Im so happy to see this guys together again

[@ferryirawanarsyadp3s684]

SALAM 🤘 2 JARI ROCKER

[@JasonMcNamara]

Tony’s amazing, however my statement here is as a 29 year long Dream Theater fan... Hearing Petrucci, Rudess & Portnoy together again fills my soul with joy beyond words 😍

[@ZalexMusic]

I cannot relate more. It's got the same _something_ as it did at the peak of DT. Like the best of I&W/SFAM/6DOIT/LTE1&2 and Petrucci's solo albums. It's like forward-looking nostalgia. Incredible feeling.

[@earlgrey5891]

O yes indeed, feel the same way. Like DT but LTE a little more.

[@ericgelders]

LTE has a bit more of a lighter atmosphere than DT, all the while being extremely technical and indulging. IDK how they manage to get those contradictions into their music, but it IS SO GOOD!

[@147pablox]

@@ZalexMusic And you're even missing even greater albums on there, but yeah! I know the feeling.

[@Graffitiworkrob]

23-year long fan here; I feel like I'm back in like 1999. Love it.

[@VincePalamarasecretservicejfk]

I looooooooooooove these guys! Mike Portnoy, in particular, is my muse; my musical god!

[@travisseskey1229]

same here, dude!

[@ProgSnob14]

Me 3

[@ProgPena]

Its because his production ideas are better than the others, thats why recent DT albums have not been fully epic 😔

[@woodenhoe]

@@ProgPena well atleast they create 1 masterpiece with Mangini

[@ProgPena]

@@woodenhoe yeah some songs but i meant a full record 😔

[@jasongoad1084]

Seeing John and Mike together is so awesome!

[@yivanmartinez595]

When Petrucci and Portnoy unite, the result is pure magic. No one accentuates Petrucci's notes like Portnoy, real soul, real flow. And his kit just sounds SO good.

[@Stuff7164]

"If there was a market for this, we knocked it out of the park!" I'm so glad there's no market for this. I'll take my little isolated corner in the crowd, and will enjoy this, thank you.

[@omairsh8]

It's strange seeing them all in the same room after thinking I'd never see John, Mike and Jordan together again. Very cool 😊🤘🏼

[@JK-js2td]

If ole James Labrie was there, it would be quite awkward

[@147pablox]

@@JK-js2td Not that it wasn't awkward before when MP and JLB were actually in the same band, a thing that lasted almost 20 years.

[@JK-js2td]

@@147pablox true...but it would be WAY more awkward now.

[@147pablox]

@@JK-js2td First of all, it would be pointless for him to be there. But yeah.

[@JK-js2td]

@@147pablox i agree...since they only play instrumentals....but yeah

[@parsnips800]

Tony Levin. Absolute legend.

[@DanielVerberne]

So happy ... missed MP a lot and so happy that JP, JR and JM at least kept contact and relations with MP over the post-DT period ... you’re all amazing.

[@Fernanufret]

💪🏻🧔🏻🎸 💪🏻🧔🏻🥁 💪🏻👴🏻🎸 💪🏻🧙🏻🎹 Even songs made by prog legends themselves have a prog time warp effect on them!

[@robinfarstaddey1990]

Those emojis are hilarious!

[@stevesun3658]

Fern !!! I just leave your live of today it was awesome.Thanks man !

[@stevesun3658]

if you comeback to Quebec i have a quiet place for you for free .

[@ZalexMusic]

"if there ever was an improvised prog hit, it's this song." guess these dudes have never heard Universal Mind, Biaxident, or Paradigm Shift.

[@Clintamis]

You sir win best comment!

[@camkav100]

Nobody has. You aren't sure of the definition of "hit"

[@dinospumoni5611]

Yea all three of those songs are imo much more catchy, really enjoying the new record tho a nice shard of hope in a rough time

[@theoduch5051]

Nice to see you guys talk about the song !

[@golfyptsr9361]

Oh my god. They are come back together again. That's hardest to see this moment.

[@KarzGuitar]

Love this track - the guitar solos are super fun to play. The fast legato parts in the main solo make you feel like you're flying and the melodic parts at the end are awesomely soulful - reminiscent of The Best of Times' outro. Can't wait for the new album!

[@ajayghatani4753]

Eagerly waiting for the whole album 🤤🤤

[@BatmanWangChung]

Good to see everyone together shooting the breeze! Cheers fellas!

[@ironmaidenfan420]

Legends! everyone of you guys! Its great just seeing you all together again

[@maxizakkim3464]

I love how portnoy reunites to DT members+ Tony Levin

[@gldi8hr]

Just loved the couple released songs, can’t wait for the rest Sooo excited for this release❣️

[@leonmccarthy7659]

3 amazing musicians and one of the greatest Starfleet captains in history. #makeitso

[@rahulmarchande8338]

[@rly.a1638]

[@christianaquino8677]

[@stratrovarius]

[@diegodz7510]

hope to see these guys live in Europe as the world will start to be a safe place to live

[@candraadinatamahendra3157]

The Gods of old strings musician ❤️❤️😀🔥

[@smallikous]

I would give anything just to be in a corner in this room, hearing them chatting!

