It's a fucking tragedy and a sign of our times that MacAlpine is not given the universal recognition his skill level deserves. The sweeps, the shredding. OMFG!
Check out Frank Marino some say he was a better guitarist than Hendrix hard to believe but see for yourself see babaylon instunental aint dead yet plus Johhny b Goode live.
@Andy Butler indeed. so did Virgil. also, anybody that would be stupid enough to doubt TMac should just shut up and check out planet x. with universe and moonbabies, he had guitar duties on two of the craziest and best instrumental prog fusion albums ever made and freaking OWNED them. not as lot of people would even attempt to do this stuff
Here it is: T-Mac is great! JP is great! Sheehan is great! Myung is great! Tony Levin is great! Sherinian is great! Rudess is great! Moore is great! Portnoy is great! Mangini is great! Let's just be glad we get to hear amazing music from such great performers :-D
@@losferwords7830 I can't say we're best friends but when he lived here in Buffalo he lived down the street from me. He would stop over from time to time & we'd talk. I filled in for him with his old band Talas when he left for David Lee Roth. The bass player that was playing with Dave & Paul couldn't do some shows so they called me. Last time Billy & I talked was the Winery Dogs tour at the Hard Rock in Niagara falls.
Man, how Portnoy and Sheehan play all of these different gigs with different guys and so many complicated songs -- and keep it all straight and tight. My brain would be scrambled eggs.
I do have to say however, Derek seemed to have issues playing the piano part in the beginning of Acid Rain on time which is perplexing considering how well he played more complicated parts.
Tony MacAlpine is just a beast. I'm convinced his hands are bionic. Saw Tony on the Maximum Security tour in 2014, and even his sound check will blow your mind. If he missed a note, he just turned it in to the prettiest sweep arpeggio you've ever heard. They were the best mistakes I've ever heard. Thank you for sharing this piece of badassery.
Very late comment, I know :D Miles Davis once said about mistakes something in the lines of ' It is no biggie that you play a wrong note - what matters is the following note' I've been T-Mac fan since Maximum Security and if he ever plays a wrong note, which I haven't been able to hear, well he sure knows how to pick the best possible following note 😉
I'm totally Blown Away! Not only did they play great but they look like they were having fun doing it! Who the hell in the right mind could have given this a thumbs down??
I wish more genres and the prog scene would treat it's classic songs and musicians like jazz musicians do. A ton of extremely skilled and nuanced players building on standards, and instead of arguing over who should and shouldn't play a song, we just listen. Judging by the comments we are becoming more open to that kind of thing.
Very solid insight. I like the way you think! I think part of the issue is jazz standards are old enough that no one owns the copyrights anymore. All the copyright holders have to play well together for this to happen.
ADRENALINE MOB AND WINERY DOGS ARE PRETTY BUTTROCK COMPARED TO DT mike made the wrong choice hahah now he locks himself in his room and air drums/ jerks off to the self titled dream theater album
You can type Fantastic and Goosebumps but not Dream Theater??? I understand you not wanting to type Liquid Tension Experiment but seriously are you that lazy ??? it is so Fantastic you cant even use complete sentences.............
Have you caught up with the DT cover band 'Awake'? They are from Romania. The singer is a girl and she is better than JL. She has a slight accent (a bit like Melania) she's also very hot. They have videos on TH-cam worth watching.
I completely agree with kommisar. This performance is stellar. Why bicker about this and that? Enjoy the superhuman playing of these magnificent musicians. And, are we not all part of the prog rock family? I, for one, feel most grateful these favorite musicians of mine got together and gave me (and all of you) the gift of this performance. How about we all just shake hands and enjoy the majesty of the music caught on film in that moment in time?
MacAlpine is my second favorite guitarist of all time next to Shawn Lane. Billy Sheehan has been very influential to me and will always be my favorite bassist. Acid Rain is also one of the best instrumentals in recent history. This was overwhelmingly awesome. I can die happy now.
+Despond Just to add, I looked it up, it seems like colon cancer, that's a really type to have. All the best to him, I hope he beats it and recovers and goes back to shredding.
+Rich Small from Tony's website: "I would like to extend a heartfelt message to all of you..thanking you sincerely for all of the wonderful support you have given me over the many years, and especially now through this difficult time. ... We never really know why things happen to us in our lives and what reasons they happen for - at least not right away, but I am always in search of what lessons we are constantly being taught, and have learned to accept things as they are. I do know that I am blessed to have been able to contribute my art to the music scene, and more so to do it for you all."
