[deathmetalstrength]

[matiasbanfield23]

EPIC FUNNY FAIL xD

[TheHurtDoctor]

The drum tech is so fired

[assbagandro]

oh shit ice bells are killer no joke

[krisgraves69]

Lol

[danb6551]

its all shits and giggles until someone giggles and shits

[quaddrummer70]

All fun and games until a flying ice bell takes your knee caps out. Watch out for a pedals hit you in the shins or sandwiching your finger in between the stick and edge of the cymbal. UGggggh!!!!

[DrummingNonStop]

Why aren't you uploading videos anymore?

[stationmaster12]

Tama...the strongest name in drums?...hum

[Munkiiedude]

@stationmaster12 you're referring to the hardware i supposed...

[mdilo13167]

Thats what you get for stacking 3 cymbals

[rollercoastergod]

@mdilo13167 It's a bell on top of a mac stack actually, so its 2 cymbals..

[JackMehoff845]

better an icebell to the knee then an arrow....like what happened to me :(

[Munkiiedude]

@JackMehoff845 you reminded me of a song from IGN... or Gamespot... one of the rap song...

[ItaLyZPlaYa1]

Wish he was my drummer.

[entredudasyancias]

pawned in the nuts!! xD

[69aadicto]

Press 3 for dancing portnoy

[mnglfrnglfck]

I used to be a drummer like you, then I took an icebell in the knee...

[SeamlessDivide]

@mnglfrnglfck Probably the best comment i've ever seen on youtube. Well... at least Skyrim-related.

[parafuso12]

@mnglfrnglfck hahhahaahahaahhhahahhahahahah nerd

[vieri031]

New band provides Mike the best gear he ever had ...

[OneTakeJesus]

@vieri031 Just because he joins a band does not mean he gets different equipment.

[SparklyMewy204]

wheres a wing nut when he needs one

[Universound57]

its even funnier it fell because the noises it made when it fell were on beat

[odrosxxx]

ahahhahahhahahaha funny but "I LIKE THIS"

[tpphanuwat]

oh yeah!!! i like it hahaha

[xXxFSTYLExXx]

Mr. Portnoy. Can I have your Icebell? :D

[Kj6H]

Is he using Samson Qtom mics?

[daltonplaysthesax]

an album with Mike Portnoy, Russell Allen, and Mike Orlando?!?!?! I MUST HAVE IT NOW!!!!!!! is it out yet? and if not when will it be out and what is it called? im a huge fan and also a drummer.

[titaniumwombat]

@daltonplaysthesax The band is Adrenaline Mob. Give'm a listen!

[daltonplaysthesax]

@titaniumwombat thanks I will

[musadrumz]

play him off keyboard cat!

[JustAsWeAreDrummer]

He has one of the biggest drum sets I have ever seen (this isn't his full set up I know.) but why wouldn't he get 1 more cymbal stand to put the bell on?? Hahaha.

[micahguitar14]

is this mike's house? why is there a jem hanging in the wall

[THENEWA7X]

Oh My God!

[thegreatbasher]

I no I shouldn't but HAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!

[kietey14]

Has this album been released?

[ThatCheapDrummer]

This was set up. The wing nut on that cymbal was either too big or he didn't even screw it on. That's what it looks like.

[norcoriders99]

its funny couse he uses a radia cup chime not an ice bell trolololol

[utube4covers]

I like the bit where the cymbal falls. :D

[WhenxChristxReturnsx]

The bell fought back!

[DrumsSaint]

LOL hahahahha

[ThatCheapDrummer]

Hello, just lettin ya know you have a ten year old fan! Kids my age don't understand music -.-

[hotbytes2000]

luckily it did not end up on top of your head lol

[57aurelien]

the music is belive me - aldrenadine mod? right?

[TheAnastasiadis]

fail



[drahcirvideo1]

LOL he just started cracking up right after it happens hahaah

[IambossBe]

กำ กลองตกใส่ตีน : ) 

[shreader327]

mike... you and john petruccu are my musical heros!!! now stoo me if im wrong but that kinda looked like a prank... the look on mikes face! lmao! priceless!!!

[MUSKAO95]

what kind of bell is that? a radia?

[mutzeh]

@MUSKAO95 7" Sabian Radia Bell.

[ThexteraDrummer]

@mutzeh It's a freaking Sabian Icebell like the title says!

[drumdreamer92]

@ThexteraDrummer Actually the other dude's right, its not the Ice bell, that thing is 12", the one in the video is a 7 or 8" Radia. The stack is 10"

[YTNimron]

this happen to me but the bell did not hit my fucking knee cap it came and hit me in the fucking face!!

[iAmPesukone]

Is that an APC hoodie in the back at the end?

[TehSoulZero]

Icebell Win :D Mike FTW!

[cpuser37]

@Rattlehead0000

oh wow i actually never noticed that before until you pointed it out lol

[larz28]

is your knee cap insured ?

[Eddie147741]

Adrenaline Mob- Believe Me ;)

[mg200442000]

Hasn't Portnoy watched the Vater Percussion video by Mangini from Dream Theater? Oh sorry MP...my bad !

