Portnoy wrong in 6:22.....

[Ibanezdude9321]

4 people dont like this video :) straight to the point.

[brittneystevenson]

4 people are in the presence of enemies 

[HotakXvi]

His drumset is so huge! I've never seen one like it. I used to not care about DT but know i think they are amazing!

[Kaffekopable]

@HotakXvi Their new drummers drumset is even larger! :)

[DimebagDarrel15]

STOP comparing mike to God.

I mean he's good and all but he aint no Mike

[6ixstringed]

@DimebagDarrel15 Took my 3 times to read it... but totally worth it

[zeroadn1]

There are 4 Avenged 7fold fans that doesent like God Mike in DT!

[Bartdehunk]

If I ever got the opportunity to go to a Dream Theater show, they got to play this song!!!

[down2despair]

4 person's have a shit on their ears

[JOB314fgh]

i stopped porn for this, but kept masturbating

[CrowsKillsShit]

great people may leave great bands, they leave a mark where they pass, that's why theyb are great people. Mike Portnoy is a naturalborndrummer

[bolesmian]

but there's another mike 

[1SINNED11]

4 people disliked god

[Riffeater]

4 people don't know Dream Theater...

[bassistchrisist]

that is music

[Ugallardo]

One of the best JP solos here. Very simple but amazing. It makes me cry sometimes.

[endrasthia]

@Ugallardo ME TOOOO IS SUBLIME!

[GuitarsOfArp]

what a fucking drumset!!! He´s barely using half of it! Just a wall of drums!!!

[PwN3RSh0t]

@GuitarsOfArp Maybe for one song, but for a concert he uses everything

[dctrtuba1]

Man what an awesome chart.

[VirgyGuillot]

Metaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaal

James marry me xD

[Scalismas656]

7:36 "All i ada..va..de..ternityyyyy!"

[boxdragosddd]

at 7:36 James LaBrie didn't make a mistake he sing that part soo hight that the amplifiers went wrong DT ROCKED IT ROCKS AND DT WILL ROCK FOREVER

[bassistchrisist]

this is the absolutly best band ever. live is like the album version o_O

[soccermetallicaak47]

i simply love Dream Theater and they are really great musicians.

but i find their on stage body language a bit sissy. especially john petrucci and james labrie's style on stage.

it would be great if the add some style to their performance which shows their passion for playing(which obviously they have).

this is just my opinion.

observe petrucci and labrie in this video from 5:50 to 6:30 and you will get my point

[scotty2scoops]

@soccermetallicaak47 so what, it sounds great and that's all that should matter

[TheCreaturesWalk]

@turtleshells118 Agreed.

[SASPython]

Awsome performance but i gotta admit, and i hate to be the one to say it, but LaBrie isnt on his game in this one. Hes not terrible but it does sound like hes struggling a bit, some timing issues too in those paraddidle parts.

[turtleshells118]

2 people lack hand mouse click coordination.

[luferludertgarcia]

who the fuck disliked this

[LikeAPierrot69]

@luferludertgarcia fags who have a dislike for good music

[7758roy]

best song EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fretsonfire18]

Insuperables..:)

[mariolecompt]

whoever disliked this,....... for god's sake.

[giantegoist57]

[giantegoist57]

pt1-pt2

[giantegoist57]

I'm a fan, but one thing's always bothered me about DT. They always sound EXACTLY the same live as on the album. I guess they're precise and all, but still differing from the album a little is what makes live performances so awesome. I guess in that way Maiden is better.

[SuperStrt]

@giantegoist57 I cannot agree with you, especially jordan plays different things. I don´t say that in this performance but generally, yes.

[abhimuscat]

8:00 to 9:00, Rudess reminds us why hes God. i mean doing that solo with two hands is impossible, he does with his right hand and left is doing something else entirely!!! JR+JP>>all metal bands put together

[camo190280]

simply outstanding...my all time favourite DT song.

[cjcookie]

pt1>pt2

[dctrtuba1]

So awesome. What a great group of musicians. If you want to show how appreciative you are of your God-given talent, bust your tail and master it, like these guys have.

[bartmann40]

grande los dream siempre geniales!!!!!!

[raibhulmago33]

thumbs up if u want to kick the first one to dislike's balls.

[amithabajan2]

@ kim1567 and he uses it awesomely, as well his iphone

[kim1567]

jordan has 2 iPad on his keyboard.

