@@darkallyrecordings4931 yes it was respectful and honorable but musically unexciting compared to the rest of the improvised performance imo. Clearly, from other’s comments, my opinion is not favored though lol
@@Truebleux I agree. He does the tandem leads a lot with Rudess in DT. It's kind of cool to see him doing it the 1st time with ZW, but we already know JP has the chops to mirror pretty much anyone. It's nice to see JP just let loose and groove.vs trying to be overly precise and technical. I miss the old JP from the 90s when his solos were much more tasty vs the sterile technical shred-fests he does so often now.
...and don't forget one of the best best bass players in the world in Dave LaRue. There is a reason why Petrucci has Dave on every solo gig he does. This was great!
Dave is awesome. Saw him with Satriani on the Super Colossal tour and met him outside after the show. He gave me the set list that was taped to the stage floor and signed it for me right before satch came out and signed my guitar. Had a nice chat with him and he's so down to earth you would never know he was a monster bass player lol.
Simply said definitely helps you hear more of the nuance in style in the thrash metal style of Zakk unreal vibes in contrast with John's laser precise style. Where's the collaboration album already?
Love seeing Petrucci do stuff like this. When he peforms with DT he is almost restricted in his performance in the sense that he is playing particular songs and can’t really improv. When he does stuff like this he can just fucking let loose and it’s completely insane
I agree totally. Let him fly. Forget the limited structure of stupidly complex songs, just make the music that's inside. John has been restricted for way too long. He also looks much happier when playing outside DT. Solo tour was just fantastic. Last time I saw him with DT he looked miserable
Damn.... I want to see these two make at leat an EP worth of material together... make JP really change gears for a side project! I mean, I know we all reserve beard comments for ZZ Top, but damn, this is beard-core at its finest!
THIS is more interaction than I've ever seen Petrucci have from at least a dozen shows that I've seen. Zakk's energy is infectious. If only DT would have this much interplay and excitement on stage... their live shows wouldn't be so monotonous
Yeah I love Dream Theater and Petrucci, his playing is always awesome, but my only knock was always his stage presence…way too clinical. Now I don’t expect him to run around jumping and still be able to execute some technical solos, but show some life out there. It looks like here he was just able to cut loose and have fun for a change.
@@travislee9662 Couldn't agree with you more. I saw them a few weeks ago in Philly, front row, dead center, and left before the end of the show. Jordan Rudess is the only one with any 'stage presence', and LaBrie has zero personality and his voice has become shrill and annoying live. They're all so incredibly gifted as musicians but as far as a live act... not so much
@@1rblackman yeah I hate to be a person that piles on to the LaBrie hate, but yeah he’s always been the weak link of DT and live his voice can get REALLY bad. Rudess; I could watch him doing a keyboard or synthesizer demo and be entertained all day…and I play guitar lol
@@travislee9662 I'm sure they've got a lot of loyalty to LaBrie based on their history, but it's cool to think how they'd sound (and appear onstage) with Russell Allen fronting them. I'm a classically trained pianist and Keith Emerson was my hero, so as much as I wish Petrucci was more dynamic onstage, Rudess never disappoints
I feel so happy seeing this!! My day is complete!! The only part that I was suffering was when the camara guy was just recording JP during Zakk outstanding solo.
ZAKK, is in total control here, knowing when to lay back in the mix, total control, lets JOHN do his EXCELLENT ROCKIN JAMMIN, and joins in as needed, THESE GUYS ARE FUCKING LEGENDS, THEY INTERACT SO VERY WELL TOGETHER,....PEOPLE THIS IS THE VERY BEST ...................
Music is beautiful man, Metal is love, jamming and making music together, thats real love. Amazing version of the song, and you can see the brotherhood there, just read each others hands and playing the song. Thats what matters now with all the digital work on recordings, this is what its really all about. Metal Forever. \\m// \\m//
that was such a breath a fresh ass air lol!!! JP nailed the sound and goddamm they look like they are having a blast together. lets keep this colab thing going, it just might save music as we know
As others have posted below, would be an excellent album with this team writing / working together. We can only hope this is the start. I was expecting really bad audio and was surprised!
Two of the most epic beards in metal on the same stage at once?!?! Priceless
And guns, haha
get ready for a beard fight
heavy metal's answer to ZZ Top
Zakk was very fem back in the too! Check out some early pics.
@@MultiSkyman1😆
When they ask you "who plays rhythm for you?" and you can say "John Petrucci" you know you've achieved godlike status.
That’s a fact! And vice versa. ❤❤
You do realize John was playing lead basically the whole time right?
@@Gem-Ex 1. It was a joke 2. not a lot of people get JP rythm section for even just a little while
Seeing/hearing JP play Black Label Society - Wow! Never thought I’d experience this. Love it.
And his current playing style matched perfectly with Zakk's
Dang!!! This is so awesome! 🎉🎉
F*ck yes!!! 2 badass Viking lookin’ dudes killin’ it! BLS with Petrucci needs to happen!
@@gtrpimp76
That would be thoroughly awesome 😎
Dude no shit, this was so phucking cool and good!!!!!!
Legends, Beards, Muscles, Riffs, Solos & All Around Radness. Five Horns🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
🤘🏻🎸❤️🔥
Well said.😂
Justo Insane Dude!
Is Zakk on stage somewhere 365 nights a year? 🤘
One of the best
I swear I say the same thing. I guess he’ll sleep when he passes away, in 50 more years at least! Legendary icon!
Without a doubt !
Gotta take metal to the children 😂
More!
I wish Petrucci did some stuff like this. Love the energy.
You could see he really enjoyed it as well!
It's too 4/4 for him
He has a band called dream theater. They have 20 minute songs with tons of shredding
His solo albums have stuff more riff centric vs how DT is written.
This won't fulfill him musically to simple.
If this does not put a smile on your face, nothing will. Just kick ass!!! Love it.
Dude, I literally couldn't stop grinning during the dual solo.
I normally don’t like people recording at shows, but thank god somebody captured this!
The solo in unison actually sounded really badass
That part was so amazing.
That was so badass both playing the lead in Unison....chills.
That was the least exciting part of the video lol
@@Truebleux How was that the least exciting.....John either learned it or improved it.....either way it was a sign of respect and showmanship.

