Dream Theater - Lines In The Sand (live bucharest)

[@BorjaOliva]

There are many guitar players , but for me ,nobody like John Petrucci , perfect combination between feeling , technique and master composer.

[@bifftop_johnny]

+Borja Oliva He's just one of the most versatile guitarists ever. I absolutely admire how he can go from creating a dark riff driven song like A Nightmare to Remember or the entire Train of Thought album to an incredibly emotional ballad like The Spirit Carries on, to an epic tune like Octavarium and everything in between.

[@fabrizio.marotta.1984]

True

[@tankwfw]

That's how I describe Dream Theater to people. There may be musicians who are just as technical, and there might be musicians who are better songwriters, but no one brings the two together like Dream Theater does

[@MrDim09]

The man was born and worked all his life for that sound.

[@SamHerrington14]

petrucci's solo is just unreal

[@PNL_King]

john petrucci and mike portnoy are each one of a kind

[@ivanm8131]

Labrie has a great voice in this performance. Absolutely amazing!

[@Voltaphonic]

Watched him sing The Glass Prison for the opening of this performance. Maaann.. that powerful raspy tone. The setlist was overall highly demanding for the vocal

[@bifftop_johnny]

Damn, this is one hell of a performance. I love that little piece Petrucci adds from 7:56-7:59. It just fits the song so damn well even though it's not part of the original recording

[@rohitjha8978]

+Bifftop Johnny The solo in the Studio vesion is just much better. In fact its one of the most soulful post-90s Guitar solos I've ever heard.

[@OutlawStarkiller]

Rohit Jha It's pretty much the same aside from the talk box improv thing he did

[@hsuredfish9690]

what an improvisation!!

[@Anarchy_Astonishing]

Mike Pinera anyone?

[@NickHome2005]

This was recorded by National Romanian Television TVR, the band was impressed by the warm sound recorded, a vintage sound , so close to natural,...I was there at this concert, great memories, first time seen aliens on earth!

[@crazynights14-nk4rg]

What year is it? It seems like 2004ish

[@isma2024]

this fuckin guitar solo made me cry! shit this is a great band. cant understand people that reject them because of the so-called complexity and over technicality. WTF man?! THIS IS MUSIC THIS IS ART AND THIS IS SO POWERFUL.

[@talibe801]

this Petrucci solo must be in the best 10 solos of all time.

[@MrRafa1919]

Rui Calado DEFINITELY!

[@BleakVision]

I always loved the fact that they used "Stream of Consciousness" as a song title later on. Love me some references.

[@kurdi98k]

This solo took me to a different universe. Outstanding and unreal. No words. 7:05 damn !!

[@Kimosenth]

I love how John's face at 7:54 says "Yeah, I just did that".

[@jackvai2681]

my all time favorite version of this, one of my all time favorite songs

[@matheuskaratek]

Petrucci master. The solo of this live makes me cry... Genious

[@tompramanaaccount8892]

This was their prime era for sure! Labrie voice still freaking monster, JM with RBX was my favorite bass sound making him not lost in the mix, Jordan with his Kurzweil still sound natural and not some fake sound from his iPad apps, JP with his blues influence making his solo have way more soul, and last but not least MP with my favorite drum set of his Siamese Monster (both along with his previous set before this one, Purple Monster for recording Scenes from a Memory).

[@merpinallday]

Purple monster is my fave followed by this one

[@JonathanRodriguez96]

God dammit! I love Petrucci vocals in this performance!

[@DTgirl83]

HOLY CRAAAAAAAAP THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!!! Portnoy plays this awesome live and James is singing the HAIL out of it and how the hell have I never seen this when DT has been my favorite band for 18 years?!?!?!

[@TYFLOL]

Cause u fail

[@immortalsoloist]

So true! Best version of Lines In The Sand if you ask me.

[@killingforreligion]

This is not often when you see Jordan with longer hairs than JP!

