[SuperRyanaditya]

pentek ngeri

[snlman22]

Just for an FYI of how long ago this live release came out...it was released on DVD...and VHS!!!!!

[nobolettu]

AWESOME. yeeees

[GayIndianTrollSciety]

People asks for thumbs up desperately.

If you wanted to be on the top comments, be gay like me.

[PDillingham802]

74 people don't know how to dance.

[Sadell]

I guess 74 people turned their screen around to thumbs up again.

[EpicBandanaGuy]

Only Dream Theater can get lolz as the link ending.

[MlKEPORNTOY]

Fuck Chuck Norris.

[Ignore14]

You can tell they are having fun as hell. Especially during the ragtime.

[SMG59]

jordans solo gives me the goose bumps

[MartJaHu]

I'd love to hear it with Mangini.

[Alx2ThePast]

Lyrics by John Myung.

[LedZepGuitarman]

LOOOOOOOOOL Jordan with hair hahahahaha

[RWalsh770]

Just because it has no vocals and no melody doesn't make it good

[NOFRIES22]

the vocals are really good in this one

[irwin3036able]

Man, no offense to Mike Mangini or Portnoy but DT should have hired Blake Richardson as their new drummer. It would be epic to see him behind the kit. I dunno. Maybe DT could make one final album with Mangini come 2013, and a one year tour then after that Mangini could take a break from DT. Blake Richardson could step in for just ONE album and a 2 year tour, then after that Mangini could have back his spot. :)

[Scanhorst]

@irwin3036able And what if JP wants break, and the others say no, we take steve vai.. Watch "tender surrender" and then think who can play... :)

[PaulGilbertrulezzz]

@irwin3036able Blake can stay in BTBAM...

[prurutito]

Does anybody know where or how can I get the football jersey Portnoy is wearing in this concert?

[kinginsomnia]

5:04 jordan's hand!

[JayMark2049]

I haven't seen so much talent from every member of a group at the same time since I discovered Rush.

[surgeyX]

1:55 My arm hurts just watching this part...(i play guitar :P)...

[Vihertyyppi]

@surgeyX Thanks man, your link is great link to that part of the video when I want to hear that keyboard and bass solo coming soon after your part :D I'm a keyboardist myself, but I am far away from that great than Jordan Rudess :D

[joepetrelli10]

growing a little tired to the ancient "Myung did the lyrics" joke. Myung doesn't need to use his voice to project his emotions and dedication to his music. he's always seemed like a soft spoken modest man to me who loves to play and share his music and in my opinion, that's the best way to be. go Myung, keep showing us up in any of our bass enterprises XD

[BlastemHigh]

what the hell is this? Didn't Lars Ulrich join this band? where the hell is he then?

[Darkfirelover]

@BlastemHigh Lars Ulrich needs a lot more skills to be in Dream Theater

That's why he's in Metallica

[BlastemHigh]

@Darkfirelover Thank goodness it's not true then. Someone must've posted wrong info. It just wouldn't make any sense for Lars Ulrich to leave a mega band like Metallica for what? this cruddy band? No offense but seriously, this band doesn't compare to the greatness of Metallica. I'm so glad it was only a false rumour.

[Darkfirelover]

@BlastemHigh Metallica is a great band but in my opinion, Dream Theater is way better than Metallica in their music and talent. No offense.

[dldldl4576]

@Darkfirelover so true

[bigmotta1]

u.ú

[ianisc00lio]

lyrics by Myung

[mintybartlam]

Impressive technical exercise certainly. Shit piece of music though.

[MsPilotwings]

Omg i love these ppl lmao they are really good

[sebita4]

Yo dawg i heard you liked bass solos..

[Webofscience]

Myung's bass literally sounds like it's roaring in this video.

[gunsandbeyond]

this video is a shet!!!! mother fuckers

[DamnThisThing33]

going to hospital becouse of this...

[MlKEPORNTOY]

We always wanted to call this song "Because We Can."

[bangNL94]

@MlKEPORNTOY I see what you did there.

[StrangeNipples]

@MlKEPORNTOY holy shit, i am seeing you everywhere on DT vids. Nice name btw, i lol'd

[zwiemenoe]

@MlKEPORNTOY omg idiots THIS IS NOT THE REAL MIKE

[TheUnforgivent]

@zwiemenoe ORLY, THANKS CAPTAIN OBVIOUS

[zwiemenoe]

@TheUnforgivent Lol everyone thinks he is because he has fckn 79 thumbs up

[moviemaster8510]

0:00ne last time!

