  • GODDAMNIT FOLKS, DAVE DIDN'T KNEW HE HAD TO DO THE SOLO AND HE DIDN'T KNOW THE SOLO,

    Sorry for raging all caps but everyone is saying that Mustaine sucked, BE informed..

  • Comment removed

  • This was going great, until Dave showed up.

  • I agree lol... that was a pretty bad solo Dave!

  • @MVDF84 Find a better quality video. That solo is actually pretty fucking awesome. Although, he did jump out of the key at the end there.

  • 1. Fuck everything about Petrucci's hair.

    2. I consider myself a huge Megadeth and Mustaine fan, but shit that solo sucked.

  • só o Phil Anselmo fazia esse grito do final perfeito, mais ninguém

  • It obvious dave is improving the solo so Its all good. and Dime would be happy as hell that one of his heros was playing his solo

  • "Whatta hell is this" - Thinking Petrucci during Dave's solo

  • Where's Allen?

  • @Ivan96M LMAO are you kidding? look at 2:33 :)

  • @SunburstGuitarsDan I didn't see him D: Thx

  • 3:15 high five for metal ><

  • Best 7:41 of my life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Burton: Threwwww awwwlll theeeesseeee cUMplex yirs. I twhouaght ay wazz a lowwwnnnn

  • If Dime could only hear this, he would come back to bumrape Dave for wanking over his epic solo.

  • idc it's a tribute to one of the greatest guitarists of all time.

  • Damn, dime Hits the End Notes Higher with his guitar than a Keyboard. Thats Fuckin AWESOME!!!!

  • this is inexcusable.....don't do a cover if you plan shit all over the original....Dime deserves better if the real intention was a tribute that is.

  • @slitherlock Hmm. A fan of Korn and Lamb of God trying to critique music? Interesting.

  • That was a cool thing to do for Dime, man.

  • @1ballz08 If Dime was alive, he would bust Dave's ass for this.

  • @Leiarh777 LOL. I'm assuming you're referring to Dave's less than stellar solo? Yeah, I know. No one can do it better than Dime, man. :)

  • Russell Allen the best vocalist here!and ''here'' on Earth!

  • nah.. dave just didnt time the solo right... his tempo was too fast... wasnt exactly what u might say butchered either... still accepted within the range for live performances... its a good song to remember dimebag derrell by... after all if there ever was a metal ballad this would be it...

  • nah.. dave just didnt time the solo right... his tempo was too fast... wasnt exactly what u might say butchered... still accepted within the range for life performances... its a good song to remember dimebag derrell by... after all if there ever was a metal ballad this would be it...

  • heres the thing...you guys call yourself musicians yet you criticize another fantastic musician for utilizing his owns style and creativity and adapting it to something else. thats what musicianship is about, not who can play something perfectly.

  • @Gelato556 musicianship is about staying in tune and staying on time... he failed at both

    but it's alright, cos i'm sure dimebag would've been stoked to see him play one of his solos, and besides i do like dave's shredding style better than petrucci's... but I think the pressure of playing with Dream Theater got to dave

  • they are readinf from a teleprompter. dont cover such a great band and disrespect them by not even knowing the worlds. and playin a great guitar rift on a fucking piano. dave is still my man even tho he cant play like dime

  • Petrucci should do the freaking solo, he is A LOT MORE qualified to do something like THAT.

  • @Cytrus0 So true Dude...

  • @Cytrus0 petrucci is a better overall guitarist but dave is a better metal guitarist

  • @Shotgunmerc Dimebags the best guitarist of all time

  • hey fails the whole thing is awsome

  • Comment removed

  • @Guyverhoeven well at least Kirk doeesnt fail as miserably as Dave, i love dave for creating megadeth overall but John Petrucci should have played that solo

  • Comment removed

  • Anyone notice how Allen didnt high five Labrie at 3:15

    lmao, I hope it was in good fun, and not an act of douche baggery

  • @Diemtay I think he had all his weight momentum going forward so he couldn't control his arm speed and missed the high five. He's a big guy so it's plausible haha. He's definitely not a douche though, Russell is a great guy, so is Labrie.

  • Legends. Legends everywhere.

  • Idon't care who failes in the vocals or in the solo, thumbs up if you think that it's fucking amazing the simple fact that some living gods play together one of most kick ass song of an actual god. DIMEBAG IS GOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!!!

