For people that do not know this song and have seen my video versions of this with and without the click track, I mixed my live drums from this EU 2022 Show with the album music from our 2011 Dream Theater release, "A DRAMATIC TURN OF EVENTS." The pic in pic view isn't the easiest to see, but it is there so drummers can see which foot I'm using and when. I switch my left foot to being the "main" one to entertain myself, to work it out so it doesn't just sit there all night, and also because it keeps me focussed and alert.

7:32 when there are mosquitoes bothering me
hahaha this made me laugh haha
Haha! Yep!
HAHAHAHAHA
I'm not a drummer but I love watching him play. Just amazes me.
me too .he kind like cool uncle.
Me too.
Me too
Me too.
Me toooo
Mike Mangini is a phenomenal drummer musician. He's so natural,so much power. What an inspiration to me and thousands of musicians out there.100 %down to earth human being. Respect.
Mike Mangini is a drumming national treasure. His attitude and excitement towards playing is just the best.
I was thinking just the contrary... His face expression seems he is in such pain/effort... He seems to wish to be anywhere else than there...
@@riccardolacchini3968 Yeah he hates it. That's why he's been playing the drums for half a century.
Mr.Mangini One And Only.....
Thank you Mike for your time at DT! Whatever people said throughout the time, stepping in after the founding drummer left, is not an easy job. The way how you did it along with your fantastic drum parts for new albums is just great!
Would love to see what’s next for you!
Noone else cold fill the hole that portnoy left on DT but this insane musician.
Thanks for sharing with the world your gift master!
This mans precision never ceases to amaze me. What a beast! Please do more of these drumcams :)
True, its precise! But good drumming is sooooo much more than just precision and fast hands. Those MM sure have but thats sadly all he has😞
@@seetukka it’s not though. His hands are just as independent as his hands. He serves the music and plays fills and grooves related to what the rest of the band are playing. His ability to create and play polyrhythms are incredible. I don’t know if you’re a drummer, but it’s hard to get people who don’t play drums to actually understand that he’s much more then fast
@@ItsTheBongoman Ive played drums for 20years so I know what Im talking about😊 There are so many drummers who can do the same that MM does. Yeah he plays the same as the band does but so does all the drummers😄What he has is fast hands and thats all. I just dont understand how anyone can even compare him to drummers like Neil Perth or Mike Portnoy who really can play and feel the rest of the band, has an amazing composing skills, have amazing groove and feel but still play amazingly technical parts. You just cant compare MM to these guys. He is a robot and sounds like one
@@seetukka for someone with 20 years of experience you seem to be extremely fucking naive. I love Mike portnoy but no way shape or form could he play the pieces that Mangini has written. If you look at his pieces and don’t see creativity then you are close minded and there’s no point in trying to change a mind of someone like that
@@ItsTheBongoman You just proved my point there saying that he cant play the parts MM plays. Yeah maybe not, but who cares? Its not about how fast you play. Its about the feel, composing and ability to make drumparts that match the music. All MM fanboys seem to respect is raw speed. Yeah MM has that for sure. Way more than Portnoy but what the hell, there are tens of drummers faster than MM😄 MM would be a good death metal drummer for sure but he is not particullary good drummer otherwise.
It is an experience to watch him.... The control, the calm, the timing... And the rolling after 10:30 is insane. Gotta love him
you can the deep breath he takes before the rolling ,,,,
I think he is still underrated. We should give more credit to his
work.
ur joking, everyone knows mike is a legend from all his work
Underrated 🤣 Mike is the GOAT . Check out his stuff from the 90s . He was doing atomic blast's with both hands before it came mainstream today .
I think so too. Mangini is very, very talented and people like to use his precision against him.
Nah, he's decent but still no Portnoy, fact.
@@Ryno2094 agree
most precise and most consistent drum playing in the world
59 years old and still the best
This guy can't do wrong... the precision, the dynamic, and performance are wonderful. I'll always question the knowledge and understanding of music of people that say he's a robot. THEY'RE COMPLETELY WRONG.
Man I wish this is how the drums sounded on the actual record. Your incredible playing on the first few albums was masked by a less than stellar drum mix.