[jimmycrackcorn1981]

john petrucci kinda looks like Rex from Pantera

[shane69999]

what a load of shit

[JayMark2049]

@shane69999 You may not like it but it's actually a masterpeice of hamony, complexity and synchronism.

[NicolBolas7]

@shane69999

Please back listening to ACDC or other useless band

[tokorev747777]

What is with Asians being Godly on Guitars? XD Herman Li. John Myung. They rock! haha

[meryuin]

@tokorev747777 bass actually

[tokorev747777]

@meryuin Its still a guitar dude. Trust me im a bass player myself

[jhbonarius]

amazing

[jhbonarius]

amazing

[css970]

Man the guitars are so good!!!!

The harmony is so sick!

[JayMark2049]

@css970 Yep! Harmony is quite sick but there is only one guitar.

[irwin3036able]

I used to think Avenged Sevenfold's Bat Country was the hardest song on drums... Till I found Dream Theater!! ;)

[XenoJack0]

Ahhh 240p... we meet again....

[MrNesk04]

The attack of the filming watermelon.

Original Soundtrack: Dream Theater - The Dance of Eternity

[manowar168]

everythime i look at DT's songs in youtube I say to myself ''wow cant wait to see Portnoy on their next gig'' ant then I remember.. Mangini is one of the best in the world i like him but Portnoy is Portnoy..

[Doveslayer665]

A bass solo within a bass solo? BASSCEPTION

[henrithefreak47]

I think its all 4/4 right?

[SyntheticDramaMusic]

The ragtime part is, is, is, there isn't a word to describe it...

[MlKEPORNTOY]

Who's that little Chinese girl on bass?

[ChuckNorris134]

@MlKEPORNTOY I lold at your name.

[JayMark2049]

@MlKEPORNTOY Fuck off you racist ignorant fuck! His name is John Myung, he is of Korean decendence (born in the USA) and is also considered to be one of the greatest bassist of all time (even THE best for a lot of people). Just look at 2:54 to 3:08. That's pure talent and speed. Nuff said!

[barolol]

@MlKEPORNTOY he is GOD

[Voidix8000]

2:19 Fornicação

[Horfenico]

really wish they cut all the weird camera shit in this DVD

[nag020423]

just, EPIC!

[ki113r1234]

regular time singnatures were just to mainstream for them....

[hugslyh]

@ki113r1234 they had to use 105 to be cool and have 13 8 in it... i struggle with 2

[ZapiI4life]

I have this dvd home!!! :D

[thenorthlifegamer]

i have started to listen to dream theater now and i wonder,who is john myung?

[OmegaBassArg]

@thenorthlifegamer John Myung is the bassist

[jengibritalinda]

tocan chingonsisimo no mamen! xD

[Sparda91]

Try clapping your hands in rhythm to this.

[BunnyInAGasMask]

@Sparda91 It's possible if you have a copy of the tab next to you and can see all the mental time signature changes :P

[skylord081]

@Sparda91 with 128 time signature changes in 6 minutes? lol

[cuervodigital]

DT the best band of the universe!!

[GavinJohnSlee92]

I have got an idea for a T-shirt for my 2011 concert in vancouver.

Front: I Have Found God

back: His Name Is John Myung.

[gixmar]

check the best new band WORK OF ART THE GREAT FALL

[justaspectator01]

John Myung is Cyborg, he was programmed to play bass and probably the reason why he doesn't speak. LOL

[suonandoconlarpa]

JR king

[abraley94]

i think Myung is doing a bass solo in that bass solo

[maiabh]

@abraley94 INCEPTION! MOTHER OF GOD!

[Dufflad08]

@abraley94 Bassception... O.o

[bornheim1974]

69 idiots don`t like this,lol

[PlataniumIdiot]

jordan wit da haaaair

[dxbfreemind]

this concert change my concept of music...literally

[DTPetrucci123490th]

@dxbfreemind ME TOOOOO! i WAS SO BLOWN AWAY WHEN i FIRST BOUGHT THIS DVD.

[Metallideth1993]

How is this even fucking possible to play so well?!

[clyde8her]

@Metallideth1993 It really is amazing isn't it?......Any time I listen to this I sit with my mouth open in awe....

[AttemtpD]

Any DT fans should check out Black Atom Reign! Very Good Heavy Technical Progressive and Varietal Music! SUBSCRIBE TO THEIR CHANNEL!

