes that sound good?" - "Well, the secret" - *"YES"* - "is to have a" - *"RIGHT"* - "clue what you're doing."
Always wonder how he chooses which tuning for specific song. Now I know (kinda). I thought he based the tuning on Labrie vocal range to not strain him. It’s just ‘feel’ and ‘tone’. Good job Paul good interview
He did a decent job, but John is such a down to earth guy, he will answer any question in a way that makes sense of it. And there is no "his level". When you become an institution at what you do, you answer to no standards.
It's a bit amazing to me the most simplest song on the album has all that crazy stuff in it, that all the haters, who don't even play an instrument, bitch about that Mangini is a bar song drummer . . .
The new album is finally out....listened to it again and again....my favourite is "barstool warrior"...love the lyrics...the whole song is what i in person define as "the REAL dream theater!" Sorry to say that the rest of the album doesn't touch me as quick as "images and words" did back in 1992 .... seems to me that they get tired of creating something "new"....... it's all bout how heavyer ...dark and mightier can we get since the last album...... I miss the sparkling of images...... Anyway...once again dream theater is back!!!!and that counts .... the heavier jp grows....the heavier dt sounds😬
I think the part about john petrucci I admire the most is how basic the structure of the song, yet how beautifully he utilizes the basic composition. I think it was mozart who just wrote a composition with the 1 chord in different inversions, yet it doesnt sound like it. It's genious
Jesus discussing metal guitar with Sonic, now i've seen everything.
What kind of friends does Paul have?? Not one of them has had the courtesy to talk to him about his hair.
His hair is like that because he's balding and he thinks this hairstyle hides it. Dude needs to accept that nobody's gonna judge his bald head.
I honestly think Paul has emotional or depression issues. He catches a lot of shit from the internet too, and that can't help matters. I have a buddy who literally has hair just like that, and it's because he can't be bothered to care about almost anything due to his mental problems.
By the way, i think they just interest to talk about the music, not hair,,😄
Who's paul??
"Nightmare to Remember" (black clouds & silver linings) was also done on a "C" baritone tuning.. LOVED it.. thanks JP.. really enlightening..
he holds it almost like a classical guitarist...brings a lot of agility..
Dude’s hair is in drop Z
LMFAO
Dude, I almost spit out my wine!!!!
Mind Sculpture damn you guys 👍😂😂😂😂👍
Okay I chuckled a bit too hard on that one.
@@albertplaysguitar you mean beer?
Clicked for the music, stayed for the hair
Best one so far hahahahaha
Damn . . . LOL !
Involved in infinite hair discussions
Priceless!!
Sonic Hedgehog interviews John Petrucci
Raptor!!!!
Neth BT 😂😂😂
Michael J. Fox
He's the pinguin from gotham!
When the hair catches more comments than a new Dream Theater riff...
Oh btw, don't cut your hair by yourself, it shows 😂
5% commented on Dream Theater's new album
95% commented on Sonic the hedgehog's hair
Does your comment count for both of them?
Blackest Skyline .1% comments to say your maganda 😝
Lol!
When you gotta wake up at 6:00 and interview John Petrucci at 6:10.
6:00 on a Shredmas morning
@@DoublePdalJesusMetal I see what you did 👍
After being out til 4 a.m. drinking with your buddies.
@@DoublePdalJesusMetal I know all about the honor of god Joe!
I'm am dying 🤣🤣
John Petrucci mentioning Tool.
Liked and Subscribed.
That guys hair looks like my playing sounds.
Thank you for the laughs!
DB1982 and also like his own playing sounds
It can't be THAT bad...
@@h4mp3l you're right. Id have to play it with my feet to sound that bad.
I felt this in a personal level
Forgot to do your hair before the interveiw I see...
Lol, he looks like a raptor!
Pierce Pluenneke look stupid as fuck if you ask me.
And this john guy even forgot to shave,looks like hobo to me,i mean who does he think he is?
"After the break dancing spin championship, I'm going to the studio to interview Petrucci".
John Petrucci is an absolute legend and in the top 5 guitarist alive today.
@toni lindholm I wonder, just tell me your top 3
@toni lindholm you forgot Nick Johnas one of my best
@toni lindholm lol... Biggest JP fan here gets what you're saying.
Kirk Hammett doesn't really fit here he used to be quite good actually
@toni lindholm Meh...
My comment has nothing to do with anybody's hair.
The irony, is that it does.
I like baby eagles though
Lies
Loved the new album! Petrucci is a beast!
"this man over here needs no introduction" proceeds to introduce XD
Oops???
Bwahahaha!
John's also the man behind dream theater and it's his new album. He hired some pretty good musicians though.
This was an amazing video...The questions asked by Paul were very practical and JP gave the perfect answers to them..Not too long not too short... Wonderful insight into how he constructs riffs and how the whole band works together...

Glad to see JP did so much marketing for this album. So much material today
I recommend not sleeping in a ditch
Nah man ain't no ditch do _that_ to your hair...
Advice taken under consideration!!!🤫
Looks like that family of rats is still living in Paul’s hair. Maybe time to kick them out. 🤨
My main in Super Smash Bros. is Paul Riario, I mean Falco
Bwahahaha!

Paul looks homeless.
Hahaha...
Paul @4:26 : "It's a constant motion". Hmmmm
Chazite's Customs Corner Haha, I was wondering if anyone had caught that.
Chazite's Customs Corner ~~Traveling through both space and time
(Out of body, out of mind)
Out of control, my wheels in constant motion~~
Chazite's Customs Corner the riff keeps running the same finger movement or motion over and over ... how is that not what he said? You fucking moron ...

