That's exactly he'd done at the studio version, but we can't just clearly hear it. Sorry for my bad english.

Ridonkulous! I have tried to get into DT with Mike Mangini. He is a stupendous technical player and seems to be a really genuinely nice guy. But his sound and playing style are a little too perfect. Portnoy had all the chops, but he also has a looser feel that actually brought some personality to the table and makes some really technical stuff still sound human. And then he improvs on top of that. For me Dream Theater just can never be the same without Mike Portnoy. He was the heart of that band.

It’s just only about to be honest and realistic and face the truth! Portnoy is in a restricted category of musicians, one of the few biggest influential artists, in other words a Legend.

@mercyalex This is the real sound of drums without mics and a console. They actually sound very good friend. And the fact that you can make everything out of Portnoy's playing speaks about how tight and precise this dude is.

Mike is the man...AMAZING!!!

Great to see him play with no studio effects.... fucking great drummer this Mike person.

Good footage, thanks for adding it!

Oh god I remember i used to watch this when I was 5. Amazing video

Every drummers done it, we leave the chains loose on the snare and forget to switch it back up! Love his surprised look when he forgot "oops" 😂

The best drummer,i love portnoy.you is number one.prof mike portnoy.
