Saw this tour in Hollywood! Sooo kick ass! They did four songs together: Comfortably Numb, Take Hold Of The Flame, Peruvian Skies, and Won't Get Fooled Again! Both bands and James/Geoff singing on stage together! My favorite concert encore...ever!
I'm a DT fan and a Queensryche fan, mindcrime is still one of the greatest albums ever. Could you imagine if Tate was ever DT's singer. Tate's voice and DT's songs = eargasm
Say what you want about Nick Mason, but he plays exactly what's appropriate for this song. The drumming during the first verse and chorus are atrocious--syncopated bass drum/cymbal hits all over the place, making it sounded really disjointed instead of smooth. He can't decide whether he wants to swing it or play it straight. Don't screw around because you're bored with "boring" parts. If it's not musical, it doesn't belong.
@XhibiChise John Petrucci es uno de los guitarristas con más pasión en el mundo. Uno de los más rápidos, con mejor técnica, habilidad, talento y sentimiento. Me compadezco de tu ignorancia sobre el tema...
@MaximumPayne12 Soy asidua fan de DT desde que tengo una apreciación musical más amplia, cinco años. Me encanta Petrucci, es genial, su técnica es perfecta, es apasionado por su instrumento. El problema, es que no lo expresa, y eso es vital para un músico, yo sólo veo a un robot y no por eso estoy hablando de un mal guitarrista. ;) En lo personal no me logró conectar con "sentimiento".
@XhibiChise Debe ser cuestión de gustos. No creo que sea vital en absoluto que un guitarrista tenga que retorcerse o hacer muecas exageradas (como la mayoría hacen) para dar una excelente ejecución en su instrumento y en su posición como músico. En mi caso llevo un poco más de 10 años en esto de la música, principalmente en rock y metal.
@MaximumPayne12 John es un EXCELENTE guitarrista, pero como bien dices, es cosa de gustos. En lo personal al verlo en vivo es algo desabrido sólo ver dedos moviéndose, por supuesto, antes no me molestaba. Pero estudio un instrumento clasico, y dentro de las clases se nos enseña lo vital que es la expresión.
@MaximumPayne12 Concuerdo totalmente contigo. He oído a muchos guitarristas que tienen una técnica impresionante, pero que no imprimen mucha emoción al tocar la guitarra (no quiere decir que sean malos o:) Sin embargo, Petrucci tiene un gran talento, una gran velocidad y una enorme pasión :D (sólo escuchen el solo final de In the Name of God del disco Budokan, por Dios xD)
"HELLO! is their ANYBODY in there??" "Wake-Up" YOUR Country is being taken-over by Zionist/Jewish Bankers who are deceivingly orchestrating the Whole WORLD-WIDE DEMISE!! The WORLD-WIDE monetary collapse is NOT just a "Coincident!" It's been designed to take TOTAL CONTROL over the Worlds Population! It is called... "The New World (Parasitic) Order!" Read: wake-upbeforeitstoolate(dot)com and see how we have ALL been massively LIED to! Roger Walters Knows this It's called.. "The WALL!"
@MaximumPayne12 Sorry, I assumed it was Petrucci because I'm more familiar with Dream Theater than Queensryche, and I'm used to seeing him with long hair, so it looked like him to begin with. Okay, done the necessary research, I amend my previous statement to "Wilton fumbled that first solo." And there's really no need to call me a moron.
@MaximumPayne12 Yeah, I picked up on that. Googled "John Petrucci 2003" and lo and behold! Short hair. But yeah. His solo kicked ass. Faith in him has been restored. Wish I could say the same for LaBrie though... I've never been the biggest fan of his vocals, and the fact he forgot the lyrics... for shame, for shame.
@Friiiiick Hehe yeah, unfortunately James forgot the lyrics but this isn't an official video after all. I'm glad he has performed some bad ass vocals later like in the concert: Score, he kicked serious ass. Also the new DT album is amazing ;)
@MaximumPayne12 Ahh, is it? I haven't got it yet, I'm a student and therefore always poor. Spent most of the last of my spare money on Steven Wilson's latest and tickets to Opeth's UK tour. Yeah, LaBrie's a great vocalist, fantastic range and emotion and that, but I've never really been a fan of his tone. Bit nasal for me. Luckily the rest of DT are awesome enough that I can overlook it ;)
@axllovesslash First off, I've already had this discussion with the uploader. I realise that Petrucci nailed his solo, but I thought he was doing the first, not the second. The first solo (done by Mike Wilton) is distinctly fumbled.
@TrueIronMaidenFan1:55. He sang "I can't explain, this is not how I am", then mumbled a bit because he realised he'd done it wrong. It's actually "I can't explain, you would not understand, this is not how I am". And I know Wilton's a great guitarist, but he still fumbled it. He completely overbent one note at 2:17, then missed another a couple notes later at 2:20, and missed out a grace note, a slide and a note at 2:32. Trust me, I know that solo back to front.
@Friiiiick well i dont know the lyrics that well, im am not a Pink Floyd Fan AT ALL! granted their a very gifted band musicly, just not my type. I saw Wilton live hes amazing. James labrie got 5 words wrong, get over it, all vocal gods mess up sometimes, and his voice is beautiful even on the part he messed up on