[@rogeriocfj]

João Petruquio é o número um !!!!!

[@alanjm9507]

By far the best version of this song ever!!

[@StephenLella]

Quite possibly the best song DT ever wrote

[@TheBudLife67]

I always say my three favorite bands are iron Maiden, Rush and DT, but really deep down when I hear stuff like this, I know who the masters really are. This is simply the best of the best.

[@iaimstraight]

Same here

[@DouglasdoConsorcio]

Holy shit Never have saw this version before Petrucci is a monster, as always!

[@pp66666666]

the best live version for me miss u portnoy

[@metropolis120]

One of best JP's solo ever !!

[@shlomorothstein9691]

This blew my mind. I cant listen to any other band any more. Theyre simply too good

[@spyrospets5813]

Dude, this band never ceases to amaze. Holy crap.

[@dp-yv9gz]

The only bad thing about this video, is that there is an ending. Unfortunately.

[@mitchettie1581]

That and the level it got recorded at is low. Usually my system can hang with my guitar amp, but this one no way not even close. Shame

[@kaladin783]

I wish Labrie could still sing like that

[@JoelTrujillo]

6:32 - 7:46 World domination.

[@stevequarcini4637]

Totally a Human absolutely unreal....JP is God

[@talibe801]

This solo and Holow years live at Budokan are two of Johns best ever.

[@ruicalado1859]

The simbiose between Petrucci and Portnoy in the solo,its out of this world!

[@lovemetal7092]

AWESOME SOLO

[@manovellalafrasca]

This is their Best Album!!!

[@progressifreak]

And half that solo is improv. What... the... fuck.... They haven't played this song live in the three shows I have seen them, hope they do it next time. So much talent. Way to mix feeling with shred Petrucci!

[@BourhilOthmane]

What a talk box SOLO ... what an improvisation what a band ... FUCK T__T

[@lovemetal7092]

AWESOME SONG

[@aidanriess4946]

anyone else wish they showed myung more?

[@ulysesordaz4981]

This is arguably one of Myung's flashiest songs. I agree, they should show him more on this one because his presence is highly notable in this performance.

[@MaydupNem]

myung doesn't!

[@blindcynic]

god damn, times fly. I've been to this, this is sometimes in 2002 I believe, for the Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence album tour.

[@thiagolana8857]

One of most impressive guitar solo's of ALL times. Petrucci is just a great fuck monster 😮

[@vakvanya1]

John Petrucci with a talkbox is something I was not ready to see at all

[@andreshidalgog]

Puta q hecho de menos este DT, era otra intensidad...

[@stevenr6874]

The best Dream Theater song.

[@LucasArmada]

That is the best song performed live i've ever seen!!!!

[@ArianeQube]

Please come back to Bucharest, I want to see this band again! :(

[@lnghrndude02]

Got me beat by only 2 years dtgirl83. These guys do not have a single song I dislike in any, just wish James did when day and dream unite. I just hope they do at least 1 show someday with mp back behind the kit before they all hang it up.

[@thegiginthesky]

james wasnt the vocalist in when dream and day unite, it was charlie dominici

[@marcosromao6827]

@@thegiginthesky that's why they wished James did it, I'm curious to see how that would turn out

[@thegiginthesky]

@@marcosromao6827 yeah you are right, i misread the comment or something, oh and there is a live out there with the full album + metropolis pt1, they invited charlie dominici and derek sherinian for the last song.

[@vadinhobarbosa]

they changed the song a lot, the original version is beautiful, including the solo...

[@Plaudits153]

This is such a great gift to KZbin. Thanks, hoshdt1! There is such beautiful musical development in this video and not a better song could have been chosen to do so. The lyrics are powerful, spiritual and poetic, and the band had already established a potent musical composition on which to expand... The result of which is, well, nothing less than extraordinary. "I like this video" \m/

[@10PKOR24]

Jordan looks like marco minneman lol

[@mr.thompson6613]

Jajaja lol

[@eduardodonascimentojunior8247]

KRivera OMG that's true!