LaRue is a beast. I got to see him twice with the Steve Morse band.
Dook LaRue?

He gave me the set list that was taped to the stage floor and signed it for me right before satch came out and signed my guitar.

Very very true… guitarists lean on great bass players plenty, we need each other for the best music to come out for sure
@@MetalMcfly Dave is a great person!
Gotta hand it to Petrucci for putting these Guitar Universe things together. They're great.
Those two sound killer together their tones mesh perfectly together….
Simply said definitely helps you hear more of the nuance in style in the thrash metal style of Zakk unreal vibes in contrast with John's laser precise style. Where's the collaboration album already?
That dual solo was badass.
I'm sure more is to come with those two.
@@kennethm.3296hopefully
Suicide Messiah, one of my favorite tunes!!!
THAT SOUNDED SO SICK ON THE DUALING LEAD! I could hear that all day!
Two of the greatest hard rock/ metal guitar gods on the same stage? Take my money!
Petrucci sound is unbelievable ❤
A true shredder and riff maker (Petrucci) and a pure raw power and outstanding playing (Zakk) also amazing shredder too
Petrucci as a second guitar player for Zakk Wylde looks amazing !!!!! 😁
well it would probably be like Jeff loomis in arch enemy or kiko in megadeth
The combination of guitar talent, hair, and beard in this video are mind blowing.
that dueling solo was quite possibly the coolest thing ever!
Love seeing Petrucci do stuff like this. When he peforms with DT he is almost restricted in his performance in the sense that he is playing particular songs and can’t really improv. When he does stuff like this he can just fucking let loose and it’s completely insane

Beard Core. I love it. You have just invented a new genre. Good bye Gillette, I gotta rock.
Yes I want Petrucci to expand his wings more
I agree. Something different. Would be great.
@@wiggy009 Petrucci spread his wings away from this boring stuff years ago. That's why we have Dream Theater and Liquid Tension Experiment now...
BLS and John petrucci the best beard core band around.
that two shredding together takes guitar playing to a whole new level
Dave LaRue on bass and Mike Mangini behind the drums?
Exactly my friend
THIS is more interaction than I've ever seen Petrucci have from at least a dozen shows that I've seen. Zakk's energy is infectious. If only DT would have this much interplay and excitement on stage... their live shows wouldn't be so monotonous

