  • I didnt know that vin disel could play the guitar like that, neither i did know he had hair...

  • @pekisi vin disel can't play guitar like this. i don't know what you're talking about.

  • I use to dream about this guitar. It always advertised in guitar mag with dmarzio pick ups.

  • wait a second! IT'S MAN! GOD DAMNIT...im sorry xD

  • Woman...Drums...Woman...Drums.­..i'm fucked confused...

  • Wow, I sometimes forget about the good old days when Portnoy wasn't such a douchebag.

  • JPM100

    look at wikipedia

  • what model is that guitar?

  • not perfectly executed, but still wow, incredibly performed. he was and still is a genius. It's one thing to be able to physically play this solo, it's a whole other thing to be able to create and write a solo like this.

  • Young John Petrucci looks like young Dave Grohl

  • O_O damn.....

  • Oh I do not thing to John uses D'addario strings this time. D'addario= crap.....

  • On some Camera Spots he remembers me of Steve Lukather LOL

  • can any one post the whole concert ? thanx

  • jerry seinfeld.

  • @iamheadbanger Now that you say it... (!!)

  • Eargasm

  • before the epic beard..

  • such an incredible player

  • HAHAHAHA. Portnoy in spandex :D

  • That is the best guitar of Petrucci

  • #1 in the solo hall of fame!

  • I think John petrucci should've kept this ibanez, and his way of playing, i think he was WAY cooler when he used the ibanez, then with the ernie ball guitars, evendow hes still an awesome player !

  • @manuelonice when he reached Ernie Ball guitars he kinda changed his style , sound became more "singful" and more agressive if needed , and only bad thing is , that he shredds a lot more than he used to ...

  • @Macckos yhaa, his style changed alot ! and yes he shred much more know, and not the way he used to, which for me had lot more feeling in it ! but hes still on my fav. guitarrist list :b

  • @manuelonice i know , this guy inspires me , with shredding , and without . I cant wait to get new album "A Dramatic Turn Of Events" . He is above any guitarist on my list , kinda higher than Vai , Satriani :-)

  • THAT SOLO IS SO FUCKIN WIIIILD

  • Am I the only one who just kind of assumed that he was born with a beard? This video confuses me...

  • what live recording is this from? :)

  • @RobinsDogOfficial It's from "Live in Tokyo". :)

  • iill tell the truth :

    1-GUTHRIE GOVAN

    2- all the others

  • 1- Yngwie Malmsteen

    2-Joe Satriani

    3- Jonh Petrucci

    4-Paul Gilbert

    5-Steve Vai

    6- Jason Becker

  • @TheUniversomerodea seriously take malmsteen off he is nowhere near as vast as those other players

  • @MrGamerBazer ur crazy. Its Vai that is no supposed to be on that list

  • @lordmetal2 i dunno malmsteen just seems to be all bout speed. Oh well everyones got personal taste :)

  • @TheUniversomerodea oooooooooo plzzz LOL u clearly never played guitar of ur life, or if u play ur obviously a 12 years old kid learning, but u will learn dont be affraid

  • Doesn't do anything for me at all...

  • made a mistake at :46 lol, still so much awesomeness !!!

  • James LaBrie can play Herman Li's guitar parts on his tambourine better than Herman Li can play them himself.

  • @DreamTheater2005 I'm pretty sure that asking James LaBrie to play Herman Li would insult him... Cause you know... Herman Li sucks... Just sayin...

  • @DreamTheater2005 No way,his tamubrine doesn't have a whammy bar!

  • @Videostar1another1fa That would be an epic instrument if it were possible though, a whammy bar on a tambourine

  • @DreamTheater2005 You can suck Ron Jeremy's dick better than any of the thousand women who have.

  • Wow, now there's something that I didn't know about myself. Good to know. I must be a legend. @dontstephere

  • @DreamTheater200

    ,,James LaBrie can play Herman Li's keyboard parts on his tambourine better than Herman Li can play them himself. '' Fixed

  • @DreamTheater2005 rofl! its true.

  • @DreamTheater2005 check out herman li is cool u might get a kick out of it

  • Golden Era of DT

  • The Ibanez look so much cooler than the Musicman guitars IMO.

  • @ChucklesMginty I agree. The Ibanez RG is a classic guitar. They look beast in bright colors like yellow, pink, and green too.