[@ayusharipirala3121]

And a bit like bumblefoot as well

[@l.hbravo8828]

Jordan the goat rudess

[@brianevans3634]

That is not Jordan

[@talibe801]

they are like a soccer team that plays flawless...

[@purk12]

Me lo había estado preguntando durante algún tiempo, pero ahora ya no tengo ninguna duda acerca de ello: John Petrucci es el mejor guitarrista que pudo haber existido!!

[@guymen8]

Unfuckingbelievable performance!!! Pure Art!

[@Guitarjacker]

Got the chills...

[@PrestonTocco]

man DT was in their prime from this time through 2008 or so! all their live performances had do much energy and feel. God I love them

[@user-kl2dw3uv7e]

Yes, it is a masterpiece! John's solo such a beautiful thing! Still surprised why FII received so poor reviews. 4 songs from that albums: Lines, Trial of tears, Hell's kitchen, Peruvian skies is never bored. Great work!

[@merpinallday]

Poor reviews? That's crazy. That album has pure gold

[@Coconuthut1]

@@merpinalldaylots of people dislike it, i don’t get why. It’s a really good album.

[@mr.thompson6613]

Awesome level : Dream Theater..:-)

The solo and the melodic sections post that would be among my favourite Dream Theater moments.

I want this exact version played at my funeral.

[@chandrakusumawijaya2726]

John Petrucci is the king of guitarrr.... mantapppppp 👍

[@massimopescatori6514]

One of the best song of DT ...

[@Nickolaars]

@4:31 “Oooooooh aaaaaaaah, that’s how it always starts. Then later.. there’s running and, uhm.. screaming..”

[@Alan-zm5hw]

Spared no expense

[@thedonpetrucci]

This is my favorite Petrucci. Melodic, yet technical and with a bit of shred.... but not too much.

[@robertodiaz6673]

I really like the alternate ending to this song.

[@chaneppchannel_365]

i like intro this song

[@Essa]

The Double hits on the ride by Mike portnoy in 7:40 Rocks \m/ , just made my day

[@talibe801]

Petrucci sounds a bit like Peter Franpton in the solo...amazing, great feeling.

[@Rabid616]

HOLY SHIT THAT SOLO!

[@hydewizard]

So brutal I’m freaking love this 😂

[@tcarafi]

That intro reprise at 4:30 god damnnnnn, just like the demo.

[@TheTriumphantLoser]

Petrucci couldn't play a wrong note if he tried!

[@jonathanoliver3326]

I was introduced to these guys to late! During Pretucci’s solo break him and Portnoy were locked in!!!

[@danielzhe]

thank you very much for share this! Abraços do Brasil! =)

A litle taste of Peter Frampton.😉

[@ricakeboss]

this version is awesome

[@MarlonMartinezMatus]

Happy Birthday John Petrucci!

[@tristan8823]

Fuck that ending left me so blue-balled. Wtf guys. Awesome fucking performance aside from that however.

Original backing vocals on recording by Doug Pinnink of King's X. Never knew that until recently..lol.

[@DavideZanellaDrum]

What a performance! Love DT

[@PNL_King]

I do not care what anyone says about yngwie or Stevie Ray or maybe Eric Johnson, or all those technical masters... He is not my favorite, not even over Dave mustaine, but John petrucci is THE BEST MOST technical guitarist in the context of a band. Period. That is fact. I don't care what you say. I'm right. You're wrong if you disagree. This performance puts all arguments to rest.

[@sheebaahmad1]

watch guthrie play waves live and your view about petrucci will fade away....

[@caliskanata]

I agree

[@ProgrsvTechniq]

I hope the Dave Mustaine part was a joke lol.

[@PNL_King]

ProgrsvTechniq mustaine shreds in your dreams lol

[@azimthor5073]

Fuck dont say guthrie hahaahaha.. he and petrucci are hard to compare
