Dream Theater - In the Presence of Enemies Pt.1 - Intro Solo

As requested. Just learned this a couple of minutes before recording. When I practice it more and get a better feel of its nuances I might redo the recording. :) Enjoy as is for now!

What all are you using Amp/effects wise. You're tone is absolutely beautiful. haha

[Enc3f4L0]

Thank you! I'm using a Mesa Boogie Mark IV and TC Electronic G-Force.

[AndreyDelany]

Fantastic Thiago!!! another time you do a absolutely fantastic job!!! very good playing!

Bye

[Enc3f4L0]

Thanks. I'd love to visit Italy. Maybe someday my band will go... We'll be releasing an album hopefully next year, so we'll see where that'll take us. Take care.

What is the name of your band, Thiago?

[Enc3f4L0]

I have 2 bands.

One is called 'Bad Salad', the other 'Ordem Inversa'.

[AlexCronex]

The Mark IV is the best amp, but so expensive..

cheers alex

[RSW033]

Very good feeling !!! you just nailed it perfectly. 5 Stars, its a pleasure to watch you play

[DingTongBell]

I love your serious look when you're playing this solo. Just so much feeling.

[Raive00]

you almost eat the wire of the earphones. xD

[gnryeah]

Damned earpohe cable... looks like you're eating it, hahah. Awesome playing man!

[freminick123]

god your the best

[shipuuga]

god dammit i really thought this was a fake in the beginning.. VERY nice

[Happytaco1236]

i know, but at the end of the second part, instead of the keyboard thing, they could the the "i no longer serve you, dark master." part(at the very end), and then Petrucci would play a variation on this solo (like in "The Count of Tuscany), i would say it would make the song better.

if you don't know what i mean, listen to the intro and outro solos of the count of tuscany and you'll get my point.

[runnerdude5000]

well it is a two part song, that they just decided to split in half after completing the album. where i believe the song, both parts, switches keys enough as it is.

[Happytaco1236]

who else thinks this song should end with a variation of this solo, just like "The Count of Tuscany" on their new album. Starts out with a solo. and repeats it with a couple of variations and in a different key at the end, it would make the song more epic, in my opinion.

[fritzk3]

Definitely hear the delay... would love to know what the settings (rate, feedback, etc.) were.

[zboj12]

Yes. Every Mesa sounds like Petrucci.

Are you deaf or what?
