  • 0:08 damn, Mike is buff.

  • i can do that.

  • It's foot Cowbell man. I'm Bruce Dickinson and this song needs more EYE!!!

  • Years and all he taught me- makes me laugh you are trolling about this video

  • @riddleman65 keep it up you are making me laugh. I studied with Mi,ke for 2'

  • I love foot percussion pedals. :D

  • He can also poke LaBrie with his mind :D

  • Jordan, thank you for letting us in! Please keep it up. I did end up getting an IPad just for the Morphwiz and Geowiz...wife thinks I'm crazy...

  • A Wild Mangini appeared...

  • So am I the only one that finds arguing with "riddleman65" to be entertaining?

  • Hilarious! I like drummers that have awesome talent yet has a sense of humor

  • Its all in the eyes..All these years playing and I never knew that. Thanks Mike

  • haha Mike your awesome!!!

    Dream Theater Rules!!!

  • riddleman65, get a life motherfucker

  • I guess he really is a "man genie"

    lololol.

  • @headcrusher0032 In the opening animated video for their concerts, his character is a genie lol

  • He's... obviously, got a FEVAH.... (Christopher Walken voice)

  • HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY (c) James LaBrie <3

  • jjajajajja :) great XD hey DT when are you goign to came to play in argentina??? :D DT the best!!!!!

  • HEY! lol james

  • why 8 dislike this video

  • @cahyaterang777 LaBrie question too... you can hear James at the end of the video... XD

  • I hope this beat is on a new song, it's such a easy yet groovy tune =]

  • hey Jordan, it's "magic eye trick" + "HEY! touch" (0:17)

  • luv u Jordan :)

  • Mangini is one of the best in his respected genre. A consummate professional. And he seems to be a really decent person.

  • wow, what a shitty beat, i could play that my first lesson, this guy sucks

  • @riddleman65 Hahaha XD Move your slow hand at 300 bpm for a minute straight, then we talk :P

  • @AspiringRocker729

    300 bpm per hand would imply a 600 bpm single stroke, which actually isn't that fast at all. Most players who have been training for a few years can do this.

  • @riddleman65

    He has all the speed records for single strokes, you know that, right ? And he was a professor at Berklee on drums.

  • @BlackenedThunder

    >he thinks being fast makes you a good drummer

  • @riddleman65

    I never said that. I talked about your statements of "Most players who have been training for a few years can do this." and "I could play that my first lesson." I explained what his limit is, I never talked about whether he is a good drummer or not.

  • @BlackenedThunder

    Yes most novice players can do 600 BPM, and I could play this beat my first lesson. Thank you for agreeing with me that this fag is not a good drummer.

  • @riddleman65

    I didn't deny the fact that "Most novice players can do 600 BPM" or "You could play this beat in your first lesson". So, you don't have to defend those statements because I never argued about them.

    I never said that he's not a good drummer. Like I said before, I never talked about whether he is a good drummer or not, all you're doing is misunderstanding the concepts I'm talking about.

    He's a good drummer, you should check out his other stuff.

  • @BlackenedThunder

    "i never did this, i never did that"

    So basically what you're saying is, your previous comment didn't say anything. Great, thanks for the contribution.

  • @riddleman65

    You're talking nonsense about my comments, you seem to have a pretty hard time understanding what the others say about your thoughts. What do you want me to do ? Accept things that you say I did but in reality I didn't ? If that's what you want, you're going to have a hard time finding it.

  • @BlackenedThunder

    You accepted that I could play this beat my first day, so therefore this guy sucks. Thank you for agreeing with me.

  • @riddleman65

    Playing a basic thing doesn't make you bad.

  • @BlackenedThunder

    >he thinks playing this beat makes you the best drummer in the world

  • @riddleman65

    Ok, that's enough, you're pathetic. Good day.

  • @BlackenedThunder

    You mad I'm right, bro? You taking your ball and going home? lol.

  • @riddleman65

    Kid, you're a dumbass. Go home. If you knew anything about music you'd be able to make some constructive comments. Instead u talk nonsense. Go look up some Thomas Lang, then go look at some Mangini. Mangini isn't my fav drummer but he's still one of the better drummers out there, and if you had an inkling of musical aptitude, you'd see that. So, stop trolling and gtfo?

  • @EvesonC

    I know who Thomas Lang is. He can play circles around this clown. You honestly think this beat is good? This is amateur stuff.

  • @riddleman65 dude really he is just messing around. its not like he is playing his heart out calm down

  • @riddleman65 Internet Expert Level: Over 9000?

  • @psychonavigator

    More like trolling expert, amirite.

  • @riddleman65

    If that's going to stop you from talking, let's say it is.

  • @BlackenedThunder

    Thank you for agreeing with me that you people actually believe this beat makes him a good drummer.

  • @riddleman65 Do you even know who are you talking about? What a retard!

  • @GHOSTVAL

    Yea, some fag who plays the shittiest beat in the world.

  • @riddleman65 ok it's your opinion. But I mean did you know that this 'fag' is one of the greatest drummer in the world? I'd recommend to read about him a bit more, listen what he's actually playing when he's serious. Then come back and post your opinion. I hope you are not really that hopeless ignorant as it seems now.