Actually they sound terrible here, they're just more audible than on the actual record. Listen to the recent sweetwater interview where Mike is playing in their studio - his drums sound really great there, even better than on their recent album.
@@huberttorzewski Yea these are obviously taken from a live set and it does not sound good at all (it doesn't have to).
@@huberttorzewski It really does. I think it has the benefit of good reverb (which you can't expect from them playing at a venue) and also not having to worry about it being mixed with other instruments so there's no need for compression and eq etc outside of just making the kit sound good on its own. I do think keeping a bit more of a 'raw' sound goes a long way though. Just makes it feel less like you're hearing drums played on a computer.
It’s literally impressive that his timing is so accurate that he can just post the track with the album music.
He is listening the metronome (among the other members) all the time during the shows, and the metronome (and the added backing effects) give him the right tempo.
When he auditioned for the band, they said afterwards about his performance, that they could probably go out that night and play a show.
Best drummer in the world for more than 2 decades now
The power and precision with which Mike plays is unequalled!
I have watched all 3 of these incredible videos and sit here thinking, how does he remember all of that?, how does he have the stamina? And that ‘THIS IS JUST ONE SONG!!! He doesn’t now get a week off!!! He has to play for another couple of hours!!!! Absolutely amazing in every way!! 👍🥁
Because he is the God of drums. Atleast for me 👍.
He’s composing is pretty simple. Its basically 90% of the songs a simple beats and then few fast fills. Id recommend to watch some other drummers. They have way better stamina than MM
He remembers because he wrote it. That comes from your instinct as a drummer. It's much harder to remember complicated drum covers. I'm sure he refreshes his mind if he hasnt played it in awhile.
Plus....he's Mike Mangini. Never wastes a beat.
@@seetukka He tends to favor physical placement rather than tonal. While I think he's a great drummer, after watching a ton of his videos, I feel his ambidextrous approach makes his drumming difficult for no real reason. It doesn't add any extra audible dynamic layers to the music and most certainly isn't innovative in terms of style or feel. No disrespect intended towards Mr. Mangini. Just my .02 after years of being a drum enthusiast.
@@Guppusmaximus Agreed100%
And this is why the rest of the band’s expression (keyboard/guitar solos/vocal deliveries) sounds perfect. Because MM keeps the tempo perfect.
It's like a color print of some fine copper engraving, isn't it? Accurate and beautiful.
This is why it sounds so lame nowadays. Soulless machine playing with metronome. No dynamic, groove or feel. Just overprecise execution. Its not music, its a sport performance.
@@jichola Yeah MM just ruined the whole band for me. I just dont like his drumming at all. He has fast hands but thats about it. I hate his composing and sound. Theyre really boring. There is no organic feel to his playing. Its just a sport performance, not music. He has some nice fills every now and then but his beats doesnt match the music. He just dont have the ability to create amazing and mesmerizing drum parts. Theyre really average and there are thousand of drummers that could compose and play them. Also his performance looks bad. It looks like he is at the edge of his ability all the time. Compairing to Portnoy whi just has a blast every show and looks like he is just having fun.
@@jichola How did they did it during MP era? Portnoy never used click at live shows and they sounded way more organic. The live shows were fun to watch. They dont have any backing tracks so why use click?? They were able to do it before. What has changed? Is it so that MM is not able to play without click?
@@seetukka thanks for telling us you know nothing about dynamic or groove. You are using the same assertion every other musically ignorant person makes in order to shit on something they don’t like. Go find another band to listen to instead of crying
Those single limb octobon fills were pretty cool. Sounded like he was using two limbs. This proves it is not the set but the player. Smaller set, same awesome music. Mangini gets it done!!
I love how much emotion comes through in Mike's facial expressions. I feel a lot of the same feelings at certain parts when I'm mental/air drumming along to the song and it's so cool to see him going through similar expressions of this powerful music.
Exactly my experience air drumming to this song as well 😄
I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I loved Portnoy but your magical drum knowledge has enhanced the band & have taken them to another level Maestro!!!!!!!!!!!
You cant compare these two. MM is a souless machine. MP was a real drummer with dynamic feel and sound on his drumming. Also you cant even speak about groove when talking about Mangini. Its just precise metronome assisted machine and thats exactly what it sounds like.