I am not a follower of either of these bands. I know Queensryche. Never heard of Dream theater. I am a huge fan of covers. I love them and search them out. I will say that this is a very good cover. No doubt. It just goes to show you how many great guitar players and artists that are out there today.
Let's not forget who wrote this. No band like PF, that's for sure! Dream Theater is like extreme on the heavy side Floyd, and Radiohead, perhaps, the opposite, the "light" Floyd. You gotta admit, two bands to be an extension of the most beautiful piece of music that lastet from 1967. to 1996.
@jamesinct ofcourse he's dead on. he's john fuckign petruccci!!!!! too bad labrie diarohhoaed all over the best part of the song . the david gilmour chorus.
Dream Theater - 4 virtuosi and a bad karaoke singer. I love them, really, but c'mon man! It must have taken years to find the kind of talent this band has, then they got the first singer that tried out? Does he own the equipment or something?
This is a great song, but I couldnt help but laugh at 1:50 when I saw Portnoy drumming with one hand, and playing the tambourine in the other, and the hitting the tambourine with his drumstick for a good rhythm. Portnoy simply does not fit in as "background"!!!!!
didn't like the all the video. matter of fact some parts a extremly out of tune seems like someone in the band was sleeping while playing his instrument. BUT !!!! what fucking hell o solo in the end, it's probably the best cover of the original solo.
If you all Love progressive metal you HAVE!! to check out Black Atom Reign! They just posted this song. "Raising The Shadow"! YOU'"" LOVE IT!! wow. Its ridiculous.
Petrucci nailed the solo, brilliant, if I was a lady I guarantee you my vagina would have become moist upon listening & watching his fingerbanging action on that axe!
ahahaha, yeahh not impressed in the least bit. seen Comfortably Numb live, performed by Roger Waters, this does not compare. sorry dreamtheatre but you should just leave this to the professionals aka The Pink Floyd...
AMAZING. I love this song and to hear Dream Theater contribute to this live version WOW. Best I have ever heard. Geoff Tate is awesome. Petrucci? God on guitar my favorite living guitar player. I know all of his material.
I love how neither singer tries to overpower eachother. Especially considering they both originate from bands of bombast. They both know their parts and support each other, Geoff low and James high. I also find James's little messup charming.
Should've just been Dream Theater playing this. Listen to the way they played all of DSOTM. The guys from Queensryche ruined it for me, especially the outro solo
can anyone tell me why the final part of this song/solo, the guitar sounds don`t relate to the guitarists hand movements? it`s acurate until the end then nothing (guitar wise) matches??
this is for the comment about bach and mozart does it accur either one of you that zepplin,pink floyd, the who, among the other greats one day will be catorgorized as classical music?... just a thought.
This is an ok version, just ok. Nowhere on the same playing field as Pink Floyd IMO. I know David Gilmour is an extremely hard man to try and emulate, but he wasn't even close on the solo. I love the way Gilmour plays, he just let's the guitar notes soar.
@PaulGilbertrulezzz It's unfortunately what happens when some people do straight covers. it sounds like he's just playing the notes; not feeling them...
I got goosebumps... Micheal Wilton (Queensryche guitarist) looks like he had his brother died since Chris DeGarmo's departure from the band, and it feels like he is really enjoying John Petrucci's company here. Geoff Tate is probably the most underrated but most talented rock-metal singer of all time, maybe after Freddie Mercury. James LaBrie shines when it comes to mellow songs (just listen to Wait for Sleep). Great musicians, great bands, great song, great music. God bless them all.
Wow How Awesomely great is this! Geoff Tates Voice is the greatest, i will forgive geoff for his howie mandelll look!. the thing is i love howie mandell but not u geoff!
Guys i can tell no one on this page has ever went to a pink floyd concert...I have and when the hole band was together...These guys are only a tribute band.. and they love doing Pink Floyd because its easy to play
@DWcriticism please stop going over every coversong of pink floyd and saying that it sucks. you find it sucks, i and a lot of other people think it does not. please be accurate. You should say: I THINK it sucks in stead of it sucks. and another thing, not all PF is easy. not for any particular instrument. i thought drums were easy till i had to cover some of the songs. you really have to study.
@paulthegeek just based on this song, and this particular time period(2002-2005) James was better then Geoff. but other then that Geoff Tate is better, his voice has made a full recovery, and IMO is the 2nd best rock singer of all time, id say James is #15, which is still good obviously
DT does a few Floyd songs very well......Time for instance.... and the only decent cover anyone has ever done that does justice to an Iron Maiden song is DT doing To Tame A Land
