John petrucci ...did u forget how to play universal mind?!

[Marzet92]

Mr.Petrucci, you don't fool us that easy. Stop pretend to be human.

[antonio610]

I think it's more likely that the guitar forgot what notes it should produce than Petrucci having played them wrong.

[SS4LZeppo]

Thats exactly why i love petrucci. Half man, half God

[Morstonaqu]

Petrucci is still epic.

[MlKEPORNTOY]

John has Alzheimer's.

[talkingbullet]

damn, he still thinks he can fools us to think that he was human. silly petruci....

[alesanomenanes]

i thing that as a god, sometimes have to be closer to the humans to now them well, he tried to pretent to be a human

[ericjurado6]

00:24 jordan n mike are like WTF?

[OixordNL]

Haha epic

[francesco149]

He actually looked at the wrong note until the song went back in time and then proceeded to play the right solo.

[NoPriorRecords]

That was priceless, They all had the same look on their faces...." What the..?"

[cvc1290]

come on people.. cant you see what happened?? he was responding to some poor childs prays. Dont forget that he is Jesus!!!

[PermaFryedable]

Almost every great guitarist has had egg on the face, and that drives them to be better.

[TUMPPP]

@Simonemoni i was trying to vote up...i was laughing so hard that i missed...sorry

[LordKruser13]

Out of Power Star!

[albundie3]

Holy shit tony levin! You lucky bastard...

[dreadbet]

they tooked a lot of acid

and acid fuck your memory

:)

cheers.

[MrDuckFuk]

Watch the end. THAT'S JP.

[davechicolombia]

the top comment is even better than the vid itself lol

[SuperLAFWorld]

@davechicolombia Agreed, MorbidGuardian made one of Youtube's best comments.

[vefge]

i laughed my fucking brains out

[yoeasypunk]

I laugh at the end.

[MaximumPayne12]

ehh seriously where is the mistake?

[marko92pn]

Tony Levin?

[510shredder]

it's called being human....

[tarathetornado]

OMG TONYYYYYYY

[Petchx]

hahaha!!! Nioce one John!

[SuperDantedmc]

i think its fun to look at all the awesome excuses people give :)

[stexnookie]

epic fail :p

[ShredableGuitar]

0:24

He shouldn't have deactivated the killzone switch. 

[BMTH0780]

I love him all the same, awesome player

[TheSonsofHorusx]

it still sounded cool

[gianlucator]

0:24 Tony Levin: Hey, wtf? 

[MoogesKeyCollection]

well mike portnoy seems to think it's funny

[theOngman]

The look on Tony Levin's face is PRICELESS.

[spin467]

John Petrucci doesn't forget songs, he unwrites them.

[guitaristanddrummful]

Ah i see, he was finding it so easy that he kept falling asleep, he then realised that playing universal mind whilst sleeping would create a vortex of musical energy and completely destroy the audience. Luckily Tony Levin stopped playing and Mike Portnoy held back a little to reduce the amount of musical energy and prevent the vortex from reaching self-sustainability, Petrucci was then forced to make a 'mistake' to completely destroy the remains of the vortex.

[rudicci]

He didn't forgot the song... he just re-wroted on the fly :P

[Spek47]

Tony Levin was just going with it and then at 0:24 he was like, "Wait ,what the hell am I playing to?"

[kokoriko999]

0:24 he is like WTF???!!



[TheeOutlaw]

Nice try Petrucci, you're not fooling anyone pretending to be human.

[brainnumbed]

@TheeOutlaw Awesome haha...

[jdudley118]

In the words of Joe Walsh, "Just because you wrote it, doesn't mean you know it!"

[AlterBridgeFan90]

Must be extremely difficult to pretend forgetting a song.

[dreamtheat3r]

awesome... nice comeback! seriously

[Giggstow]

wtf is rudess playing?

[pablriqu]

@Giggstow the chapman stick... and it's noy ruddes, it's tony levin...