I’ve met Tony MacAlpine several times, and he really is one of the kindest people you’ll ever meet. He’s a bit of a kidder too, as he did some rabbit ears on my for a picture lol.. very talented, and during two of his show at a small local music store auditorium, I literally sat less than 5 feet from him. Awesome musician.
I had the chance to meet him as well in the street... just recognised him with his wife B and said hello to them.. super kind people. Was when both were ill... I've seen them several more times afterwards but didn't want to disturb them. Very happy to see they are both ok
O Miguel he is chill. I’ve seen him around 5 years or so, ago, at The Baked Potato in Studio City, and after the show, he was just chillin at the bar drinking a beer. I didn’t bother to approach him because he is the kind of musician who just wants to chill to himself after a show and I respect that.
Better than Petrucci, Tony has a smile on his face, Petrucci always looks terrified and stressed out that he is going to make a mistake This video was so refreshing to watch, I stopped being a fan of Dream Theater because Petrucci just ruined the band, I play guitar and would never emulate Petrucci's pathetic looking style. MacAlpine is playing with no fear and simply killing it, that is how to play guitar, you will always make a mistake from time to time but a good guitarist you will never know it.
Tony MacAlpine. One of the most underrated musician. When you play with Steve Vai and you do keyboard and guitar well your are good. Hats off to Portnoy - Sheenan - MacAlpine - Sherinian , Pettruci - Myung - Mangini - Rudess - Levin and many more who are great musician and are a delight to listen to.
Mister Billy Sheehan, you are so great in this, and even there, you are able to include your amazing groove, you're still surprise us , after all this years, with all these great musicians , you're still doing progress ... i love that ... like the wine, even better with the age ! it's not my kind of music but i have to say this is great playing ! thanks for that .
A group of men that have absolutely mastered music. I am glad that Mike and DT parted ways if for nothing more than this one performance. BRAVO gentleman!
Just a bunch of guys hanging around the local barbershop, having a conversation in music. They're all fun to listen to, have something to contribute individually and as a group, and no one needs to have the last word. They could do this at a Ted Talk and teach a few people some things.
A better DT than DT. An actual living being playing bass, NO SINGER, 8 string-shred maestro that's not an egomaniac, and a key wizard that isnt boring.
Seeing Sheehan play solo - distortion/bass: makes me think of Cliff Burton's mastery and early departure (big hands/long fingers/similar postures) both pioneers on how to play bass
No if's or but's, these guys are shredders. MacAlpine has a much more post-bop jazz sensibility than most metallers. To some ears this may not "rock as hard" as the more traditional harmonies. For me, a blazing lead that suddenly spreads out into a more alien harmony is like a coaster drop. It's great when they lock back into primal grooves.
heavy metal fan from within morrow, the core of my bones, along with appreciating all satriani as my favorite guitarist of all. A big fan of the winery dogs without a doubt. This performance just literally blew me away. I'm right after this looking for more
I feel strange watching this clip with all the players involved, but honestly think each player did great work on these tracks! I think MacAlpine is pretty stunning as a guitarist.
***** Your stupid remarks mixed with unwarranted hate shows us who you are which he was spot on to begin with. A tip that most of you jealous guys don't seem to grasp, if you spent half the time working on your ability to play as you do crying about someone better than you, you might actually be something. But people like you are pretty damn stupid so I doubt it will happen enjoy being nobody.
T-Mac is literally the most underrated guitarist ever sometines I wonder he is not even been called by Satriani once for a G3 tour. Sheehan is always being the craziest bassist ever surpassing Levin and Myung both I must say Portnoy was literally on fire leading the whole group since both of them are his compositions The man who steal the show was Derek, OMG controlling four keyboards together with that god speed like Rudess and tuning some weirdest sounds ever like what Steve Vai do with his guitar
Ecclesiastical Umbilical cord/ chord - Sheer Honey for the Ears. I am by no means a huge fan of "Prog Rock", BUT this quartet transcends any comparison to that which has gone before in this genre. They are seemingly a hybrid of all that was brilliant in bands such as ELP & Yes, for starters, Man, this is the resurrection of Prog Rock !
Depending with who you speak with. His a session monster and had enourmous friendship with all the greatest. I think he is playing with Simon Philips and Protocol last time i checked.....👀
as far as i know, it was Portnoy who invited Labrie after hearing the recordings he send, and they had a good relationship to each other. This is just your opinion, not Mike´s.