Geoff Tate and James Labrie are litterely a 1000 times better then Guilmore and Waters vocaly and Queensryche and Dream Theatre are litterely a 1000 times better of bands then Pink Floyd.
@TrueIronMaidenFan That statement may be true in the overall talent department (Petrucci f'n rules, no doubt). But this song is about songwriting skills, and I doubt anyone but Pink Floyd could write this masterpiece. Queens and 'theater might have 1000x better musicians, but 'Floyd has 1000x more album sales and touched 1,000,000,000,000x more souls. Don't get me wrong,man; I'd never rip on a fellow rocker and metal brother, but likey 'Floyd inspired both these great bands! Rawk hard!
@j1001s27sw Mate you're confused..It's not about sales..It's about talent and inteligence..You can't categorise Pink Floyd.Pink Floyd is not just a rock band like the others..Pink Floyd is something more than that..And it's not an opinion..That's the truth..They are equal to Bach and Mozart..They created their own style in the rock industry and they overruned all the other bands and not only bands!!And how can you say dream theater has better musicians??Better than Gilmour,Waters,Wright,Mason??
@dgmj1 Dude, you would have to read the guys comment I replied to to get what I was saying. And no, they are not equal to Bach and Mozart!!! No band or musician is even on par with Bach or Mozart. If someone was even close, such as Frank Zappa or Miles Davis, they are still very very very far away. It certainly would not be a rock band, it would have to be classical or jazz.
@j1001s27sw Frank Zappa was close to Bach and Mozart and Pink Floyd was not??What made you come to this conclusion man?I am so curious!!As I said Pink Floyd is not just a rock band..You can't categorise Pink Floyd's music because it's not only rock!!Have you ever listened to "echoes"?Or "sauceful of secrets"?Their music was not only rock.They had classical influences,jazz and blues and they created psychedelic music!!That's why I'm saying that they are equal to Bach and Mozart.
@dgmj1 I'm familiar with all Pink Floyd albums as I am also a fan. As well as a fan of Bach cello suites, all of Frank Zappa and the Mothers, and Miles Davis. And you misread; even the closest musicians are still very very very far away from Bach and Mozart.
@j1001s27sw Ok I don't want to argue with you..You have an opinion and I have mine..The important thing is that we like good music such as Floyd and Dream Theater..And Miles Davis of course!!
@TrueIronMaidenFan I think you are liying to yourself mate!!You see Pink Floyd is the biggest band ever and maybe something more..And it's not an opinion..it's the truth!!!The guys here are doing a very good job covering the best guitar solo ever made and one of the best songs ever made..But that's all...When you're thinking of Pink Floyd your mind goes directly to the influence their music had,has and will have..Not only in the rock music but in the history of music!!And it's Gilmour!!
And Gilmour is even 1000 times more precise in execution than Petrucci, if you don't think so just listen to any live of comfortably numb and compare to this one. I recommend Pulse.
@Sledr1994 Man i think so...in 60' 70' 80' EVEN 90' THE EFFECTS Were maded by amplificators not fuKKing pedals ^^.That show who is an trully talented guitaris or who is just an guitarist :D.Anyway DT is the cosest to Perfection ;) RESPECT! (sry for my english) :D
Don't understand why ANYONE'S gender has ANYTHING to do with enjoying a performance that you like.?? Does someone's preference in sexual activities determine whether or not they are a good enough artist? "Ignorance and Prejudice"..."and fear walk hand in hand!"...
@quesopilipinas41 the only way i could tell it was rob halford was the fact that if it was rob then he'd probably have a huge cock in his ass doing some judas priest screams
@dkennedy31326 your moms black dick is so far up your ass that cum is oozing out your tone def ears you trailer trashed douch bag! Rob Halford and Judas Priest are amazign!
@TrueIronMaidenFan i never said they sucked. rob's got a great metal voice but he openly takes it up the ass just like freddy mercury. don't make assumptions and don't get your panties in a wad over somebody you don't know.
@MrDweeb uh huh, a pair of financially well off fat fuckers that've made some very good music. This is about the music and your dumbass mentions their weight. lmao. Now s t f u , go upstairs outta the basement and get some more twinkies yourself, you jackwagon.
@stratocat74 I would like to see you up there on stage in front of 50,000+ fans, playin a song made famous by opink floyd themselves, I never saw what your talkin about on how queensryche played the song, I think they played it perfect, dream theater did a few parts that was'nt originally in the song, but both bands still played extrememly great.
@flubber342 Ok,...like shit was a little to much.But if you listen close enough,they very often play wrong notes,got timing problems and somehow they have got a very nervous tone.Im only talking about the solo parts.
As soon as Petrucci starts playing it feels much more controled and tastefull,blablabla...
Anyway,I have seen Queensryche back in 91(in front of 50000)and they were brilliant.