[ParadisiacalUnknown]

This is an incredibly advanced group of musicians making beautiful music. Refreshing to hear after having an argument with a couple of teenagers who thought that the amount of skill that a certain genre of music takes is opinion-based. They were arguing that, in their opinion, Rap takes more talent and skill to create/perform that Classical or Metal; or Jazz.

[91nickt]

@ParadisiacalUnknown wow, boy are they on crack

[tsarumagar]

It should be OST in an epic movie....

[SohrabF]

WHO DARES TO DISLIKE THIS EPIC?!!

[colonelkermit]

labrie NAILED it.

jesus christ.

great performance.

[bartmann40]

etso es alucinante,desde el punto de vista que lo quieras ver.son lo mas grande que aparecio en estos ultimos años!!!!!!

[palmera62820]

nice recording

[killemall13A]

this is music only for people who is able to understand it.

alucinante!de lo mejor que ecuche!!!!

[sssudra]

I hope one day again I see this line up live again playing this song ! Awesome Video of my fav DT song ! 

[Metallicafan002]

The crowd's like ''Holy Shit =O'

[UpTheIrons441]

Good vocal performance from LaBrie (Y)

[TuNdRaTuRtL3]

I can't even comprehend all the time signatures in this song

[Mohamed636]

I wonder what Labrie does back there when hes waiting during the instrumental parts

[ginjeeimano]

@Mohamed636 he has his own place it looks like a tent :D

[CentiZen]

@Mohamed636 Drinks alot of hot water and gets the best seat in the house :)

[funnyfeeling101]

@Mohamed636 he's taking a shit.

[5nugg]

4:30 - audience, please stop clapping except if you can keep up with the odd time signatures and not a regular 4/4. dream theater fans should know better.

[ObscureAlchemist]

@5nugg I agree. You'd think the fans of music like this would realize.

[s1c4r1o]

GRANDE PETRUCCI

[Scalismas656]

0 dislikes. Damn straight

[Emanu526]

exelent video

exelent sound

exelent band

[dolanforever1]

all two parts are amazing

[FSPilot10]

It pisses me off that hardly anyone I know has any clue of Dream Theater's existence. They deserve way more recognition than they get. Petrucci is a god of strung instruments and Portnoy is the God of percussion. 'Nuff said.

[AceMasterDX]

@FSPilot10 One problem, Mike quit the band... :(

[Master22062]

@AceMasterDX but another Mike joined it...and he is great too ;)

[cheesybread21]

@Master22062 But not as great... I think the only person that will ever be truly greater than Mike Portnoy is Max Portnoy. That's right, his son is a badass drummer too.

[nouhta]

@AceMasterDX and that is the fuckin saddest thing in mankinds history...

[Arcterion]

@AceMasterDX Only to join Avenged Sevenfold afterwards. What the fuck was he thinking?

Although I heard they kicked him out for some reason, lol.

[AceMasterDX]

@Arcterion He only joined them for the tour, not as a part of the band

[Tedericoe]

They're making Priest a movie, the graphic novel this song was inspired by.

[lordcroesus]

Not a great performance but an awesome track and a brilliant recording! Thanks for sharing

[aepoisac]

I am not against Mike's decision, but it makes me feel sad when I think that I will not see him playing with DT again. They were greatest musicians ever...

[MrTeslasRevenge]

@aepoisac You're right I don't know how they will go on with out him he is such a flawless drummer I saw DT this summer with Iron Maiden and Portnoy's playing was by far better than anyone elses there. I may be a little bias because I'm a drummer but WOW he was fuckin amazing!

[barcafan666]

this IS the best fucn band on earth

[Marcoking1394]

woow you have a great hearing! i also heard that but until i red your comment!

but anyway DT ROCKS!

[zhanix]

aw.... portnoy commited a mistake at part 0:22 to 0:29.. if u know the song, u'll recognize it... and u can hear JP is ahead of the rest because JR and JM are following MP... JP had to stop for a while to wait for the other guys at part 0:29...

[DrumBum1244]

@zhanix That just goes to show that even though mike messed up, they have the talent to get back on track. GOD THEY ARE SO GOOD.

[zhanix]

@DrumBum1244 so very right dude.... ^^ they are all gods!!!!