Paul's hair is what happens when you fix the back of your hair while looking forward into the mirror.
Fact 5 I woke my baby up laughing so hard. 😂😂😂 no ReGERTS 😂😂👍
The transformation from John Petrucci to Lee Sklar is almost complete.
Nicholas Totoro LOL
Best comment. You win! 🏆
His hair is an inspiration...haters gonna hate.
Is Paul physically trying to become a parrot?
*John plays a simple riff*
NOW THAT'S INTRICATE!!!
I thought this the entire time lol
10% of komments about majesty of JP, 90% - Paul looks like...
PJ fo ytsejam
When you at barber and earthquake coming 😆
god... his hair looks so 1990.
Adem Obey For what it’s worth, John’s beard is precisely one century earlier.
That tone maaan, THAT TONEEEEE!
What I heard Pretrucci say: "You need more theory.. honestly, there's no way around it.. you can't practice your way into knowing it, you have to actually study it.. ok dude?" Ok Mr. Petrucci, thanks for the advise.. I will.
Paul uses hair product...just doesn't style after he mushes it through his hair. Is messy a style?
Bed head looks like he just woke up to play video games and eat fruit loops, not conduct a interview
John Petrucci's presence created a magnetic field that has completely ruined hair within a certain radius around him.
LOL !
One of the best guitarist ever

@@Slashings speak for yourself - i happen to be #verysmart and would easily ascend to God status like Petrucci... if i could be bothered.

New album is great.
Could we get Kirk Hammett on here so he could explain to us the intricacies of the wah pedal?

That poor man is getting FuCkEd UP in the comments section for his hair lol.
"So tell me, how does one make music?" - "Here's what I do" - *"HM"* - "I pick up a" - *"YEAH"* - "guitar and start playing" - *"YES"* - "what I" - *"HM"* - "feel like."

Unless you're Penguin (Gotham) there is literally no excuse for that hair.
Haply to learn that theory comes after. Always knew or hoped it was the case, but happy to hear John say it. Music comes from the heart
Standard C Paul, NOT ‘Drop C’. Why do so many people confuse these terms?!?!
Always wonder how he chooses which tuning for specific song. Now I know (kinda). I thought he based the tuning on Labrie vocal range to not strain him. It’s just ‘feel’ and ‘tone’. Good job Paul good interview
Very inspiring and educational. Please keep it coming! :D
The guy doing the interview is barely adding anything to the convo, John corrects him and redirects like the pro he is 😏
Yeah but his hair added so much to the video and comments section.
your hair doesn't make you more metal.. WTF! Going to listen to A Change of Seasons...
where's the part 2?
,, it's a contant motion...''
I see what you did there. Surprised John didn't caught that :D
Everyone gives Paul a lot of shit but he did a good job interviewing Petrucci, that’s got to be intimidating to try and speak on his level
Ehhhhh, he's trying a bit too hard. But granted, JP isn't a whatever guitarist that you'd ask stupid questions!
He did a decent job, but John is such a down to earth guy, he will answer any question in a way that makes sense of it. And there is no "his level". When you become an institution at what you do, you answer to no standards.
He’s a subtle genius.🙏🏻🤟🏻
It's a bit amazing to me the most simplest song on the album has all that crazy stuff in it, that all the haters, who don't even play an instrument, bitch about that Mangini is a bar song drummer . . .
lol a bar song drummer? He was a professor at MIT
4:25 nice reference
great interview...congrats.
Holy shit! Paul still looks like he has not aged
pineapple doesn't belong on hair btw! Or pizza.
Petrucci.. seems like a very cool humble guy as well as a legendary monster musician..
I'm just waiting for the Barstool Warrior segment of this series.
Best song on the album to me
The way your hair stands up like that makes me want to take you to the barber 💈
John Petrucci is God
I swear, everytime I watch a new interview on the new album it makes me like it even more. What is this magic.
JOHN IS TRULY AN AMAZING GUITAR PLAYER
John Petrucci is an absolute legend!
LOL ! I know I'm Spoiled !
"JPs coming in to talk about the new album" - "Shit, how can I compete with that glorious beard?... wait,I know!"
Great stuff from JP as always. You can tell he was a teacher, he's excellent at breakig things down and explaining on simple terms.
There’s something about Paul.
Thank you John what a phenomenal guitar player and cool man you are 👍

@@rumpledxkn i give a f*** 'bout paul's hair😂

On his hair. Capo your hair, Paul.
Have you guys noticed that both Petrucci and Rudess sound the same when they speak?
And portnoy
4:23 - John missed Paul's joke there... XD
Somebody didn't see the new
Steve Terreberry video Nux B-3 "Shower Time."

Does that hairdo Djent?

Did this guy pay someone to do his hair like that? HS
And I love the new album
Penguin from Gotham interviews John Petrucci, enjoy.
John Legend!!!!
Paul's hair never ceases to crack me up! LOL
Dude really said 'RIFT' instead of 'Riff' at 9:25....
Looks like he overslept and didn't have time to do his hair
No moose zone
He look like Wizard
Just let me see those "At Wit's End" beginning riffs. Awesome
WTF is with this guy's hair? 😳
This should be a tutorial on how to get epic "bed-head".....
Thanks for the ProTwelled, loudness-maximized, hyper-compressed noise at the beginning of the video.