Say what you want about Nick Mason, but he plays exactly what's appropriate for this song. The drumming during the first verse and chorus are atrocious--syncopated bass drum/cymbal hits all over the place, making it sounded really disjointed instead of smooth. He can't decide whether he wants to swing it or play it straight. Don't screw around because you're bored with "boring" parts. If it's not musical, it doesn't belong.

can anyone tell me why the final part of this song/solo, the guitar sounds don`t relate to the guitarists hand movements? it`s acurate until the end then nothing (guitar wise) matches??

@inyourdreamsladdie I think Queensryche have two guitarists, so there's probably another dude wailing that the camera doesn't necessarily show!

It's more than OK. Both bands agreed on a tune they loved and wanted to emulate.
liamtz 5 months ago
This is an ok version, just ok. Nowhere on the same playing field as Pink Floyd IMO. I know David Gilmour is an extremely hard man to try and emulate, but he wasn't even close on the solo. I love the way Gilmour plays, he just let's the guitar notes soar.

I got goosebumps... Micheal Wilton (Queensryche guitarist) looks like he had his brother died since Chris DeGarmo's departure from the band, and it feels like he is really enjoying John Petrucci's company here. Geoff Tate is probably the most underrated but most talented rock-metal singer of all time, maybe after Freddie Mercury. James LaBrie shines when it comes to mellow songs (just listen to Wait for Sleep). Great musicians, great bands, great song, great music. God bless them all.

@DWcriticism please stop going over every coversong of pink floyd and saying that it sucks. you find it sucks, i and a lot of other people think it does not. please be accurate. You should say: I THINK it sucks in stead of it sucks. and another thing, not all PF is easy. not for any particular instrument. i thought drums were easy till i had to cover some of the songs. you really have to study.

