At 2:05 ladies and gentlemen we see a true legend in music, Ted Greene. Everytime I see him or hear his name in a new context, I have to write something about him. Ted Greene sadly died in 2005. He was a fantastic guitarist, and teacher with a knowledge so vast its hard to imagine. He wrote some amazing books, as Chord Chemistry and two others about chord progressions. His partner Barbara have a youtube channel, TedGreeneArchives. See it, and be amazed and inspired by Ted. Best, Sandemose
sooo...let me get this straight: the so called inspirational albums are those that the riffs were stolen from and remade so they sound as an inspiration? And they are boasting about this? In my book, it amounts to nothing else but riPPing off others and claiming it their own shit...That's why I don't listen to these jerks anymore, period...no matter how good they are on their instruments. But so are others - and they are originals. Thanks but no, thanks....
@micanut48 These guys are gifted at what they do, and all you do is insult them for it. Your "originals" I doubt even write their own music. Your reason for not listening to them, is not even a reason. Don't shoot your mouth off, keep it to yourself.
@micanut48 What defines "ripping off"? Same chord progressions, melodies, dynamics? Perhaps you should wake up. We live in a society where ripping off old songs is the norm. Mainstream music is a fine example of this. These guys are actually UNIQUE at what they do. Their music is their passion.
@micanut48 Another thing, those albums sound NOTHING like Dream Theater. Seriously, I dare you to give me one example where they blatantly rip off fucking Soundgarden. It's called an INFLUENCE. Holy shit! Dream Theater rips off Alice in Chains! Seriously, go fuck yourself.
@Daxt0r I suggest that you don't put words in my mouth. I said that they steal material from other bands. Totaly based on the STATEMENST BY BOTH PORTNOY AND PETRUCC where they first openly said it in interview with Guitar Magazine. Later, they retrackted such statement, saying that they ONLY GET INSPIRED BY OTHER BANDS. I've read it myself. NEVER SAID that they stole shit from AIC or Soundgarden. That would be stupid because there's nothing to steal in those particular instances. Please, use IQ!
@Daxt0r apologies for some badly written words. Done in a hurry. And....I don't need to fuck myself. Got a women for that. And gorgeous one, for that matter.
@micanut48 Exactly, by "fuel for the album", they were referring to the fact that those bands INFLUENCED what they wrote. There is no comparison to anything Dream Theater did, and those other albums.
Cry more useless piece of shit..DT stole riffs?! hahahahaha dont make me laugh dude..tell me why DT would stole riffs..when they do waaaaaaaaaaay better? You are just a pathetic looser who doesnt have anything better to do then log on in the internet and post stupid comments..get a girlfriend instead =)
@JohnPetrucci7 Please read my reply to Daxt0r and pull your hand out of toilet because you're having lots of wet dreams. I don't need a girlfriend. Have a women who's hotter that most Hollywood plastic chicks, so no problem there... BTW, did you know that Van Halen were known for going to nightclubs and stealing riffs from unknown bands, only to make them hits? It's a known practice in music biz. Play, listen, learn, and then we can talk in civilized manner. Until then, drop dead...
Isn't it just so strange how NONE of these awesome bands give a rat's ass who's better than who. They ALL pretty much respect one another for what each one brings.
Hmmm, that must mean it doesn't matter who is better because music's not football or chinese food! LoL
i KNEW that dream theater liked / respected Tool, but I never had the proof to back it up whenever stupid people argue over who is better... And there it is; the bands are equally good and they just respect each other and even listen to each other.
@harmony0404 Kinda funny, just had a big arguement with this bimbo on FB about who's better, DT or JLS... for some reason that I couldn't understand she thought JLS were better. What are people teaching kids these days? DT all the way!
To the Jordan-Mobile! That would be just plain epic to hang-out out at beartracks. Just be the 10th or 11th dreamtheater member that hangs out and eats their chips to keep that second ass under control.
seriously. these guys are so down to earth i bet, these are like people you hang with on a saturday night. portnoy, petrucci, myung and rudess are gods.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
