[nes313rd]

i rememer being at this specific show cuz of the marshmellow thing or donut it was at st andrews hall 99 i waas 11 at time where this camera was i was in front opposite side

[Yodapen6]

Less of a drum solo, more an emotional experience

[eennymo]

OHMIGOSH!!!!!!! I have NEVER seen anyone play drums like this before! Amaaazing! Hold that camara still!

[MetalliBunny]

in Oz he didn't have his whole kit. sadly i don't remember much of the concert :( but do remember him pushing the drums over >=;P

[confu5edfella]

Like every limb is completely oblivious to what the other 3 are doing!!

[necterium]

3:39  LOL

[TheJagzy]

Very out there.The new Mike of DT.

He will bring something fresh to DT.

Cant hrady wait for the album.

[eennymo]

HOLY COW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fraternica]

If only the camera guy had as good coordination as Mike Mangini.

Anyway, amazing drum solo, nonetheless!

Dimenticate Mike Portnoy Dream Theater uno dei batteristi più bravi del mondo anche se in verità il batterista del mondo è Billy Cohbam

@Wezmystaaaa

the only respectable drummer in your list is portnoy....

[ginjeeimano]

@howycwap well said (:

[jeffoden]

Mike Mangini for Dream Theater!!!

[JoeJacari]

@mmaier2112

Just kidding...

[JoeJacari]

Sometimes less is more. You know.

Travis Barker always...

You think TB would do something as ding bat as stuffing fricken' marshmallows in his mouth while playing a solo? WTF?

I wish somebody would have thrown a chili cheese dog into his mouth instead. That would have cured him of the need munch out and hot dog it when he should be focusing on doing a drum solo the right way.

Yeah. I'll be sure to bring plenty of crackers next time, this dude will supply the cheese.

Next...

[mmaier2112]

@JoeJacari Yeah, why the Hell would anyone want to have fun or a sense of humour onstage? Let's all put a dour look on our faces 24/7! That would be REALLY METAL!

[kigawman]

@Wezmystaaaa Just by looking at this drum solo, I think its ok to say that He could be by far the most suitable replacement for Mike Portnoy in Dream Theater, assuming he's one of those 7 drummers auditioning for the part as Labrie talked about.

[mushroomzagain]

Mike Mangini for dream theater!!!!

[zugnitremix]

Thumbs up if you wanna be as good as Mike Mangini at playing drums! :D

[RutboyNiles]

Mike Mangini,

inventor of Mullet-Motion-Technique

[RawkinOutt]

@Wezmystaaaa I agree that Mangini is amazing. But Ulrich, Jordison and Barker are three super over rated drummers.

[asdfghjkl8493]

Was he using nun-chucks ? It looked like it to me.

Amazing.

[drumdude46]

This guy is stupid Amazing. god. i'm a drummer. a good one. but.....this shit puts me to shame. how many hours a day do you have to practice to achieve THIS level of "chops" and sheer Ability. jeez. Lol!

[ryder187mac]

I prefer Mike over Virgil Donati tbh :d

[junkie2324]

[earcandy]

[blizzardtyrant]

photoshop..hahhahaha

he's a fucking drum machine!

[loumag7]

Boy , sometimes reading the comments is just as entertaining as the video.

[Kjeizen]

3:40 this is not a human being. his face moves as fast as his arms, which are the fastest in the world.

[kingodaskins]

where did the third arm come from!

[PINEAUSFUNKYLEGS]

HA! brilliant! hes SOOOO good and soooo much fun to watch on video. would love to get the chance to see him play live band or solo, doesnt matter :-)

[specialness16]

2:38 what the hell are you doing?

[jesusoncrack22]

really? your dissing travis barker? all drummers should respect all drummer. no matter what fuckin style you play.

[jjdrummer108]

he doesn't have a style hes a plain old lame shit drummer. Don't ever spew his name on this video. Travis wishes he could even be on a level where he was able to kiss mikes shoes.

[jesusoncrack22]

really? what kind of fuckin musician are you where you cant even see the good in other musicians especially drummers. fucker

[jjdrummer108]

hes not a good drummer AT ALL. hes good compared to people who have never played before. r u gonna sit here and tell me Travis Barker is a good drummer compared to ACTUAL drummers like Mike? nice try pal

[jesusoncrack22]

just because i dont have the word drum in my name? do i have to fuckin prove that i am a drummer by doing so. how long have you been playing for?!?!

