- I got the awesome opportunity to interview John Petrucci of Dream Theater. I got to ask him many questions, including his thoughts on fans reaction to Mangini v. Portnoy. Their new album, Distance Over Time releases February 22 and they'll be on tour in 2019.

You heard it yourself. I'm unofficially and exaggeratedly John Petrucci's 2nd favorite guitar player. You may refer to me as "sir snob" from now on.
Yes, Knight Sir Snob.
Become The Knight Please react to Tame Impala 🔥🔥✌🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼
Did you get awarded with a 2019 Majesty as a condecoration
I'm so happy for you, Mike!!! This is such a great milestone for you and I'm happy to have been a part of it.
Evening Sir Snob, well done
Mike is trying so hard not to fangirl.
Alonso Rojas too late
I kinda hate Mike right now.
S. D. Why
@Fritz, Jail-us-see. Basically I'm as close to being jealous as I've ever been ☹️ but deep deep deeeeeeep down (somewhere) I'm happy for him.
Not sure if it's just me but he frequently looks on the verge of tears. Can't say I blame him.
Petrucci : Hey mike
Mike : rock n' roll ... rock n' roll man
"What do you do?"
""Try not to suck on guitar."
Respect level 10000%
He tries too hard. I think trying less would've been much better.
So I was interviewed by Mike, and Mike interviewed John Petrucci. So therefore, I've talked to John Petrucci.
By that logic, please henceforth refer to me as Mr. President.
Makes sense to me
@@blacksaltscotland I am so sorry you had to talk to the human cheeto
You used maths in a very good way sir.
@@Elchinodiabolero as if that's a bad thing. I want to know how huge the wall will be. Will it be great? Will it be the best wall?
Mike is like a 13 year old girl talking to Justin Bieber.
No, .... A TIPSY 13 year old girl interviewing Justin Bieber.
Nevermind shred wars, we need Petrucci in a Kmac2021 video.
Oh my God yes, that would be so awesome. I can't stop laughing just thinking about it xD
Omg this has to happen😂
extreme guitar tep
Wowowowowowowow
Mike's face when he finds out Petrucci's nephew is in Periphery! XD 11:41
I know right! Like totally floored 😂😂😂
funny how he didn't know about that in spite of being a "prog snob", you'd think he's aware of many proggy things haha, regardless that reaction was priceless! now i'm following you even harder than before! so awesome!
John Petrucci was how i got into Periphery, I stumbled upon the video where John was talking with Jake and I have been jamming to periphery since.
I bet if he said his nephew worked/works with Steve Vai he'd probably cum in his pants (not saying that's a bad thing)
Petrucci's beard is longer than your whole head, Mike.
😂
Guitarist talks with John Petrucci, they start with talking about Whiskey 😂
Damn right. And end it with bbq.
@@BecomeTheKnight obviously I'm biased but if you're willing to wait in line for hours Franklin's BBQ in Austin really does live up to the hype
Austin BBQ IS MAH SHIT
well Bourbon, rather then Scotch or Irish
Can someone hear Mike scream inside himself 😂
10 bucks says that Mike acted like a Happy Japanese school girl after the John Petrucci interview.
John Petrucci: Honestly my favorite solo of all time has to be John Fruciante’s in Scar Tissue
Mike:....
*Mike has left the server*
haha I remember Mike talking about that solo
That honestly IS an amazing solo. Minimal notes, MAXIMUM FEEL. john frusciante is great.
JThrashYT It really isn’t an amazing solo. I wouldn’t even consider it a solo, it’s closer to a bridge or just another part of the song. It serves the song fantastically, but if you call it a solo, then it’s meh.
@@mustacheman4476 the outro is definitely a solo and it's amazing to my ears.
I'm gonna have to go with my Mustache Man here. With no disrespect to RHCP.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO wait.......are you blushing??? No I think it's the wine. Good job!
That's the alcohol I swear!!
Become The Knight that's what I thought. I'm proud of ya, kid!🤗
How many times did you wet yourself during the interview?
probably not enough xD
Lol
How many times? You say that as if he stopped wetting himself at any point.
I know I wouldn't.
@@Xeroforte You guys crack me up. Thank you for making me laugh! Love it!
@@IvanZagarovArchive q, ivan4o
Mike, I'm shocked you heard anything he said by the way you get lost in his eyes every time he speaks.
#fuckyouben
Become The Knight Love ya boo.
Mad love my friend
Woot it's Ben! Good catch and miss ya on SSF😎
@@Laros82 Miss yall too! Stay classy.
People that I need to hug before I die:
1. John Petrucci
That's it.
Well, knowing John's size, he'd probably bear hug you instead :P.
