@@sslredes The way a lot of Dream Theater fans operate, you'd swear they don't know of any vocalists on the planet besides James LaBrie. What qualifies him as "amazing" right now when you also have people like Devin Townsend, Russell Allen, and Dino Jelusick in the running?
4:23MP is looking for safety and it's really bad to play MM beats, just compare it. The beat transitions are according to MP's taste and actually make the song unpleasant to the ear. and this beat is what MP fans love, even though this is a beat from MM which is simple but nice to listen to. 4.29 - Barstool Warrior - Distant Memories Live in London
Those hi hats at the beginning are the signature of Portnoy and much of the Dream Theater theater sound, but it's not something that I loved especially on this song. Makes the song sound stumbled
I implore anyone dissing the founding member of the band to post their 100% note accurate cover of mangini’s parts. And yes that means ambidextrous because that is how it was recorded.
My favorite song of all time with At wit's end the vibe the Power before the madness of COVID. This album is thematically well fitted in that place. James totally nailed It. Amazing backing vocals from John, would be amazing If Mike did too but It was awesome to see them all unbelievable
@@guitarrerist698 LaBrie defenders in 2012: he's not auto-tuned! LaBrie defenders in 2017: OK, he's auto-tuned, but it's OK because everyone does it. LaBrie defenders in 2024: it's no longer important for singing to be in tune.
I think he changed it on purpose , even night terror he did not play as the studio version . He mentioned few times in interviews that he does not like to o play the parts exactly like original every time ...
Focus on how his playing grabs each instrument in a different manner, we as people listen for things to sound the same. Otherwise, " oh, that's not the right part" which is not correct, it's how he perceives it. Mike Mangini is a student of learning material and playing almost exact, which is so admirable, because it is so difficult to play like someone else. Mike Portnoy is definitely more of a, what comes out naturally, type drummer
@@Nicktolias When a drummer forgets what to play, they’ll freeze up for a millisecond then play something very simple. You can see this happen several times with Mike Portnoy. He did much better in London.
Não gostei do começo... Aquela introdução com bumbo e baixo são únicos, Portnoy tirou isso, o resto da música tá legal, mas introdução de Barstool Warrior era marcante
I'm sure Mike didn't study this song particularly, they need to really get comfortable live again, before he delves into material he wasn't apart of writing.... they have literally played 3 shows since returning, relax❤️

I would pay a million folds to hear MP's version of Enemy Inside and The Alien.
I would add Bridges In The Sky, At Wit's End and Pale Blue Dot to this listing
So freaking cool to see Mike play Mike's parts, never thought I'd see this tbh
the game is bad and doesn't live up to expectations
It's not, "beat 3:36 This beat that MP fans like is repeated in this song and it sounds bad, 4:52." from user @kristian3459
@@surj1kal MP play MM part badly, MP has no respect at all to MM, what MP fansboy called? SOUL..... dumb..
@@kristian3459 i think you are lost my friend
MM Plays MP drum part like original MP fans called Respect
MP plays MM part with own style & fans called SOUL
Dumb & funny hahaha
Absolutely correct
who wins?
2:23 Petrucci is like "Look, he did hit the note!"
Thought the same thing
Amazing, James is amazing

@@DTArchive you gotta admit for a 61 yo, singing in the original pitch that's quite amazing just by It.
Now let's rest this debate of Mangini versus Portnoy. Both are a GOAT in their own area.

Just like MM play MP's song, he is looking for safety...
Just enjoy the show man

Lars-Portnoy robot. Mangini absolut heart and passion. He just release his RK 4 book

@@sslredes imposible MP play At wit's end like original drum part
@@frempaintwork3343 he would have to improvise so much, because Mangini is an extreme percussionist and drummer and that is Far beyond Mr Portnoy
@@sslredes improve or will make it simple?
This is JP's response when MP misses a beat 3:36 This beat that MP fans like is repeated in this song and it sounds bad, 4:52.
no that was clearly his response to the bend he was doing
Barstool Warrior mp Mode
James singing so much better here
I feel like with the last 2 or 3 albums, he's really only wrote parts he feels comfortable singing. I'm sure Images is his kryptonite lol.
Still flat about half the time.
@@KyleJPie10 who cares
@@guitarrerist698seriously how many times do you see a band and the singer isn't as good live as the album?? I'd say that it's like 66% of the time

Focus to watch and hear MP play MM . Very different style
Dang Portnoy forgetting a lot of parts here.

If only could Portnoy play this Mangini material...
@@pianistgonerogue I think they will obligate him to do It lol because John and Rudess put people to do the things as you know 😂
Put up or shut up. Let’s see your note for note transcription and cover if it’s so bad. 😂🤣😂
Keep deleting it, I said what I said. Put up or shut up if you can do better.

Portnoy makes the drums come alive. I wish more MM songs would be played in his style.
😅
Agree...
"Hey, guys. We made a mistake letting this guy back in the band..."
Not the best work by Portnoy I would say
Really subpar drum performance when you compare it to Mangini’s Distant Memories show
I'm sure Mike didn't study this song particularly, they need to really get comfortable live again, before he delves into material he wasn't apart of writing.... they have literally played 3 shows since returning, relax❤️
