    Really wish these guys got more recognition. Everyone I've shown them to loves them. They're an amazing band and they've got what I consider to be the greatest metal vocalist of all time.

      You right ! Without Russell Allen on vocals, I probably don't follow them since TDWOT album.

      +Thomas Duchein You want a DVD? Let's buy shit from SX and go to their concerts so they have the money to film the DVD! Last CD was wrote and recorded in one month at Mike Romeo's house!

    • @mythocrat
      @mythocrat 7 років тому +7

      This is not a good argument to not releasing a DVD. There are many bands that have a DVD and which do not have the same as resources Symphony X have. So, this is a question of will not of resource.

    • @erlikquadros5873
      @erlikquadros5873 7 років тому

      Of course it is. They won't deliver less than they're capable of. And it takes resources that might not be avaliable or they have other priorities. We must not judge and support them!

    • @mythocrat
      @mythocrat 7 років тому

      Erlik Quadros, we support them, it is not judging it is complaining xD

    • @erlikquadros5873

      I only said this because a friend of mine was at their gig at São Paulo and asked this same question at the M&G: And they said they had no money to make a DVD now! Record labels won't do anything!

    Respect Mr. Mike Pinella, the only one talking gear himself
    Thanks for that! When a musician keeps his gear simple, everyone hears him better.

    • @BeardedDanishViking
      @BeardedDanishViking 7 років тому +4

      Uhm. How does that follow? Neither sound quality nor musician is not affected by the complexity or amount of gear.

    • @MikeBsMovies
      @MikeBsMovies 7 років тому +2

      Years of seeing guitar dudes buy fucking massive racks with a stupid amount of gear only for it to sound like fuzz. Often the dude with the massive rack gear will be accompanied by a dude with nothing but a 5150 and a cab. 5150 guy( or JCM2000 or Switchblade or whatever) usually blows rack guy out of the water tone wise.
      I've been to a looot of gigs, man. This is usually how it turns out.

    • @BeardedDanishViking
      @BeardedDanishViking 7 років тому +2

    I was so glad to hear when Michael stopped using those nasty Line6 heads live and started using his Engl’s. His live tone has been SOOO much better since.

    Michael Pinella is technically on a par with other virtuoso keyboardists. His first solo album is mind-blowing. Too bad he has always kept such a low profile.

    When they came to Chile, i was working as stage crew/hand and i've meet the drum tech, wich calls himself snowflake (and i get to know why) and he is so sweeeeeet, i mean, what an amazing guy, probably one of the most kind person i have meet on a gig, he even teach me a lot of tricks and how he does the job, such a pleasure man.

    The MJR should be modded with Luminlays just so he doesn't have to use a hole puncher before the show.

    I can see sansamp at the top of Michael's rack, his tech says that he used poweramps only in Fireballs, does it mean that Sansamp is his preamp?

    Very low gain on the amps I see.... then slamming it with the OD... 🧐.

  • @dreamsdreams9493
    @dreamsdreams9493 3 роки тому +6

    Pinellas was the inventive brain in SymphonyX. Since 2010 the creative direction has been led only by Romeo and it has definitely twisted the band's magic and style. The last two albums are awful. I do miss SymphonyX's progressive and classical style.
    It would be extremely fascinating listening to Mr Pinella playing some piano masterpieces. I know he is a classically trained pianist. I hope he records a classical piano album someday.

    • @hopeisonlyadream
      @hopeisonlyadream 2 роки тому +8

      They just got tired of playing neo classical metal for more than 15 years, the last 2 albums are far from awful, they're just not neo classical, bands need to move on, you can't play the same things forever. Symphony x is already very predictable in terms of the structure of a song and the singing, they had to make a change of style.

    • @keyboardwarria
      @keyboardwarria 11 місяців тому

      ​@@hopeisonlyadreamthat's true they needed to move on but I still prefer their earlier music. Guys like yngwie who never moved on kinda got left behind

    • @treyxaviermusic
      @treyxaviermusic  6 років тому +2

      Yeah we always have a very limited amount of time to shoot these and getting proper sound onstage to capture the tone is nearly impossible
