[Gianlu196]

[jjadzable]

[merlynfry]

Love the way that he's still playing whilst before the credits roll-in; almost like saying "you maybe done but I'm just getting started"

[SniperMacabro]

Fodastico!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SniperMacabro]

[merlynfry]

[jjadzable]

@merlynfry Its Sea of lies NOT dragon's den also dragon's den is amazing like any other !!

[nachoakley]

4:18 nothing more to say!

[sauter1]

Insanely good! He's possibly the most complete and flawless metal guitarist ever. He truly excels at every aspect - awesome rhythm playing, incredible accuracy of touch and timing, blistering speed, great expression and melody, textbook technique with superbly economical and flawless movement and perfect relaxation. He has no weakness! And he also looks like he's a very humble, almost shy guy in this video. Huge respect.

[Zombywoof91]

I WAS gunna crack a fat joke, but I don't have shit! hahaha

[ugie88]

@Zombywoof91

hahaha..nice one, bro

[SatanLovesMetal]

can someone please re- upload this clip because u can do hd then and that would be great!

[StrangelyReal]

I have seen this video a million times... but it still amazes me. DT is my favorite band but... wow... it is hard to admit it but I prefer Michael Romeo´s playing than that of Petrucci´s, all the classical embellishments (mordentes, thrills, etc..) are well put in his style. I am not saying I can play better than any of them right now... but this Michael Romeo is amazing; even if Romeo and Petrucci play different styles or genres of music; I must agree with those who say Romeo is better.

[bingefeller]

Anyone heard Michael Romeo's playing on the first Phantom's Opera album? It's really amazing stuff, a completely different side to him.

[llBathoryll]

what is the first song he is playing?

[xXxjust4lulzxXx]

he's just like yngwie only good

[iPR0SH0T]

2:14 could not be more perfect

[BER2ERKER]

you faggots talking about his weight are literally the scum of the earth pieces of shit I hate. you'll never play like this fucking guy or get a quarter of the pussy he gets, EVER. so keep talking shit about a fucking legend like him, makes a lot of sense you cunts.

[jorgeandresmoncayo]

[SatanLovesMetal]

The guy is a FACKING GINIUS!

[hehawkiller]

Wow...not only does this guy sound like Malmsteen, he's even fat like him...lmao...talk about trying to be your hero a little too much.

[DeathDragon420666]

@hehawkiller stfu r-tard

[1bol1]

@hehawkiller wow...not only do you sound like a retard, you even judge people by their appearence and not by their traits and personality and creativity

[hehawkiller]

@1bol1

Does it look like I give a fuck...I'm an overweight fucker myself...so...i don't really care what you think!!!

[1bol1]

@hehawkiller fine, suit yourself

[sprinkler5802]

Jesus fucking christ, this guy is like vinnie moore on steroids

[JorgeDavidGutierrez]

[raposasinistra]

His solo’s style and technic are simply amazing ! All he does between the ends of the fretboard is fantastic. I just go crazy while listening his songs.

[ExtremeBogom]

Chubby cuppy cake boy plays metal haha

[Resetonedw]

its like a even more fat yngwie! he looks like malmsteen alot! O:

[shamone12345678910]

This video crushes your aspirations for guitar playing in a whole other way when you are high.

[dergrinsh66]

what's the song called played at the end?

[goodygoody23]

@dergrinsh66 In The Dragon's Den off of Twilight In Olympus

[BER2ERKER]

WTF emotion? Listen to the damnation game section and fucking tell me there's no

emotion in that asswipe.

[unrockbaer]

it always looks so easy when he does it...

[WishmasterTheDark]

Awesome!

[spongekilla]

a tru artist

[xPurpleDrinkx9001]

1:26 Is the only time ive seen him mess up but not really.

[rgh97]

he is magician, his pick disappear when tapping .

[Hertsman50]

this guy needs to hit the salad bar

[zetoze]

I can´t stop playing this video...

It´s really impressive

awesome guitarist 5*

[rockstar1967]

This next one is called "Foot Long Cheese Steak with mayo and onions Opus 11"

[OverNightBear]

@rockstar1967 *bro fist*

[szelidrocker]

Isaw the video called "Malmsteen vs. Romeo".I would like to say that it is unable to compare them.They are both great guitarists,fast and technical.It is true that Yngwie is more expressive and became a star in the eyes of every guitarists,but what about other guitarists,Jeff Loomis,Chris Broderick,Lukács Peta or Alapi István?They are also as good as Romeo and Yngwie.They are great in their own fields.