[MorbidGuardian]

What happened is that John began overloading himself with music power, and in order to save everyone's life he had to counteract the awesome factor with a slight essence of plain old good factor. The ensuing combination of the two factors created a paradox since, even though John can access plain old good, he is in fact incapable of playing plain old good, and as such it caused a rift in the music-time continuum, perceived as, in our case, a "mistake".

[CDP110]

@MorbidGuardian Of course, the only logical explanation.

[idel9x]

@MorbidGuardian just write "a mistake" and i'll understand lol

[sk8276]

@MorbidGuardian What the Fuck??

[alesanomenanes]

@MorbidGuardian IoI 

[YuxKid]

0:24 "YOULL KILL US ALL!"

[iseeu1980]

"Wait, wait... remember John... if you play too fast we'll all travel back in time and we'll take these people with us. Remember what we agreed upon backstage."

[ShredableGuitar]

0:25

"WTF mode activated."

[TerrorAndmore]

I guess Portnoy yelled out something, he was so close to bear-mode

[CabinaTelefonica]

ペトルッチ先生がここまでハッキリとミスるとは・・・。

それだけ難易度の高い曲ってことだなｗ

[RaidonSama]

I love the way Tony Levin stops playing at :22 and perks his head up!

[Thunderbirdago]

これはレア…

[Annulable]

Lol. Awkward.

[StevieVaibanez]

0:22. Tony: 'Dear god, please spare us. Not World Domination Mode- please! I have a family!'

[dpgiaca97]

they played that off really really well though

[HarvestHollow]

What was Jordan playing?

[Arkatox]

@HarvestHollow It's not Rudess. This is Liquid Tension Trio, not Dream Theater. Yes, Portnoy and Petrucci were also part of Liquid Tension. Rudess was too for a while (that's how he became a part of Dream Theater). Look up 'Liquid Tension Experiment' on Wikipedia.

[thefoosa72]

@Arkatox well rudess was playing so it was Rudess

[Arkatox]

@thefoosa72 Actually, look around the other comments. It's not Rudess. The only similarity between Rudess and Levin is that they're both bald. Yeah, that's a pretty big similarity, but still. He doesn't even look like Rudess, and he's playing bass. Who do you think it is?

[thefoosa72]

@Arkatox Oh I didn't know he was talking about Tony Levin. Nevermind. And he's playing Chapman stick.

[666guitarfreak]

@Arkatox rudess wasnt even bald back then, was he?

[Arkatox]

@666guitarfreak Actually, no I don't think so. Well, it depends on when this was. Yeah, this was probably back when Rudess had really long hair like he did in Scenes from New York. But really, he looked horrid like that!

[DTmajesty85]

@666guitarfreak no he had crazy hair!

[Pequenno54]

JP ftw :)

[Shawnium101]

MIke Portnoy did a back up using his stick throwing. lol...

[VanishingDigital]

0:26 tony levins face is hilarious, he's just like wtf?

[mangafreak923]

I really wanted to see the look on Jordan's face, maybe not as priceless as Tony's reaction to this but still lol.

[NortherSaviour]

Mr Petrucci did not screw up. We mere mortals just can not comprehend how awesome he was playing.

[rurzan]

I'd love to be able to cover my mistakes as well as Petrucci did.

[4lifeguitar]

John's just like "Shit. What were we playin again?"

[19abaddon88]

EPIC REACTION on Tony... XD

[HDarkmantis]

This was a joke...everybody knows JP cant be mistake..

[Wonderize]

I think Mike and Tony were off there ;p

[dirtydonki]

iRobot

[bluestripedtiger]

Looks so funny the way Mike throws the stick, too :D

[XSK8xD]

0:23 "what the fuck?!"

