He explained in an interview that they're closer than they look, he actually has to barely raise his arm to reach them and it's much more confortable for him.
I gotta tell ya Mike, I really love how you're allowing for your fans to have easier access to content that we can enjoy from you and DT. What a wonderful performance might I add and thank you for the super cool point of view!
Ralf Egger I think he’s actually kind of boring. Doesn’t have the feel. Marco,Aquiles,and Lang have more feel and creativeness. As I honestly don’t see the technical part of him. It think it’s all very basic. Idk that’s just my opinion.
Looks like he was playing absolutely perfect without any point of effort, looks like magic..... and most important always trying to connect the beat with the people, with a smile in his face. I always will love mike portnoy's theater but im in love with mangini`s theater. Can´t wait to see him live in London 2023!
@@victorroncaglia1798 Just being pedantic here but for anyone wondering, originally the snares are 8th triplets. Mangini turns them into 16ths which was pretty crazy, real nice. So from 12 snare's per bar to 16.
TheAdmiral 2245 I met him at John petrucci’s guitar universe and he was so chill. We talked about drums and dream theater for like 20 minutes. Really a great guy.
Mangini's hand and foot independence, dexterity, endurance, consistency is the greatest ive ever seen. The amount of practice and effort is very evident, it is like the metronome is following him
It's a shame but I highly doubt all of Mike's intricate ghost strokes, accents, rebounds and just the general complexity of everything he does can truly be appreciated in a live arena audio environment. Even with the best acoustics there's no way the audience can pick all of it up.
I simply love this video. It's so perfect I would buy a complete "dvd" out of this video I loved watching this tour live and I always like to watch it again Forever on my heart seeing Mangini doing these moves Please release a drum cam bootleg 🤞
Gerardo Aguas-Baterísta/Drummer - there‘s always ‘better’ .... it’s quite meaningless in the end though. ;-) Music is not just a competition of who is faster or better. In fact I would claim that Thomas Lang’s music who surely technically is a great drummer is very boring and uninvolving. Mangini’s blast are still so good that normal drummers can admire them without someone telling them how average he is... ;-) He is an amazing drummer and performer and it’s pretty clear why he made it in the Dream Theatre. The audition was extremely difficult.
First off this isnt a competition between portnoy and ManGini , that said, Not only does mike make it look effortless, but it is so spot on. Its mind blowing how fast and articulate he plays, Massachusetts breeds some exceptional Talent, because along with the hard work I know he and others have put in, there is a certain level of God given talent in them as well.
I like this song very much. First it was for the lyrics, as they described a car accident on the time my father had one back when this was released. And after the Audition, it's the first DT song I have seen Mangini playing. And he crushed it since this event. Mangini, you're amazing! Saw you in New Brunswick, NJ, and had the chance to see you close by on the Meet & Greet. I was frozen and could not remember anything to say. Some days after I just remembered that I would have wanted to say to you that I also played the Quads on my high school drumline in Brazil and I love your drumset layout!
He did a drum clinic at the store where I used to teach. He used my lesson room to warm up in. Afterward some of the staff, Mike, and former Pearl rep, Doug Smith had dinner together. One of the most memorable nights of my life. I remember standing next to him to see which one of us was taller. I think he was by an inch or two. I want to say that was in 2000, or 2001.
Please, bring more of this! I had the pleasure to see you guys live on this tour and would love to watch your performances that close! You are the best!
Mike your a God, I have been into Rock music and going to Concerts for over 40 years and in that time i have had the pleasure/privileged of seeing some of the best drummers in the world. Mike what your doing on a kit you have taken over the Crown and raised it to the Stars. Dave HULL, ENGLAND
Beautiful playing and footage Mr. Mangini, thanks for sharing it! Please upload that kind of content more often when your time allows it, and speaking of time, thanks again because you should be celebrating holidays with your closest ones and yet, find time to share with fans... Happy Holidays and New year
I saw Mike do a solo at the Astoria London with Steve Vai. At one point he played poly tempos. He was maintaining two tempos. Isolating his brain! Half the audience got it, the other half started booing. I will never forget. It was astonishing.
Yeah, I remember him in Steve Vai concert, too, in 2001. I did not know him back then. In solo section he did crazy shit, mimicking every beat Vai mumbled in his month. They also had a badass guitarist/keyboardist, too. He also mimicked Vai's mouth blabber melodies first on guitar, then on keyboard then finally left hand on guitar right hand on keyboard at the same time. Absolute shit!!!! I never forgot that. I don't know his name. He wore a funny clowny outfit.
@@jelleepit yeah. After writing my message I looked it up. Actually it was 2000 Vai's Ultra Zone tour. And I learned it was Keneally. I even found a video of Bulgaria concert on youtube. The only video from that tour interestingly.
Smash those hunks of metal!! That's a whole lot of notes to play in one song, and many changing phrases to remember too. It's amazing what the human being is capable of when we apply ourselves with many hours of practice. Fantastic 👋👏👏👏
That drum kit especially the snare has to be the most amazing sounding kit I've ever heard,not to mention what your hearing is the actual sound before the mics send it through the p,a, PLEASE post more
Tive o prazer de ver o show do Dream Theater no Anhembi em São Paulo em Dezembro e Mike Mangini é excelente. As passagens de bateria tremiam o chão. O Cara é um monstro. Toca muito!!!!
Llegando del trabajo y viendo TH-cam en la laptop. Y comienza este video y tipo, ok es Mr Mangini (ya había visto este video) pero de repente mi cabeza explotó 😳🤯🤯🤯 lo único que conseguí decir fue WTF!?? Necesitamos que suba más videos de estos en este nuevo tour 'A View From The Top of The Word'
NoLifeTilLeather 13 he can play good. But I’ve heard better. Should check out between the buried and me. They’re drummer is sick. And I wouldn’t mind putting him above portnoy either. And portnoys been my almighty god for as long as I could remember lol
Mike is really "playing around" that track. He is incredible. Sonmuch Technique, stamina and coordination. I cant undertsand quite well his setting on hihats . He is mad Crazy drum genious.