Bro it's not just that, his accents, vibratos etc. are just so beautiful, so clean. Just mind blowing man.
Check out Frank Marino some say he was a better guitarist than Hendrix hard to believe but see for yourself see babaylon instunental aint dead yet plus Johhny b Goode live.
Yes, but it's easier to copy than invent
Tony is an amazing composer himself. Do yourself a favor and check out his 30+ year career of awesome music!

logicape Man knows his prog.
Yeap!
Yeah, and quit commenting altogether forever. RAmen.
Spot on logicape!
Best coment of Dream Theater that i have ever seen in the internet. lol.
You know...I love Myung. I love Levin. But there is always something magical about watching Billy Sheehan play bass.
I do agree
Sheehan is crazy, he IS bass
myung cites sheehan as one of his influencer so.. you get the gist.
Who needs lyrics when you can express your self so well with instruments 👏🏼
YUP!!!
they were the norm back in the 60s, ELP,/Rick Wakeman/ Jethro Tull.. , they were Musicians NOT computer fingers ?
@@bobboy53 More in the 70s.
I agree!
I love how Portnoy is always listening and watching the other guys and follows them when they add their own little adlibs during their solos.
Five geniuses on this video: portnoy, macalpine, sheehan, sherinian and the video director. Mindblowing!
Good call on the video director's skill! I've seen other performances just killed by poor cutting/editing.
Billy Sheehan is just incredible. He's playing all of the parts here perfectly and making it look so effortless.
Yeah on 4 strings no less lol. I've known Billy for years since late 70s. Great guy phenomenal bassist.
@@joemartucci4786do you actually KNOW him?

@@joemartucci4786 that's awesome bro! Thanks for the info. I'm very intrigued 🙏
Out of all four guys on the stage, Billy is the best at his instrument. Portnoy being a close second.
I don't care who's better than who else, these guys are so much fun.
Agreed!
❤
Anyone who sees music as a competition is NEVER a good musician
Man, how Portnoy and Sheehan play all of these different gigs with different guys and so many complicated songs -- and keep it all straight and tight. My brain would be scrambled eggs.
And with a good feeling - it is not so good quality but e.g Neal Morse "The Storm Before the Calm" with MP live is quite qreat to see
I do have to say however, Derek seemed to have issues playing the piano part in the beginning of Acid Rain on time which is perplexing considering how well he played more complicated parts.
Thats because youre an idiot
Practice. Hours everyday until its muscle memory. Yesterday alone I practiced 12 hours... You got to want it.
That's because they are professionals but I see your point
Tony MacAlpine is just a beast. I'm convinced his hands are bionic. Saw Tony on the Maximum Security tour in 2014, and even his sound check will blow your mind. If he missed a note, he just turned it in to the prettiest sweep arpeggio you've ever heard. They were the best mistakes I've ever heard. Thank you for sharing this piece of badassery.
Very late comment, I know :D
Miles Davis once said about mistakes something in the lines of ' It is no biggie that you play a wrong note - what matters is the following note'
I've been T-Mac fan since Maximum Security and if he ever plays a wrong note, which I haven't been able to hear, well he sure knows how to pick the best possible following note 😉
MacAlpine was far ahead of most other players at the time when he came out with "tears of Sahara"
I'm totally Blown Away! Not only did they play great but they look like they were having fun doing it! Who the hell in the right mind could have given this a thumbs down??
I wish more genres and the prog scene would treat it's classic songs and musicians like jazz musicians do. A ton of extremely skilled and nuanced players building on standards, and instead of arguing over who should and shouldn't play a song, we just listen. Judging by the comments we are becoming more open to that kind of thing.
Very solid insight. I like the way you think! I think part of the issue is jazz standards are old enough that no one owns the copyrights anymore. All the copyright holders have to play well together for this to happen.
A masterclass demonstration of musicianship by all!!!
I'll follow Mike's musical career to the ends of the earth, everything he has done has been gold
Mike definitely has that undefineable "magic" to whatever he does
adrenaline mob?
C. Cuzma
No, the winery dogs
ADRENALINE MOB AND WINERY DOGS ARE PRETTY BUTTROCK COMPARED TO DT mike made the wrong choice hahah now he locks himself in his room and air drums/ jerks off to the self titled dream theater album
If you meet him i bet you would tell him that.
Portnoy is great. He makes music sound good.
WOW as a dream theatre fan I have no words. Fantastic!!
MacAlpine amazing and complete musician!
Edoardo Primo he’s the reason why I wanna have a 7 and 8 strings guitar with floyd rose! 🙏🎸
This is freaking FANTASTIC!!! Gave me goosebumps seeing Portnoy doing DT and LTE tunes....
You can type Fantastic and Goosebumps but not Dream Theater??? I understand you not wanting to type Liquid Tension Experiment but seriously are you that lazy ???
it is so Fantastic you cant even use complete sentences.............
Featuring the best Dream Theater vocalist ever.
haha
Have you caught up with the DT cover band 'Awake'? They are from Romania. The singer is a girl and she is better than JL. She has a slight accent (a bit like Melania) she's also very hot. They have videos on TH-cam worth watching.
Alexis Bietti - lyrics by J. Myung
Any keyword?
you are kidding right? original is ofcourse MUCH BETTER!
Sheehan can kill it with only 4-string bass ! Nuts !
rizal kartos that sheehan for you!
he doesn't need 5 strings at all...
deadmau573 the DT version was recorded with a 6 string bass
I thin 4 strings is enough, even for the fairer sex th-cam.com/video/tgffDVO2UyA/w-d-xo.html
He just made it up, nothing what myung plays lol. 🤷🏻♂️
T-Mac is flawless
MacAlphine is crazy multi talented
あれだけのプレイをしながら常にメンバーの顔を確認しつつ本当に音楽が楽しいんだな！って観てるもの惹きつけるプレイスタイル。ポートノイ最高たる所以はやはり彼のエンターテインメント性なのですかね。この人のドラムは何時間観てても飽きない♬大好きです😊
Billy Sheehan youre awasome

