Ok. Ill be posting a video of me playing this tune on you tube in the next two weeks. Lets see you post a video of you playing this tune. Time to put up or shut up.
Take a look at Neil's lyrics and tell me who the better musician is. And you really need to listen to rush to hear that Neil just has more emotion and feel as a drummer. I'd take him any day over Portnoy.
theres no such thing as a 12th note, just because there are 12 triplet subdivisions in a 4/4 measure doesnt make them 12th notes. 6/12 time doesn't make sense.
That's exactly what I said. It wasn't actually a question, since the answer followed the interrogative immediately. I guess I could have been more clear. Berklee time evidently uses strangely divided meter, but it's all just for show. Stated simply, 6/12 time is an unsimplified fraction. You're really talking about 2/4, which is nothing special.
yeah lol i realized i was wrong right after i posted it, but there was some lag so it didn't show up so i couldnt correct myself. just ignore my comment lol.
Spose that your opinion Starfighter 2000 but DC and MP have completely different drumming styles so there no point comparing them, the only thing in common they have is the are both very original drummers.
just to let you know...I know someone who has met this drummer more than one time and they said that he is so pompous that it's sickening. A little humility would be nice!
BS, ive personally met him and aside from that he is widely *known* for being one of the most fan-friendly down to earth people in the business. Heck, he even posts on his own web forum.
"I hate to be the one to break it to Darmikalus, but what happens when you divide the numerator and denominator of 6/12 by 3? I'll let you figure that one out, lol! Just a little musical humor."
you can technically have weird denomintors like that but its odd and can usually be written in a easier timing.
Well yes, Portnoy takes a lot of his influences from Peart. However the dance of eternity is a brilliant drum piece for which portnoy deserves all his own credit.
your a douche bag seriously you dont deserve to say anything about his music. I bet you have a crap band that can only play in 4/4 time signiture. these guys play in 3/16 and 6/12. You dont know talent until you know how to read and play Dream Theater's music. Have Fun Cuban!

8th note triplets are 12th notes. However, you will - as far as I know - never hear of anything in X/12 time. For example, 4/4 is the same as 12/12 if you're playing triplets. Besides, you almost always use the common denominator when defining time signatures - 6/12 is actually 2/4 or 1/2, which is a real time signature. Also, I can play most Dream Theater songs on the drums.

the instrumedley contains parts of the dance of eternity yes (offcourse), but also several other dream theater, liquid tension experiment, and other songs...

In response to the weird musical comments, what's a 12th note, if not just locking yourself into a triplet pattern?