  • not too familiar but which one is russel allen and which is burton c bell i know who they are but which parts do they do?

  • @kornhelius if you're unable to hear the difference you just suck.

  • Oh ..thats a heavy as song by the way..My Mom died too when I was young too...

  • What all you dumb fucks miss is that everyone personalized their own experience and put into their own performance of this cover...I think that is commendable...None of you know from what I witnessed had anything to do with this performance ..so shut the fuck up!!

  • @iapiaya I don't have to be involved in the performance to think some aspects were just bad, if they really were. For instance, I didn't write your comment, but can I see it's stupid.

  • holy shit the contrast between petrucci and mustaine is huge

  • A perfect song played by perfect band! that is AWESOME!!!

  • Rob Zombie would sound so much better on Burton C. Bell's place!!!

  • I love how Russell Allen comes in and unquestionably destroys James Labrie in every way. He should have just sung the whole damn song.

  • @Kwert James LaBrie isn't made to sing this kind of song, though

  • @DirectShot999 true, this isnt labrie's home ground in terms of vocal style, but still an awesome rendition, the falsetto ending is epic as Labrie hardly ever uses falsetto. In his day he'd hit those kinda notes in a mixed chest no problem.

  • @Kwert James Labrie destroys Russel Allen in general, and in this song they are singing pretty different parts, of which i think Labrie's si sung excellently, as is Allen's. They are both awesome singers, but Russell can't touch Labrie

  • @shakalamon LaBrie is an excellent singer in his own right, it's just that next to Allen's far more dramatic mid-range he sounds like a total pussy. At their level of vocal skill, I think they're just too different to call one "better". One thing is for sure, though, and that is that Burton C. Bell is fucking insane or utterly deluded to step onto a stage with those two.

  • @antonio610 haha, well personal taste aside (i still love James mid in this) I agree Allen does have a very dramatic mid which is awesome and one of his best assets, unlike Labrie's highs and soft stuff which is where he dominates. But I completely agree with that, Burton C. Bell failed on a monstrous level, without being next to 2 world class vocalists, the fact he was next to them just adds to the rediculousness of his attempt at singing.

  • only dave a burton did their parts bad but dream theater did it awsome this is a piece of cake for them

  • I'd like to know who Dimebag Darrell Williams is, cause I'm pretty sure his last name is Abbott.

  • Dave should of sung this

  • there should be more things like this in the world, members from 4 respected bands, yet all from remotely styles of metal, all jamming to a song that is amazing, and even different further from the 4 band's style.

  • Alright, with this many different subgenres of metal onstage, it's going to sound like a bit of a mashup and it won't be perfect, but i still think it was very heartfelt and interesting. Stop comparing the people onstage because it's probably a lock they're better musicians than youtube commenters

  • Burton C. Bell should have been smarter than to step onto a stage with James LaBrie and Russell Allen.

  • Dave's solo was terrible. And this is coming from a 10 year Megadeth fan.

  • hey dude, you do know dime's last name is ABBOTT not williams right?

  • King ALLEN !!!! =) 

  • the 2nd singer came up did quite well if you ask me who was it?

  • @frankster666metal

    russell allen (symphony x)

  • thumbs up if dave should have sung it 

  • oh fuck dave fucked up bad

  • wow thats probably the shittiest solo i have ever heard.. no wontder metallica kicked your ass.. and why is it that dream theatre instrumental parts are so sick but the vocals suck so bad!

  • the 3 vocals really suck, someone from the audience could do it better

  • Dave's solo, imo, ruled, but it seemed a little outta place, like in Back to the Future when Marty goes off on Earth Angel (lol awesome). Other Singers were outta place too, bad harmony, Labrie alone woulda made for a decent classiclly DTish sounding cover

  • @booyakaburger no, its just shit. Plain and simple!

  • dave hit the solo perfectly. blame the singer. he fucking sucked balls. get fucking phil anselmo in there for god's sake. amen.

  • Defo think Russel Allan was the best vocalist XD

  • I havent really listned to Dream Theater that mutch so i thought, cool maybe il do after this legendary song. but fuck... this is just so bad. music is ok but vocals really suck

  • @Tidus949

    Well, none of the singers sing in DT

  • @Tidus949 what the hell did you expect? its a cover, and im my opinion its still pretty awesome

  • shit like this in Argentina means fucking apocalypse in the crowd....