[tnad5212]

Tony just stops and is like "dude what the fuck"

[DTorDeath]

I think JP's funniest story was when he mentioned he once had a nightmare that he was playing so fast it came out as one note XD

[arturmet]

Petrucci we all know you'r not human so stop doing this

[metalheadblues]

string skipping madness

[dreadbet]

HAHAHAHA

funny



[Naruto1151]

John purposely messes up to fool us into thinking he is a normal person. But we are on to him.

[joemiracle220]

im so glad this video exist

[Jagstaldincola]

xD both are looking at john: "WHAT ARE U DOING!?"

[MrSRV94]

hahaha it's the same concert when his guitar was broken! :D

[AlfredoBoGu]

@MrSRV94 What a shitty day that must've been for him :)

[donottakethisname]

I like how once he realises he's screwed up he just jumps a couple of bars to the last note.

[tankeportnoy]

we know that youre not human petrucci dont even try!

[thejigsawmurdersyou]

0.30 "Oh shit, theyre on to me! Time to erase their minds with some shredding."

[GLP68]

haha. petrucci, when in doubt or if i fuck up .... just start shreading. lol

[hbarrett08]

Everyone, even Liquid Tension / DT have gotta have these small fails every now and then, or they'll go insane :P

[AdrianPE93]

xD! u shouldve put a text box sayin "WTF?" comin from their heads at the moment they looked petrucci

[toontownfoo]

DT seems to have a collection of live fails..is that a bad thing?comon keep it together dt...

[metalmetal9]

a little problem over here lol

[Gtrplyr1]

lol they should of had his back and kept going!!!! Funny though

[MattHellwing]

0:27 when both raise their head meaning "what the f*ck is he doing!", and then petrucci convinced all's right! ("why did you stop playing guys?")

priceless

[redphoenix81]

Wow ok, now i see all in my life....XD

[ralphM1114]

f*ck thats HILARIOUS HAHAHAHA

[mrzelda8]

HAHAHAHHAHAAHHAAHHAHA what just happened he jsut started playing like rewhfncwogfosgf and then hit the same note for about 2 bars hahahha fail??

[hatooli]

tony's stare is epic

[pekisi]

i dont know why is that when

petrucci miss the song they dont keep playing?

i mean, they dont have some kind of "plan" or "backap"

for "if anything fails"?

Anyway... love this guys... tony levin came to argentina

few month ago with his "stickmen" trio, was really cool

[OttoJAJUKKA]

Levin goes totally "wtf??!"

[XSymphony]

@OttoJAJUKKA yea

[WoWZhen]

You Rock! 9999999999999999999 / 1000000000000000000 notes hit.

[Nesb1]

Universal Mind forgot how to play under John Petrucci.

[Bartekdex]

He didnt forget! They all did in the same time! How is it possible that God can forget something O_O?

[tiagorozeiraguitar]

@Bartekdex cuz he's a human

[LovacNaBudale]

desi se cak i njima

[sexypadri]

LOL at 0:24 (Levin rage face)

[eennymo]

LOL! this is funny! don't know HOW they can remember it all...

[Shevafjv]

the bold man..is tony levin.... and this is lte and not dream theater....

[BipolarMoon]

Did Myung use a chapman's stick on the Budokan dvd show, I should watch it.

[Lewlable]

everyones like WTF man at 0:24

[ASUSG50kid]

i love the chapman's stick, so much time can be wasted playing so many different tunes on it.

[Revertemperor]

hahahaha holy shit that was funny XD

[donottakethisname]

I like how at 0:30 he just goes "oops" and blitzes through all the other notes to get to the end :P

[mojoefly]

lets consider jetlag, fatigue and just plain exhaustion. of course that directly affects memory and psycho motor skills.

[Zadonitz]

0:29 looks like the dramatic chipmunk xD!

[pekisi]

I think that petrucci was about to enter into world-domination-killing-zone and so tony and james sayed... WTF? u cant handle that! and what's more u'll kill all the people!!! Is like Goku Going to Kayoken in his earlys... and in that critical moment petrucci improvised some stuff, about 2 billon bpmillisecond i guess

[enfermomayor]

Maybe he was confused, because before this song the gear of john failed.

