[OlhuscOmuns]

CARALEO!.. SIMPLESMENTE A MELHOR COISA Q ELES JA FIZERAM, ATUALMENTE, OS MELHORES DO PROGRESSIVO E O CARALHO A CUATRO, MAGNIFICOS!!! VENHAM PRO BRASIL!

[DEMON666DRUMMER]

dont get me wrong, cos i LOVE portnoy and i DONT think he should've left, but i dont know if he would've been able to pull of this album? it suite's mangini more than it does portnoy

[bunnyannihilator89]

the reason why DT can reach a broad audience is because of James, James is THE VOICE of DT

[yoyohomieyoitsjman]

not to mention how amazing beautiful thy e solo for this song, it is probablone of my favorite dream theater solos

[yoyohomieyoitsjman]

The guitar's finish....oh my its so beautiful!

[OlhuscOmuns]

grammy is bull shit..!!!....man, i think DT dont need this award, DT is more than this shit!....BEST BAND EVER!!!!

[bkarame]

@OlhuscOmuns Did u realize that same artist won 4 and 5 times grammys last night? I mean, this is publicity, not music quality... Like u said, DT dont need this Crap-mmy

[masteropuppetz66]

and i must say the renovated Balboa Theater in Downtown SD is freaking awesome... hope DT comes back this year!

[masteropuppetz66]

yah i was looking for a good quality version of this show... i was in the front row center on the balcony (loge) section. best DT show ive ever been too! 

[italiandreamer76]

This song alone is worth the ticket price

[dinospd]

Dude... I don't know if he's overall better than Portnoy or not, but one thing is absolutelly true: Mangini is fucking awesome!

[edermr44]

@dinospd considering he learned a few setlists of his old songs in like half a year, i think it's safe to say he's better than portnoy.

[dinospd]

@edermr44 Again, I don't want to compare them... Only by knowing that DT still has an awesome drummer is more than enought for me.

10:46 - seeEerching oan (i hope that james recovers FULLY)

[BOOLsheet]

@darkerrr how often are you guys going to use that excuse to try to disguise the simple truth that he's just not a very good vocalist?

[darkerrr]

@BOOLsheet You misunderstood me :(. I love him so much! I got all his albums (solo albums) other than DT and I'll quote myself: "I hope that James recovers fully". That was an honest wish that came from my heart. I'm not one of those guys! :(

[bunnyannihilator89]

@BOOLsheet HAVE YOU HEARD ALL THE DT ALBUMS YET?

I DON'T THINK SO. WHEN YOU HEAR ALL OF IT PLUS JAMES'S SOLO ALBUMS COME TO ME AND TELL ME WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS GUY.

[BOOLsheet]

@bunnyannihilator89 i know those albums like the back of my hand. he cant sing anymore. he could sing back in 92. hes done. its over. they need a new vocalist. period.

[bunnyannihilator89]

@BOOLsheet this guy sings very well, i remember since Metropolis pt2 people saying they hate his voice, and nowadays they say he can't sing. The truth is these people are heavy metal fans, and most of them like the hard singing style, but James doesn't have that, his voice has always been soft and kind so he sings normal, the popular/mainstream style of singing the only diference is he puts it into heavy metal and thus DT songs can always reach more people than most heavy metal bands.

03:49  mike mangini

[wolfman1234]

Haha is it just me or do anyone els hear the cowbell at: 01:53! lol

[pogus73]

@wolfman1234 lol yeah. My guess would be that he was playing the 18" bass drum and he accidentally hit the electric trigger pad's slave pedal.

[TheFahed1]

thumbs up if petrucci forum brought you here :)

[SeanAsheOfficial]

Mangini just doesn't have a good feel in my opinon, too static like my superior drummer 2.0. Still good but just not the type of feel I look for in drummers :/ makes the band sound unorganic :'(

[tjanuranus]

@SeanAsheOfficial actually he is a much more dynamic player than another drummer in DT history.

[Aristowi]

@SeanAsheOfficial Ok, if he ever wants to be in your band make sure you don't let him in.

[BrickGlass]

That was great. Good job on the video. Best DT song in a long time.

[bakaroa]

nice angle,mercy

[ownall]

This is one of the best video about DT I've found on youtube. Great Job man! :D
