James came in too early at the end of the song. The band apparently wanted to play an extended instrumental section when James started singing, but they couldn't, so Mike just let loose with the closing drum solo.
Great example of how a drummer can keep himself from getting bored playing the same songs over and over again. He added a ton of things to the original track but didn’t sacrifice the beat. It’s obvious that he enjoys a challenge but still makes it look easy.
There’s no doubt that mike portnoy was the brains of dream theatre in every aspect...... his drumming and energy is exceptional ..... you can see it how he drives the band and takes command in sons of Apollo.
The natural ability to such complex music is what is most mind blowing and entertaining about Portnoy. His sound, style and approach is just so free. Like he doesnt have to think about the music while playing prog. Thats what makes music great, especially prog. Not a dead person counting numbers.
Summer of 1992 Pull Me Under was the new Z Rock radio channel in Detroit. I was 15. As a drummer - it was mind blowing. Then we got the cassette.... Woah! Portnoy was always an inspiration. I will say that I have really enjoyed Mangini era as well. I'm personally thankful to have been exposed to both great drummer in one phenomenal band.
I only really listened to DT since Mangeni. MP had a real personality behind the kit. He would sing and get the crowd going. Now I can kind of understand why older dream theater fan say it's not the same.
Creo que no había persona más fan de Dream Theater que Mike Portnoy. Se le sale por los poros,es increíble como disfrutaba tocar en esta banda.aun hoy, tocando estas canciones con otras personas, se le nota lo mucho que le mueven el alma
Showmanship people! Effortlessly. Mangini looks and sounds like a robot. I can not wait till they come out with a new record with Portnoy being back. Heck yeah!
It is amazing that Dream Theater has had such a long, and successful career, yet "Pull Me Under" from their 2nd album, "Images And Words," released way back in 1992, is the only song they ever did that got any kind of significant radio air play.
John Pettruci and Mike Portnoy were the heart and soul of this band. And add Jordan Rudess into the mix and an amazing technical progressive masterpiece
Kick drums usually have 2 internal mics In and 1 Out, sometimes with just 1 In 1 Out it's enough, maybe that kit had triggers so he didn't needed a mic on it.
I love his reactions when he misses his stick flip 😂😂😂. I believe that was the 3rd time he missed it during the 2nd song as he transitions over to his other kit 🤣
yeah I was at the show as well lol, seen them so many times in Wallingford always an amazing show, obviously miss Portnoy but yeah I thought that was so cool he wore a Uconn jersey
Mangini will never play with this much feel . Portnoy means every note he plays and weighs on it. When mangini plays like this, i will like DT again. edit: "play"
Alejandro Paz well mangini does play like this. And who’s to say mangini doesn’t have “feel”. Everyone drummer has a different feel to them and mangini does play with energy and weight.
It's His Opinion, So He Said "For Me" (That Means For Him) And We All Know The Fans Will Say The Album Version Is The Best Version... And That's Classic!
I never noticed that you can hear Mike yell "Hey!", at 31:05. XD
Yea he was pissed!
kazz1896 What was he pissed at?
James came in too early at the end of the song. The band apparently wanted to play an extended instrumental section when James started singing, but they couldn't, so Mike just let loose with the closing drum solo.
@@avengedsoul6661 ah, so is this the same performance as the other video -"Pissed off Mike Portnoy"?
I love how they pulled that off and got past Labrie’s screw up!
Portnoy makes it seem so effortless, and he's got a really good sense of showmanship without going overboard.
i totally agree with this! one of the most charismatic performer i've seen

MP makes everything look easy. He is that great.
Mike Portnoy is the Soul of Dream Theater.
Of cause.
Portnoy is a master of his craft no question about it. LabBrie sounds like an alcoholic grandmother on karaoke night
Both is good . Labries also good 😆😆😆😊
@@chaneppchannel_935 he is not anymore
Lol
Wkwkw alcoholic grandmother
Hilarious!
21:33 ... when he got back the stick !!!!! Priceless footage .
At 5:22 Mike lost one of his drum sticks and he cried. How cute😂😂😂
What a glorious drum sound¡¡ The one and ONLY Mike Portnoy¡¡¡

Yeah, Manigi is no doubt a great drummer but he doesn't have the groove of Portnoy. Watching this vid helps me realize that more than ever.
I've been watching Mike's videos for more than two hours !! He is the drummer of my dreams!!