  • @GHOSTVAL

    >plays a simple beat that anyone can play

    >greatest drummer in the world

    Uh, have you faggots ever heard of travis barker? joey jordinson? you know, people who actually know how to play real grooves instead of something that I could do my first time behind a drumset? you needs to watch more yotuube.

  • @riddleman65 WTF did I just read? While Joey and Travis are cool in their own way, they're not even close to Mangini in any way, shape or form. He is a goddamn professor of drums, literally, and you think this is the only beat he can play? If you are trolling I salute you, if not, kill yourself.

  • @riddleman65 Oh look, it's a nu metal troll.

  • @iAmPesukone

    >implying I mentioned anything about nu metal

    >implying because I don't think anything about this beat is good, I must listen to nu metal

    Too many logical fallacies in your argument to list. I suggest taking a shower, washing the fail off, and trying again.

  • @riddleman65

    > Travis Barker

    > Joey Jordison

    Also, 0/5.

  • @iAmPesukone

    Come on, I wouldn't say 0.

  • @riddleman65 Alright, I'll say 2/5 since you did get fed by a few people.

  • @riddleman65

    you're a fuck head

  • @corey0881

    Wow. Good one. How long did it take you to come up with that one?

  • @riddleman65 And this is why 12 year old children shouldn't post comments on YouTube.

  • @XxStrongDrums1996xX

    Actually, I've seen 12 year olds play drums better than this, so your comment is invalid.

  • @riddleman65 Again, this is why 12 year old children shouldn't post comments. Nothing I spoke of in my comment preceding to this one had any relation to the demonstration in this video, therefore, therefore, your claim does not invalidate my comment :)

    Get back to class bud

  • @XxStrongDrums1996xX

    Your comment is filled with redundant words that you intentionally put in there to make you sound smarter. What sucks is that someone actually smarter than you has caught it and called you out on it, creating the opposite effect. Go home, take a shower, wash the fail off, try again.

  • @riddleman65 Again, incorrect. You seem to be under the impression that I am a pseudo intellectual person, when in fact I am not. Stop trying to make yourself believe that you actually have any authority, as you are an uneducated troll, and are serving as entertainment for all of the people on this video. Your comments are FILLED with logical fallacies that just make me chuckle. As previously stated, get back to class bud :)

  • @XxStrongDrums1996xX

    >doesn't point out any logical fallacies

    >does nothing but name calling

    >doesn't think he's committing any logical fallacies

    Oh you.

  • @riddleman65 >Thinks that I need to point anything out in order to validate my argument

    >Assumes that declarative sentences are name calling

    >Obviously doesn't know the definition of a logical fallacy

    >Thinks he's making me mad

    XD

  • @riddleman65 Lol I also think it's funny that you are trying to troll by calling this a "shitty" beat. Lemme guess. Your favorite drum groove is.....................a blast beat? This is a traditional jazz pattern with a constant eighth note pattern on the hi hat (that incorporates dynamics) on top of a quarter note cowbell ostinato. Trust me bro, this isn't a shitty beat.

  • @riddleman65 Whoops! I wasn't paying attention XD That's a broken right hand pattern that not only incorporates dynamics, but varies across different voices. Get back to playing chk chk KAT chk chk chk KAT little boy. Arguing with you is just too easy.

  • @XxStrongDrums1996xX

    It's a basic bossa nova groove that I learned my first day of taking lessons. Uh oh, looks like someone who takes one lesson is better than Mike Mangini. Seriously, I've seen kids warm up with stuff harder than that.

  • @riddleman65

    @riddleman65

    Because drummers only ever play the hardest things they know.

    Clearly, you know nothing about music at all, but that's been made obvious many times now. Really, everything you say is invalid.

  • @riddleman65 Dude, its called practising, not every drummer does massive fills to warm up. Just listen to his drumming on Dream Theater's newest album.

    Now shut up and sit down...

  • @riddleman65 I can't tell if you're trolling or not. If you are, good job!

  • @andSometimesY

    Thanks!

  • @riddleman65

    Seeing how long it took me to figure out that you are in fact a fuck head is not the point. The fact is that just because Mike played this "shitty beat", does not summarize his entire career in drumming. He is a phenomenal drummer and percussionist. And you coming onto this video - once again not a video that summarizes his whole career - and placing a comment like the one you did, makes no one agree with you or say "Hey, he's right, this guy must be better", makes you a fuck head.

  • @riddleman65 Cool story troll. Its sad to see how you consider Jordison and Barker to be better than Mangini. Thats like saying you're too much of a man to have sex. It just doesnt make sense. Mangini is one of those drummers who continues to push the limits of what you can do on drums,and Im sorry you're too blinded to acknowledge that.

  • @scp2392

    >he thinks being able to play a bossa nova makes you the best drummer in the world

    Wow. Good one.

  • @riddleman65 YOU ARE SOOOOO GAYYYYY!!! You're an obvious troll and also a retard.