What about your mom or dad
@@staystrongjoseph isn't about 1 minute to die or something, it's a achievement hahaha
@@iscarvalho haha i know man just kidding around
Rock on \m/
I would hug: John Petrucci, John Myung, Jordan Rudess, Mike Portnoy, Mike Mangini but for some strange reason I would just shake hands with James LaBrie 🤔
Now Steve Wilson, Mikael Åkerfeldt or Steve Vai ... and your world would be complete
Steven* haha
steven wilson i think probably is too snobby, there's much interviews when he talks a bit let's say too much.. close minded about some things too.
Gabriel Yeah, It’s honestly because he’s super smart though. A lot of people like that come off that way
Add satriani in there too
Mike would have a heart attack if Steve Vai was on this.
Is it me or John looks like a hairy Rick Beato?
Or a more clean cut Rick Rubin.
Yes hairy Beato
An interview with Rick Beato would be awesome!
Rick Beato used to have a similar beard himself too!
It's the Italian blood
"Rock and roll, rock and roll man"
@NoiseFeedMusic considering how old Petrucci is, it fits.
@NoiseFeedMusic would you prefer that he says "bitchin'" whenever he hears something cool?
I think John Petrucci looks like an old testament prophet. I would not be surprised if he could call down a pillar of fire from the sky by just playing the right arpeggios.
Cody Anderson so true lmao
So lets be honest, Mike's mini music snob got very... very excited
Lmao!!! That euphemism is amazing
lol
"rock and roll man" -Mike
Mikeal Akerfeldt next please!
Yes
Å
Yes
Good call. Akerfeldt is very dry and funny so it’s going to be be hilarious
Fuck yeah , mikael is so fucking funny and cool it'd be very exciting to watch
Holy shit, now we are just missing the guy from opeth
David Garcia Mikael Åkerfeldt
@Disobedient Lettuce lol yes
He'd lose his mind
And Steve Vai
And me aka best guitar snob ever
Gordon Ramsay on Hot Ones and John Petrucci here...great day for some RUclips channels
Davide Manfro lmaooo i just finished watching that then came here
Bro I was just thinking that you get a like
Hahahaha saaame i just finished watching this interview and was going straight to hot ones lol
YES
Yes! Dude yes!!!
Mike laughs like this only when interviewing John Petrucci and hitting on chicks.
3+ people got here by accident and heard of Dream Theater for the first time. They put on some Dream Theater, got dizzy from the odd time signatures and hit Dislike instead of Like by mistake.
Nah it's the jealous people
Nice. So now you can say this when you are with your buddies:
"so I was talking to John Petrucci the other night..."
I like the part where Mike was talking about Mike replacing Mike
This guy makes amazing bbq chicken (I hear he’s also a fair guitar player).
He's okay
@@olivierpeartnoy he's average at best, if he practices enough he might be able to be like the greats like lil wayne
@@nemexgamer0462 are you insane? Not even a lifetime of practice can make you reach that level. Lil wayne is natural talent
I dare anyone to try and hate John . Potentially the best living guitarist is this humble. Absolute great person
I like how John Petrucci set up his camera so that his beard is in the center and his entire face doesn't even fit. Really tells you what his priorities are.
*THIS is Officially the closest I've ever been to being a jealous person!*
Love how you touched on more than just music. It's like you made the god seem almost human. You can breathe now, man.
TOP 10 ANIME CROSSOVERS
I was learning for exam in physics while lisening to DT pull me under. Then, exacly when ending solo started, I got notification about this video. No more physics for 22 min.
I feel you. I have maths tomorrow, but the interview takes priority
@@philippopescu7563 4sure
@@caseymather1957 not gonna pass mine exam :)...:(
Status update. I failed my exam :) :( :|
I like how JP's beard is centered in the frame... as it should be.
Not dream theater fan but mike fan so great joy in watching mike meet his heroes
Thou glass prison is great
I hope this video gets views for mikes sake
You best fucking check out Metropolis Pt. 2 & Images and Words or I'm gonna linch you.
@@SamBennett9910 i have checkd metropolis p2 was too fancy for mee the other song ill check
@@SamBennett9910 metropolis pt2 i fucking hate it
First Rick Beato with Synyster Gates and now this... Great week
@NoiseFeedMusic you should give them a listen, I love them even as much as I love Dream Theater
John Petrucci feat Kmac doing limp bizkit cover in the style of Frank Zappa....pls?
Ladies and gentlemen, Mike has just experienced a “Wet Dream” Theater
I’m just gonna guess
John: says absolutely anything
Mike: yes you are 100% correct, I totally agree, that’s so funny, you’re so funny, hahaha, you’re so inspirational, I love you, haha☺️
Holy Shit = Says Everyone Here.
Mike if I was in your place I would be fangirling like an idiot.
This is really an awesome milestone for you and I'm glad! Hopefully, you will have more guests like John Petrucci :D.
Mike is slowly working his way into the band. They can make a TV show about it. A Snob in the Theatre.
