It pretty much is too.

[@sombrerosteve3016]

Came here for this comment specifically. Now I can leave.

[@user-oy7gz5bf2h]

Maaan, that switch between Mike and John was really something! That plus the tone of the interviewer. The cringe is strong!

[@MuhammadRidwan-fr2xz]

😂

[@Chilliconcarnage]

Interviewer: what's the most you've ever spoken in an interview? Myung: This.

[@Stratocoaster08]

Interviewer: "Do you practice every day?" JM: *Putting Bass Back* "...Well I would be, if you'd leave me alone and stop trying to get me to speak..."

[@albertvasutoga1374]

No there's another interview..but seeinh him talk is so not John Myung

[@beaumanikoth9142]

This joke never gets old does it?

[@maximummatt73]

He was lucky Myung didn't kill him

[@Funartic]

Love that as soon as Myung starts being interviewed he puts down his bass and starts walking away. Classic Myung, he is the best.

[@pepe7drum]

Im still waiting for that colaboration with Dave Grohl

[@ATLRCFlyer]

And opens the door to the room where Jordan is noodling around to drown out the interviewer 😂

[@kevinr4092]

Mangini just loves to live

[@ifainina]

I thought that Myung was about to flee from the interview to lock himself in the attic, but Jordan was there with his loud ipad, so he has no option but cornered outside and continue the interview lol

[@kheyseed]

i feel sorry for him.

[@sumitp9385]

LOL

[@ElginLordawn]

Exactly that! You can feel his pain.

[@FanaticDrummer]

Fuking windows tablet lol

[@onlytherighteousprevail6956]

I think that was more about reaching the others' space to make the whole interview. But good try buddy.

[@mlsproject]

That's the most I've ever heard John Myung speak. Ever.

[@FreakinRican6969]

Watch his Ernie Ball strings promo. He talks more during that

[@thomashouse7906]

I really appreciate how humble the members of Dream Theater seem, considering they’re all godlike musicians

[@clearblueskys4534]

Thomas House just bc they are good at their instruments doesn’t mean they have to be dicks

[@robertfinch6602]

Lol

[@avengedsoul6661]

I love how JM heads upstairs and opens the door to drown out his speech. Even after so many years in such a prolific band, he’s still so private and shrouded in mystery.

[@ironwolg]

John Myung tried to escape 😂

[@Diegosaurio]

and he managed to keep himself in a dark spot.

[@zachbee9492]

Foiled by GeoShred!

[@zachbee9492]

[@revoabednegofathoni]

John Myung is over 50!!??? NO! He hasn't aged a day since 1995! Proof of vampires!

The best thing about this interview is..... it is so random ..... lol

[@NavidKhan84]

[@jazzangelestudia]

Mike Mangini has such a positive energy. It must be so delightful being around him ❤️

[@gravenwolf6535]

After all these years John is still such a great guy. He's so down to earth.

[@ChrisB.C.]

I've thought the same thing before! I saw him on the most recent G3 tour and, when speaking to the audience between songs, you would swear he was actually a little awkward, maybe even a bit uncomfortable! It was really striking I'm contrast to such a mind-blowing musical perfomance. He certainly didn't have the usual kind of attitude or whatever you expect from a guy who has spent most of his life playing bombastic music in massive venues all over the planet, which isn't a bad thing.

[@josed.vargas3961]

"I'm the wimpiest wimp ever, I'm scared of bugs..." I still wouldn't even think about trying to mess with him...

Why?

[@thebananaman2003]

Bro, why are you here bro

[@Anaximander29A]

Lol, Myung. I like how he is starting going up the stairs while beeing interviewed, then opening a room where music plays, then just standing besides it. This is so random. ^^

[@RevellAndRepend]

Probably wanting Jordan (who was playing there) to bail him out.

[@lasseandersen514]

It feels like the vibe of The Room

[@rustyshackelford4503]

It is clear to me that the interview is obviously candid in questions, but the flow was clearly defined. Each member was quietly minding their own devices until their turn. Myung went up the stairs to pass the relay to Jordan. I don’t think it had much to do with getting away or the vibe of the room.