[thedangdanger]

Dayam they are just SOO freakin GOOD~!!!

[salvador30100]

dream theater les meilleurs

[uh1m]

I Believe that this guys are not humans... too much perfection

[skaterxxx435]

i love how the singer just randomly comes on and busts into amazing vocals.

[deathscythekim729]

Petrucci: Nailed it!!

[6ixstringed]

Beautiful when they start playing in canon, and the drums and bass come in. Goodbye, Mike Portnoy!

[maxinator96]

Great sound quality! Or is that just the band?

[Durs11290]

"Seated venues" nobody really sits lol when i saw em we all stood.. there WERE seats no reason to use em.. was too epic.. plus in the case petrucci went 1 billion notes per second i didnt want the chair to disappear into thin air and leave me on the ground

[PeaTearGriffin4]

why couldnt the camera have focused on petrucci at the very end when he goes crazy on the frets?

[haiguiz]

Omg at 4:40 the audience's claps actually stayed onbeat throughout the whole part. That's something you never hear at a show xD

[aelathavel]

@haiguiz well it is Dream Theatre, everything about them is great including the fans.

[aelathavel]

@haiguiz well it is Dream Theater, everything about them is great including the fans.

[chrokee100]

ROCKアーティストがフュージョンを演奏してるって感じ

[giantegoist57]

man i love the first 10 secs of this song. it just throws you right in and lets you know that you are dealing with the best band in the fucking world here.

[waagur]

fuuuck shiiiit, from album to album they had become more and more good in writing songs and performing live .

how is this possible ?????

DT is a phenomenon

[chicagobeardrummer]

dream theater is freaken awsome in person i love this band

[NortherSaviour]

0-9.00 = Best

[janidesmiranda]

petrucci's solo on this song almost make me cry.

[fuzzo73]

One of my most favorite pieces of music. Ever.

[IronHearse]

Wow....one of the only times LaBrie has actually hit the notes they layed down in the studio. :|

[peevishly]

one of the few bands enjoyable live

[XxboVodxX]

I think Dream Theater is the only band in the world that the people in the audience at their shows just stand and listen to the music instead of fighting in big ass circles =]

[cri1piano2guitar]

@XxboVodxX you're right...at their shows i want only listen =). AS IN A THEATER

[youfucktubenickname]

@XxboVodxX youre not quite right... ever been to a pocupine tree show? :) its awesome!

[EasterDavy]

@XxboVodxX probably because they only play seated venues

[valsimot95]

@XxboVodxX

That is great :)

I don't like to see group of people jumping and fighting

[MistaRowland]

@XxboVodxX: There's a balance to be struck at live shows. I hate mosh pits and crowd surfing but I think there's nothing wrong with showing some enthusiasm. It usually helps the band perform better. No offense to Dream Theater fans but I think they are the most boring audience a live band could ever have. I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin'...

[endrasthia]

@XxboVodxX HAHAHAH YOU HAVE REASONNNNNNNN AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH AHAHAHAHA YEAHHH IS A GREATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT BAND

[bisonlinebacker]

and they say beethoven and mozart and giacomo puccini were the best....they got nothin on these guys

[Rinnyrai]

@bisonlinebacker Music is a constantly flowing stream of emotion and sound. Dream Theater has got to be the best band in today's era. There is no doubt about that. However, Mozart, Beethoven, and Bach all contributed to the pool of musical ideas before these guys heard anything. (Accept John Myung. He is recreated every 100 years.) But all music is different faces of the same die... With some anomalies. Justin Beiber can suck my fat mate.

[christiannandres]

@Rinnyrai in my opinion tool is putting out some great new sound and life to todays music

[MiikeCS]

and they say petrucci's playing has no soul?

[5secLAUNCH]

why such a big drum kit lol, can't even hit all the stuff

[Firedblood]

@5secLAUNCH He can every part of his drum in a show, except the big gong behind him that he rarely uses (in Home, Trial Of Tears and some others)

[connormartini]

@5secLAUNCH there are two drum kits up there. he switches depending on what song it is

[bahamutod]

@5secLAUNCH its two separate drum sets put together. he switches between them

[LottoDeath]

Myung should've been more louder : p

[pryan37bb]

I miss Jordan Ruddess' hair :(

[axl409v]

@pryan37bb he probably misses it a lot more than you do lol

[Bohemia220]

I think this is the best band in the world. Seriously.

