@oneluvgangsta187

thats a steve gadd lick

[TheJaypeefox]

I have the same drum seat like he



[mattjarl]

Why should a great drummer like Nick wanna join a shitty band like Dream theater? Dream Theater just needs a technical monster without feeling.

[CompulsiveDesigns]

@mattjarl

I don't know if you're just trying to get reactions but they're actually really good, not just the older albums. Sometimes they go overboard on the wankfests (I felt it was like that mostly on train of thought and systematic chaos) but it was pretty shortlived compared to what people draw it out to be :s

[sharkey123ful]

HORRIBLE IM BETTER

[HotJuicyBurger23]

damn John Stewart is tearing it up on the drums!

[mrgober0ne]

so much better than macaluso

[2112titus]

A lot of people in the drum forums I've been reading seem to be rooting for Mike Mangini for the spot in Dream Theater. Personally, I think Nick would be a better candidate. grrrrrrrr I hate waiting!!!

[royorock]

AND..he sings pretty well

[EandBProductions24]

I know his daughter...well I used to. We went to the same school.

[FrizzyDiouleBiGbonus]

c'est nul

[hitchhiker3090]

Who cares, Spock's Beard is better than Dream Theater anyways haha.

[ymhaguy96]

Damn John Stewart is killing it on the drums!!

[Tanzbaer777]

musically nick's one of the best out there. and a great multi-instrumentalist as well. but he's too subtle for DT...i'm quite sure he's not interested in playing train of thought or so...

[fixxxer152000]

...Hmmm. A good candidate for Dream Theater's empty drum throne.

[signpostsays]

@fixxxer152000

Maybe he could buy Mikes old Mapex/Awake kit the next time it shows up on Ebay.. :)

[lotrfreak324]

@fixxxer152000 no doubt he's an incredible drummer, but I don't think he's aggressive enough to fill Mike Portnoy's shoes

[otiasdsr]

@fixxxer152000 yes, Simon Phillips could bring something new to dreamtheater too.

Sorry for my english ;S

[fingerboy18]

@fixxxer152000 He'd be a great addition to the vocal harmonies as well.

[317driveby]

@fixxxer152000 I think peter wildoer would be best with his ties to james labrie and very technical drummer he is the busiest drummer i know

[317driveby]

@fixxxer152000 I think peter wildoer would be best with his ties to james labrie and very technical drummer he is the busiest drummer i know

shit thomas lang would also be a great one there are so many out there i cant wait to hear the replacement Mike portnoy is one of my heroes its really upsetting and disapointing to know he is leaving but i cant wait to hear new material

[dpgiaca97]

@fixxxer152000 that can never happen.

[paolo1988]

he's a drummer with capital D... amazing!! and what a natural sound!! his double strokes (both hands and feet) are perfect!!

This guy really knows how to play drums!! And most importantly, WHITOUT DRUM TRIGGERS!

[ulrich87]

I'm off to listen to more Spock's Beard! Nick is amazing!

[McDrummerSLR]

1:05 - 1:18 :D

[EmperorGabriel]

he's so clean technique very good drummer i like his style

[wilbert526]

hi i am wilbert .i know a little bit from drummer.nick you are the best drummer that i have hear in my entire live!!!

[NHL2K10Highlights]

amazing!!!

[jtchivers]

Some lovely 11/8 playing from 03:00 and listen to that Rickenbacker bass growl! Phwoarr! Chris Squire would be proud of Dave Meros. Great band live, Spock's Beard, but I'm still not convinced by the name!

[Calebedmr]

Great Grooving

[pepin272]