@@seetukka sure, MP's constant RLRLKK sound so dynamic and revolutionary, never gets old as a meme.
@@IndoFahmi You can make memes as much as you want but it doesnt change the reality. Mangini is an athlete, not musician.
@@IndoFahmi Guys... this "20 years of experience drummer" Jony Karlsson isn't lying... he has the absolute truth in the palm of his hand and everyone is wrong... xD (Mangini laughs in polyrythm).
@@victororozco192 😂😂
It blows my mind how you still put all your soul in to every little hit! Like you said on the video of the auditions. Huge fan mike. God bless you.
I used to actually play this drum cam side by side with the album track and manually sync it because it sounds cool to me. Now we have this version already! Thank you Mr. Mangini
I am happy Portnoy is back but sad your are gone from DT. Weird ,but there it is. Your legacy it DT has been carved out and cannot be denied. DT should do some “Mangini Era” songs live. You may have departed but forever a part of DT. Respect. ✌️
Are you kidding me Mike, flying the album music on top of a live performance, super human!! Makes me want to practice today!!
Master M. Mangini. Very easy and professional drummer. Cool drumming style
What's being posted lately is exactly what we wanna see! Thank you so much for taking the time to put together these videos!
by far my most favorite video on the internet, pictures of a man just absolutely playing his guts out... fantastic video, Mike!
Simply incredible. The time he put into his craft shows itself in mike mangini. There is nothing this guy cant play, you know with his opposite hand and foot as well.
60 oldu. 5-6 yıl daha şu performansta çalsa yeter. Ama 70i de bu seviyede görür gibi.
Yaş ilerledikçe hız dışında bir sorun yaşanmıyor pek. Ayrıca bilek kullanmaya da ihtiyacı yok her şeyi parmaktan çalabiliyor, o yüzden felç falan geçirmediği sürece bir sorun yaşamaz, zaten antrenmanını eksik etmiyor takıntılı adam.
@@omermoral4219 kesinlikle. istediği zaman hiç efor harcamadan çalabileceğini The Alien klibinde gösterdi. o zaman Portnoy'la farkını daha iyi anladım. çok başka dünyalar, ikisi de çok kıymetli.
Starts on the hat, ends on the hat. So good Mike. Goose Bumps.
I ve watched you in Istanbul with Vai and still haven t got enough. Thank you for being yourself Mike. You're being loved for sure. Respect for all.
There's something special in this guys, not just playing, but personality. Seems like a man with a big heart! Much respect!
Will always remember and remember Mr. MM's diamond drumming
Once in a lifetime musician.
Give a rocket scientist a drum kit and this is what happens!
Believe it or not, in a few ways, he reminds me of Jeff Porcaro.. The Prog Porcaro.
The Mangini / DT connection was mind-blowing. Just incredible music, and artistic drumming by Mike.
Aku melihatnya kembali karena pasti akan merindukan setiap pukulannya. Semoga semakin sukses MM
Merindukan pukulannya dan tidak berarti merindukan lagu-lagunya
6:37 FIRE!
I imagine your heart rate is through the roof, mine is just watching you! Unbelievable talent!
Mike mangini es una máquina en la batería,que precisión y técnica 😱,nunca dejaré de escuchar los temas de DT con él,mis favoritos.
extraordinary song ! For me A Dramatic Turn of Events is in the Top 3 Best Dream Theater Albums !
Same here - it has stood the test of time really well.
Absolutely incredible. Hands down one of the greatest drummers of all time.
Lol! No way. Not even near.
@@seetukka you’re either insane or you don’t know drumming, or both
@@ryrodrums6727 Im neither.
Always at the top pf your game Mike! Awesome! Saludos desde Santiago de Chile.
Easily a top 5 DT song for me. Masterpiece.
Agreed
Probably the best DT song post Mike Portnoy as well
Since Mike joined Dream Theater, and when I first laid ears to this song, is and always be on my top 5 DT song lists
My favorite drummer !
Mike Mangini es un doctor en la materia de percusion no perdio el tempo para nada!
Those were some mean crashes. You even looked angry on those cymbal triplets. That was a magnificent performance Mike, you are the most technical and precise drummer out there. Virgil Donati, Marco Minnemann and Thomas Lang are very technical too, and they're extremely talented, but I get an emotional vibe by the way that you hit those instruments. You have raw emotion.
