Dream Theater - the making of Train of thought

[jetydosa1]

I love seeing these two creating amazing music together. That's a musical partnership that's developed over years and years. As good a drummer that Mangini is, he'll never have that same luxury that Petrucci had with Portnoy

[airbus787dreamliner]

John petrucci with a Les Paul guitar???????? woow

[schnittteisen]

why is there an all-seeing eye. i hope they are no satan worshippers and can spend eternity with Lord Yeshua

[NosferatuOfWorms]

@schnittteisen Lord who-da-eff?

[GuitarAndWow]

''S.O.C that stands for Suck Our Cocks'' TROLOLOLO

[TheUndervenice]

WTF!? Petrucci isn't using a Music Man in 2003?!??!?!

[Polyrthyawhut]

@TheUndervenice That's definitely a music man that he's playing...

[Vazoras]

heeeey JP plays an LP PRS wtf!! :D

[MlKEPORNTOY]

Train Of Twat

[DutyPauls]

@MlKEPORNTOY dude your on every vid that has anything to do with dt... you need to chill hahah get a girlfriend or something

[MrMu5iQ]

best album ever

[Scracar]

Ohhh they're fuckin'.... they didn't spend enough time on it

[Linkan1980]

Man I love this band!!!

[Sim2428]

WTF 3 weeks! They didn't spend enough time on this!

[dudu0607]

I think Petrucci's using a Mark Tremonti PRS in the end of the vid.

[AlexZamora1234]

@dudu0607 At first i thought it was a Les Paul, i was like "ohhmygod!" but then i saw the headstock and knew it was probably a PRS.

[raylgonzo]

I just love the process of them making music. JP figuring out the beginning to Honor Thy Father and MP figuring out how to play the drums to the riff. Just amazing for the type of music they make.

[beanriffs]

i love this!!!! but the quality isn't very good

[reptarium]

it's amazing to see how Honor thy Father born... :)

[edoDT]

Johnpetrucci with a Les Paul? ._.

[CBOrion21]

@edoDT He had tunings all over the place on this album, the LP made it easy to quickly tune to anything without having 8 guitars on standby.

[rdframe1]

6:43 this is a monument momumental ocasion :s

[goodygoody23]

Probably my favorite DT album...well definitely in my top 3

[TheMan750]

@goodygoody23 same here #2 or 3 for me

[goodygoody23]

@TheMan750 It's hard to beat Scenes From A Memory, that's their best IMO

[TheMan750]

@goodygoody23 true, but mines is octavarium, it's the first one i brought and the title track is insane

[TheMetallicaGods]

1:55 effortless...literally

[Socioistic]

After about five minutes of him drumming, I noticed mike wasn't filming.

Also, I love how bands write music to please their fans, but they just fucking hate the fans, and talk about how them like shit.

[Zjoewagduh]

omfg john petrucci plays PRS here ?!

6:20

[sonyskymaster]

@Zjoewagduh yeah i noticed that to interesting huh ??

[AdamFague]

WTF PETRUCCI ON A PRS?

[Bakazuraz]

It only took them three weeks? THREE WEEK?! This album has some amazing tracks on it. Endless Sacrifice and Stream of Consciousness are some of my all time favorite DT songs and they did it in three weeks. Amazing.

[ions1324]

@Bakazuraz i agree 10000000000%

[skifarterufa]

Did anyone notice that there is not James Labrie in this video?

[maxulyses]

@skifarterufa i wonder why would that be? Hmm. hahahaha

[K17ten]

@skifarterufa So who's voice was on 7:25 ?

[Negrura911]

@K17ten Kevin James LaBrie...

[Negrura911]

@skifarterufa He is recording or playing basketball.

[Horfenico]

@skifarterufa he's recording

[Danwell100]

[kostasssism]

at 6:21 he is playing a prs sc for sure

[kostasssism]

is this a prs SC?

[dragonsagoth666]

@kostasssism

Nope. JP uses Music Man guitars.

[kostasssism]

@dragonsagoth666 check the video carefully and you will notice a prs sc

[firedrake0]

this album is really strong...

[529376100]

one of the best albums...

[aga16]

:O is JP using a Les Paul (or similar) at 6:20 ?? or is it just my imagination?

[ShellyOFG]

@aga16 I thought that - could be a PRS also !

[Mohamed636]

hahaha "yea yea, thas the shit!"

amazing how these guys write. i wish i could watch them all the day

[MsPetar1995]

Where is LaBrie ???

[iTzDreamTheater]

@MsPetar1995 He was recording the video.

[Scooterfruit]

@MsPetar1995 You can see him next to Jordan at 1:46

[curziorufo]

the best album according to me

[jambub]

what a fucking good album!!! DAMN!!!!!!