[chapa22monster]

I think it takes tremendous skill to be that good but it doesnt mean crap if u dont put emotion into it...and all u haters hatin on blues must not be musicians because blues broke everyone out of playing classical and jazz music....if it werent for the blues we wouldnt have the greatest guitarists of this century such as hendrix,van halen, david gilmour,dime bag,vai, satriani,or paul gilbert.if u wanna hear what this guy would sound like if he put emotion in his playin go look up jason becker

[blndsk4]

@chapa22monster why the fuck does everyone think playing with emotion means only playing sad shit? sad isnt the only emoton. anyone that can play minor scales, bend notes and add good vibrato can play with 'emotion'

[jeez0o]

@blndsk4 you can't even imagine how strongly i agreed. there is also special kind of retards thinking that playing with emotion is headbanging like cannibal corpse dudes while playing solos, lol.

[MetalInsideGust66]

I will be like him one day, but i hope not to be this ugly :B

[MrErnst4321]

stop saying hi is fat mother fuckers he is a great guitar player and your not and most likly wilh never be

[MrErnst4321]

[GameVicius]

This magic....Oh my god¡¡¡¡

There are rumors that can fly VIVA MEXICO AND MICHAEL ROMEO AND METAL......

[GoodMetalFTW]

[AtakanEfeIrak]

The world of tap solo gutarist

[jRockaX]

I'd love to see Michael Romeo and Michael Angelo Batio play on stage together. Both of their combined skills are unmatched.

[44SuperShredder]

I just think...his technique is better than anyone!

[OpusMetus]

3:37 I Love that fucking sound!

[allstarcmanscuzin]

@OpusMetus His guitar came

[ZachValkyrie]

If you listen very carefully, you can hear the sound of John Pettrucci crying.

[kieferirvine]

@ZachValkyrie

If you look closely, this guy is fat as fuck.

[Scalibq]

@kieferirvine That's just an optical illusion caused by the melting of your face and the slowing down of the universe.

[SuperXguitar]

@ZachValkyrie hope youre kidding man

[jek666]

Let us all pray to Michael Romeo.

[lewman911]

A god among mere mortals!

[AccurateEstimateftw]

[shredfactor7]

[demonof90]

[Ctuluh]

[Nidaime299]

[pantera31169311]

I bet the first time Romeo heard Yngwie Malmsteen back in the early '80s, one of his testicles dropped.

[TheTonton08]

superb

[napischu]

Yngwie Malmsteen v2.0

[orlandojames33]

[diogotomediogo]

[Alekos95]

Rapist face at 5:14

[squeamoz]

[recipoldinasty]

@squeamoz i dont get it...

[USRANIJUTJUB]

[Glutonid]

Upgraded Malmsteen.

[andretribuzymetal]

@Glutonid Malmsteen ain't shit, man. One of the most BORING guitar players ever, just loses to Michael Angelo. Bleargh.

[matyasd88]

[allstarcmanscuzin]

2:06

i just came

[BolFelix]

who really gives a fuck if he's fat? seriously??

[enjoymusic1014]

@BolFelix the world outside of metal music

[stroke117]

a god of guitar!!!!

[algrand90]

derek trucks kills this fretboard wanker

[tokiwartooth95]

@algrand90 Blues sucks.

[algrand90]

@tokiwartooth95

that's your opinion

[tokiwartooth95]

@algrand90 That may be, but Derek Trucks is nowhere near the skill level of Romeo.

[algrand90]

@tokiwartooth95

first,what is your definition of skills ??if it's speed than let me tell you that the guitar is not a sport

derek rucks makes the guitar sings while romeo sounds like packman

[tokiwartooth95]

@algrand90 Michael Romeo has mastered every form of guitar playing, he can [lay anything, Derek Trucks is not able to play the things that Romeo plays, because he isn't as good. Virtuoso's are the best guitarists, face it.

[algrand90]

@tokiwartooth95

derek trucks's tone is inimitable i can recognise his playing among 100 others nobody plays the slide guitar as good as him

romeo is a malmsteen wannabe

[tokiwartooth95]

@algrand90 Oh my, As slide guitarist, it's not like that takes only a few minutes of practice to master that stupid blues bull-shit, Romeo can play anything, while Trucks doesn't have the slightest ability to shred, AT ALL.

[DushanTorbjorn]

@algrand90 Romeo's music/technique is nothing like Malmsteens.