[MrGuitarProff]

My top band!

[851852093114208513]

5:41 - Was that a little Rush thrown in there? An homage perhaps? Sounded kind of "Freewill"-ish.

[JacksonPS6]

@851852093114208513 I can't really hear it. Besides if Dream Theater want to pay homage to Rush they just cover a whole bloody Rush album!

[851852093114208513]

@JacksonPS6 Well, I mean, the beginning part of that riff  is EXACTLY the same as the riff in Freewill...

[JacksonPS6]

@851852093114208513 I've just been comparing to Freewill and I really don't think they are that similar. Sorry!

[xSniperDelux3x]

 lol jordan with long hair

[metabog]

This song is mindblowing. I hope they have something like this on the new album.

[haxbryant]

@metabog well they got kinda one... not at all but a good time signatures changes song in lost not forgotten

[eduardinhodudus]

caramba nessa época jordan ainda era cabeludorsrsrsrsrsrs!!!

[TrueRattlehead]

1:31-2:20 amazing!!!!

kinda remindes me of mario.

[Dimebag62430]

@TrueRattlehead reminds me some riff from children of bodom

[TrueRattlehead]

@Dimebag62430 your right. It sounds all mysterious and magical.

[cranberrysauce7]

@Dimebag62430 don't you mean a children of bodom riff reminds you of dream theater??? lol

[Dimebag62430]

@cranberrysauce7 children of bodom was inspired by a DT riff lol

[Lightningspiner]

@TrueRattlehead noticed Petrucci's look ? "Yeah, this Riff is evil"

[greghmn]

@JDnCoke1992 it's actually like 104.

[TriviumJosh]

I swear Dream Theater are the only band to use more time signatures than 4/4

[greghmn]

Respond to this video... there are plenty of others too, you just have to look for them. pink floyd, tool, rush, and many others.

[Netravick]

@TriviumJosh they are to time signatures as Steven hawking is to the theory of relativity.

[marHAVIK]

Damn, Dream Theater is really getting popular!!!!! All their videos used to have like 100,000 views, now most of them have over 1,000,000.

[MrMusicman456]

2:53 Sweep Bass!

[Rockerboy3872]

Seeing them in October, and if they don't play this, I will be VERY VERY disappointed...

[XzanderS1]

@Rockerboy3872 Тhey probably won't... the tracklist for the 2011 tour is crap...

[einarabelc5]

really listening to this requires the same amount of concentration as reading a good book. Am I glad I retook reading.

[bluegender2005]

Rudess with long hair, lol... i bearly recognized him

[diakae]

0:01 - 6:03 best part :O

[Thebubbleguy123]

i hate 68 person now

[Filenzelot]

How do you headbang this? D:

[ErikJonssonMusic]

can someone inform me what sounds Rudess is using from 1:52 to the end of the ragtime solo?

[parisraver14]

The only people who can get Ragtime/Bluesy Style Music into the middle of a heavy metal bridge! I LOVE YOU DREAM THEATRE!!!

[ZachValkyrie]

@parisraver14 If you really loved Dream Theat(er) you would have spelled their fucking name properly!!!

[Fuckaue]

Listening to this... Now I know.... Members of DT have never used LSD xD

[MurderPlague]

that fuckin saloon piano solo is the shit!!

[Voitcu]

i wont argue that this song is a monster, but before all the Dream Theatre fanboys say they are the best prog band ever, they need to remember it takes more than just one song to compete with Symphony X and Spiral Architect for prog mastery.

[Padge314]

@Voitcu Love both of those bands, but in the end it comes down to opinion.

[Holunderbluetensirup]

@Voitcu The new Symphony X album is shit and they are making power, not progressive metal

[ErikJonssonMusic]

@Voitcu Symphony X are more power metal than prog, get down your facts. I am a HUGE Symphony X fan, but they're more power metal than anything, a TAD prog, but playing a single augmented scale doesn't prove much. Besides, DT are the creators of prog metal.

[YngwieAteMe]

@ErikJonssonMusic

name one power metal band that has ever played in a 25/16 time signature and constantly writes songs past the length of 6 minutes.

[ErikJonssonMusic]

@YngwieAteMe As I said, a little bit prog, but it can't be defined as prog metal. And your justification that writing songs past 6 minutes is just absurd, that means Dragonforce is prog? And time signatures doesn't prove much to be honest. I'd say that the chord progressions are MUCH more important to be defined as prog. Symphony X doesn't qualify as prog metal.