Drum tech: Mr Mangini, how high you want your cymbals?
Mangini: Yes.
Also drum tech: Mr Mangini, which parts do you want on your kit?
Also Mangini: Yes
He explained in an interview that they're closer than they look, he actually has to barely raise his arm to reach them and it's much more confortable for him.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it probably also helps with the mic setup! His sound engineer must like him :)
Where they comfortable to him
😅
I gotta tell ya Mike, I really love how you're allowing for your fans to have easier access to content that we can enjoy from you and DT. What a wonderful performance might I add and thank you for the super cool point of view!
MONSTROUS!!! we need drum cams of every DT song with Mangini. I'd love it and it would shut the haters up
His style the way he plays drums is unique. Humble and very professional drummer.🤘♥️
This is the reason why Mike Mangini is for sure one of the greatest drummer on the planet, awesome 👍

I think you right.. some musician they had technique, but they don’t have creativity..
Agreed!

Love that he can switch between left and right hand lead so flawlessly, awesome!
4:32 devastating blast beat 👌👌👌
I remember Portnoy saying how hard those blast beats were, Mangini not only does them but doubles it, holy shit
@@Adrmeisterwerk exactly!
I Love the Portnoy's style, Lynch and creative sounds, but Mangini is freaky technical...really in the next level
When ?
Actually, he only doble the snare. I guess
@@victorroncaglia1798 Just being pedantic here but for anyone wondering, originally the snares are 8th triplets. Mangini turns them into 16ths which was pretty crazy, real nice.
So from 12 snare's per bar to 16.
Mark Riches ... please specify time stamp of this passage of 16ths, I am not really a drummer, and don’t know what m really hearing
Remembering your audition Mike 🍺 great display of talent!
My favorite drummer ever and one of my favorite songs ever! I wish I could meet him before I die.
He's as funny to talk with as he is to watch. Had dinner with him and several others after a clinic in Waterford mi.
He is one FUNNY dude for sure.

