[indigoclean]

hey kid awesome job!! keep it up! very good

[skotous]

Wow

[abadonslipknot]

you have a good tecnique on guitar :)

soft and clean

[SomethinWild]

Which LTD model did you use for this video? And how did it feel/play/sound compared to the Ernie Ball?

[Greenwithevil]

Thanks a ton for your comments man. I'm using an h-1000 and it feels pretty nice. The only con that i can think of is the little spacing between the strings. The Ernie Ball feels much more comfortable and balanced (great string spacing, neck contour, everything) If you're thinking about getting one, don't hesitate!

[yooxa]

@Greenwithevil You can adjust the space between the string and the fretboard :D

[Greenwithevil]

@yooxa And bears do indeed crap in the woods :D

[nikyesify]

nice cover man............but u need to really work on ur vibrato technique............a key to judge a guitarist is the vibrato.............

[Greenwithevil]

yeah, thanks

actually, my vibratos are probably like a million times better now

this was more than 3 years ago (half of my guitar life)

[Maroli85]

Puto'

[10Plaguesofficial]

make sure you widen your vibrato, other wise, like my guitar teacher says, it sounds like a frightened lamb. great cover though

[systematicdesign]

wow, very nice work!!!!!!!!

Congratulations from México!!!!!!!

Visit my channel please!!!!!!!!!!

[FrutaPuertaPuerta]

Wow, you´re like John Petrucci 2!

Keep playing and make him be Greenwithevil 2! XD

5/5

[josepunk87]

So, I really liked this way because you are playing over an Erotomania background, but without John's performance, and everybody can realize about your virtous way of playing. Cheerss for you man, keep playing, and remember... Dream Theatre 4 Life!!!!!

[Greenwithevil]

wow dude!

thanks a lot, your comment sincerity is much appreciated!

DT for life!!!!

[josepunk87]

dude, that's the best fucking Erotomania cover that I have seen. I really liked it because it was kind of oroginal and unique. Every people here that play Erotomania they do it with the original song on the background, I mean with John's performance in the back, so it's not possible to note if they are playing or just covering their mistakes.

[m3diastar]

Well done man - get on the stage and start rocking out asap!

[elliottbradshaw]

I cant tel if you have a mustache or not

[Greenwithevil]

lol no mustache

[yamiimax]

I think hes playing really good he do it his way hes not just imitating John thats cool

[Masterblag]

Magnifique :D !

[PGornnY]

Great cover brow. \ ,, /. Very good.

by the way, nice guitar ;D

[Scorpio1234566]

some advice.. the fingering at the begining.. that isnt the best way to do it.. u haveto move off the E string.. u will get it.. look up Guitar Pro 5

[mono7159198]

chino hijueputa toca mas q yo jodase jajaja

[ilrefex91]

great!!!

[steve01evil]

nice playing dude.

[ariqisrockin231]

1:52

[dragon2712]

damn! Awesome cover :D

[Greenwithevil]

LOL it's NOTHING compared to your change of seasons cover

[ToolRushTheater]

This was great minus the legato slides you have in the riff at 0:18 etc. etc. IMO the staccato style sounds much better.

You should probably get a smaller guitar, it looks like you're straining your fingers.

[ferlottes]

faut vraiement se détester pour traiter les autres comme tu le fais.

[Korvtele]

Nice one! I think this one is the best or atleast one of the best covers here on YouTube mate, keep rockin'

/Robert

[MuBerny13]

Good thecnike but your guitarr....sucks

[solidus882]

good cover man it sound great!

[bpe14]

woww best cover exellent

[megadoomer543]

great job

[moemoemoemoemoe]

great man! did you play quintuplets from 5:06 on?? i never get the rhythm on them... they are crazy ;)

but, all in all, great job!

[Bautonman]

kick ass

Its cool how you did not use the original song as background.

Who worked the keyboards and drums anyway.

[Greenwithevil]

it's a guitarpro file

i muted out the midi guitars

[IslandBBoyz1]

Great Job man!!! You're a great guitarist! How long did it take you to learn that tune? I'm trying to figure out metropolis pt 1 right now and it's a pain in my ass!! :) keep up the great work dude!

[Greenwithevil]

thanks man,

umm it took about a month i believe

[norseindian]

you did really well. this cover is almost perfect!!!!!!!!

you had the right distortion and sound. did you use just amp, or pedals/board??

The N.I.

[Greenwithevil]

just a delay for the solos and a peavey triple xxx combo amp

[norseindian]

cool, thanks for the reply, and great job agian.!!!

The N.I.

[botman1]

That was very nice man. There were slip ups but I perfectly know how stresful it is to record oneself :) Not sure if you still play that song but if you do, the chromatic runs during the end of the song require a touch of artificial harmonics on each ending note. Not sure if you know what I mean. It's the spot after that fast solo when you repeat the same intro chromatic stuff.