[YngwieAteMe]

@ErikJonssonMusic

elements of progressive metal and progressive music in general:

longer songs

time signature changes

more complex use of instruments and more instruments

stronger and more advanced vocals

more intellectual lyrics

is symphony x missing any of these? no, they aren't. first i get an idiot telling me that dream theater hasn't done anything new and isn't progressive and then i get you telling me that symphony x leans more towards power metal.

[ErikJonssonMusic]

@YngwieAteMe Dragonforce almost include every "element" you're asserting. Does it make them prog, no. What Petrucci have said in an interview, don't quote me on this 'cause it's badly paraphrased, is that progressive music doesn't have any limits, no boundaries. Hence, songs can shift from different genres, multiple time signatures/polyrhythms, perplexed chord progressions, "intricate" lyrics, so forth. This is my justification that Symphony X isn't prog, it doesn't have a large variety, 6 char

[YngwieAteMe]

@ErikJonssonMusic

dragonforce have longer songs, it ends there. their use of instruments is very simple, their vocalist hardly has any range or anything special about him, they hardly ever play outside of 4/4 if they ever have, and their lyrics are obviously far from intelligent. only one prog element there, try again. symphony x, to describe them in the most specific way possible, is neo-classical progressive power metal. plenty of elements and genres there. they are prog metal, the end.

[chuchaka]

@Voitcu your right. dream theater have ten albums (soon to be eleven) worth of songs to prove theyre better than those other guys

[Mertketenci]

68 fucks are fans of glam

[joshuaayush]

I think john myung can fuck 10 girls at a time just using his fingers.

[palagosc]

jajajajajajajajajaja

[MrDuckFuk]

Watch this when you're stoned. Crazy Trip.

[ChrisHaspeck]

it's amazing how great "studied" musicians can really be !!!

and imagine , they all dropped out of music college !!! hahaaha

[menschmaschine5]

@ChrisHaspeck They dropped out because they formed this band. That doesn't means they didn't study or don't know the technical stuff. You pretty much have to in order to be a good musician, and anyone who tells you otherwise is just trying to justify their lack of effort.

[BenitutuORstfu]

I heard someone tried to play the bass solo to this song, 20 notes in he was rushed to the hospital to amputate his hand due to the extreme fractures and breaks.

[aron08hero]

hardest song!

[ErikJonssonMusic]

WARNING, THIS VIDEO MAY CAUSE SEIZURES!

[RandyRhoadsIsAwesome]

@ErikJonssonMusic the sheet music itself would cause a seizure lol

[GaboMyung]

@ErikJonssonMusic  i think the correct is:

DANGER, THIS VIDEO WILL CAUSE SEIZURES!!!

[vagosxx]

Fucking amazing!!!!!



[Qamafeo]

1:33 Dream Theater face

[Metalfarupyourass]

Dear John Myung,

Holy shit

[MrMusicman456]

Jordan looks like Dio in this video!

[metalkid9]

@MrMusicman456 That and Marty Friedman. xD

[WpA09]

2:54 is the best part according to me :)

[Cradle2ACasket]

this just showcases what AMAZING MUSICIANS they are!!!! AMAZING!!! 

[flicfan416]

Rush 2.0. Guitarists only think of Petrucci, Drummers dream of Portnoy, bassists drool over John Myung, and pianists (like myself) contemplate suicide after watching Jordan Rudess bust through that solo like Art Tatum. I'm surprised they didn't explode after hiring Mike Mangini

[gnryeah]

Lyrics: John Myung.

[chrisgreece21]

@gnryeah xD

[bezowashere]

are they musicians  ? or engineers ?

incredible music indeed.

[godzillafireman]

You can't dance to this...but it does take an eternity to learn how to play correctly

[dododododododdododng]

@godzillafireman Learning the song itself is a dance of eternity :D

[Peartnoy518]

Its a wonder how they all remember this... and play it in sync.

[jonadrian619]

It's unfair to use Mike Mangini's DT debut as an excuse to downgrade Portnoy and consider him as inferior. I know Mangini is just as, or even better than Portnoy, but MP was part of the legendary band's conception. He performed the drum tracks of hundreds of DT songs over 25 years, including the polyrhythms of The Dance of Eternity :)

Chris Collins, Charlie Dominici, Kevin Moore, Derek Sherinian, and now Mike Portnoy. Former DT members, kick-ass musicians who'll forever be part of the legend.