[grayson1090]

well that's what happens when you buy sabian

[zombiedrumma]

@grayson1090 Damn straight! Zildjian all the way!

[grayson1090]

@zombiedrumma Well i do enjoy Zildjian and have used their products for years but i just started trying out meinl and im sorry to say but the only thing i like about zildjian more than meinl anymore is that zildjian is made in america 

[grayson1090]

@zombiedrumma oh and by saying zildjian all the way you could also be supporting sabian because sabian was founded in 1977 when Armand Zildjian's younger brother Robert sued his older brother brother Armand who by tradition would become president of zildjian because he was the oldest son for control of Zildjian but only won the canadian factories so from there he created sabian to compete with his own family... like a dick

[zombiedrumma]

@grayson1090 I could be supporting Sabian, but I'm not. How could I support Sabian if I support Zildjian? They're two completely different cymbal companies. Just because Sabian was created by a Zildjian family member, doesn't mean that they make the same cymbals as ZIldjian. The way Sabian makes their cymbals is similar to Ziljian's way, but other than that, they are very different in many ways.

[cpuser37]

I FIGURED OUT WHAT SONG MP IS PLAYIG HERE, it's "Believe Me" from the new Adrenaline Mob album.

[Uhh3000]

@cpuser37 Perhaps you figured this out because he says in the beginning what it is...?

[cpuser37]

@Uhh3000

*sigh*

It seems that i must repeat myself yet again. I didn't realize that the said what song it was until someone else pointed that out. now I heard him say it because I weant back and cranked up the volume on my speakers. ok?

[rodrigomacias]

Mike fail XD

[Fabian7024]

Lmfao

[KornSOAD]

Believe Me

[boxfreak007]

Hah! Thats pretty funny, had that happen once :P

[RazrHack]

Ahh, Mike tries to pretend he's a mere mortal.

[djcocho]

0:27 loop button XD

[VincioDifra]

i love you mike

[JCordoba1001]

iron/ speed cobra are good though

[JCordoba1001]

tama hardware sucks, pearl all day!

[ShittyMcPoopyBalls]

@JCordoba1001 you are a cunt.

[helpmeimconfused]

How do you get these videos?

[gibya111]

@helpmeimconfused it's MP's channel :P

[helpmeimconfused]

@gibya111 him for real? wow

[jwildman95bamf]

I once heard of a splash cymbal breaking and a chunk of it flying into a dudes eye and permanently blinding him.

[Synfuckyndrums]

joajaojaoajoaao a todos nos a pasado alguna vez Mike, no te preocupes igual sos mi idolo :)

[drescaosad]

HAHAHA MUY CHARRO HEHE PA Q VEAN TAMBIEN LE PASA ALOS GRANDES JEJEJE



[CraigBurden]

hahahahaha AWESOME! Sorry man!

[logansdrums]

at 0:52 theres a guy in the back with ''A Prefect Cirle'' shirt !!sweat!!

[r1bzh29]

LOL

[Jabarichonicles]

thats what happenes when u have THREE cymbals stacked

[Biggermanalways]

@Jabarichonicles It is technically only 2. The ones on the bottom are a set of Max Stax's, and he's been putting his bell on top of his mid stax for over a decade now.

[Jabarichonicles]

@Biggermanalways

still, that counts as three...a stack is two cymbals...and a bell

[siro9735]

hahahahaahahahaha so funny

[rodnessgates]

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHHA

[guidonietmann]

12 rodies lost their jobs. lol

[orangatine]

ACTUALLY DT never even spoke to him in person about letting him back in. theyre lawyers wouldn't even let him in to talk to DT.

[OfivetwoekVeeDee]

@orangatine sore cheated girlfriends need lawyers....It might be called...the Petrucci defense

[OfivetwoekVeeDee]

@orangatine sore cheated girlfriends need lawyers....It might be called...the Petrucci defense,,,and Itll be thaught at Berklees brand new Laws school

[juan0199ar]

HAPPENS TO ONE OF THE BEST DRUMMERS IN THE WORLD YOU CAN HAPPEN TO YOU JAJAJAJAJA

[behnampmdg3]

hahahaahhaahahahahaahhaahahaha­haahhaahahahahaahhaahahahahaah­haahahahahaahhaahahahahaahhaah­ahahahaahhaahahahahaahhaahahah­ahaahhaahahahahaahhaaha

[SuperXpress2]

hahahaha lol

[IeeroyJenkins]

Okay... What type of cymbal is it that the bell fell off of (the cymbal under the bell)? I've been trying to figure this out for months what that thing is called.

[TheGreyMan93]

@IeeroyJenkins It's called a cymbal stack. To make one you usually put a crash/splash on the bottom and a china on top.

