THE BEST DRUMMER EVER
NO ARGUMENT
NOT GONNA GET A GUY LIKE MIKE IN A WHILE
I WAS THERE

I was there, OMG, how does he hit that cymbal that fast with one hand, genius :D
-
Imagine the shit Dream Theater is gonna do with him on the next album...damn!
-
@gigman74 ...drummers hit things...
-
I was there, it was a great show.

@gigman74 New CD really isnt going to test what Mangini is going to sound like with Dream Theater. He didn't write any of the drums on this CD, the rest of the band wrote them in a drum program and were like "Hey, is this possible for you to do?" and he did. I'd say whatever CD comes after this, will be a true show of his ability when he actually gets to write.

Mike is THE best drum technician on the planet - surpassing even Lang and Donati - but Marco and Vinnie are still the best musician "super-chopsters" out there. Close third place though, isn't this guy GREAT?!

Mangini seems like two different people almost; super chill, slightly flamboyant fellow as a person, but behind the kit, one of the beastliest, most intense people alive.
Better than any Portnoy solo i've seen but nowhere near as enjoyable as Minnemann.

@imjackcooper Minnemann is much better in my opinion.

@gigman74 Minnemann doesn't have shit on this guy. A class apart.

@kamikaze90watermelon With regards to "interesting" drum patterns, Marco wins!!

@gigman74 Dudes, as to interesting it is all up to taste.... As to knowledge, skill and speed from an objective (kinda..) stand point it is a different story. Mangini is better than all of them. And also, to my view, has more interesting although very different patterns going on! But then again that is MY taste..

@nengstro I couldn't care less if mangini plays a pattern left handed/footed or plays a rhythm with one hand where most can only play it with two... It's about the sound on the CD for me, the composition. Lets see what the new CD brings, or maybe the one after that!
