Mike Portnoy - The Great Debate part 1

[TooFarFromHeaven]

Definitely the worst thing about the DT/MP split is that Mike Portnoy won't ever be able to utilize his entire skill set anymore... so sad

[jmasterX]

Mangini, C'mon, you didn't have to dislike the video. Be a good sport...

[OKEKOBEB]

man, what happened to my drum hero?

[nicodico74]

Mike,an alien from planet drummmmmm.............

[TheWhitealbum22]

does anyone know who does this song?

[tspil263]

@TheWhitealbum22

Dream Theater...

[MH4wk98]

@TheWhitealbum22 I hope you're joking...

[tspil263]

Take another look... It's 3!! And he has used four in the past!!!

[VirgilDonatela]

Uma das músicas mais complicadas de tocar..eu acho essa mais bruta que The Dance of Eternity.

[dreamtheater216]

best criative !

[gozac123]

One of Portnoy's underrated performances. His composition is very creative. I'm hearing a lot of influences from Peart and Bozzio. Brilliant.

[myrro666]

typing while listening...

can't concetrate to say something mindful

let me just spit out this...

HE'S THE MAN xP

[ProphecyAD]

who in the world would dislike this? only reason being is because they're jealous :P, hell i wish i could do stuff like this haha

[Pamp509]

2 hi hats!!

[Coldmystery]

This was one of the high points of percussive creativity for me.

[raylgonzo]

What is Mike doing to the snare drum at 1:47-48?

[rsyyjh4n6r7xtygb45bt]

@raylgonzo he's turning on the snares

[Slestcha]

@raylgonzo He's turning the snares on... If you listen well you notice the sound of the snare changes...

[FrizzyDiouleBiGbonus]

pfff it's sooo good!!!

[petruccired]

el mejor de todos los tiempos, increíble como puede crear todos esas armonías simplemente perfectas,ahora Dream theater no sera el mismo con ese baterista de estudio,me imagino que petrucci debe estar escribiendo todas sus partituras al igual como escribe la mayor parte de las letras de los discos,mangini nunca va a crear como lo hace portnoy, Dream theater murió.

[shawada40]

Trop fort..

[portnoyere]

1 dislike from Mangini

[morphaacuarius]

[Iknowwhere1is]

[IIRIEIFILIEX]

His toms sound godly.

[ProgresivePrototipe]

He visto tocar a Mike Mangini esta cancion en directo con Dream Theater.Y no tiene nada que ver...hace cosas que no tienen que ver, que no es lo que creo Mike PORTNOY.Enfin....Aver si vuelve este MONSTRUO que le da mil vueltas a Mangini.

[serpentinessarecute]

I bet all these DVDs came in handy for Mr. Mangini...

[Transferhell]

@serpentinessarecute dude i just loled my ass off!

[baloa1515]

my brother is guitarrista good

[baloa1515]

mike portnoy - great debate good music - I am the venezuela ... i am drumming good [iminent rb=anim][/rb]

[baloa1515]

mike portnoy - great debate good music - I am the venezuela ... muy buen baterista gracias a el ya qw todo lo q se de bateria lo se gracias a el .. muchas bendiciones hermano .. y para adelante

[DonPetrushka]

Fucking amazing!

[Hugomtl]

I just say... Good luck Mangini to learn all Dream Theater songs LOoll But I know he can do that!!

[scorpa65]

Mangini does it great. Watch the zurick live its almost DVD quality.

[abhimuscat]

is it just me or does anyone else feel a tool kind of vibe from 4:16 onwards??

[zelikki]

Mann. I just can't imagine Mangini to play like this. The only comfort I get when I imagine Mangini as the new drummer of DT, is that DT has already made its best albums. Can't really see Mangini play (for example) this song with the right beat and soul. Damn. I just makes me so sad that I may never see DT as it used to be. plrölrörörörö.

[stemer87]

@zelikki watch?v=Xng-uqafBJE&feature=pl­ayer_embedded ;)

[soberserene]

lets see mangini play this! im a proud portnoy fanboy and as far as im concerned you are gonna replace this!

[mlopezc200x1]

@soberserene I don´t know if you have seen the video about the auditions where Mangini was selected. He´s the man. For sure Portnoy is one of the bests, but Mangini doesn´t have anything to envy from Portnoy. In fact Mangini has more time to play than Portnoy. They are good friends too.

[juan911226]

and I thought Lars was the best.... great mistake

[Abdullahisall]

4:49

awwwww yeahhh!!

[rijssenrulez]

Best drummer in the world

[kdarkcrashthin]

i think the album version of the song is a big deal harder than this one, he made it easier jajajaj

[MatsKaarbo]

...in the DVD, does he talk about how The Great Debate came about and what where going through their minds politically and creatively? I would really like to know, before purchasing the DVD :)

[Zynpar09]

Let me guess, you got the In Constant Motion DVD on Christmas right?

[btevoxboy6835]

he is a god. no doubt about it

[lucasdreamdruidt]

Mike is clearly a genius, for me he is the best.

[Transferhell]

@lucasdreamdruidt yeah he is. musicaly, when i think about genius he's the first in my mind. then next is Petrucci, D.Derrel and Corey Taylor. Only my opinion.

[sofitube]

My best drummer.

[Eddie147741]

OMG Pure genius!!!!

[elacort]

Increíblemente virtuoso!

[concreteeater12]

God Mode ~~~ Off  [On]
