I love how he says "...for a band called Dream Theater" as if DT were a teenage garage band :D

[migueliax]

stop saying ''he speaks'', that's dumb. Just listen to the lesson

[blammerator]

this is probably one of the most straightforward instructional videos on bass ever

[THExDUELLISTS]

watching his left hand on the floor is quite entertaining while blazed..

[AxelHeusser]

Sounds so much like a chapman stick! Very cool

[HaZexHD]

I think personally as musicians everyone in dream theater is in the top 3 best for each instrument (to me they're #1 but to quiet down the trolls I said top 3) either way they all excel... This might sound stupid but go watch some hentai called love is the key to (something I can't remember) and just listen to the beginning music

Tell me this doesn't sound like it....

does anybody else want his bass? haha

[911jesse]

I agree, that for his genre, John Myung is one of the best bassists around. Been to several DT shows and I always get the impression he is an even better bassist when he's doubling the lines that Petrucci, not only plays, but also writes? ...

[CheesyWobbles]

that beginning bass thing is thing is the most mind-bending thing i've heard

[NoSurprisesPlease0]

@migueliax hah right, its kind of disrespectful too.

@andrewbautista23 He is doing descending fifths because tonal harmony is based on the relation dominant - tonic. The dominant is constructed on the perfect fifth above a chord, that's why, harmonically, the resolution of a dominant chord to his tonic is considered as a cycle of descending fifth, even if pratically it can be equally a descending fifth or an ascending fourth. This cycle of fifth can be applied in a tonality (diatonic) or not (chromatic) and with a large variety of chord types.