@paulthegeek just based on this song, and this particular time period(2002-2005) James was better then Geoff. but other then that Geoff Tate is better, his voice has made a full recovery, and IMO is the 2nd best rock singer of all time, id say James is #15, which is still good obviously

TrueIronMaidenFan 6 months ago
@TrueIronMaidenFan That statement may be true in the overall talent department (Petrucci f'n rules, no doubt). But this song is about songwriting skills, and I doubt anyone but Pink Floyd could write this masterpiece. Queens and 'theater might have 1000x better musicians, but 'Floyd has 1000x more album sales and touched 1,000,000,000,000x more souls. Don't get me wrong,man; I'd never rip on a fellow rocker and metal brother, but likey 'Floyd inspired both these great bands! Rawk hard!

TrueIronMaidenFan 6 months ago
@j1001s27sw Mate you're confused..It's not about sales..It's about talent and inteligence..You can't categorise Pink Floyd.Pink Floyd is not just a rock band like the others..Pink Floyd is something more than that..And it's not an opinion..That's the truth..They are equal to Bach and Mozart..They created their own style in the rock industry and they overruned all the other bands and not only bands!!And how can you say dream theater has better musicians??Better than Gilmour,Waters,Wright,Mason??
dgmj1 5 months ago
@dgmj1 Dude, you would have to read the guys comment I replied to to get what I was saying. And no, they are not equal to Bach and Mozart!!! No band or musician is even on par with Bach or Mozart. If someone was even close, such as Frank Zappa or Miles Davis, they are still very very very far away. It certainly would not be a rock band, it would have to be classical or jazz.
j1001s27sw 5 months ago
@j1001s27sw Frank Zappa was close to Bach and Mozart and Pink Floyd was not??What made you come to this conclusion man?I am so curious!!As I said Pink Floyd is not just a rock band..You can't categorise Pink Floyd's music because it's not only rock!!Have you ever listened to "echoes"?Or "sauceful of secrets"?Their music was not only rock.They had classical influences,jazz and blues and they created psychedelic music!!That's why I'm saying that they are equal to Bach and Mozart.
dgmj1 5 months ago
@dgmj1 I'm familiar with all Pink Floyd albums as I am also a fan. As well as a fan of Bach cello suites, all of Frank Zappa and the Mothers, and Miles Davis. And you misread; even the closest musicians are still very very very far away from Bach and Mozart.
j1001s27sw 5 months ago
@j1001s27sw Ok I don't want to argue with you..You have an opinion and I have mine..The important thing is that we like good music such as Floyd and Dream Theater..And Miles Davis of course!!
dgmj1 5 months ago
@TrueIronMaidenFan I think you are liying to yourself mate!!You see Pink Floyd is the biggest band ever and maybe something more..And it's not an opinion..it's the truth!!!The guys here are doing a very good job covering the best guitar solo ever made and one of the best songs ever made..But that's all...When you're thinking of Pink Floyd your mind goes directly to the influence their music had,has and will have..Not only in the rock music but in the history of music!!And it's Gilmour!!
dgmj1 5 months ago
@TrueIronMaidenFan
So why Pink Floyd never did a DT or QR cover?
And Gilmour is even 1000 times more precise in execution than Petrucci, if you don't think so just listen to any live of comfortably numb and compare to this one. I recommend Pulse.

@stratocat74 I would like to see you up there on stage in front of 50,000+ fans, playin a song made famous by opink floyd themselves, I never saw what your talkin about on how queensryche played the song, I think they played it perfect, dream theater did a few parts that was'nt originally in the song, but both bands still played extrememly great.
flubber342 7 months ago
@flubber342 Ok,...like shit was a little to much.But if you listen close enough,they very often play wrong notes,got timing problems and somehow they have got a very nervous tone.Im only talking about the solo parts.
As soon as Petrucci starts playing it feels much more controled and tastefull,blablabla...
Anyway,I have seen Queensryche back in 91(in front of 50000)and they were brilliant.