DT is dead . Hope John gets away from the rotting corpse as soon as possible. He was so good on his solo tour.
Like two Vikings marching to war you guys slayed it! Now we need you both to do a project together!
2 of thee greatest artists on stage there.
3.. Including Dave Larue
I feel so happy seeing this!! My day is complete!! The only part that I was suffering was when the camara guy was just recording JP during Zakk outstanding solo.
Oh shit! This needs to be a regular thing! THIS is the soul of what we all want!
This is so fucking sick. Zakk and John ripping it together. God danm legends🔥🔥🔥
I would be down for a
Wylde Petrucci tour.
2 of my heros on stage,hell yeah!!
Holy crap ......they should do an Album Together and then on Tour that would be Outstandig.
The amount of talent in those two men, holy cannoli. That was insane.
Giving a like for the "holy cannoli" comment
omg what an awesome chemestry on stage! Two of my alltime favorite guitar players on stage!!! They should do a record together!
I couldn’t agree more 🤘🏻🖤
That shared solo = straight fire!
John looks like he's having a good time playing with Zakk, totally awesome!
2 great guitarist!!...sounds freaking awesome
Rock on!
I saw zakk 4 times, with Ozzy, Black Label and Pantera, is always great to see him playing and having a good time with friends
ZAKK, is in total control here, knowing when to lay back in the mix, total control, lets JOHN do his EXCELLENT ROCKIN JAMMIN, and joins in as needed, THESE GUYS ARE FUCKING LEGENDS, THEY INTERACT SO VERY WELL TOGETHER,....PEOPLE THIS IS THE VERY BEST ...................
❤️☠️❤️
Now I want an entire set of john petrucci ripping some BLS
🤘🏻
🤘🏼✨🔥💫
That would be so good.
🔥
the unison solo was so powerful - love this!
Just amazin to see 2 of the guitar gods rock it out together..i want more
I would spend a couple Grand to see this happen live! Awesome!
The best investment I’ve made so far🎸🤘🏻
Gotta love two greats, tearing it up with emotion and zero ego. Metal in its purest form.
EPIC! Petrucci is one of the influences on my guitar tone. I love Zakk and how he keeps playing guitar behind his head alive!
Both great shredders, different styles but they are legends, I never imagine something like this, it was amazing
Couldn't agree more!

Agreed
Zakk = EPIC
Pretty awesome seeing JP play in this style, sounds so aggressive. Would love to hear more!
Two masters!
I would never guess this would happen, amazingly badass
Man this was soo fun and cool to watch. We need a JP and ZW jam album!
Always loved Suicide Messiah, and seeing them play this together was pretty awesome!
They've been on stage together a bunch of times actually. This might be the first time that they've played a BLS tune on stage together though!
Two of the biggest hitters in the business!
The mighty John Petrucci and Zack
Great double lead and Petrucci is one of the very best to ever pick up a guitar, but Zakk is a beast as well!
Zakk beats John in the hair and beard category though. 😂
@@bitburg40 lol
@@bitburg40Love Zakk's beard but you do know that JP literally has his own beard oil ?
@@NaanProphet JP would market his nut cheese if he thought it had great tone and would sell. 🤪😂
@@bitburg40 I mean I don't often think about what other men do with their nut cheese but you do you.
Love it, hopefully more material comes out from this camp
These two together is amazing!! 6 string beard battle!! Gotta get John on one of them Generation Axe tours with all the other greats Zakk plays with.
Awesome, seeing them play together. Loved to have watched this live
All hail the might Zakk and John!... limitless guitar chops and glorious beard and hair \m/
As others have posted below, would be an excellent album with this team writing / working together. We can only hope this is the start. I was expecting really bad audio and was surprised!
When BLS & DT have a baby together!!!! Freak'n AWESOME!!! Thanks so much for posting!!!!
Man these men look so great on stage together with thier battle axes . This is so epic.
Love the sound JP was putting out! Sounds just like Frank Marino's sound!!
Very few people know who Frank Marino is.
I have committed to myself to having the confidence to go to Guitar Universe next year. It has to be an awesome experience!
great video, great 10min video!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Yeah that double solo was amazing.
This is HUGE man! never thought I would see the day :))
Holy shite man… That was a great version. What a line up…
This is one of the most wholesome things I have ever seen.
😍🎸🔥🤘🏻
Now imagine Zakk playing Dream Theater haha that would be amazing to see!
Beautiful
Dreams come true! Thank you
Pride and Glory.
Looks like they're all having a blast jammin' away. Good stuff!
2 baddest guitar players on the planet right now !!!! LOVE IT !!!!!!!
Wow what thing to experience. Lucky you
🎸🤘🏻
Oh my Gosh! just AMAZING.
Fun to see this! I wish I had buddies like this to jam with..
Wow, that was awesome!
that was so awesome
Wish the video quality was better because this is epicness! wow!
One of the best guitar jam videos I've seen in awhile! Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I didn't know I needed this until I saw it. Towards the end I kinda hoped to see them go from shred battle to mortal Kombat...
So sick - I love the fist bump at the end of the dual solo
I really need more of this!
Zakk y John son mis guitarristas favoritos, es un privilegio verlos juntos. 😎🤘
That was mind blowing! So cool!
wow that's awesome! john up there with the Zakk!!! \m/
The best!
Thanks for posting this
🎸🤘🏻
Awesome band performance, all of them knocked that out ... rock on 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Killing it !!!🎉
So cool to see these two mighty guitar players together 🎸🎸
