  • "The Dance of instrumentals" they say. I would say "The Dance of Geniality".
    This is a tribute to one of the best gathering of musicians of all times. The best progressive band ever. Portnoy only version.

      Dont believe everything you see on tv!the whole thing is post processed after in studio with editing and mixing-mastering for the live-dvd Purposes/Many close shots are from the rehearshals of the noun.The wide shots of the camera are from the night live.I happen to be a professional musician and i had the chance having appearances on tv and dvd.This is why you see those special live Dvd's and the performance is out of this world,its not that they dont play really good,but if you go at a live you will understand that this is not close to the finalized material.

      @IshmamAhmed 7 років тому +6

      Triple O.G. Da Truth polar opposite......not really mate . Mangini is actually more skilled, but it's not the skill that makes a drummer better, it's his passion/musicality which is why I'll always consider Portnoy the best, you'll get impressed by hearing mangini nail the notes, true but I'll never dance to that but i'll definitely dance to Portnoy playing

  • @mikec9636

      ​@@bigmoney4685It's not at all unusual for musicians to project like this. It happens in the guitar realm all of the time. Someone is made to feel inadequate by another musician and their ego can't allow them to accept that their work ethic is not as good or they simply lack natural ability so they'll claim another guitarist has no "heart" or has no "feel" and is only "showing off" or some such nonsense. It's true with some, no doubt, but not with all and especially some of the admired giants out there.
      "I put more into one note than they do into 1000." It's like, "Yeah, that's because that one note was more work for you than the 1000 for them. 😅

    Not a big fan of DT's music, but I can watch Portnoy play all day long. He has so much joy and passion when he plays, and a relaxed confidence -- making it look effortless. The music is very complex and difficult to play, but he looks like he's just having an animated conversation with some friends :)

    8:05 - 8:35 is supposed to be one of the most difficult drumming parts to play ever written in any composition.. Even Mangini has struggled to get it all right in his concerts. Portnoy is a killer - look how he plays it flawlessly. Absolute stunner. No equal!

      It's not that hard. It isn't easy but it's mostly just one pattern and doesn't take much energy. Tony Royster Jr. is a much better drummer and could play that in his sleep.

    this right here... is EXACTLY why he can not be replaced by any drummer (not even Mangini which has got to be in the top 2 best drummers in the world nowadays), Portnoy was the heart and soul of the band the same way JP is, and JR, JM, except for James which is the weaker link of them all haha but still i can't imagine the band with someone else on the vocals... it's a freaking shame i never got the chance to see the whole crew together...

      Too bad nobody seems to have heard of Travis Orbin. The guy is twice as young and arguably the best upcoming talent in the world of drumming. Check out his vids and tell me he wont be able to play this. Props to portnoy for doing this, but discovering Travis Orbin convinced me there is a better drummer alive.

    • @felphero
      @felphero 9 років тому +9

      I agree, even back in the day I always thought what MADE Dream Theater was the colaboration of Portnoy, Petruci and Myung. Those three guys formed the central core of DT, you take one of them out and you don't have the same band...and I was right, I honestly hate the last album

    • @irvingalvarado926
      @irvingalvarado926 9 років тому +3

      I find it really inaccurate to tell who's better than whom or who's the most skilled drummer as that would be quite subjective, but most of us agree that MP was a fundamental piece both in the song writing process and as we can se here in the performing of those songs... TO ME the band won't ever be as good as back in the day... they've lost an irreplaceable part... i'll still go to their concerts but to hear them play their old songs live... I'm still hoping for a reunion. (hopefully before they're too old)...