Scott McBean Done deal.
Scott McBean so true!
Scott McBean couldnt have said it better
Bickering is how some people like to pat themselves on the back.
What sick, sick players MacAlpine and Sheehan are. Unreal performance. I hope these four keep playing together.
check out the winery dogs! mike. billy, and richie kotzen! richie is a guitarist's guitarist, and sings like an angel!
@@dougreynolds2813 I know Kotzen. Thanks!
These guys can play anything that comes to mind without hesitation. The best of the best! They influence each other to play better! Great performance!
My goodness... that guitarist frickin jams!! OMG!!
MacAlpine is my second favorite guitarist of all time next to Shawn Lane. Billy Sheehan has been very influential to me and will always be my favorite bassist. Acid Rain is also one of the best instrumentals in recent history.
This was overwhelmingly awesome. I can die happy now.

Just heard from Bunny Brunel, who said Tony's up and playing, so he's on the slow mend!
Everytime I see Portnoy he is among the great musicians and having fun!!!
I saw Tony 22 years ago at the Troc in Philly. Saw him at the bar and had him sign my new born daughters picture. Love it
Wow, what a lineup, this is incredible musicianship. Tmac and Billy Sheehan ...like wow.
Best Live. I still visit this page once a month. Still the best.

LOVE THIS MASTERPIECE!!

Absolutely f'ing insane musicianship and skill. Daaaaaaamn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This has all the elements of great music with great musicians.

Love macAlpine, man I don't care what anyone says this is awesome. It seems as if Portnoy is enjoying a very comfortable throne to me,lol
Love his playing. Not feeling the tone he has gone to "lately" / post 2000ish.
Damn straight!! Look at the company of talent he has to jam with!! Unbelievable musicianship by ALL!!!
Billy Sheehan's amazing.....
豪華なメンバーだ！
みんな完全に息が合ってて楽しそう！
That's great !!!
Thumbs up! Discovering no one is indispensable in DT or LTE... except for Portnoy 😊
7/4 is my favorite time signature in the world.
見に行きました！
正直，Acid Rain が一番盛り上がってた．
ビリーやマカパインもいいけど，シェリニアンでこの曲が聴けたというのが貴重だった．
increible ese solo de MacAlpine. excelente banda
I love this performance so much!!!
Nice nod to Al Di Meola near the end of the song. Just a bit of "Race With the Devil on a Spanish Highway" at the end of Tony and Sheehan's solo.
First heard MacAlpine playing keyboards on Vinnie Moore's Mind's Eye, multi talented individual!
Just a bunch of guys hanging around the local barbershop, having a conversation in music.
They're all fun to listen to, have something to contribute individually and as a group, and no one needs to have the last word.
They could do this at a Ted Talk and teach a few people some things.
HOLY SHIT... A crowd that can clap in-tempo. Something you DO NOT see in the U.S. ever. Especially at a country performance.
2024 this will never get old!!! Pure Mastery!!!
A better DT than DT.
An actual living being playing bass,
NO SINGER,
8 string-shred maestro that's not an egomaniac,
and a key wizard that isnt boring.
I will believe you if it was Yngwie Malmsteen in Dream Theater...but is the Super down to Earth Brilliant John Petrucci....Not an egomaniac

Mike Portnoy created the OLD SCHOOL DREAM THEATER LINE UP
Sheehan right hand is so unreal, damn
Seeing Sheehan play solo - distortion/bass: makes me think of Cliff Burton's mastery and early departure (big hands/long fingers/similar postures) both pioneers on how to play bass
I have always thought the same thing. May Cliff rest in peace. 😊
This is so awesome. I love all of the energy on stage.
No if's or but's, these guys are shredders. MacAlpine has a much more post-bop jazz sensibility than most metallers. To some ears this may not "rock as hard" as the more traditional harmonies.