  • @ChucklesMginty lol :D, I have this ibanez, and i always wanted a black guitar, but now i start to love it

    after 10 years :D lol

  • @ChucklesMginty Yeah, music man guitars look boring and generic, but their quality is outstanding. IMO

  • @boxtrap21 i think musicman looks like a combination of fenter strat and ibanez rg.

  • @ChucklesMginty Yes I like this Ibanez. Sound too! more better then theMusic man its toooo shredding guitar. John Use Ibanez again!!!!

  • @ChucklesMginty Petrucci's MusicMan is the best guitar I've ever played.

  • @ChucklesMginty yup, but it's not all about the look :p

  • @ChucklesMginty But, I think Musicman has a much better tone. That's a bitch, since my tone preference for basses in Ibanez!

  • what the F..JP has hair growing from his chest and up to his head O.o

  • i love that guitar

  • Slash have 3 accounts.

  • Herman Li has nothing to do with dream theater. He is a good guitarist, they play different genres of music. grow up.

  • @fru1tbooter14

    Herman Li knows how to use a computer, vut he cannot play near as good as their recordings sound :/

  • @ThaRetard Apparently you haven't seen them live recently. He does a wonderful job performing live. I do think that they try way too hard to record crazy stuff in the studio, but given what he has to try and recreate, I think he does a great job at it.

  • Perfect Solo :D

  • Rule 34... No exceptions. Not even guitars.

  • Comment removed

  • he looks like marty friedman :D

  • Easily one of my all time favorite solos

  • It hurts my wrist just to watch him do that..

    btw just started learning this solo today, fucking hurts after a few plays

  • I'm under a glass of impossibilty to be like petrucci

  • Whatever the hell he is doing at 0.49, how does he do it?

    Cheers

  • @bringbackoldlab Its called a "flutter". just type whammy bar flutter on youtube or google.

  • @bringbackoldlab He slides his hand off of the end of his whammy bar, while really gently pushing it down. That way it bounces back when his hand comes off it, and creates a springy sound. It sounds really cool when you're holding notes like Petrucci does here. I'm not sure if it's called anything, though.

  • @pmanderson I'm pretty sure its called a flutter. :D Pretty sweet. It adds a lot of flavor to your soloing if you do it right.

  • Man why would Kevin Moore leave?

  • @Musselerran because he can eat Rudess's ass and balls

  • @PwnYouAtSoccer Rudess has no soul.

  • @Musselerran Most Wizards don't.

  • @TheWho852 Nor Zombies. Why even bother? I Fucking hate post Moore DT.

  • He looks like Dave Grohl in this era but, well one who can actually shred his ass off

  • Probably the most impressive JP solo AFA sheer technique, and certainly a hodgepodge of influences throughout - I hear Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Steve Morse, Allan Holdsworth, Al Di Meola, Michael Schenker, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Yngwie Malmsteen. Yet despite this, it never sounds derivative - the end result sounds like John Petrucci and nobody else. Quite an achievement. Emotionwise, there are better choices, like The Count of Tuscany or The Spirit Carries On, but this is still great!

  • Who is The Guy!!!??? WHO IS THE GUUUUY OF THE RED "1"!

  • well . i can only say one thing . even chuck norris couldnt play this solo .

  • he kind of looks like dave grohl there haha

    only with infinitely more skill!

  • Who's comin with me to go kill that 1 disliking on john petrucci motherfucker?

  • @StormBlitzM37AL Oh noes! someone disliked! someone out there has an opinion different to yours! oh lord what ever will we do?

  • Who the hell missed the Like-button?

  • @Faecpalm You.

  • @ChrisakacIoud r mom.

  • Duncan Mccloud on guitar!!!!!1

  • 0:30 .....now that is what I call shredding. He melted my face.

  • the begining reminds of Satch

  • @exploitedtryout yes i agree with the mike portnoy part cause he is a cock sucking ass hole who switches bands for a dumb ass emo gay band a7x but john petrucci probly 30000 times better then you fagget ass an he owns alll a guitar playing an he owns your moms vagina

  • Jeez, fucking 12 year olds that hate a7x is the best thing in the world, I've seen people like you actually spend hours of hours making videos telling the world about how you hate them so much, what the fuck is wrong with you people? ^^

  • @ShredableGuitar im 28 its funny how much of a dumbass you are for thinking im 12 what are you 18 ?

