    My favourite thing about this Drumeo video isn't the performance (although the drumming is unbelievable!) or the song (even though it's way better than I expected), it's Mike Portnoy's personality. I've never listened to Dream Theater so I've never come across Mike Portnoy before, but he's great! Love the new studio too!

    • @Cmoore718
      @Cmoore718 3 місяці тому +10

      I'm a lil bit of a drum nerd(maybe a 'nerd-lite'? Have to put too much time into being a full time race car nerd, one man can only do so much nerding) so that's how I know about Portnoy, though Dream Theater has never been my style. An all-timer band for sure, talent, writing, & performing abilities off the charts, just not my style of prog metal(blusey Mastodon-like and darker Mudvayne-type stuff are more my style; I'd still go see DT live though for sure). But I would listen to the shit outta a Mike Portnoy podcast! It looks like he's been a guest on a number of different ones, but dude would totally have a market for his own show for sure lol.

    What i find absolutely fascinating about Mike Portnoy is how he is abe to play so busy parts, playing so much without annoying or disturbing the song, but doing right the opposite, He is as far from any look-what-i-can-do drummer as you can be and that while he´s doing all Mike Portnoy does.

    Mike has been my favorite musician for many years - but not only because of his drumming. He is just such an interesting person. Back in the old DT days, he would document everything on video and this gave us fans a look into the personalities of the band members. His love and knowledge of other bands is also something I admire

I was there from the beginning, read and commented on the msg boards daily for years, got ALL of the fan club Christmas CDs (and about a dozen bootlegs), met them numerous times and even got Mike’s permission to video one of his Guitar Center drum clinics in Atlanta using a HD camera on a tripod with 2 of it’s 3 legs TOUCHING the drum riser….and gladly sent him a copy at his request!

      I wonder if this relates to wearing a mouth piece in sports. There's been different mouth pieces that are supposed to "increase strength/explosion a couple percent", "less susceptible to getting KO'd", and this and that, but as far as I'm aware none of these have ever legitimately tested to show a consistent, meaningful improvement. But, anecdotally, you'll hear a lot of athletes say that they feel like they can perform better - maybe some subconscious 'comfort' of sorts as a result of a little tension release.

    Portnoy is such a fantastic musician, not just a drummer. He just always somehow creates the most tasteful parts to complement the music. I can’t understate how insanely overjoyed I was when I heard he was back in DT. And he’s going to use his best sounding drum kit for the new album. I have the highest hopes and wishes.

    Loved drums since childhood but can't speak the language. What I gathered is that Nickelback made a conscious decision to bring let guitar shine a little brighter than drums but Mike's version leaned toward the opposite. Man, can that guy improvise. One of my favorite Drumeo performances so far. Need to visit their library and see who else is out there.

    I love how Mike's first take is basically ready for print on the track, lol. Incredible and agree on his musicianship! On the topic of the double bass on the chorus, I would say that my preference would be to have the stripped back single bass drum on the first or 2nd iteration of the chorus and then save the double bass or even half time feel for the 3rd iteration or towards the end. That way you get something different as the song progresses. I would also say that my mind works similar in terms of understanding the charting so that I can play ideas that fit with the music and the structure. Great vid as always Andrew!

    Awesome video, love what Drumeo has been doing with this idea, it's pretty genius! Love this series! Really appreciate just hearing MUSICIANS play and talk about other music that they aren't typically associated with, gotta love the LACK of gatekeeping and snobbery from the majority of the musicians out there, it's such a contrast to trying to talk music with fans("fans"). Shout out to YT and such giving the Andrew Rooneys of the world a platform too for that matter.
    Mike Portnoy filling in on drums in Nickelback would've been pretty damn awesome, I would've actually checked that out LOL. Gotta love those crossovers, like Joey Jordison filling in for Lars in Metallica.
    BTW, for every video they do where the drummer doesn't just jump right into it - we always have to acknowledge Chad Smith just being an animal and shredding 30StM while barely having heard it lol. I'm not saying he's "better" than anyone else, or that that's the "better" way to do it... but damn it's impressive!

      You can tell Adair knows what he's doing. No flam timing issues between that snare and bass. The old 'slow is smooth and smooth is fast' mantra never fails.

    Hi, Andrew! Love your new studio, although that strobing red circle on the wall behind you is a huge distraction, try a lava lamp instead. The video is awesome and Mike just rocks it. He had a lot of fun doing it, that was cool. Also, just love his TAMA drums! For some reason Nickelback is truly hated here in Canada, I don't know why. It might be the perception that they have not been loyal to their fan base.

    • @AndrewRooneyDrums

    Yesterday I saw a reaction of another creator who was like "this dude's been doing the same drum fill for 30 years" and now I cant unhear it and see it (not that I didn't notice it, but he's right) and I burst out laughing. But to be honest it is his signature move and he's done it all so, just can't get enough with Mike. What a great musician and chill man. Loved the reaction btw! \m/

    • @flatnicable
      @flatnicable 3 місяці тому +1

      The fill in question is called a "Portnoy-fill" for a reason lol

    • @thepooz7205
      @thepooz7205 3 місяці тому

      I have to imagine any drummer’s first take on any song is going to include whatever go-to fills they do by default. That would be something that would only need polishing late in the process.

    *Andrew . . .*
    You want to see how NUTZ Portnoy's "Humor" is? Find the video with his Drum-tech (and another member of the staff, and I think Jordan Rudess is recording it), as they are making-up a _commercial ad_ backstage, on the spot for . . . . "ROCK JUICE"! Its really really IN-SANE :D.
    For your question; with whatever project, side band and Dream Theater, Mike seems to be "In the Groove" or In the Pocket. Always relaxed and "part of the drums", but he can be _into_ the Heavier tracks of DT, the heavier side-bands and you can SEE him get more aggressive.
    - BTW; hilarious reaction and I too had the same amazement. I'm glad I'm watching this _before_ seeing the actual video.
    I HUGELY suggest watching Mike's "Playthrough" of Dream Theater's "Pull Me Under" with Drumeo :D. Which (Haha!) IRONICALLY has a "Pre-mature Evacuation" that is kind of famous (and they've had a few - "That's What SHE Said!" - tracks that have those pre-mature evacuations :p).