[@Wozner]

That`s what happens, when two bold guys join again!

[@pepetruccigp]

My favourite band I love u guys ....

[@Gorbyrev]

So excited about this!

[@apminervini]

0:13 Mike Portnoy is such a god that he changes clothes while playing drums

[@larrywong5793]

He summoned the power of Neil Peart

[@robinjones363]

Coming to the conclusion that we have benefited so much since mike left dt, he has some great projects and now 2 albums in a year with John things aren’t that bad 😄

[@jeremythornton433]

I can't wait to get this!

[@sandorivera7industriaazucarera]

I LOVE THESE GUYS!!! \m/

[@TheoPates995]

I never wanted to hang out with a group of people so much

[@selingkuhtendangkelaut9582]

The best drumer in the world Mike Portnoy

[@humbeNch]

1:34 it feels like a little awkward moment MP bringing up DT songs

[@jaspergillgannon4991]

Yeah I don't know why. Mike did write both of those songs he mentioned after all

[@sourcescience]

This song has a Spock’s Beard feeling.

[@m.guedes]

And a LOT OF BEARDS.

[@Bagusalit_official]

Love forever formation 😊

[@gretschdrums.7290]

LOVE IT!!!!!!

[@OpethianDream2112]

Damn I want to hear the fade out portion loud.

[@ericgelders]

Too much to like here: finding the count of 1, making fun of their music AND taking it serious at the same time, that Rush groove thing, and of course the Neil Peart muscle shirt Mike Portnoy wears! Best thing since this covid sh*t for me has to be LTE3!

[@realsupercopter]

will the full interview ever be released?

[@sonia55408]

The feel good song of the pandemic or as I call it "my happy place" 👑🎶🔥❤

[@JoolsGuitar]

I love this

[@opethian8512]

Where can I buy the Neil Peart jersey!? That shit is sickkk!!!!

[@samrock3071]

Great men... legends

[@claudioonatediaz8191]

I guess we will never see the whole interview :(

[@michaeloporto5202]

Are you guys ever releasing the full interview?

[@kayned47]

Mr levin's a cool dude

[@tomaburque]

Where is that confounded bridge?

[@Squirrelconga]

Pony tails on the right...Baldies on the left!

[@mikyc.6215]

♥️♥️🤘♥️♥️

[@driftless7134]

Does anyone else hear Rush's Superconductor in this song?

[@keithveloso2822]

Where is the full interview?

[@andamoeltakdus6611]

Upin ipin in left 😁 just kidding 🙏 LTE the best music intrumental

[@ayieunboxing9438]

hahahaha😂🤣😂🤣 upin ipin

[@yannickmartin9399]

Beard or bald ? Choose tour side 😆

[@SirPraiseSun]

the wizard walks in "I CHOOSE BOTH"

[@andresjacome2112]

Where can I get that Neil Peart muscle shirt ... ?

[@beaumanikoth9142]

Where's the song that they teased everyone with?

[@jables3377]

What time sig is Petrucci playing at the beginning... at first I thought it was 3/4., then I thought 7/8... but now I'm thinking its 13/8. Help please!

[@rodrigobanados9079]

I wonder if Petrucci looks at Portnoy the same way he looks at Mangini. They have such a strong not only musical conection (so many years playing together) that is amazing, I guess It could be hard going back to rehearsals with DT after this.

[@temennyabrokz7411]

😱

[@hetschhog]

Wait. Is that a Dingwall Tony is playing? Honestly, no EBMM bass? 😁

[@hannunurminen4407]

The boys aren’t just top musicians, they’re mid-level smarter.

[@RobbieGarciakawasakininja650r]

Bald on the first couch and Bearded in the second couch 🤣😱

[@Squirrelconga]

I said bald and pony tail! Lol

[@ferryirawanarsyadp3s684]

I LIKE DREAM TEATER COMBECK

[@ederbaixista1983]

Hello Brazil

[@kadafimuamar7350]

I hope Mike Portnoy can come back to Dream Theater again...🙏🙏😊

[@dieterhenrichs]

Nice idea to release a version without drums and look how people who don't know the original would play it 😁

[@epoizparadigma8986]

2 bald men and 2 long hair man ..very stable formation group

[@jameshill5621]

All this version of Dream Theater requires is vocals...

[@Tuleinaarii]

LTE is perfect as they are.

[@mikyc.6215]

Togheter again....🤘🤘...

[@jbmw16]

release the stems! that fadeout is a disgrace

[@patricktomazdias6049]

Prefiro o Mangini

[@MegaKikeo]

sorry my comment is extremely mundane... Just couldn't help giggling thinking it was hairy men with big beards vs bald guys

[@quigon6349]

Bald and pony tail segregated I see. Lol

[@youmothershouldknow4905]

Love it that the boyz are back!