Yeah, the nights you'll never remember are always the best nights ;)

You also need to upload more drum cam footage like this
would be better if it were CD quality

Check the Peter webber drum cam. (Havok)

I Was in Rio de Janeiro, One of The Best shows that I saw, You’re a Monster Mike!!

So clean and crisp at the same time. I f love this man's excecution! 😜
The original one from the record is a lot better

I've been waiting for this since May 3, 2011.
Behold! Video footage of Mike Mangini performing the blast beat section of a Nightmare to Remember 😍
One of the best drumcam videos i have ever seen in my life 🤘 absolutly amazing 💪🤘😍😊🥁❤️
Damn you really gain an appreciation of his skills when u watch him like this.
Sir Mike Mangini is really one of the greatest drummer in the world!
Yes!!! Tour videos are the best! Incredible performance! That setup is SO cool... and sounds SOOO GOOD!!! Kick drum floor toms!!!
God this is sick. I've wanted videos of just this for such a long time. Blast beat was sick. Also those hertas on the kicks at 3:30 are super clean.
I don’t understand all the hate MM got for being in DT.
MM is an incredible drummer.
Thank you Mike
Mike Mangini is just warming up lol😂😂😂
Thats right lol
When quick finger use can not be loud.
I simply love this video. It's so perfect
I would buy a complete "dvd" out of this video
I loved watching this tour live and I always like to watch it again
Forever on my heart seeing Mangini doing these moves
Please release a drum cam bootleg 🤞
4:25 Blast beat advanced level , 4:32 Blast beat Mangini level!...
There's a shit ton of drummers who do better blasts than those.

Sounds like a machine gun
That was the cleanest blastbeat I've ever heard
That's a great blast for a non extreme metal drummer

I can't stop of watching!!! Just killer dude..!
This drum cam is so clean. I really love it, and, yeah love you too, Mike! Haha! Your chops are so effortless (esp. the blast beats) and amazing!
When Mike Mangini is making this easy. :D
Mike Mangini is the best drummer we have seen, not only in our lifetime but ever since the advent of the modern drum kit.
No....Tony Williams and Brian Blade are more interesting and more inventive.
I like Mike though. I prefer him to Portnoy.
We need more of this!!!
Mangini be like :
4:24 😴
4:32 😡
Mangini on 4:32 is 🙂

Por fin podemos apreciar lo que tocó ese día. Movistar ql jajaja
Es la pura verdad, el sonido en general no estuvo bueno, pero con la batería se ensañó más. Extrañé mucho el bombo y los platillos.
Ctm weon lo que me perdí por culpa del sonido :( un crack Mangini
Acá en Argentina fue lo mismo, empezó sonando horrible y terminó bastante bien. Ah, por cierto, grande Nico, sos un crack!
Claramente el Sonidista es un puto y se la come! jajaja
Que Grande Mangini
Nico Borie toda la razón Nico, no se escuchaba nah la batería
This is whats called the next level of mike portnoy 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Impressive 🔥🔥🔥

This makes so much sense. Just play like a clock. (Diminished of course). Amazing, Mike. Thank You for putting it into perspective.
Crazy genius!
More videos like this one please!! Very interesting to see your playing. Too much to learn. 🤘

The sound of that kit though. Incredible!
1:16 is where the men are separated from the boys.

Absolutely perfect 💖💖
1 of the best in the business!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BRO that push pull technique in the 2nd half section of the blast beat was such a tasteful addition to the original! Noiiice
It's not push-pull, it's wrist single strokes.
Watched DT 2 years ago and drums sounds so good when you are actually there. Would be cool to see Mike more energetic like in audition videos.
2:44 LOOK AT THE CROWD WE WEREN'T DOING THAT THE DT CONCERT I WENT TO WTF
The filmed one i went to in London was seated so i guess we didnt have a choice. It wouldve looked sick on the DVD!
