Yeah i took lesson from him about 10 years ago and unless you know him in person and hear him speak about drums you would never understand how truly insane he is with drumming.

As a former drummer/percussionist/jazz drummer/drum corps quad player I can see how Mike Mangini's drumkit layout makes so much sense for best playability. Playing toms left to right is difficult and prone to accidental drumstick clicks and hitting rims. His central system with multiple hi-hats no longer requires crossover-hands playing and eliminates physical, frustrating problems of playing a drumkit.
@@redsed1565 Off topic, but as the greats like Gene Krupa, Loui Bellson, Buddy Rich, Bonham, and anyone who is influenced by them knows that you give a great performance during the highlights by speeding up and doing crossover hits.
Fantastic drummer. You can tell he still loves playing drums! He'd be just as happy playing drums in his garage as he would on stage with DT. What a legend.
I remember hangin' with him back in 2000 and attending a small venue at an event in Cambridge, MA somewhere and he was not only just as incredible then as he is now, but also had a very kind and generous spirit. I still have his custom made imprinted signature Zildjian Super5A (Select Hickory) drumsticks that he used that very night. He just gave them to me. Very cool person to be around. Thank you Mike...
His technique is so polished and incredible it's ridiculous.. everything mike mangini does is just simply amazing.. his speed is unreal.. and those drum tones sound so damn crisp and tight it's crazy.. they sound like fn cannons.. Mike mangini is hands down one of the best drummers in the game today.. and that's why dream theater picked him..
I have no words to accurately describe how great this man's ability and musicality is on this instrument and he looks like he is having so much fun performing this solo. I am so inspired. Rock On Mike Mangini..................
@WhoDarestheMAN gamer They're both good man... Stop with your "decimate" thing. Maybe your not just a fan... or maybe a hater. They're both good at what they're doing in their own genres...
And yet so many folks say he plays with no feeling... I guess there is really that many folks who has zero musical talent!?!?!? Nothing BUT Feeling ! Holy Shit people ! This guy is a MONSTER !
Finally!! A sound guy who knows how to mic drums, cymbals, and mix them / balance them perfectly!! Bravo! Crystal clear! Other pro drum channels who feature lessons, demos, etc. need to take a lesson from this.
I don't think its hyperbole, to say Mangini is probably the most talented drummer of all time, when it comes to 4-way independence of his limbs. There are a few videos where he is playing 4 different independent time signatures, and then rolls through, and switches the signature on all limbs. So amazing.
Thomas Lang is right there with Mike mangini two beasts amazing phenomenal drummers.. I don't think you can define who is the best drummer it's really just a matter of opinion..
Nearly passed this solo up because I’ve seem So many recommended disappointments-but for whatever reason I clicked Only to be Amazed enough to replay and add to my playlist. Bravo 👏
If you dislike this flawless and amazing drum performance, you don’t really know about good music, with all my respect to you guys all out there, period🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🎼🎵🎶‼️
I'm with you, Vince. No disrespect to Mr. Mangini, but to me he sounds like a high speed click track on DT albums. You don't get this type of "flavor" with them.
jpmendez Amen!! All their albums with mangini would sound way better if the drums sounded like this instead of a drum machine sound like they have been
Mangini is probably the best all around drummer there is. He’s just takes everything to a higher level than everyone else. Even Thomas Lang and that guy is the master of independence.
@Paul Wilson And, when you realize there is NO backing track that's when you realize just how ahead of his time Akira Jimbo really was. Makes me want to buy a VCR: www.amazon.com/Pulse-Drum-Trigger-System-VHS/dp/B00005AQ64
I found out about Mike through Steve Vai way back when he was in his touring band. I’ve always had lots of respect for him and he’s a super nice guy which is always a plus!
Mike also set the world record for the most single-stroke roles in 60 seconds (1 minute) at 1,203 strokes. He was subsequently beat and the record is now held by Haruuun (Japan) in Musashino, Tokyo, Japan, on 24 July 2021 with 1,241 strokes. CRAAAAZY!!!! :-)
actually he said that the goggles are actually his prescription glasses in a form of a goggle so he doesn't lose his glasses when he's playing which makes sense I mean cuz he wears glasses in real life and he does wear contacts but he prepares to wear these instead. so I guess the place he gets his eyeglasses from was able to create his prescription in a form of a goggle
You know at the beginning you start underestimate Mangini because you (me) have much respect for Portnoy, but if you actually give Mangini a chance and appreciate his music, he’s actually really good, at the end I show respect for both, Portnoy has a room in my preferences who anyone else is gonna take it but tbh I really enjoy listening to Mangini
@@zanderjcarlson1973 I would probably say as fast as he gets going he's probably come close to smacking himself in the eyes before, or sticks break and splinter and might get in his eye.. anything along those lines could be the reason.. not a bad idea actually.

Mike strikes me as someone who has finally realised what it's like to play covers in an exact way. The difference in humour between his audition videos and this is so clear, he seems to be a little bitter towards DT telling him to play as they wanted. He taught expression and improvisation at Berklee and I think DT is the first gig where he had to really restrain his fills and play to the page as such. I'm not sure this is his dream gig as he thought, he regrets giving up Berklee and it's kinda obvious that Portnoy left for a similar reason.
My god he's INSANE! I hate him in dream theater, but there is no doubt that Mike Mangini is unreal musical drummer. He swung more when he played in Extreme. Watch "it's a monster" Rock Ring with Mangini
I had the pleasure of meeting him about 4 years ago when they played in So Cal. Talked to him for only about 10-12 minutes but he made sure to answer my questions and made it a memorable experience. I asked about his technique and shared an issue I was having and he went into how and when to use all muscles in the arms/forearms and wrist. Just very articulate, no ego what so ever and genuinely nice! Makes you want to go have a burger and a beer with him and pick his brain.

He even attempted to re-attach the rack tom mic during this performance.