  • Comment removed

  • :D

  • Huhuh?? Ginieeeeeeeee

  • x D

  • haha

  • tell the cat to stop mauling

  • Mike's face when he blinks his eyes kills me. I honestly can't understand how Jordan managed to not burst into laughter.

  • One does not simply "play drums" for Dream Theater

  • WHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY xD

  • James LaBrie Teleports the band to Earth for tour, and Petrucci Adjusts the suns tempreture and location for their prefered weather

  • @DeMoSheFtaLiaS thanks for that. We all really thought it was magic.

  • @andyclutts You, sir, have just won the internet. Congratulations.

  • he play with drum pedals on the cowbells , its not magic 

  • @DeMoSheFtaLiaS wow looks like Sherlock Holmes likes DT aswell XD

  • it's from his feet

  • @mayoarm11 no shit sherlock ;)

  • at 0:16 you can see how he works magic he does a labrie´s hey!!!

  • Portnoy may be awesome, but he can't do magic!

  • Comment removed by Mangini's Eye Trick

  • Portnoy wants back in, but they don't want him. They say the band is boring enough.

  • hahaha mike mangini is like the epitome of hard working ..so bad ass

  • This is the final proof. He's better than Portnoy.

  • I was ready for the camera man to say, "these are my guitars".

  • lol I had to watch the video like 3 times to realize that John Petrucci is the camera man xD

  • @MegadethMagnetc it's rudess..not petrucci

    :)

  • "no comment"

  • in the foot ._.

  • haha i lold..

  • Almost as cool as eating small mammals and timewarping

  • was this in AZ?

  • Cool Mike. Nothing like having fun on the road without any bad blood in the band. Rock on!!!!

  • 0:17 Looks like Mike can also make some Labries' «Heeeyyy» with his fingers!

  • @Mistpianist Forehead-sweaty-fingers.

  • I can also make someone go "Heeeyyy" using my fingers...you wanna see? ;) hehe...I'm can be so twisted...=P

  • @Mistpianist lol I didn't notice! XD

  • Comment removed

  • @Mistpianist hahaha brilliant!!!

  • @Mistpianist and Rudess says "That s awesome!"

  • Comment removed

  • Just for any confused people - watch his legs near the end ;)

  • @VoodooRock01 Furthermore, you can hear a slight beat when he does it. It's common in latin percussion to use legs to beat cowbells. Sorry Mr. Ruddess if I keep "Breaking all ilussions"...Hope to see you in Argentina soon, by the way!

  • Mike "The Man" Genie

  • more cowbell?

  • 0:18

    "HEEY!" lol xD

  • You guys have it all.. Money, talent, great music, tours, amazing live shows... And you deserve it

  • Hipster Genie

  • So we have...

    John BEARtrucci

    James "The Pirate" LaBrie

    Jordan "The Wizard" Rudess

    John "X Factor" Myung

    and now...Mike ManGENIE

    Epic.

  • @alifeson85 THE X FACTOR? I DONT UNDERSTAND THAT ..

  • @alifeson85 John Myung is Actually "The Ninja" and Mike is "ManDschini" :D take a look at their new tour shirts, they are great. And the cartoon before the show starts is really epic!

  • @alifeson85 on the t-shirt they made, petrucci is god (zeus in that case) and myung a ninja xD

  • James has the coolest mic stand in history. 

  • Ha ha ha!!!That's cool!!

  • you're just awsome :D

  • Mike is soooooooooooooo cool, I guess Jordan's happy with his new tricks partner

  • I told you he wasn't human! \m/

  • hahaha mike is cool!!! or no... dt is cool!!!! thank you guys

  • "Heeeey! Whyyyy?" Haha James :)

  • Wheeeeezy Waiterrrrrrrrrr

  • James LaBrie at 00:23 "I'M WATCHING YOU."

  • WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?

  • MORE THAN WOOOOOOOOOOOOOODS ♪ ♫

    hahaha.. :D

  • Mangini is a genius. Why I didn't think about that before?

  • WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?

  • Hahahaha! And i like the tempo

  • TWO WIZARDS IN DREAM THEATER?

    I don't think my little heart can take it.

  • Jordan is the Wizard

    James is the Pirate

    Mike is the Genie

    Then what about John and John?

    We need to call them something with "the" in the name

    So we can't really call JP "the God" or the "the Jesucci"

    And let's at least trying to resist calling JM "the Mute"

    Any suggestions?

  • @White1Tiger2Dan The Bear and The Ninja

  • @aeonzenmusic The Ninja is cool, I'm not so sure about the Bear though

  • @White1Tiger2Dan What about the Fearless.

  • @Zybezane Might work.

    .

  • @White1Tiger2Dan myung = the monk

  • @White1Tiger2Dan Get a girlfriend

  • @White1Tiger2Dan John Myung is already the Ninja, the video introduction at the concert said so! :3

  • @White1Tiger2Dan Sigh. Jordan is the Wizard, James is the Pirate, Mike is the Genie, John is the Bear, JM is the Ninja. Everyone knows that! Even my mom knows their nicknames and she doesn't listen to DT ;)

  • @RowenaSpiteFoul I knew the first 3, just not the 2 Johns.

    Well good info though I guess, eh? XD