  • @DegraDeadlock yeah, I'm not trying to be too critical. There might have been other problems as well, e.g. Dave's monitor not working correctly.

  • I am a fan of Dave... but that solo was horrible... really horrible

  • anselmo has a much stronger/better voice.

  • tell me why at 1:55, that John Petrucci looks a little like Kane Hodder lol

  • Dave didnt fail the solo, his sound did, you couldnt hear all he was playing. He didnt play it perfectly no, but not many people could exactly if they wanted to

  • why does everyone have to rag on dave? just cause he can play better than everyone that comments on this video?

  • both solos were... bad, only mustaine's was worse XD

  • It's pretty fucking funny that everyone here is slamming Dave for the solo, saying he failed, but almost everyone has FAILED themselves to mention how fucking GOD AWFUL...TERRIBLE...HORRIBLE...­Burton C. Bell's vocals were. Didn't hit a single goddamn note

  • @tube51 Yeah but he did the Phil Anselmo style pretty decently.

  • @tube51 Neither did dave mustaine by the sound of it :P

  • @tube51 At LAST!!! One who has real ears!!! And knows how to use them!!! This cover SUCKS BIG TIME!!! If Darrell was alive, he'd kill' em all himself!

  • @tube51 Russell Allen did so much better

  • @tube51 Bell was never a true singer. He fits great at Fear Factory for what he does, but he's not really a "singing" type of person

  • @tube51 No, everyones slamming him because Dave Mustaine sucks the biggest cock in the world and it's the only thing he's good at. 

  • @tube51 lol he did fuck up and personally i don't think Dave did too bad on Dime's solo the only flaw is that NO ONE IN EARTH can match Dime's tone.

  • @tube51 thats because Dave mustaine failed much harder than he did

  • @tube51 Hell yeah, Burton Sucks, always has, Dave did ok on the solo, he didnt play it Note for Note. He did out of respect for Dime.

  • Petrucci and Mustaine should've switched solo parts

  • @Bradangus713 mustaine is great, but petrucci is another league

  • i hate mustaine

  • @JordanStratocaster For why? He is one of the best guitarrists, first listen the last solo of Holy Wars!!

  • Jordan on last wails FTW

  • Dimebag dies in 2004.

  • 3:52 At La-UHHHH!

  • rip dimebag darrell williams.

  • Comment removed

  • Dave Mustaine is a guitar master, saying otherwise is wrong.

    You were all expecting the Cemetary Gates solo, weren't you? Were expecting it note-for-note? Were you expecting the ENTIRE SONG note-for-note, sound exactly like Pantera the whole time?

    If so, then shame on you. It's a cover, it's gonna differ. If it was the exact same as Pantera, then why bother covering the song at all?

  • to people who say that some petrucci character is a better lead guitarist, rhythm guitarist, or musician than Dave Mustaine is a fucking moron.

  • Nothing on the original- no one will ever get close

    But a great tribute to the greatest band of all time.

  • yeah! 4:21 slipknot tatto??

  • Petrucci should have played the shredding part

  • With all due respect to Mr. Mustaine...He just can't shred. lol

  • everybody has his own style, and it seems you kids don't know this. Dave Mustaine is one of the metal masters. If you are so god damn good, better than him, you should kick him out of his own band. What? What are you talking under your breath? Ahh, you cannot play the guitar at all...hmmm that's a shame. I'm convinced that a tiny part of you all can play something on any instrument, including those toy pianos...

  • @lpcustomvs Dave is a god. He has melted my face on many occasions, being my favorite metal icon and the the heart and soul of my favorite band. I saw Megadeth live last summer during the Rust In Peace 20th Anniversary Tour. Best concert of my life.

  • @lpcustomvs

    there are a lot of better people than dave mustaine or the other famous musicians. the just don't necessarly get the opportunity to show what they got and to play big gigs. i bet my ass that here on youtube there are a lot of better players than dave mustaine.

  • @CptChaos88 Then your ass is mine.

  • @lpcustomvs AMEN! youre SO right!