[nestokcamilo]

@DushanTorbjorn Michel is better, with one hour of Malmsteens I fall asleep, with Romeo I wish more and more. is a composer Philharmonic and also have better Riffs. Dimebag + Malmsteens = Michael Romeo



[DushanTorbjorn]

@nestokcamilo I also love Romeo but also have respect for Malmsteen. Remember Malmsteen came out at a time when Angus Young was a guitar god & pioneered a whole new way of playing/composing for guitar. So Romeo & every other guitarist coming out after Malmsteen should be better as they all had him for inspiration. Also once again Romeos technique or composing is nothing like Dimebag or Malmsteens, his riffs are progressive & Malmsteen is purely baroque/romantic. BREAKYOURSELF NIGGER :D

[ThatGuyCalledPhillip]

@algrand90 I can't believe you just compared Romeo to Malmsteen.

[IronGuitarist]

@algrand90 do not speak as if you are the master of all that is guitar knowledge because you are definitely not.

[KillingOnAdrenaline]

1:08- Pirate shirt

[Rafescow]

his hands are tiny... and so fucking fast :P

[Quinaitor]

He makes love to the guitar... so epic

[ElDelMixto]

parese una señora obesa

[alzico]

Romeo for the win everytime.

[Ragash91]

I wonder how can those fat fingers be so fast and precise. It's something that leaves me sleepless.

[SabaeanYared]

@Ragash91 LOOL

[vlakarados]

@Ragash91 the fingers are fat, fast and precise because they are full of awesomeness and skill

[donkeymondays86]

@Ragash91 watch some shawn lane, then youll see all fat people have the ability to surpass possible guitar technique!

[AngelicStorm1]

He is fat and looks like a girl? Meh, most guys would trade their looks with him if it meant they could play guitar like him! lol Michael Romeo is my guitar idol after Glenn Tipton! \m/

[lcastillo8787]

Why you stupid bastards care about if he's fat or not it doesn't matter I don't give a shit about it. he is one of the best guitar players have ever existed

[richie7184]

Dream theater = kings

Symphony X = gods

[JasonBecker85]

@richie7184 Symphony x = Metal

Dream Theater = MUSIC

[tropologya]

@JasonBecker85

Fuck your comment and your comment

[JasonBecker85]

@tropologya Idiot.....

[RedBAkid]

@JasonBecker85 dream theatre = boring shit for 21 minutes, that doesn't cut to the fucking chase.

[JasonBecker85]

@RedBAkid You are only a simply metaller...I'm a musician and a music lover.

[RedBAkid]

@JasonBecker85 that's not true at all, i listen to all types of music including blues, and jazz, and progressive metal (tool) i just don't like dream theatre

[xPurpleDrinkx9001]

@RedBAkid some things grow on you. Id try I&W or Awake again if you havent already.

[25jonathan]

i want to play like him someday! im currently learning sea of lies which i've now spent 3 months doing and im still only at 75% speed with some errors -.-

[zetanbow16]

this dude vs cris broderick wins? reply me

[puelladeluxe]

@zetanbow16 no one, completely different styles, michael here is progeressive and neo-classical, inspired by classial composers, broderick is a shred machine, but his leads are a complete different style of shredding. and btw music is no competition, it`s just music

[zetanbow16]

@puelladeluxe i mean who will you learn guitar from first between this 2

[zetanbow16]

@puelladeluxe also how about jeff loomis vs him

[puelladeluxe]

@zetanbow16 well i would rather have michael romeo as a teacher, why? i don't know. i like him, of course i like jeff and chris too, but i already learned some symphony x songs and i really like tha style, and i also like classical music very much, and michel combines the two, metal and classic, perfect

[calvett1986]

Beast

[GaetanPro]

O_O

[HATESLIPKNOTHATERS]

the man is a fuckin machine,made of a piece of God´s meat xD

[AdiMercury]

Michael Romeo is...FAT! O.O

[ishlopes7]

Na boa, ver esse cara tocar serve como uma injeção de ânimo, ou como motivo pra desistir... ''/

esse cara é fera!

[kivodynomite87]

He's fat because he sits playing the guitar for 23 hours a day, and has been doing so for 30 years straight... there's no other way to get that good.

[nash2201]

[shamone12345678910]

[sniper13ad]

hi im michael romeo, im fat but still better at guitar than you

[pulmonq2]

I think Michael Romeo just moves his hands and tells the guitar what to do with his mind.

[zapan250]

@pulmonq2 ahah , yea right, he's the chuck norris of guitar. He just stare at it and he told it what to do.

[audosi]