Sadly after many years with DT some people and fans still not recognize his contribution on this band
What can I say, Mangini is amazing, he is one of the greatest. Bridges in the sky always amazed me, even from the start, it has one of the best Dream Theater drumming. Thank you mr Mangini, and keep it up, btw, A view from the top of the world is a great album, congrats
Mr. Mangini, it is such an honor to watch your art being communicated with "Bridges in the Sky." Letting others observe your word under such a microscope concludes that your level of life/family and health balance, performance ability, courage, musicianship, drumming technique, & possibly some spiritual journey, has surpassed the most advanced players of our time. I not only sit in silence in awe observing these clips but feel a deep sense of inner peace. Your intelligence continues to raise the bar in the drumming/artist/musician community, giving students of the instrument hope and encouragement during a time where routine practicing can be difficult amid such daily distractions. Everything all coming together, in such balance, for such a brief moment, 11 minutes... enough to demonstrate what truly can be possible! A lifetime of commitment celebrated. With that said, thank you. Wishing you and your family the safest, healthiest, and most blessed day out there. -K
Sophisticatingly amazing.
That Ride to his right is absolutely outrageous in that musical setting. Sweet!
Great stuff. The throat singing intro always cracks me up
🥵🥵 ufa exaustivo até de assistir mandou muito bem mangini ótimo trabalho Deus te abençoe sempre 🇧🇷
This might be a bit off, but I think Mangini is like the MJ of drummings, everything must be as smooth and perfect as possible, there's no other way. I think that while watching this, one might forget that in the end its a job, and a well done one, Mangini is always going the the whole 9yrds, really amazing!🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
Hey Mike , my girl was in a band called Riot , she saw y’all on the Waiting for the punchline tour ...I saw you with Vai a few years later . You are the best !
Like 15 year ago i heard an album, damn, the drums. That was Metal, the Annihilator's album. Since that I have been follow the Mangini´s steps and still surprising me.
Increíble PRECISIÓN y musicalidad!!!!!..grande Mangini!!
This song looks so badass. I always used this when driving in a car. Wow.... My spirit was rised suddenly... (One of all favourite song)
Mr.Mangini 🥁 👍❤🇮🇩❤👍
Way better than the recording. That is how I want to feel when I'm his age. So much energy, focus, and fun. He makes it look so easy.
this man is monster drumming
Fun fact: if you watch this performance twice, it makes you twice as happy :D
I just feel so bad for you, Mike. I don't know the things behind the curtains, but you did an extremely great job. I just can't imagine your material be played by somebody else, even not by Portnoy. Best of luck for you!
This was my favorite song from this album, put me onto the magic of Mike Mangini.
I am a drummer and he just blows me away. I love these drum cams!
wow..😮the amazing Mike Mangini..❤👍
Its crazy that he's 60 years old and can still play like in the 90s. Kinda sad to see him aging and using more effort though 😢
I’m so sad dt has kicked him. I love portnoy but they won grammy cause of mangini and petrucci on The alien. You can’t deny that. Well its their band after all but still it sucks to see mangini leave
@@dharshdanube6911what's worse is this: Portnoy was the one that left when everyone else wanted to continue, then when Avenged Sevenfold told him they weren't going to hire him full time, he tried to come back to DT, only to be rebuffed again and was told they had already hired Mangini. From then on, up until this year, Petrucci and Labrie both stated on several occasions that the lineup with Mangini WAS DT and that he was not going anywhere. So to me, they went back on their words. I understand Portnoy is an original member - I was inspired by him early on in my playing after they began airing on MTV - but HE left the band because HE burned himself out by controlling too much and not sharing duties with the rest of the band. Now don't get me wrong, Portnoy is a great drummer and has inspired so many again including me, but to me he burned his bridge by thinking Avenged Sevenfold was going to take him full time, much like a cheating spouse that leaves for a mistress only to be snubbed and try to come back home. All that said, this whole thing pisses me off because Mangini poured his heart and sweat into getting in the band and busted his ass for 13 years, taking their creativity to new levels, being told he was a permanent member only to be snubbed and for what?? The man helped them get their first Grammy - not that DT ever really cared for that longtime-rigged nonsense anyway. I'm interested in seeing if Portnoy has grown from his burnout and helps write some better music than the last few albums before he quit, and for the love of all creation doesn't try and take away control from the band and derail the dynamic they've built in his absence. Either way, they did Mangini wrong, but at the end of the day, Mangini is better off as his capabilities are beyond the band.