  • Then why do you act like you're fucking twelve? Who the hell acts so immature just because they don't like a band? I have bands that I don't like, that doesn't mean I spend time making youtube accounts named after how much I hate a band or even spending time thinking about it. You're 28? You got nothing else going on other then siting in front of youtube flaming bands? Pathetic loser.

  • @ShredableGuitar yea so what what are you gonna do nothing so just shut your mouth up little a7x fanboy go jump revs dead dick since you like them so much an worry about what your doing not what im doing but dont be talking shit till you balls drop lil 16 year old emo fag.

  • I can respect people not liking A7X, I'm totally fine with it. But just look at this idiot ...

    Oh, and your music sounds like someone is puking, great stuff bro. Let me just make a youtube account with a name that represents how much I hate them. And I'm beginning to think that you're just trolling, because this is almost unreal. If you are, you're a great troll.

  • @ShredableGuitar yea thank you isnt that nice an like i said no one is brave enough to tell me to my face so i aint planing to stop soon and do you think dream theater likes a7x cause im sure they hate them to because of what they did but i dont see you trying to call them out but who cares your 16 what are you gonna do tell your mom hahahaha so just fuck off kid an yes im one of the best trolls an i like trolling but the only people i troll about is rappers an a7x thats it .

  • And what exactly did A7X do? Portnoy is the sell-out in this case, they asked him for help and he accepted. As soon as A7X said they couldn't be a band because Portnoy was too famous and they wanted someone that started from a scratch, Portnoy wanted to rejoin DT but got rejected. Obviously it doesn't matter to you anyways, you just want to flame and troll, and you totally got me in this case.

  • @ShredableGuitar an why did you think he got rejected because his dumbass was told to not fill in for the rev but his dumb ass did it anyways

  • Yeah exactly, so blame A7X because Portnoy was acting stupid? Your logic in undeniable.

  • @ShredableGuitar yea because it was said an belived that a7x told him to leave dream theater an join a7x

  • That's not even remotely true. That's something you completely made up and even if that was the case it was all up to Portnoy himself. And really, do you think Portnoy would leave his band that he have been playing with for 25 years to join A7X just because the asked? Not likely. It was all Portnoy.

  • @ShredableGuitar it is true why would i make that up an he left because a7x tricked him by telling him that he would make twice the money for joining an that is true cause portnoy evan said it him self

  • Jeez, either you're you got really bad at trolling or you're actually twelve. Where's your facts? When did Portnoy say that? Nevermind, it's impossible to argue with someone like you.

  • @ShredableGuitar how you think i feel your fucking 16 why am i evan wasting my time on you your balls havent evan droped an mike portnoy said it in a interview when they questioned him about the tour with a7x dumb ass

  • @a7xsuks657438374 First, I'd like to point out your spelling and grammar are atrocious. It's way more difficult than it needs to be to read your comments.

    Second, if this is true, and Mike said it himself, why don't you actually provide proof, instead of just asserting your position with baseless statements? I've been very on top of the Mike Portnoy situation since he said he was leaving DT. I've seen nothing of this. If you saw it and know it is true, present your evidence.

  • @a7xsuks657438374 hey can you not just enjoy the music? no offense man.

  • @OlieGuitarFREAK im trying to but some one always has to say fuck me cause my opionion twards a7x

  • Ibanez has to rebuild picasso models and put them on sale as Jemini models .. I LOVE THAT GUITAR!

  • what is the name of this concert ???

  • @carimavida live in tokyo i think?

  • One of the best guitar solos of all time

  • Petrucci can shred without having enough distortion..and that's what shred picking accuracy is all about..When it comes to picking in my opinion, Paul Gilbert and John Petrucci are my bet..

  • @deathscythekim729 and Yngwie! Hes damn good at picking, not a big fan of him but he sure can play...

  • @deathscythekim729 just like me i think that Paul Gilbert and John Petrucci are the bests

  • @deathscythekim729 hmmmm i think roope latvala and Alexi laiho are pretty damn good pickers but john petrucci is my god! so yeah

  • @deathscythekim729 AGREE, but dont forget about Malmsteen! :b

  • between 00:47 to 00:48 "HOW COOL IS THAT??!!" take that (cough) Batio (cough)

  • Every thing about Dream Theater i define it as "exotic"..it's an intellectual kind of music, their music sounds like a billion bucks better than mainstream bullshit nowadays..something "royal" about them..it's so majestic..i don't know how to describe this awesome tunes..and John Petrucci has the most exotic Graphic finish in his JPM guitar..how cool is that?

