Here's another proof that Dream Theater was mostly Mike Portnoy's ideas and concept. He's very friendly and passionate about his work. I met him back in 2004 in a local drum store, where he graciously offered to sign my Sabian Hand Hammered Raw Bell Dry Ride cymbal, that I had just bought. A very cool guy.
@@tromboneman4517 Maybe "dismissive" was too strong a word. I guess I felt that way because Rod was so opposite. I told him I caught his drum stick at the show at the 930 Club, so I needed another one. And wouldn't you know it, when his set was done, he looked right at me and threw a stick towards me, but someone else caught it. He was so cool! He even shrugged as if to say, "I tried my best!"
Things I regret in life: 1. Never having the opportunity of eating a fried Twinkie. (before the Hostess company shuts-down) 2. Seeing Mike Portnoy with Dream Theater live.
ich war da als das video gedreht wurde....sau geil....war es...spirit carries on im soundcheck war schon geil...ich sitz hinten auf der tribüne als mike sich abbabbelt
Not at all. John Myung is just very laid back, quiet. Let's his bass playing do the talking. But anyone who knows about him usually recognizes his ridiculous skills.. :D
NO ONE IN DREAM THEATER IS UNDERRATED,have a quick look at the meaning of the word. once you understand the meaning,stop misusing the fucking word. underrated=to underestimate the extent, value, or importance of (someone or something).
Mike Mangini is a GREAT player. But if you look, He has TWICE as much stuff in LESS SPACE. He has like 5 or 6 bass drums in his cage (one electronic, 2 x 22's, a 26", etc.
You are NOT going to transpose ANYTHING on those guitars if a string breaks, because the whole guitar goes out of tune. Can't believe the tech didn't just say, "The strings don't break during a show, because they get changed so often, and any little quirks that could cause a string to break have long since been ironed out." Cuz that's the truth. I play my Majesty for at least 300 hours between string changes, and since I adjusted the high e saddle, it no longer breaks strings.
Mike mangini doesnt have all this. Thats why he taught himself to play left and right handed, so he has a symmetrical kit. Whos more awesome? You decide.
Im a little late lol but i can agree in some cases. Mangini is a lot more melodic than portnoy and is just as good skill wise not to mention both of there drums sets. Though some of portnoys stuff only he can do with his sound.

When I met him at a meet-and-greet with Rod Morgenstein, he was kind of dismissive. But Rod talked with us for about 20 minutes afterwards.
@@gr8guitarplayer, every celebrity has moments like that. Understandable, as long as he wasn’t a massive jerk to you.

John is like the bus in Speed, I think he believes that if he stops playing bass, something is going to blow up.
The "secret cowbell" thing is genius, I've always wondered how bands can start together without some sort of cue-in.
so much of what made dream theaters show and over all band left when he did. no doubt about it......

TheHornet79 you regret seeingMP live??
@@shawndsilva9482 Obviously he meant to say, *not* seeing Portnoy with Dream Theater.
@@spyrospets5813 i wouldn't be so sure about that.
After this BS Covid panic ends, see him live with the reformed LTE!!!
"This is John's world, I don't know what the fuck those are" - Mike Portnoy rocks
I loved MPs "mind's all over the place"- kind of vibe and what it did to the band. Miss it!
Portnoy's always documented every event and tour, that's why fans always remember him👍👍
Mike Mangini won't do this kinda stuff... Real Mike, you will be missed. (No disrespect to Mike Mangini's jowful awesomeness)
Happy birthday, Mike! Stay cool! We love you!
It is very cool :-) I knew there was a way bands did it and that it was something like this, but to know exactly what they use is nifty.
Oh okay.
Saw him twice on BCSL, including his last headlining show with DT.
CODMarioWarfare that was my first DT show. It was a lot of fun.
John is such a genius, but he seriously never say shit xD
I miss you mike
Thanks for this awesome tour.
a drumset with side mirror, awesome!
Mike: “So, basically, here’s this... have no idea what the fuck it does...”
Mike realy loves the fans
Please Myung, make a solo record!
You know your days are numbered when the lead singer does not want you in the mix....Hahahaha
even though mike and john were pretty much dream thater's leaders
"I'm now the only one who can't move"
Maybe that's why he left...
+Ramso Music sometimes little things tell the whole story...
he isnt in a fucking marching band,right? wtf would he move
ich war da als das video gedreht wurde....sau geil....war es...spirit carries on im soundcheck war schon geil...ich sitz hinten auf der tribüne als mike sich abbabbelt
it's like mike got offended labrie didn't have his vocals
Greatest Band On The The Planet .......Period!
6:14 james labrie screaming??
a microphone, it's all you need... lol
now i know what i want for christmas :D
I love Mangini but I sure do miss Portnoy
Great video. I think that the bass player of Dream Theater is a bit underrated ?
Not at all. John Myung is just very laid back, quiet. Let's his bass playing do the talking. But anyone who knows about him usually recognizes his ridiculous skills.. :D
+Aggouris Dionisis not underrated at all. Everyone who has listened to plenty of Dream Theater knows he is a monster on the bass.
NO ONE IN DREAM THEATER IS UNDERRATED,have a quick look at the meaning of the word.
once you understand the meaning,stop misusing the fucking word.
underrated=to underestimate the extent, value, or importance of (someone or something).
Every time I see John Myung on video he’s always practicing. That’s when he’s on stage he’s always tight with DT.
5:24 clash of prog legends!
its a gadget called "throne thumper" its like a bass sub under his seat.
That Punching Bag has a good tone.
@Diwalicious "Here's John's pedal board"
6.15 Sounds like James in the backround :D
where perfect pitch comes in handy.:)
Lmao.
I love the punching bag! ^_^
@Irockman1 most bands have the earphones with their own mixes but i dont think most of em have that cowbell
@SirPhoenix91 i think it's the amp for his earphones

@Freezaen we still have Jordan :D
What has he got under his stool at 7:41? Anyone knows?
@Eddie147741 seize the day or something like that
don't watch them or make your own "bonus dvd" that will entertain you.=))
Mike mangini doesnt have all this. Thats why he taught himself to play left and right handed, so he has a symmetrical kit. Whos more awesome? You decide.
just wondereing why is john myung called JMX?
@tigrisnakkana lmao
jordan's equipments are as much expensive as apple is.
I really really feel bad for mikes drum tech.. he better get paid much
who the fuck as rear view mirrors on a drum kit
Not seeing him.
what does it mean Carpe diem?
seize the day live each day like it`s your last
Why JMX?
It is clickbait, i thought this would be about jordan's keyboards
Wait, you regret seeing him, or not seeing him?
They have a much better drummer now.
" They have a much better drummer now" said some random unknowing fucktard named donangry
+wayne smith You mean "says someone who knows good drumming".
+donangry +wayne smith you mean "says someone"

Dude mangina's fills are shite.
mangini is much better