Tony said: WTF??? 0:24

[DonLduk]

actually the problem was the amp. You can hear the guitar come up pretty loud, from practically no sound.

[bassaholicpong]

I think he show us his "miracle"

[dvsdez]

*Petrucci* had mercy on the crowd by stopping the song. too much awesomess for mere mortals to survive

[stalingrenhatten]

tony and mike were afraid he was gonna go 1.2 billion notes per second .

[ArrrPirate666]

Hahahahaha. Win.

[jikarpert]

@stalingrenhatten tony ??!

[stalingrenhatten]

@jikarpert the bass player.

[dalejrfan7390]

I love how Petrucci is totally improving the entire thing and Tony Levin and Mike Portnoy are like "Seriously, wtf are you doing dude?" And Petrucci just acts like nothing is wrong.

[kgkologlu]

hahahaa poor petrucci

[Woodpig91]

Cool bass player btw

[mikelilloillo]

even he could made a mistake

[shakalamon]

Petrucci's attempts to convince us he's human aren't fooling anyone! :P

[EnragedSephiroth]

Petrucci's broken, someone should bug that up, he nearly suffered a hard crash windows-style.

[SpartanLaserCanon]

@shakalamon We already know which guitarist isn't human. Buckethead. xD

[shadowmalik009]

@SpartanLaserCanon you know who's under the bucket...... do i need to say it? (JP just in case you didnt know)

[blarghas]

@shadowmalik009 Lul, its Brian Carroll =\

[diaphanoux]

this concert was an evidence that sometimes JP does not prwactice at all!!!, makes me mad even if im not there, when they come for PR 4 the first time, he messed up too at certain points!!!, damn it... DT 4 life though!!! hope another LTE albums comes out!!

[psicodrumelambrmetal]

hahaha they just loock petrucci and stop playing hahahaha

[Fasims86]

Lol this song has a curse or something like that xD At the beginning the guitar was "broken" so they started without the guitar, after that they restarted the song and at the end of the song John forgets how to play that part of universal mind XD

DT and LTE The best Group ever, i love you john <3

[domonly]

omg check at portnoy throwing his sticks right when levins looks petrucci :P

[zevvay]

love how whenever dream theater messes up unless you know the song you wouldnt be able to tellXD

[caralhotephoda]

this was Liquid Tension, not Theater :p

[zevvay]

oops wrong vid i had 2 up at once and the other was a DT mistake:p

[arthurkitchen]

Even the best make mistakes

[amjan]

Hahaha, they're both like "WTF?"

[stringer630]

Levin at 0:25 "WTF noob". lol they are all amazing players but they gotta fuck up sometimes

[Tonatiuth]

Haha, hasta eso, me gusto como les quedo la cancion con todo y la mini improvisacion de Petrucci.

[sanber06]

jajaja hay q risa la cara del bajista, los demas quedaron quietos viedo como petrucci,la cagaba solo...jajajaja.

pero bno a veces pasa...

[skalkmusix]

i like levin's look

[shredmunga]

haha....... their only human, i think we forget that sometimes

[JoHnStUmP]

hahaha!

[gsalesvz]

hauahuahauahuahauahauahuahauah­uhau, rimuito com a cara do baixista quando o Petrucci erra xD

[silverstaralchemist]

lmfao at the look on the bassist's face at 0:22

xD

priceless!

[VH5150VH]

This was 1999, probably...

[Apemopo]

When was this? Hes using Ibanez?

[HyperFreak1102]

John Petrucci used to be sponsored by Ibanez.

[Apemopo]

yea I know that.

[HybridSoldier94]

1995 +/- 2years i think

[6StringKng]

no this would have been after the albums were released so couldn't be 1995 +/- 2 years
