Marco was my favorite drummer from the audition video. I'm looking forward to listening to his collaborations with the band members. I think it will be amazing!
Entiendo que ya desde el principio Marco no tenia un interes en entrar en DT, fue un favor a Jordan para llenar la audicion con otro gran nombre. Yo como muchos tambien fue mi baterista favorito de esa audicion, creo que al final las decisiones fueron las correctas para todos.
He's not talking about turning down the gig he initially turned down doing THE AUDITION. You don't tell them that you're not a fan and don't know them that much AFTER you audition. 🤣
It's Michael LaPres LOL! That was the original description of this video (someone posted a sideways version of this video and I fixed it), plus I have heard that a lot thru the years...you may be correct.
@@VincePalamaraJFK I think on the audition documentary one of the guys described how they had to talk him into it. So he does it and shows up in a Cookie monster t-shirt... Not only was he not really playing the part being kind of quirky he made a mistake that Mangini didn't. When mangini was done they said "that WAS dream theater." Marco did all right but he didn't get that kind of applause... So whoever thinks they offered the job to him definitely wasn't paying attention.

It seems his story is different from his video during the audition.

You win--I now agree with you. I changed the description to "Marco Minnemann on his Dream Theater audition." Thanks!
@@VincePalamaraJFK Cool cuz I was having an aneurysm over here. Or something 🤣
@@michaell.445 hahaha!!!
Marco fue el elegido pero no aceptó, eso es estar en un nivel muy alto