[MetallicaMadMan666]

it amazes me that they went in to the studio with nothing then 3 weeks later they've finished writing a masterpiece

[heckelmenot]

@MetallicaMadMan666 Yeah, 7 masterpieces to be exact. Amazing

[Scalismas656]

now wait a minute..Jordan Rudess with short dark hair?

[bluegender2005]

@Scalismas656 Not short dark hair... ACTUAL hair!

[swimmerforlife789]

SOC....Streams of...!!!!!!

[Cambrand]

The making of the least good DT-album imo :I

[morochio]

"thats the shit, do it like that" xD jajaja mighty

[MrKiller92]

[DownDotFall]

@MrKiller92 quite sure its a gibson

[DavemechL1011]

@MrKiller92

PRS Tremonti

[McDiddy99]

Jordan has hair ^^

[zonic26]

Mike made up a great joke, S.O.C. stands for Suck Our Cocks, but what it really stands for is Stream Of Consciousness.

[ditoprabowo]

@zonic26 or is it? we'll never know. it's an instrumental song.. there's no lyrics.. :D

[zonic26]

@ditoprabowo Stream Of Consiousness is an instrumental song and yes it does have no lyrics

[jasonbecklegend]

The Best Album of the Best Band Ever!!!!

[666guitarfreak]

is petrucci actually using a les paul?O.o

[muncham]

@666guitarfreak looks more like a PRS Single Cut

[deathscythekim729]

Now that symbolizes the connection and chemistry of DT..in 3 weeks..of such epic progressive metal..take that kiddos!

[deathscythekim729]

JAMES IS HOLDING THE CAM

[skifarterufa]

Which song is at 2:35?

[1dednimnepo]

@skifarterufa Honor Thy Father... pure metal!

[skifarterufa]

@1dednimnepo Thank you man, I just listened to it and it's fucking badass...

[ZepsHeavensStairway]

@skifarterufa

Honory Thy Father

[ZepsHeavensStairway]

*Honor. sorry.

[TheMan750]

@skifarterufa Honor thy father, track 4

[relonation]

Suck Our Cocks is my favorite track on the album!

[mrfrostynova]

ToT and MP2 are my personal faves and apparently both done under such a tight time frame, makes you wonder how they can possibly do all they do in just a few weeks!

[jurberto]

1 dislike: Synyster Gates

[jhop5150]

Mike Portnoy has a Stormtroopers Of Death shirt on!

[Rickles]

Petrucci on a les paul? I've never seen anything besides the Ibanes or musicman. Just interesting. Good to see that he mixes it up a bit at least.

[IllusionaryMind8]

@Rickles In his very early days he used Bc.Rich.

check this out, Dream Teater as Majesty; /watch?v=4GpBuTWsta4

[TheFahed1]

@zonic26 it stands for, Black Clouds and Silver Linings.

[kubarally2]

is this a part of an official making of movie?

[DT2BLZ]

i wish i lived in one of those departmentes next door...

[hereg2007]

We love you Zio Mike...

[bassguitarpro88]

[LtHolt]

@bassguitarpro88 Me too. Its a shame to hear that. He was great

[ArthurTheGreat1000]

OMG Rudess have HAAAIIIRRRR!!!! :D

[ronnawrie]

HELL YEA! A PRS TREMONTI!

[InfinityDz]

When I see this I think : "GOD BLESS GUITAR-PRO"

and they should write all their albums in 3 weeks xD (obviously it's my favourite)

I'm sad they didn't show a part of This Dying Soul

[icemanistheword]

hahaahh portnoy : yeah that's the shit! 4:20

[DTnorwayDT]

06:30 John is playing a prs les paul type gitar... wtf?

[HDHaloReach]

Holy fuck...three weeks thats nothing

[Hydra152]

[UnforgivingCritic]

it took 'em 3 weeks to create their 2nd best ever album. (1st, SDOIT)

[ExileFreedom]

@UnforgivingCritic nah dude BCASL is def the best

[zonic26]

@ExileFreedom What does BCASL stand for?

[Gatzill123]

[FunkMasterGodOfRock2]

Mike thought "Ok i've immitated Jordan, shall I go on? Nah, i'll go back to slappin' my chest! : )"

Love em.

[ibnzjemjr]

[FearlessSpinner]

@ibnzjemjr PRS Singlecut

[polvergara]

@FearlessSpinner PRS Tremonti I believe, Its a gift from Mark Tremonti

[TimmOfficial]

yeah thats the shit! xD amazing

[BCRichWarlock7]

Honor Thy Father..........what a fucking masterpeice

[mindstormsabrewin]

I LOVE seeing a great piece of music at it's genesis. Seeing masters work out the elements of a composition is always a treat.