The attacks on Mangini are just BS after 9 years, the guy is doing great with Dream Theater. He does what great drummers do, He does what is best for the song, and I love how heavy of a hitter He is.
True. I really like his performance in The Astonishing and the view from the top of the world
All Memes and Jokes aside, this is really awesome. Never meet your Heroes they say but it's such a Joy to see what a cool Dude Petrucci really is. Also, you did a good Job not freaking out, Mike. Great Interview !
Never knew Mike Bowen of periphery was petruccis nephew. Nice to know he's not in John's shadow or anything that usually happens with musicians
*Jake Bowen
Well, he got a few lessons, but he did go on his own way after, further redifining progressive metal in the modern age.
"What is your favorite guitarist besides Steve Morse?"
"You."
You must have melted inside. lol
Made a fanboy's dreams come true lol
@@BecomeTheKnight are they wet dreams?
I discovered this channel through his fine bros react and now I'm blown away by all the other stuff he puts out. I'm insanely happy for him getting to interview a Dream Theater member.
Holy smokes! You intervewed JP! Who is next?
Kris Dimitrov Obviously Cliff burton aka The bus guy
Ernst Vay Hate to burst your bubble, bro. He’s been dead for years!
Brandon Brindle you didnt get it
Cardi B
@@BrandonBrindle92 w/rooooosh
Dude, I cannot believe you got the opportunity to interview the man himself! Congratulations, brother! Horns up to you and JP!!! \m/
To Petrucci's face: "Yeah Steve Vai is my number one" 😂😂
You can see Mike smiling throughout this whole interview and it's so great. So happy for you man!
*John, Can we take 5? I need to change underwear* 😂
OHSHIT!! He knows of Jared and Shred Wars and the likes?? He enters the scene it's game over.
Listening to it right now.
Am I only one who finds Mike's glass really funny? XD
20:12 he's talking about Big Kev's BBQ in White Lake, NY. And yes its incredible. I used to live up there. It's on the way to Bethel Woods, the site of the original Woodstock festival. Great interview.
This was phenomenal! One of if not the greatest interview I’ve seen with him to date! Like two metal heads just casually bullshitting with great questions. Earned a sub today man, fantastic job!
Appreciate that man 🤘
Such a great interview! Thank you for this. 🤘🏽💜
that was so lovely, thank you Mike!
That's awesome!! Congrats Mike!
30 seconds in and I can already tell this will be my favorite video from you Mike!
Mikael Akerfeldt and Michael Romeo and our prog bases will be covered haha
You've come so far. Congrats Mike.
Really proud of you mike! I hope this really gives your channel a boost
Congrats on setting this up man

Genuinely happy for you. This was awesome.
That's freakin awesome, Mike! Great interview. JP is definitely the Dude of dudes!
NO WAY! Thank you for sharing :D
chocked on my coffee when i saw the title, awesome!
This was awesome to watch! Ha man, Mike, you must've had a great time with this. Sounded like you did.
This was a great interview, asked some really good questions, you weren't afraid to ask the BIG questions, props!
Great you got Pretucci for an interview. Looking forward to see more like that. Keep up the good work!
Awesome interview, you asked great questions and nothing ever seemed awkward. Mike, your really good at what you do, keep it up man. Rock on!
This is an awesome conversation/interview. Really good job, man.
awww... Your eyes during this interview. Pure happiness
That was cool to watch.
Congrats Mike!
I absolutely loved the interview!
This is the best rock/metal interview I have ever seen. Just a nice chat getting to know the personal side of the musicians we admire. Spot on, Mike.
That's so cool! Proud of you Mike, wish I could converse with the soothing Petrucci...
Had to say man I’m so happy for you, to build up your channel from to the point where you can talk to one of your guitarist idols to an audience this size, amazing imo. Rock on man🤘
What an awesome interview! It's great to see Mr. Petrucci being so simple and generous to have a normal conversation with you! And great questions btw! It's seriously every single question that all the DT fans have in their minds! Keep it up Mike with your great contents! much love from Lebanon \m/
Great interview along with really good questions, some which others wouldn’t have the balls to ask, and JP replied perfectly. Thank you
John is such a humble man. Would love to meet him again. Amazing interview!
Thank you for talking about Mangini! I was going to ask you about him in the next Ask a Music Snob, but it's so much better when John Petrucci gives his own thoughts as well. Thank you!
Nice video man!!
And the way you asked him about the drummers was great
Petrucci is such a nice guy
Congrats on the interview Mike. It was very, very good. John is such a pleasant and humble guy.
Damir,
LToC
You sir are a king!!!
So cool of you to give upcoming artists some much needed exposure
So excited for you bro, John is the lifeblood of DT.
I was waiting for this all day yesterday and I’m so impressed! Mike is officially the happiest interviewer in the history of music lol. JP is my favorite guitarist and that beard is majestic as always. Man the guy is charming! Mike, you lucky dog, great job!
