He sounds great in this setting. No matter what he does, he sounds like himself. His personality comes through. He is a legend and a hero to many. Much respect.
I was sad before watching this video... now my skin is full of dots and my body is covered with motions and there is only a smile on my face. I love you, Mike.
Yeah I agree in this performance there's nothing out of this world technically, alot of advanced drummers could probably play this easily, but with Mike it's about the energy and style that makes him such a great drummer.
He is truly the greatest drummer. I've had the honor of watching him play live 4 times. 2 times with Dream Theater, once with Avenged Sevenfold, and once with Adrenaline Mob.
Mike Portnoy hands down is the greatest live drummer to ever live.. always has the best sounds out of his kits and cymbals and seems to always know the perfect touches for songs . That and he’s so great with the audiences .
From ARGENTINA I salute you Mike , all my respect to your work , I follow all ypur proyects that your're involved and more I hear more I pops your Work , A REALY MUSICIAN OF OUR TIME 🤘🤘
I met him at a drum clinic in YOnkers New York when i was 13(30now) Didnt know who he was or who DT was but my dad was like hey lets go check this guy out. I was so floored by the stuff he did bc at that time nothing i grew up listening to sounded like the Awake album. Changed my whole drumming world after that. Since then im a huge fan he's m fav drummer. I have listened to the new DT album once all the way through and i cant listen to it again,i agree 100% with what you said, its not the same
The x-hats are 16" AAx-Plosion Hats. The regular hats are the 14" AAX-Plosion Hats. The Crashes are (from OUR view left to right): Manta Ray, Bash Ride, AAX Recording Crash, Artisan Crash, Freq Crash, Chaos China, HHX Groove Crash. Hope this helps. If ya need sizes, I can help ya out. lol
I agree. And what people miss is that music isn't all about being hard to play. Just because he was in DT people expect him to be all over the place with time signatures, polyrhytms and whatnot. Just let the man play whatever he wants, and likes!
Genial de NECTAR y muchas gracias por compartir la música que nos une. 🤜🎵🎶🤛💯❌💯 Y un gran saludo de la banda " N E C T A R power trío ".!!! Great from NECTAR and thank you very much for sharing the music that unites us. 🤜🎵🎶🤛💯❌💯 And a big shout out from the band " N E C T A R power trio". !!!
People criticize his playing as being simple. It's the way he plays his music that is anything but simple. He's a pro, he makes it look easy, because its just natural for him. Also, anyone can cover a song written by a great drummer, but its writing like one that earns you respect and credibility. Not because you do DT covers on UA-cam.
Se nota una madures musical en Mike en este tema. Es un músico que se esta reinventando y evolucionando su música, explorando otras alternativas. Me parece que es el baterista mas completo que existe (pienso yo). Es genial este tema, estilo simple y a la vez cortante, este señor es un genio del instrumento!!!
oh my god I thought the video skipped back to the beginning of the solo .. took me a bit before I realized it was supposed to be that way for whatever reason. MP, you are one Badass man, keep up the excellent work \m/
Mike found himself in this group. Plays quite like the style and technique. dt music was also quite complex, more melodic and hard rock to be doing here, I loved it.
mike portnoy is my #1 favorite drummer u cant match his style and and they way he plays like its nothing for him. i can only hope that i can be as great as him one day.
E aí, Mike Portnoy! Blz? Na minha modesta opinião, não há melhor baterista do mundo do Rock do que você atualmente! Saudosos todos os outros tantos imortais, a exemplo de Neil Peart, sensacional, incrível.... Sou grande fã de vocês que fazem da vida a arte imprescindível! Abraço
If you realise, Mike plays first with his secondary hi hats and then, when the guitar solo starts again, he plays with his main hi hats....... so actually, is another shoot of the song, and not a problem with the video. Greetings!
He sounds great in this setting. No matter what he does, he sounds like himself. His personality comes through. He is a legend and a hero to many. Much respect.
After Neil.... The best drumer... Just like thar!!!
R.I.P! Neil Peart!!
Portnoy you are amazing!
no matter what they say, he's legendary, one of the most inspirational drummer to all drummer in the world
cikei he just has a rough time with people. It’s just a personality thing.
Exactly .
Lol. No
This performance is still satisfying in every way.
God this guy is awesome. His kit sounds amazing!

Great sounding cymbals, love the kit, sounds epic! Sabian is the best

He is truly the greatest drummer. I've had the honor of watching him play live 4 times. 2 times with Dream Theater, once with Avenged Sevenfold, and once with Adrenaline Mob.

His playing is as good as ever. He's playing what he wants to be playing.

Não há o que dizer de fato, é o baterista mais influente dos últimos 25 anos.
There were many greats before Mike, but he is now the greatest of our time and for a long time to come!
One of my all time favorites
Perfect!

All the cymbals are really great.... specially i like the left front 16 inch crash, the china and obviously the ozone splash.... \\Heal yeah//
This version is so much heavier than the album version.i get goose bumps everytime I watch this vid.
Simply amazing!
Man. I second your concern...
The x-hats are 16" AAx-Plosion Hats. The regular hats are the 14" AAX-Plosion Hats.

That AA China sounds so freaking sick. Want so bad!

Great performance!
good job mike !!
If you realise, Mike plays first with his secondary hi hats and then, when the guitar solo starts again, he plays with his main hi hats....... so actually, is another shoot of the song, and not a problem with the video. Greetings!
Respect!
I Love You Mike! so f*cking Great!! You are the best!!!
Oh my god ... very good
