Easy, MP pushed the tempo too far, making JP play fast enough to kill. JM then had to revive everyone with his mind power before any permanent damage set in.
Petrucci got lost in his playing and accidentally hit 4billion notes per second, thus forcing the earth to rotate an extra 15 degrees in a split second, sweeping LaBrie off his feet.
And I was there to watch him fall.... Romania, Bucharest, July 4th 2002 -- Arenele Romane. Downright funny, yet exceptional presence from James! And Petrucci was very supportive -- he lay down while playing!
this right here is a fine example of real musicianship.. the most important thing and probably the hardest is to keep on going when you screw up live.. and that was a pretty hard fall. but. he just gets back up and keeps on going.. amazing.. my hat goes off to this man and such a great band.. :D
I can tell you that he really fell, I was there. And yes, it's "The Killing Hand". You cannot see on this film, but after he got up, Petrucci sat down for a minute on the stage while playing, smiling at James.
Good song...brillliant intro. I fell down when I heard Charlie sing it...but I think that was cause I temporarily went deaf...lol j/k...Great vid thanx for the post.
I was in first line on that concert in Bucharest - Romania....the accident turns actualy in a nice moment when after LaBrie falls, Petrucci has layed down on his back played in that position for a while...that saved the accident and everything was premadeit...;)
I've been at the gig. LaBrie stumbled on the mic tripod. Petrucci laid beside him right away. Myung went towards that place, but his guitar cable wasn't long enough.
As a die-hard Dream Theater fan and an epileptic I can see clearly what happened. It's called a drop attack, a seizure which lasts for mere seconds(notice how when you see him his legs are jumping before his arm hits the ground limp) Could have easily stemmed from the food poisoning he got back in the '90s. It's easy to see how it could be mistaken for a fall.
yes. what u didnt see is when james was about to sing, jordan used his wizard powers to cause a mic cable to slither out under james and trip him. as we all know that stuff they cant show on the air. just the after-effect
If he fell by accident, he seemed to be shocked when down, like your head is blur for a few seconds ... damn ! Still, he got back to the song as a master.
This is hilarious. Idk if he fell or what, but either way, it was in perfect timing with Mike hitting the symbol. Also, those of you saying Petrucci's playing a solo, IT'S CLEARLY NOT PETRUCCI. IF YOU WATCH, HE'S PLAYING CHORDS. IT'S THE KEYBOARDER PLAYING THE SOLO, NOT PETRUCCI
@dinkyemg nah, its just that hes playing so fast that the human eye cant discern or keep up with all the notes hes hitting so it just sounds and looks like chords.
The killing hand? ummm, it says so in the description. its from when dream and day unite, which is a perfectly regular DT CD. It's their very first one at that.
It almost looks like he passed out or something, it's kinda scary. But he gets up and knows what he's doing, so I guess he just "dramatically" tripped or something?
@GianfrixMG Myung needs neither to tackle or talk. This is because he has mental powers that allow him to attack people. He was afraid that this would destroy too many lives, so he channeled his power into his bass. Now, people only die at the end of Erotomania or the middle section of DoE
Love how dream theater made a live clip playlist and this is part of it
James LaBrie: ''Lo!'' (He falls)
Me: Lol!
"Lo." - James Labrie

i love how he just lays there for a second before deciding to stand up like hes soaking in wat just happened lol
he died at the concert, I remember
And I was there to watch him fall.... Romania, Bucharest, July 4th 2002 -- Arenele Romane. Downright funny, yet exceptional presence from James! And Petrucci was very supportive -- he lay down while playing!
JM:Secret technique...hidden tackle attack!
JL:LO...!
Looks like an electric shock to me. He's twitching when he lies on the ground.
And then sings along while recovering. That's why he's a rockin' PRO.

Proves that he's not lip synching!

A dramatic fall on the ground
Hahah I really love how the song fits the whole accident! :)
Like the epic part of the song when he's getting up!
Funny and professional save!
Don't ever take this video off, it's freakin' hillarious! The Killing Hand strikes again.
@Craftlord8 Another Hand/The Killing Hand from the album When Dream and Day Unite (1989)..
The Killing Hand, from When Dream and Day Unite
From When Dream and Day Unite, The Killing Hand
00:09 - James probably made sure to fall and roll in 12/8 or whatever time signature was occurring at that moment. Committed band member :)
Gracias por el video, em primera esa es mi rola favorita xD segunda, ese madrazo de Labrie estuvo genial jajajajaja thanks!!!!!
haha, I love how he keep his dignity and still singing like nothing was happened xD
Good song...brillliant intro. I fell down when I heard Charlie sing it...but I think that was cause I temporarily went deaf...lol j/k...Great vid thanx for the post.
epic moment. the tension of the passage, the band's member playing while labrie is KO... lol
I have the bootleg of this show and I was wondering why it cuts out around there, heh. Makes so much more sense now.
why does no one understand that wdadu is so fucking awesome!
john was in his world domination mode so he pwns everything ^^
I was in first line on that concert in Bucharest - Romania....the accident turns actualy in a nice moment when after LaBrie falls, Petrucci has layed down on his back played in that position for a while...that saved the accident and everything was premadeit...;)
Thats what i am talking about! Look the power that DT have for the music. They get back alive!
I've been at the gig. LaBrie stumbled on the mic tripod. Petrucci laid beside him right away. Myung went towards that place, but his guitar cable wasn't long enough.
ROFL!!!! PERFECTION, after he falls he actually got the song, and he keeped all the way long... with no prob.. very pro.
would love to see a full video of this song,sounds awesome with Labrie singing it!
Damn, he really was out of it for a moment there...
I heard about that happening again. My buddy was there. So awesome haha.