[@MS-qm3ml]

Rusty Shackelford Nice analysis

[@fartvader84yearsago8]

Jordan didn't went to his prom because he was visited by a huge guy who told him "you are a wizard Jordan"

[@Nahuel_Ramos]

- The wild John Myung used teleport... But it failed!

Each time John Petrucci cracks his knuckles, there is an earthquake on the other side of the globe.

Funny how he says that's his worst habit while drinking poison

[@kennhern]

Interestingly enough, in his guitar instructional DVD, he said not to crack knuckles as it's a bad habit.

Rush's Hemisphere!!! My number one Rush album as well

[@anthonycortez9191]

Exactly. So great

[@mvunit3]

. . . was all smiles when he said that. And whenever he mentions Rush. I also KNEW Jordan would say Keith Emerson (rest in peace). :)

[@MacTaipan]

Jordan missed the chance to say the best advice he ever got was to not worry and practice very hard and be assured that things were going to turn out fine, given to him at age 20 by a strange bearded man.

[@ByronScollins]

I had the exact same thought :D

[@Cloudburzt]

That was my first thought too! I was gonna post it as a comment, but I thought I would have a look first!

[@DavidOakesMusic]

Was thinking the same thing x^D

[@fhdrummer8739]

Is it just me or is Mangini the cutest/purest member? Like he just seems so happy and joyful about his answers, it reminds me of a little kid showing his parents a coloring he did during art class. I love it.

[@cannellacane5186]

Lol wtf

[@DavidOakesMusic]

Yes Yes ! I was hoping for a video like this ! Almost makes up for no in-studio DVD for the last 5 albums.

[@Boomer.Roberts]

Man, right? I love the Systematic Chaos bonus DVD so much, I've been bitter ever since then that they didn't keep doing anything like that.

[@GuitarJesse7]

Eh, in the age of KZbin to we really need in studio DVD’s? Don’t get me wrong, I love the in studio footage and the systematic chaos video, but it seems like the delivery method will be online for most people going forward. Or am I unaware of a huge market for behind the scenes dvd sales?

[@GuillermoSmyser]

People made comments about the interviewer but I love how it’s streamlined and efficient. Most questions over time lol.

[@InnerAnimate]

this interview was life lesson , good job guys. btw that opening door sound is such a horror movie.

He wanted to!!! LOL

[@ElginLordawn]

He trapped himself!

[@lt.frankdrebin3317]

John Myung is not a conversationalist. I got to chat with him for about a half an hour at our kids' school function and it felt like I was trying to have a conversation with a 15-year-old.

@@lt.frankdrebin3317 Yeah! I met the guys after a concert. JM is a really cool guy, and believe or not, he smiled after receiving a painting from a little kid. Haha

Well, can you imagine a DT album with Dave Grohl's vocals? Didn't expect Myung to answer that. That would be nice to see.

[@solitaryg]

OR, better yet, vocals, guitar and drumming! He's great at all 3.

[@ScottAndersonYT]

He’s really annoying so absolutely would not want to ever hear that.

[@MyRealName]

@@solitaryg are you drunk?

[@solitaryg]

@@MyRealName No. I'm just open to the fact that musically, he is good at what he does and so are the guys in DT, so together they could make cool music. So many fans of this type of music are hell bent on having it their way or not. I am first a musician, so musically, it would be cool, probably, really cool. As with everything, this is my opinion. You are entitled to yours and we are supposed to be okay with our opinions being opposite to each other.

Great walkthru and questions. Love to see that the masters of Prog (RUSH) got 2 shout outs from John P and John M for Rush - Hemispheres and Geddy Lee!! RUSH was the band that started it all for me and was my fave prog rock band. I started learning guitar because of Alex Lifeson. Now DT is my fave prog band. And because of Rush and DT my music collection has just exploded over the years. I listed to metal, jazs, blues, rock, prog, etc. Hey that big clock you guys have in that kitchenette is the EXACT same one we have here in our living room! haahhhaah Keep it up. cant wait for the new CD and to see you live here in So. Cal coming up soon...... long live DT and prog!!!

[@edwardx.winston5744]

Hemispheres!! YES!!!

[@hjubris]

I don't think the interviewer is "dead inside" or "not care about the band". I think he's just professional - he asks the questions that are on the sheet, it's his job. You can hear his laugh after some of the members' answers.