This should be the next Liquid Tension Experiment
yes the songs are theirs in fact! Sheehan better than Levin IMO
2 very great bass players
I love Sherinian's sound and feel too
My God! What a stellar performance on everyone's part. Wish i could have been there.
Anybody else catch the reference to Al Dimeola "Race With the Devil on a Spanish Highway" beginning at 10:28? I knew I'd heart that before.
Yeah man that’s exactly what i was saying to my self ❤nice to meet you!

ポートノイのドラムにビリーシーンのベースなんて夢共演すぎる！
マカパインも相変わらずキレっキレだし、デレクも元気そうで何よりw
全員がジャンル問わず何でも出来る超一流。
この面子で演奏出来ない曲は無いな。
The first part when Sheehan begins his line, gives me so much feeling about something a cant describe, from somewhere i am not sure that ive been...
+Samuel Pinto - truly inspiring isn't it?
It is
I feel you man. It's the same with Sherinian. I feel like he's stating "this is how the song was meant to be played" through his fingers.
"If you think, you stink!" that's what Sheehan has said and been standing by throughout his amazing career. That's how. :)
I feel strange watching this clip with all the players involved, but honestly think each player did great work on these tracks! I think MacAlpine is pretty stunning as a guitarist.
he did pretty good i think, but he kinda screwed up the intro to acid rain, no1's like pretucci imo
same feel Mike miss so much DT...
***** why wouldnt he?
Tony Mcalpine just incredible in his performance...awesome
the best of DT without the whiny singer.
what am amazing guitarist.
***** Sounds like something you would know about.
***** Too bad you're not as good as MP. Sounds like a little jealousy or your "kit" is too small. lol
***** Odd. MP has been with DT for 25 years. Still a hint of jealosy. You should have auditioned for the band after MP left.
***** Your stupid remarks mixed with unwarranted hate shows us who you are which he was spot on to begin with. A tip that most of you jealous guys don't seem to grasp, if you spent half the time working on your ability to play as you do crying about someone better than you, you might actually be something. But people like you are pretty damn stupid so I doubt it will happen enjoy being nobody.
If you haven't completely lost your hearing yet, then you should know that Images and words, Awake and Change of seasons have good vocals
let's enjoy what they play, don't argue over who gets the best and don't compare because everything has a characteristic each
i’m 12 and i love this song LMAO
Absolutely love that this is played on a 4 string bass. And no outfit changes during songs from Sherinian. Tsk tsk
T-Mac is literally the most underrated guitarist ever sometines I wonder he is not even been called by Satriani once for a G3 tour.
Sheehan is always being the craziest bassist ever surpassing Levin and Myung both I must say
Portnoy was literally on fire leading the whole group since both of them are his compositions
The man who steal the show was Derek, OMG controlling four keyboards together with that god speed like Rudess and tuning some weirdest sounds ever like what Steve Vai do with his guitar
I think Tony likes playing piano too much honestly. That's a lot of touring. Not sure if Tony has ever toured like that!
Masters greetings from chile and excellent...
Fucking insane, love MacAlpine's haunting tone since forever. I just cannot believe people can be this good.
T-Mac is an animal!!!! Very underrated, unfortunately. The guy is phenominal!

Exactly so
Depending with who you speak with. His a session monster and had enourmous friendship with all the greatest. I think he is playing with Simon Philips and Protocol last time i checked.....👀
@@simonbackwash Protocol's current guitarist (for the Protocol V album & tour) is Alex Sill, prior to Alex it was Greg Howe on Protocol IV
underrated by who?
Oğlum bu nasıl bir manyaklık, nasıl bir aşmış enstruman tekniği, uyum, senkron, lezzetli progresiflik. İnanılmaz.
Portnoy: "fuck off James Labrie, I don't need you"
BEHAVE MISTER, show some R>E>S>P>E>C>T!!!!
as far as i know, it was Portnoy who invited Labrie after hearing the recordings he send, and they had a good relationship to each other. This is just your opinion, not Mike´s.
so true
Portnoy looks like he’s thoroughly enjoying himself here and that is truly infectious!
I only wish that John Myung's bass on recent DT records/lives is mixed like Sheehan's!
Yea! this guys make magic on The stage!! Bravo por Micke Portnoy Captain of band Congratulations!!!!
