Mike Mangini is a great drummer and we all should be thankful with him for going ahead with Dream Theater (I think the best album with Mangini is A view from the top of the world). But Mike Portnoy was/is more than a drummer for the band. He is musically rich and adds music to the band. I hope better times for Dream Theater from now on. He is part of the soul of the band.

It kills me that this entire show isn't available on video. It's a top notch performance by everyone in the band, and even though the setlist was lacking they still put on a great performance.

The mixing of this show is great!

Hi here fellow Portnoy fan, enjoying the fact that this video is going to be obsolete soon :D

I always heard about DT but never heard any sound from them. Two weeks ago I got interested and started listening. I was impressed with the technique and a very good sound to hear. I believe the band has gained another fan.

Mike was right, they should have had a break for a few years. Writing, recording and then going on long tours constantly is not good for your mental health as Mike found out.

and it was not even because of mental health, literally the reason he gave them was to "renew" as a band and have a fresh take. They ended up not taking the Hiatus, and subsequently releasing 3 shit albums.

@@Zealot_cs Lol, yeah true. Though I do think there was an aspect of mental health; Mike was clearly unhappy deep down, he might have just said 'to renew' as a cover.

Mike Portnoy is not just a drummer for DT he is everything what classic DT should sound, he provides showmanship, he lift the presence of the entire group with their live shows,. the groove he creates is palatable without diminishing its technicalities. Mangini was just all technical that's all, just dry. this line up definitely missed by all fans

The Portnoy "Ding!"

Watching this hurts my heart. Portnoy has always been one of my favorite drummers of all time, seeing this makes me wonder if he knew already in his mind that it was his last show with the band?

@mrjacob0101

Жыл бұрын

NMB has something that largely misses from Dream Theater and that is being melodic AND techny at the same time! I'm pretty sure Petrucci can play whatever Gilette plays but Eric tends to be the more interesting musician to my ears. And don't let me start on vocals, LaBrie sucks for the past 20 years at least while Morse sounds exactly the same as in the Spock's Beard days and Eric is even better. I am very biased about the keyboards because I don't like them in DT at all and Neal Morse is one of my favourites of all time, along with Bill Hubauer! NMB is much much more than Mike Portnoy, but when I saw them live in the Innocence and Danger tour, my eyes were glued in him for the first set at least.

Song names?

Curious did Mike know this be it? Or did he come to leaving later? A shame because I thought Black clouds was so dam good.

When they were the best on the planet the end of a dream

Obviously every one of them is a stunning musician (although the singing gets tedious...), but Portnoy was the only one of them with character and personality that came across to the audience. That is a large reason why bands like Rush and The Beatles are so loved. They have personality. Myung, Petrucci and Rudess play like robots. Portnoy 'plays' when he plays. He was the only reason I'd bother going to a DT concert.