  • Such a scatter-brained solo if you know what I mean.

  • Ah I was right. I watched the video of this solo without the backing tracks and I thought it would probably sound better if the song was being played through.

  • oohh the great DT with Kevin Moore..... :(

  • @exploitedtryout u be trollin good sir.

  • @exploitedtryout Are you high or just completely stupid?

  • @kukenbajs That's not his fault pal, the dog that night forgot to put on a condom that night while banging his mom. and the result is a shitty loser who is judging Dream theater.

  • @exploitedtryout go fuck a sheep, and tell me when you can play a single petrucci solo

  • @exploitedtryout hahahah WELL SAID BROTHER!! two thumbs up!

  • this solo should be taught at every music school on this planet

  • I'm a full on A7x fan, and i know almost every DT fan hates A7x and vice versa, but i have to say, this is one of the most awesome solos ive ever heard.

  • @dadude1234567 na, man. It's just the fact that most people are too imature to like both bands, like "they stole Mke!!" or shit like that, but both bands are good,

  • OMG his tone is soooo much better here than in that vid where he has the green guitar.

  • @nomis101uk he does need to switch back to ibanez

  • @SebinusPremier as purkka552 said, more gain or when you tap kinda flick the string harder when you let off. i hope i helped. lol.

  • @SebinusPremier more gain from your amp/pedal

  • 0:11 Ben stiller :P

  • Mike Portnoy has the biggest hair at this time ever. But he's also the sickest drummer ever.

  • He looks so young! That's crazy. When did he switch from Ibanez to Music Man?

  • i bet you the 1ST DISLIKE is HERMAN LI

  • @killguns95 Nah, it's Steve Vai, Michael Romeo and Paul Gilbert

  • is that a chick on drums!!!

  • @bengrockson No Its Mike Portnoy On The drums --.

  • i held my breath the entire 1:01 minutes

  • @farizster same.. except i died at the end!

  • WOW! amazing! sounds as if it were in a studio - no mistakes.

  • @ydekov of course...its john petrucci not some wannabe guitarist

  • @guitaralafreak

    true that. i guess I'm just used to hearing mistakes in live performances.

  • if that neck of the guitar was my dick, i would definitely cum

  • @thepeanutgod Me too

  • @thepeanutgod I just died laughing with your comment XDDD

  • @thepeanutgod that comment was kinda gay. but a good one too!

  • @thepeanutgod So what your saying is that you would like to get your penis felt up by a guy?

  • @MysticalMuffinDude i believe he is

  • @thepeanutgod That's fucked.

  • @thepeanutgod now that comment just took it way way too far, seriously

  • @thepeanutgod me too times 1.000,000

  • skinny portnoy

  • first song

  • fuckin favorite Petrucci solo

  • was this when Kevin Moore was keyboardist?

  • @relonation yes

  • @relonation yeah, it was

  • É certo que Rudess, ajudou o DT a ir ao ápice do mainstream, mas o Kevin Moore tinha mais cara de Dream Theater...

    Só questão de opinão...

    ( e opinião é igual a cabeça...)

  • HEY GUYS IM GONNA BE THE FIRST GUY TO DISLIKE THIS BECAUSE I AM BETTER THAN PETRUCCI

  • @partlyshady I understand that your blatant egotism and "out-thereness" is all part of some advertising scheme to get your name known ala the great kat. but i still find it kind of annoying. I'm not going to say you're horrible at guitar because you aren't, however your tone and recording quality is rubbish. occasionally erroneous timing such as on ADHD probably need to be remedied too, think about using a different drum software too, if you record your drums live, try drumagog drum replacer.

  • @tekkentool I completely agree with you man. That is one of the most intelligent comments I have received on youtube. I am just a young amateur, and by claiming I am better than well known guitar virtuosos I

    1. draw people to watching my videos

    2. draw a lot of criticism (which is what I want) as people aren't about to hold back their true thoughts after I insulted their favorite player haha.

    I use superior drummer drum synth, and I write all the drums in midi. What synth do you recommend?

  • @partlyshady Superior drummer is a fine piece of software but you probably aren't mastering with it properly. If you aren't already, Use Cockos reaper for recording, it's as good as pro tools but essentially free until you start selling music. Get into the habit of putting more effort into the final mixdown and equalisation of your music. you'd sound better if you Get a bass as well, they have 89 dollar basses that kick arse on rondo music dot com The SX basses are a fan favourite on talkbass