Keep up the good work! :)

[Greenwithevil]

haha yeah

i left those out since a lot of people who don't know the song mistaken the harmonics for "mistakes"

[Greenwithevil]

yeah, my finger slipped

lol the paaaiiiiinnn!!!!

[Deviliumrei]

Very well played! Awesome song. How long you have played?

[mxm023]

amazing !! nice solo

keep it going

[neilwb23]

My only complaint is the bends in the chorus needed a bit more pzaz, but it was pretyt damn awesome aside form that. I've been playing for 3 years and I'm currently learning this. It's an absolute bastard of a song :(

[DrummerDude91]

amazing mate. well done :)

[xsilvertheghostx]

congrats ... not an easy song to play :)

[PInkey78]

Great, very good playin', that's a very difficult piece for guitar

[Greenwithevil]

woops, i deleted your comment instead of replying

the guitar is an esp ltd h-1000

[mxm023]

expensive one?

[Greenwithevil]

around $900 street price

[Wabber87]

OMG, cant understand how u could learn the whole song.. And u are only 18 when recorded :) I'm trying to learn it, but it seems i cant and never will :'( best DT song ever! GJ keep it going :D

[tuliespirito]

Beautifull Ertomania, incredible

[zmantsunami]

HOLY #@$@@%^$# I KNOW THAT GUY

[Mikkjal]

wow, how long did that take you, man? :D

[maneeacc]

...thats pretty sick... great work...

[SV09]

nafis is the man!

[beemecks]

yes he is

[Greenwithevil]

most bodacious and mathematically enticing

[Demogoron]

absolutely perfect :D

[selos69]

sounded good mate, as did the rig!

[Greenwithevil]

haha thanks a lot man, took me a while to find a good tone

[fisheye77]

[rjt3449]

yeah, me too, post another video, still cant shred though, lol

[rjt3449]

i remember this, did u get any better?

[Greenwithevil]

quite a lot actually

[javier13528]

nice men, check out my version of overture

cya

[Oblivion104]

Very nice mate, like it alot!

[petrucci24]

in conclusion- good playing and keep focus on this what you re doing!

[petrucci24]

It s very simple to learn it but it s very very helpful in developing technique.

[petrucci24]

really good. One thing- when you re playing some picking parts try to pick "up and down" method.I saw that there on the video are moments when you re playing patnets like "down down down" try to pick "down up down".

[bamytheman]

good job! but your pinky's annoying me..lol

[Greenwithevil]

lol yeah, it has a mind of its own

[Aliantro]

gooood, good job!

if yuo want here you can find my erotomania's version.

i've played it some years ago with my band!

hi!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v­=ujTtZPrK0Lg

[Greenwithevil]

im 18

[zikomyung]

your a good on guitar i like your games .how old are you

[mercury904]

NIce accompaniment,, nice distortion that was close to petrucci's gain,clean solos,very good work,well maybe you'll gonna play that in years Im sure of that heheheh

[pradeepta]

great. really awesome. I d like to hold guitar once again which i vent touched for months

[aaronbatcheldor]

Nice. That was a lot better than most of the covers on here

[godofwar15]

YOUR GOOD MY FRIEND IS TRING TO PLAY IT AND I AM A FAN OF Erotomania A BIG ONE

[bungay23]

That was awesome man, Rock on buddy!!!!!!!!1

[coffeeintheface]

you have the stiffest pinky I have ever seen, hahaha. Awesome job though. The final shred part is hard as shit to pull off cleanly.

[metropolis3043]

nicee playingggg. but i would ask you to check out the guitarist here:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=nfW­ILFl5udM&search=erotomania%20d­ream%20theater

to perfect yourself. he's prolly the most awesome player of erotomania, next to petrucci. guitar teacher from france.

[ScifiSaints]

Sounds really good. Nice job.

[spareflair]

sounds great, I'll have to get the guitarpro tab for this even though I could never play that well. You should have kept the pinches.

[Greenwithevil]

As for the precision, im a HUGE follower of john petrucci. Although i know he IS NOT the best guitarist, he is my favorite. John petrucci is one of the most musically technical and precise guitarists i have seen so far and i just love his style of playing.

[Greenwithevil]

Yeah, i usually loosen up more when im on stage. I tried to make this vid as "classical" as I could.

[Fiorina161]

Simple perfect! Beautiful and awesome! Great job!

Congratulations from other guitar-hero ;-)

[coffeeintheface]

same to you dude, awesome work

[Greenwithevil]

Also, i was using guitarpro for this. I took out the guitars out of the midi so yeah it's all me (from the screw ups to the solos)

[Greenwithevil]

Oh yeah and i didnt add the pinches at the end because people(who werent guitarists) thought that i was messing up.