[jjdrummer108]

wtf r u talking about? am i talking about ur drumming at all? no im talking about the statement people are making about travis barker being a good drummer in the drum world. ur going on about nothing man. please stop posting comments.

[jesusoncrack22]

yea. is there an underground "drum world" that i dont know about? a "drum world" where dickless fuck heads ,like yourself, have some kind of entitlement to rule on whose a good drummer? ill leave you on your own fuck hole.

[jjdrummer108]

u dont even make sense dude. the drum world = drummers. travis barker IS NOTHING to other drummers. you obviously can't understand what im saying, not to mention the fact that u can't make a proper sentence. stfu already man.

[jesusoncrack22]

no, i understand. you are just incredibly stupid and ignorant.

[jjdrummer108]

by saying that there are many drummers far more capable and better than travis barker and that there is a drumming community? wow that totally stupid and ignorant. ur fucking pathetic man.

[jesusoncrack22]

from the very beginning i said drummers should respect other drummers. i wasnt saying travis barker is the best ever, im saying drummers should respect other drummers it doesnt matter if you dont like their music, i respect mike mangini, not my favorite but i respect him.

[uhstud68]

I dont think that we should compare drummers at all. each drummer is different and has his own thing. comparing travis barker and mike mangini is like comparing buddy rich and george kollias. two completely different drummers with completely different styles. even though i dont actually think travis barker is any good anyways haha

[brunosmovies]

peart?

[christmyer23]

ok can i just say i agree with you on this mangini but travis barker?? shouldent even be compared to this drummer not calling you wrong just saying i think barker sucks dick hes so overrated

[collegebball9000]

hell tothemothafuckin yeah totally with that!!way overrated! barker sucks! he is in need of a proper education!

[jadover26]

3:34 is the start of something absolutely amazing!

[Kaburorne]

Such energy

[iBaraban]

totally SICK!!!!111

[warmachine23]

The Bruce Lee of the drums!! I saw him in 99 and he was eating a turkey leg while doin his solo! Hes a killer drummer!

[drumsticksinhand]

i love how he puts so much soul into like he feels it instead of just sitting there still ike hes letting the beat drive him him or something

[kingodaskins]

where did the 3rd and 4th arm come from?!

[benboy19]

2:00 - 2:05 SICK!

[199dan199]

hahaha his sticks must be smoking after that

[dreamtheaterz28]

lmao love his do in this video... mullet man haha. he still kills on drums tho

[bondo1955]

this guy is not human!!LOL! NOW I BELIEVE IN ALIENS What a talent He must practice 24/7

[EnvenomAscension]

I like his pompullet hair-do he's got going on. I thought he didn't chop all his hair off before 2000. I was wrong.

[MaxmokeCro]

i cant believe how can he do that on two sides playing and single arm speed,im drumer but i cant imagine that i must see him on concert

[robster4ever]

No wonder why he's not fat. So much calories being burnt.

[joromark]

which planet is he from???

i'd like to go there some day :)

[Hardysamnin]

Krypton

[ZombieOwen23]

ok i'm a newbe

[JudgementRyu999]

uhm does it hurt?

[heyawhaw]

hahaha! XD

[diameno]

Apart from the absolutely brilliant drumming, his facial expression tells a story of its own.

[sorbosux717]

yeah. it screams "i did too much blow!" lol

[f248bb]

この人は素晴らしい。

[Jimsa84]

Rad

Mangini rocks

[Peartyboy]

What I dislike about the vid (not anyone's fault): the lack of bass drum volume, and the horrible camera movement. What I like: Rare footage of him using his full-sized U.S. kit from that Vai tour, and it's yet another killer, fun, spontaneous Mangini solo. Great stuff!

[MisterDHM]

Yeah, it's lame how the camera moves away when he's doing the thing where he stuffs marshmallows in his mouth.

[58fev]

Fantastic

[Peartyboy]

I have this show on VHS - thanks for posting.

[MisterDHM]

Is your's cut off at the end too? Mine stops after the contest winner guy finishes his song. And I know there was more because I was at the show.