With a deep respect for mangini. This guy (portnoy) can show his shining soul while playing drums. And I can see very few persons show that in music.
Showmanship people! Effortlessly. Mangini looks and sounds like a robot. I can not wait till they come out with a new record with Portnoy being back. Heck yeah!
The creativity, rhythm and feel is just incredible. Raw talent perfected!
U can tell he has the love n passion thats in him.such s amazing,talented ,unique player he is.Cool video thanks for showing it.
Hearing this just makes me want to get behind the kit again. Thanks for the memories MP
21:26 the moment you realize that you are that good to try again while doing it live... FLAWLESS
2nd throw was so calculated even the hit right after
It is amazing that Dream Theater has had such a long, and successful career, yet "Pull Me Under" from their 2nd album, "Images And Words," released way back in 1992, is the only song they ever did that got any kind of significant radio air play.
21:33 that moment when Portnoy successfully gets his left stick back from the audience..... ❤️🔥sooo satisfactory 🤩
Jordan back the stick!?
The golden days of Myung's bass sound prominence in the tracks.
John Pettruci and Mike Portnoy were the heart and soul of this band. And add Jordan Rudess into the mix and an amazing technical progressive masterpiece
The best of Drummer of Dream Theater for all time is Mike Portnoy !!!
I was at that show, crazy seeing footage of it 14 years later!
Gotta love Mike's "Nerd Pushups". The finger pushing up the glasses. My kindred Nerd spirit.
It's amazing, you can actually hear Myung!
God, I dream and long for the return of this man to Dream Theater, and I don't mean any disrespect to Mike Mangini.
Same here and I do love Mike Mangini but Portnoy is Portnoy.
his drum tone and drum fill give me goosbum
@@Neskin-fg1in Just sit back, look, listen and enjoy his performance on the SCORE DVD, simply mind blowing
FUCK!!! Magini..he will never replace Portnoy..EVER..NEVER..not in my books at least..MIKE IS A FUCKING DEITY..FUCKING ADMIT IT, FOLKS..
He is a bona fide living legend.
And today, he's proven he doesn't need this band.
Winery Dogs, and Sons Of Appollo are some of my favorites.
Mike "DrumMaster" Portnoy!
🤘🏻🇧🇷
Mike: the number one of the numbers one!
Labrie is dying on the stage and Petrucci sounds like a bee, but it is good to see Portnoy having fun on the drums.
Till this moment I've never realized how much differently he played some parts live (in oppose to the album version). Both versions are cool though.
Master class!
Mike fixing his glasses every few mins I feel ur pain lol
Dream Theaterに戻ってきて欲しい。
マイキーがいたときのDTのアルバム、ハードなんだけどとっつきやすくて、フレーズも凄いカッコ良かったし、毎日のように聴いてたな。
King Crimsonなんか今はドラム3人もいるんだぜw？
DTもなんとか上手い事ならないもんかねぇ……。
❤ for Mike
Portnoy and Carey the beast on drums ever
Fantastic Drum Solo #10 You Rock☺️🎶❤️🤘
Incredible!
There's a crab in James Labrie pants, that's why he sings Just like that
That drum tech is fired, he forgot to mic up the second bass drum lol
Kick drums usually have 2 internal mics In and 1 Out, sometimes with just 1 In 1 Out it's enough, maybe that kit had triggers so he didn't needed a mic on it.
Mike is a beast!
Uuf!!!lo que improvisa Portnoy es impresionante!!!
came here after watching the luna park video…portnoys playing feels a lot more natural.
Súper great sr portnoy ! Mi favorite drummer
Hell yeah man, you never failed me since my childhood, DT or not... ! :D
Labrie even when he says at the end "thank you good night" ,sounds bad
Hands-down one of the best drummers that has ever lived
Good video. Good song good the drumer always succes
I feel sorry for the beating the sound man probably got for not recording the left bass drum XD
Amazing.
This man is mentor and soul of dream theather.
I think Mike Mangini is one of the single best drummers on the planet but I have to admit that MPortnoy brings more to the DT platform overall.
passion is more needed than skills man
EXTRAORDINARIO 🤘
The best...
The best...
Portnoy
The One And Only !
21:12 - 21:35
Damn that was really cool!
Great 💪💪💪
I could be mistaken but I have this really strong feeling that Portnoy has played these songs a few times.
Top notch energy
That fill at 17:23, DANG!
23:08 dancing to the intro 😆
I'm missing the pingy sound of his ride cymbal haha
Dude, Mangini's ride is super pingy! My favorite types of ride cymbal.
Let's not forget that Labrie is basically reaching his pinnacle of vocal range here guys...
イントロ🎸から、いいし、🥁ドラマーが、素晴らしい
Love Pull Me ever since I heard it in 92 this is their Master of Puppets but did it on the 2nd record.
Что сказать, Спасибо Майк, дай Бог, радуй нас своей Музыкой, Ещё раз, Огромное Спасибо Вам👍🤝🙏🏻
21:30 Nice timing on that catch---straight to cymbal
Mike portnoy is a legend 😊
I love his reactions when he misses his stick flip 😂😂😂. I believe that was the 3rd time he missed it during the 2nd song as he transitions over to his other kit 🤣
Just stumbled upon this video - I’m somewhere in the first few rows. I remember him wearing the Uconn jersey at the Wallingford CT show!
yeah I was at the show as well lol, seen them so many times in Wallingford always an amazing show, obviously miss Portnoy but yeah I thought that was so cool he wore a Uconn jersey

Slalu suksea dn tetap ciptakan music yg berkwlaa!!!

ドラムス🥁を、主流に、すると、より、臨場感ありますね、🎶💨
Dream theater without Mike Portnoy is just a dream (night mare at times :)
Pull me under this the best version for me
Best version on album, not here..
It's His Opinion, So He Said "For Me" (That Means For Him)
And We All Know The Fans Will Say The Album Version Is The Best Version...
And That's Classic!
21:32 perfect landing, gotca ! 😁
Mike Portnoy GOD! The Best!
Sick
I mis u mike pothnoy.ferpomance like this.because i am fans DT.🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🤘🤘🤘
Saudades
Maestro!!!!!!!!
Mike portnoy
i bet mike even chomps on his rice krispies in perfect syncopation to the snap, crackle & pop .
When petruccis guitar sounded amazing live
Mike Portnoy is a double kick drum BEAST.
(I hear both kick drums.)
And the rest is pretty damn amazing too.
He has charisma Mike Mangini just lacks.
Mike has such a flow with how he plays that is missing now
exactly.DT is on a descending slope since mike moved away from.....labrie.