When he plays drums it's like his drums are singing also while keeping those spaces alive with his awesome fills.
Great performance
A machine! Absolutely incredible.
Mike is a beast =) Love that super massive floor tom...you could sublet a room in that thing!
When DT choose MM in the auditions 10 years ago was because this was the guy. Just amazing 🤩
First class drummer
Absolutely amazing Mike!
Last few days I'm having fun with imaging the real drum sound in older records... I think I'm quite good at that mental excercise (since I know how it's supposed to be), but this is definitelly better experience. Thanks!
Blackness awakens
Visions come alive
Seeing through darkness
With borrowed eyes
Death survivor
Take me higher
Reunite my soul
Whisperer of truth
I trust in you
To make me whole
Sun
Come shine my way
May healing waters bury all my pain
Wind
Carry me home
The fabric of reality is tearing apart
The piece of me that died
Will return
To live again
Feeling myself slip away
Suddenly dreaming awake
Hidden memories
Flooding back
I will not grow in the light
Until I pass through the darkest caverns of my heart
Dance with fire
Spirit guide erase the world outside
Messenger of truth
I trust in you
Transform me now
Sun
Come shine my way
May healing waters bury all my pain
Wind
Carry me home
The fabric of reality is tearing apart
The piece of me that died
Will return
To live again
And at last the time has come
To unite again as one
To the power of the Earth I'm calling
Crossing bridges in the sky
On a journey to renew my life
Shaman take my hand
Sun
Come shine my way
May healing waters bury all my pain
Wind
Carry me home
The fabric of reality is tearing apart
The piece of me that died
Will return
To live again
And at last the time has come
To unite again as one
To the power of the Earth I'm calling
Crossing bridges in the sky
On a journey to renew my life
Shaman take my hand
This was absolutely incredible, one of my favorite Dream Theater songs. I haven't been able to go to a DT concert yet so the closest I can get is watching your drum cams and listening to the live albums (really hope the band puts out a live album for the new album tour). Please do more of these videos!!
I love the way the dragon wings fit perfectly over Mike's shoulders! 😂
What a legend... Thx for the share.. 😎🤘
Please share more live performance video! We love your performance!
He was born to drum in Dream Theater! Awesome stuff
Wrong! I think he ruined DT. The band is not even close of what it used to be. Tbh its not just that he’s drumming is bad but also the thing that MP was the soul of the band. He also had a big role on composing the songs. MM doesnt have any role on it.
he's perfect in DT
@@bounty1402 No he’s not
@@seetukkaLOL the song that he had major contributions to got them a Grammy
@@Adixon5 He still had very little contribution to it😉
5:04 still one of the best fills I think Ive ever heard
Right!? each limb doing their own thing and still complimenting one another.
Harmony!
@@Mugenryujin totally
would like to know exactly what it is ;)
My fave is the REALLY crazy one he does in "Enigma Machine"....you KNOW the one!
@@EricLThomp75 that one is straight flames 🔥🔥
love this man! INCREDIBLE!
As a drummer you keep me inspired, but mostly humbled. Amazing playing! Thanks for the video. 🤗.
Outstanding 🏁
Also love the keyboard and guitar work again amazing
I'm a bassist, and I'd pay good money to have an entire concert filmed like this. With or without the live audio track, wouldn't matter. Damn this is so impressive to me. Makes me want to play just that much more.
Incredible power and precision!!
EL MEJOR BATERISTA DEL MUNDO.
Amazing skill..😍
God damn it Mike you're a monster! Love you dude!
Mike is great worker!
Monster!!!
greetings from Indonesia 🇮🇩🇮🇩 MM🔥
awesome
Amazing fill at 3:52.... MONSTER!
Mike, you are best! :)
you are so amazing sir.....
Absolutely love your playing, Mr Mangini! So technical, but everything still just feels so incredibly musical