  • oh god ... please stop this crap ><

  • stop dave.....please.....stop

  • dave mustaine = FAIL

  • I'm reading the comments and i'm wondering if people ever thought that maybe he improved this solo and went 100% on feel since it was suppose to be a tribute to dime, maybe he just wanted to go out there and play what he was feeling at the solo. Of course i could be terribly wrong and i'm not saying he didn't fuck up cuz it definetly coulda been better but it just looked to me like it was improved for emotion and was purposely not planned out.

  • my nutts woulda went off if i were there

  • Wow I love those high notes from Labrie near the end!

  • This is a metal head's wet dream. DT and Mustaine paying tribute to Darryl is a sign of complete respect. Don't you people know that DT is a group of incredible musicians and Dave Mustaine is a legend of thrash that is a technical player in his own right? What a rare moment to have them together on the same stage paying tribute to the musical genius that was Dimebag Darryl Abbot. If you talk shit on this I will reply with vitriol and a desire to plant my foot in your ass.

  • i think the only way this coulda been better is if dime came up from the dead and played...

  • well they had labrie singing the clean parts, but since he couldn't do the more growling parts, they had the other guys come in. I'm sure the only reason they had dave do the solo is because they wanted to feature him in the song, because petrucci is a better lead player (however, dave destroys him at rhythm)

  • the guitarist looks like the guy from dream theatre

  • @tweak666616 That's because it IS the guy from DT.

  • @Videostar1another1fa sorry dude wasent aware of how awesome dt is till shortly after the comment 1 year since i posted was drunk n possibly trolling for someone to get pissed forgive me sir

  • i would love to hear this with dave on vocals. that would be badass!!

  • OMG Mustaine is so bad, he just comes out and plays whatever notes is closest to his fingers, geez. And how arrogant must he be to try to solo after Petrucci????

  • @pcs800 fan boy?

  • @metalskullking Fan boy? 1 - I am no boy. 2 - Yes I am a Dream Theater fan, but I am also a Megadeth fan. 3 - Anyone with any musicical ability what so ever can tell you that Dave Mustaine is nowhere near the guitarist that John Petrucci is. Mustaine writes great songs, writes great rhythm parts, but he is a terrible solo guitar player.

  • @pcs800 I personally think he tried to do the solo in the Megadeth style, as each of the artists tried to put their own spin on the song. I'll admit that it wasn't anywhere near the original quality but Dave was close to Dimebag back in the day and he apparently decided to pay his respects like any good musician would: with his music. I don't think arrogance had anything to do with it, he's definitely improved his image from the past and he's doing much better musically.

  • @HereticChild Being a professional musician for most of my life, and having played with Dimebag before, I can tell you that Dave Mustaine has never been anywhere near the guitarist that Dime was. Dave writes great rythms and songs, but his soloing lacks style, it lacks precision, it lacks following scales. He was there because he knew Dime, he actually asked dime to join megadeth before they hired Marty Friedman, but Dime wouldn't join without his brother coming along as well, Dave refused.

  • @HereticChild And yes I agree, Dave has improved his image in recent years. He used be a complete ass but seems to be a little nicer to people these days.

  • @pcs800 Especially if you were there for the Big 4 show at the Sonisphere festival. That should definitely shut up a lot of Dave's detractors. In fact, I think that night is probably the best thing to happen to Thrash fans in metal history. I felt amazed watching that entire thing.

  • mustaine is the shit!

  • terrible...they killed the song..anselmo must be pissed..la brie is not good!!

  • petrucci kiills dave mustaine with the Z chord ;)

    dave i think is a little over rated

  • @ricardoestrella11 He aint,back in the day he was perfect,thsi was a few months after Mustaine had the hand accident,thats why it looks sloppy.

  • Burton C.Bell F.T.W

  • R.I.P. Dime..........................­.....

  • James voice is too "sweet", doesn't fit in this song

  • James failed the high screams.... argghh....and Fear Factory guys just plain SUX MAJOR ASS, EPIC FAIL. but Dream Theater hell yes, R.i.P DimE...

  • i was there!!! i couldnt believe my eyes!

  • @metallicaruiz mooother fucker lucky asss

    jajajaja

    awsome

  • it's watching videos like these that i get sure that Phil motherfucker Anselmo can really sing like a beast

  • i love the fat kid at 4:26 !

  • I love dave mustaine even thought this time he failed... but he is cool

  • @HolyGK i agree

  • @MrMierdakonxx hey, shut up, ok?! dream theater are a great band...