[tnad5212]

lol'd

[xen0genesis]

its as though mike mangini's vater slick nut video was to mock this video of portnoy

[OfivetwoekVeeDee]

@xen0genesis Actually theres a funny story...cause mike in his Rush tribute....he used on the spash/cowbell tree a Vater Slick Nut ...and in the solo from YYZ....He plays the floor tom with the cowbells and the splash....and then it falls down...This was before he got endorsed by the other slicknuts (silver ones , nameless) ...but that was a his Vater one...so Mike Portnoy lost his allen wrench and he didnt put it INTO THE HOOOOOOOOOOOOOLE :)

[ilovethewar1945]

higienic paper : $1 , soda : $1,50 ... product without bar code : priceless :)/(:

[StrangeNipples]

I'm looking forward to this album so much. Russel Alan and Mike will do great together, not to mention Mike Orlando, who is an amazing guitarist

[FreemanBoscha]

you need some vader slick nuts, the one's mike mangini uses on his new kit.

[MapexRG]

@FreemanBoscha

lol

[NinoAndJakobTV]

hahaha :DD youre best drummer ever for me :D but it was still a fail :D

[MRA7XDRUMMeRDudE93]

Epic fail mike.  Even i know you should check cymbals before you play, so shit like that dont happen

[OfivetwoekVeeDee]

With all due respect please dont blow it again dont leave neil nor transatlantic...youre awesome....but MAAAAN how could you??????

[Jeesus353]

What if this shit happens when playing live? lmao!

[JackMehoff845]

i bet mikeys drum tech set it up like that purposely as a prank knowing that as soon as mike hit it it would go fucking flying

[DaFuckinSchwartz]

Lololol love you portnoy

[bulullu]

..without warning out of nowhere,like a bullet from a knight flyes the icebell down my knees ... ;-)

[OfivetwoekVeeDee]

@bulullu  this cheers me up after the "i leave DT" dissapointment....

[aNGel92a7x]

jaaajajaaaaa ... Mike is the beast drummer!!

[EvilSkeltos]

Nice one man! lol So anyone know what this album all about? Russel from Symphony X or somthin right? I think it would be awsome if you make a straight up Deth Metal band. That would be different hey

[masterloli666]

=))

[Avenjim]

Sounds like a thrilling fantasy story.

[Flaitesexy]

mike did you know? mike mangini is the new drummer of DT , JUST SAYING....

[m1X4S]

@Flaitesexy he knows it before you ever had the idea to watch the documentary fag

[Flaitesexy]

@m1X4S wow u mad dont u?? haaha u faggot nigga

[ToxicBlitz]

To anyone who has a family history of bad knees: Don't take up drumming. Every other drumming injury I sustain is to my knees.

[bondjamesbond12]

DAYUM

[thiagocssantos1]

Feliz Aniversário Mike

Happy Birthday Mike

[BruceFuchsNeves]

Feliz aniversário cara!

[moosedrummer1]

Happy Birthday Mike!

[thamyras]

Happy Birthday! :)

[MrPortnoy90]

Mike is simply the best!!!

[MitchellBeazley]

rate on my fuckin knee cap XD

[xxbss4lifexx]

Should leave the sound of it falling off in the backround of the recording

[minime220220]

does anyone know the size of his ice bell? I wanna get it soooooo bad

[rovyster135]

are you kidding me? hahahaha7x

[tommy78247]

@RediForKing and @passion4drums what really happened is mike left while touring with a7x but he decided to take a break when he was done touring, yes it hit dt alittle hard but im sure they will let him back at any time, and concerning the video i say Flying cymbal= $50, knee pads= $30, mike kicking the roadies ass that set that up= priceless

[passion4drums]

@tommy78247 yeah i know that, i'm just saying, he never asked to rejoin... he left on his part for a BREAK. not like "a couple months and then i'll ask then to join again!!" sorta thing.

[OfivetwoekVeeDee]

@tommy78247 emmmm acording to news...they will keep mangini......their lawyer rebuffed him.....cant believe im talking about the man i admired the most thru my teenage

[Shaunyrawrs]

@tommy78247 to your comment about DT letting Mike back... not a chance now. He tried talking them round after he left A7X but DT was not having it and told him to basically go play in traffic. he fucked them around plain and simple in DT's eyes. but if you saw the Spirit audition series recently, they make it out as if hes like, dead or something. PORTNOY4LIFE! WOO!

[AustinTreadwayA7X]

@tommy78247 MP won't be returning to DT. John Petrucci stated in a recent interview that Mike Mangini is permanent and will be in DT until the end of DT's career. (By the way, I do agree with you on "Mike kicking the roadies a** that set that up=priceless. Lol.)

[chuckandkelley]

Drum tech.....YOU'RE FIRED!!!

[djrmusicdude]

Exactly what I think.

[KornSOAD]

At around 00:15 I was waiting for "My hands STILL have a metallic smell to them" xD

[Eddie147741]

@KornSOAD :D after all this years

[seems2bdarkness]

way to break shit, Mike...;)

[OfficialADmusic]

that's so damn funny gonna try that to :P

[Gioarts1]

Man that's to fucking funny....

One time my stick broke, the broken piece hit my brother right in the back of the head, it almost stabbed him too, hehehe.

Should have seen how mad he got at me!!! Hehehe Ah the good old days...