[vyrewatch12321]

@Bohemia220 Nah, pendulum is.

[Bohemia220]

@vyrewatch12321 Pendulum is also great :). Just different style.

[dusanstanimirovik]

@Bohemia220

[luferludertgarcia]

@Bohemia220 

[chiknzrule99]

they messed up the final unison pretty bad but otherwise very nice

[MarkRiches]

ouch! not used to this many bad moments from DT, they musta had jetlag or something

still awesome. fucking love this song

[VenzaMaiden]

love the guitar part that starts at 2:12 and goes until 4:11

[evan181]

@VenzaMaiden my favorite part of the song! very melodic

[MAH1500]

why is Petrucci's not playing wireless !! that cable seems like doing some bothering to his moving

[julenissegangsta]

@MAH1500 I suppose it has something to do with how fast the sound travels trough air and cable or something... But thats just my oppinion :)

[EngNeves]

Genius...even the mistakes are genial....at the begining Mike is out of time 0:23... Now I'm sure they're human :D

[bvds666]

@EngNeves

Gotta say that none of them are even a milisecond out of the time :)

And that, for sure, none of them are human... maybe, and just maybe, LaBree, but not the others =D

[Rafescow]

@EngNeves no he's not.. that's called improvisation

[HstfSengir]

Maybe LaBrie was drunk...

[uwishuwerme14]

jeeez Portnoy's set is HUUUGE!! Unless it's 2 next to each other.

[CentiZen]

Nope. It's just huge.

[jaredr0]

actually it is 2 kits - he said so on the tama website: its a double bass kit and a single bass kit side by side

[bigvalagain]

@uwishuwerme14 that's what she said.

[uwishuwerme14]

-.- nice... lol

[Chondoman]

Part two needs to be done with an orchestra,

that would BE SICK!

[uwishuwerme14]

it is... sorta....

[Holdurfire]

Thought I heard a note there, maybe he just played an open string. But I'm a drummer so I guess it's not my place to say lol. John Myung is still a badass. FTW.

[dolanforever1]

very emotional song

[gangsterthomas1000]

good quality

[herda5]

I love this song. It's so KANSAS-esc. Need more like this.

[TheDoctorGoat333]

*esque.

[SeparateCreation]

Dosn't he play on a open string?

[Rosme]

Yeah he was!

[Drakodan]

As bad as 8:33 is, 7:36 is far, FAR worse.

[jemakdemir]

Portnoy messed up lol:D:D

[Dethtallica73]

for once in his life lol

[CrzyIvnXLII]

To all those saying that Myung messed up: it's pretty hard to both play bass and prevent John Petrucci's 400 billion notes per second time warp playing abilities from totally obliterating you on the spot at the same time. Cut him some slack, won't ya?

[aleixenbmsn]

why r so fckn worried of the mistakes? they r only human like us, and not always gona be perfect, the magic is that not stop the song and keep playing...

[Noiajar]

wow, at 8:33 Myung got a huge mistake...

... my bad, it was just him improvising with a very short lick, then experimenting with silence. Genius!

[Irokutara]

8:38.

How does a man who does not speak say "Fuck... Fuck.... Fuck, I lost it... Hrrr...."

[J0000OOOO]

he doesn't talk much because he ain't the best talker XD.

"see there is this bass solo in metropolis part 1 where i do... a bass solo."

[VentrisFellstorm]

He let's his bass talk for him xD

-:D

[kdobroyk]

Check out what Myung does 8:33 - 8:34! LOL Even gods are imperfect!!!

[phronesys]

yes !! you are right he was troubled by a second hahaha

[Poliquetos]

OMG! *-*

[vbdude006]

what really pisses me off is that at the fats part of the first solo it shows Portnoy instead of JP

[Daria076]

VERY good quality vid! Thanks :)

[Thedude112123]

Please Wake me... There is much more I need to do

[O0slevin]

Some random guy behind Portnoy at 1:50 LOLOLOLOL!!!!!

[GRFTGP]

wow wtf happened there, you can barely hear Rudhess!!

[metalhead6695]

great song

[EnslaveTheEmos]

best live performers ever

[dreadbet]

suck ass claps.

[th3almighty300]

the first part is the best!!!

[Equipe3v]

@th3almighty300 The whole part is the best part!