He was just dodging the blast radius.
@Craftlord8 Another Hand- The Killing Hand from WDADU.
yes. what u didnt see is when james was about to sing, jordan used his wizard powers to cause a mic cable to slither out under james and trip him. as we all know that stuff they cant show on the air. just the after-effect
XD after that, Myung would say to him: "Holy shit! are you okay?!"
the keyboard solo is awesome
i started fucking crying when he fell LMFAO!!!
If he fell by accident, he seemed to be shocked when down, like your head is blur for a few seconds ... damn ! Still, he got back to the song as a master.
I just saw the DVD, you should have left another minute of the video!
Petrucci lies on the floor of the stage making fun of LaBrie. :D
This is the Score DVD if I got it right?
He just wanted to rest a little moment xD
@deathscythekim729 Yeah, such a pity there is no video of this one...
I think LaBrie can see into the future and thought it would be funny to attempt to say "Lol" knowing he would fall over.
Actually, Petrucci fell first. You can tell because in that video they still had Kevin Moore, but in this one they have Jordan.
Fred, the only mistake you made was not realizing that the guy was correcting someone else and not you.
This is hilarious. Idk if he fell or what, but either way, it was in perfect timing with Mike hitting the symbol. Also, those of you saying Petrucci's playing a solo, IT'S CLEARLY NOT PETRUCCI. IF YOU WATCH, HE'S PLAYING CHORDS. IT'S THE KEYBOARDER PLAYING THE SOLO, NOT PETRUCCI
He made it look like he was supposed to
Singing is very exhausting, seeing as you have to continuously empty your lungs for two hours.
He sure recovered amazingly!
JP entered to killzone mode and he almost got LaBrie but he escaped.......Thanks god for saving LaBrie
00:08 John Petrucci: Behold THE DEATH BEAM!
(ZAPS James' ASS!)
00:09 James LaBrie: Lo! (in pain!)
He recovered very well.
@dinkyemg nah, its just that hes playing so fast that the human eye cant discern or keep up with all the notes hes hitting so it just sounds and looks like chords.
The killing hand? ummm, it says so in the description. its from when dream and day unite, which is a perfectly regular DT CD. It's their very first one at that.
the invisible myung tackle attack..
he fell into infinity.
BEST
somone pulled him under and fell into infinity
It almost looks like he passed out or something, it's kinda scary. But he gets up and knows what he's doing, so I guess he just "dramatically" tripped or something?
@nekezajebancije post it please, id love to see that haha
"LAAAAA................" LMAO
when u realize you're the killing hand 💀
What really happened, is that Labie yelled "LOL" in the mic and took a quick nap.
Now, there's only one riddle left to solve, whose was the killing hand that pushed him.
"It's probably not a good idea to tackle your lead singer"...
he fell into infinity
Hehe. Although that wasn't in this case, it did actually happen once. There's a pic somewhere with them rolling around
read again... it says it's the same show as the great debate from 'score' bous disc.
lol, seriously, this is the concert where john myung tackled La Brie. Just look where Myung is standing after the fall! :p
A mysterious technique from a mysterious John Myung...
thanks ;)
the killing shit!
He got sniped, but recovered!
John Myung knows the secret of the hidden dragon
petrucci used his "killzone mode" but myung blocked it with his "myung tackle" that's why james collapsed only... these guys are dangerous!
Has anyone else had "Lo-!" pop up randomly in their heads for the last ten years or so?
@13SamuelDavid Sadly, there is no video of it. >:(
The guys were probably like, What the Fuck? lol
sounds like he said "Look!" before he fell
Dream theater would be so much more appealing to non-musicians if they would just get a better singer
He didn't fall, he was just resting :)
LOOOL!! Lo...'plopp* Priceless :D
what really happened here? poor kevin james labrie!
Funny how he drops dead then stays there for a while thinking "oh shit" ... lol
i saw that video!! WHERE THE HELL IT WENT? i wanna see that full video again! its so funny!
but still they are wizzards we are human, we make mistakes.. DT 4ever!!! best band on the world
"LO!" haha poor james
Does anyone actually have the video of where John tackled James?
It's funny how the camera guy doesn't realize who's actually soloing
Very nice recovery.
@GianfrixMG Myung needs neither to tackle or talk. This is because he has mental powers that allow him to attack people. He was afraid that this would destroy too many lives, so he channeled his power into his bass. Now, people only die at the end of Erotomania or the middle section of DoE
@JatexTC It's just like the mythic john myung...... stuff of legends.....
Another Hand, The Killing Hand !
Bucharest, 2002
he fell into infinity
thats whats called a professional
@ilhadosmacacos It's Jordan playing that solo...
