Marco never ceases to impress. He is definitely one of the most technical and musical drummers of all time!

[@poissonbenjamin6641]

What I like about Marco is that he is an 'organic' drummer, you can feel him breathing when he plays, it is so lively and alive I love it, although he is something of a machine himself, his playing is full of life.

[@tristantheuerkorn5124]

Yesyes man! It is the same with PC! :)😊

Marco is still improving, its amazing how good this dude is

The DW sounds different in the hand of Marco Mineman, incredible. Precision and highly refined technique, always good to see you play. Beautiful sound from the whole kit.

[@jehouse86]

This guy could play a set of trash can lids with a shovel and make it sound good. I find DW's like yamaha's, when they're tuned and mixed right, there's no competition, but when they're off, they're way off.

[@trueshape7306]

The most impressive drum chops I’ve ever seen. I don’t think the whole of his compositions is greater than the sum of its parts, but there is a real beauty and effortlessness to his drumming. I think it was a mistake for him not to join DreamTheater. It would have raised his profile, but I suppose he is an independent soul who doesn’t really care about that.

[@nelldogcf]

Wow, I knew Marco was a technical genius-wizard-god but that first song had some great feel and groove come the course.

And the only reason Mangini got the spot was he knew all the members, they were all friends, he had filled in before for Portnoy, and he knew all the songs. Marco is a lot more creative IMO.

Wish he was chosen for the Dream theater drummer!

There's a rumor that he was the one who turned down the offer from DT. And last year in an interview about the DT audition, Marco did say that he didn't want to be tied up with one band, he want to do more side project, but if he was gigging with DT he might not have time to do that.

[@robertbrown1778]

Not normally a huge fan of the circus act ("look how difficult this must be") element to his solos but IMO that was one of the best and most musical solos I've ever heard. There was the odd bit(PI) that didn't quite work but generally fantastic. Seems when it's done tastefully, the odd and technical stuff really adds something...who'd have thunk it? He's gone up massively in my estimation from hearing that.

[@22TINCHO22]

[@jmtschanz]

As far as my ears are concerned this kind of elusive magic storm of complex patterns fits guitar (or...) very steady paced lines greatly cf UKZ's Radiation at 3'42 and more recently Alex Anthony Faide's "Particles Of The Infinite Pt. III" (organ version)