[sebastal]

From "Suck Our Cocks" to "Stream Of Conciousness"...talk about a good save

[UnforgivingCritic]

@sebastal lol, xDDDDDDD

SOC is "Suck Our Cocks" alright.. :D

[sebastal]

I really believe this is their best album...Metropolis (to me) crumbles in front of this masterpiece

[Dunford00]

there is a second video like this for the recording of train of thought, released at the same time.. how did it get lost? where is it?????????

anyone know?

[OperantChamber]

Check Dailymotion.

[irud]

lol 2:35 :D making of honor thy father beginning :D epic

[alexberdea]

[Aensgard]

petrucci's musicman guitar sounds orgasmic! xD even though the sound quality is poor...

[K1DUDE911]

what song is at 6:20?

[Fabio2k9]

@K1DUDE911 stream of consciousness

[firedrake0]

Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier RoadKing Series 1 FTW!

[YtseJam16]

Where's this video from?

[SpacePirate99]

Mike's drumkit is FUCKING HUGE!

[marcellokyoto]

6:20 ??? Les Paul? PRS?

[vieri031]

PRS

[K1DUDE911]

@vieri031 do you know what PRS?

[vieri031]

Actually not really, no

[44Bigs]

JP looks so much cooler with short hair

[Fettus999]

I love how they care equally about all the instruments and parts! Working on the song, not the guitar part or the bass part. They work on it as one big thing :) Beautiful!

[DavemechL1011]

fuck! that is a PRS!

[albertmetal93]

john petrucci with a Prs ?

[CrimsonDrift16]

labrie is a good camera man..

[manolisworld]

hahaah thats so true!!!

[Z4nk0]

jajajajajajajajajajajaja!!!!!!­

[Horfenico]

lmfao

"The Song is labelled SOC which stands for Suck Our Cocks."

lmfao

DT owns

[MadBassist2]

3 weeks for their best(opinion) album?

im a failure as a musician haha

[Soulmag]

cheer up, you're not alone :P

[jmtast]

"Yeah, that's the shit! Do it like that!"

hahaha Love DT!

[master22drumfool]

7:00 - 7:03 Classic

[ownregent]

fuck...3 weeks, lol wow, my band, we take that long to get through one song lol

[pdpidd]

I was Wondering where's James?? but then I realized that someone gad to hold the camera XD and it becomes pretty obvious that he his the camera guy, cause you can hear him at 7.25 m xD

[drunkhas]

Yet like in the middle of the video the camera is moving but you can see all five member in front of the camera, but my guess is that it probably was JR's hidden third hand, you can see it too in the making of Systematic Chaos :)

[jmiester25]

unlike alot of bands, they manage not to get in fights when writing their music. thats wat makes them better

[drunkhas]

You should see them then in the making of Falling Into Infinity or Six Degrees, thay wanna kill each other.

[jmiester25]

yeah dude. i heard Mike was so upset at one point during Infinity that he was considering leaving the band. fortunately he didnt. it'd be impossible to replace him

[drunkhas]

Actually, that was on the tour and not the making of the album hehe, he decided he weill leave after the tour so that he would honor the remaining tour dates, but at some point before the end of the tour the band and new and current manager talk him into staying in the band.

And yes i agree with you, he will be impossible to replace.

[albertmetal93]

Where can I find that videos?

[drunkhas]

dunno, the six degrees vidoe is gone from here, and the infinity tour you can read that excerpt in the website of their book "Lifting Shadows"

[ultimateguitar553]

Did Mike Portnoy ever say which albums they had in their inspiration corner during recording???

[00Dakka]

LOOK AT DEM MESAS

[Kotowboy]

What guitar is that at 3:25 ? Looks like a PRS.

[pinkfloydfan951753]

probly john's custom ernie ball musicman

[dahudge14]

S.O.C., which means "suck our cocks"! hahaha, good one Mike! (Charge theme) hahaha, that's awesome.

[kindadrummerguy]

"yeah yeah yeah! that's the shit!" hahahaha :)) love that line :))

[peavyt15]

PRS Tremonti @ 6:22 ???

[JRBain7]

Yes. It was a gift from Tremonti, I think.

[iluvsystemofadown]

wow 2;35 sounds like something a system of a down intro would have O_O!

[Shiruyumi]

Wow.. Just wow..

[iluvsystemofadown]

What "wow"?

[gredangeo]

Dude, don't do that! I got burned when on the "These walls" video. I said that the intro sounded something that KoRn would do. Which I still think it does. The reason is because it's a 7 string drop A. combine a riff that's in their style, and you're fucked! I can't believe no one noticed, I thought it was blatantly obvious.

[sixstringking123]

I believe he uses a baritone on that song, but I could be wrong. I want one so bad.

[Sydanyo]

There's no baritones on Train of Thought.

[Azloah]

3 weeks, jesus christ

[silencegtr05]

4:19 "yeah! yeah! thats the shit!" lmao

[Ouch2x4]

Yea I loled

[sheahan99]
