Mike Mangini Drum Cam Live

[@stephenm.1988]

Thank you Mike Mangini for all these years. You did an excellent job in the band. We wish you all the best.

[@jelleepit]

The brilliance of the original is brought back to into focus by Mangini. Faithful as always showing such respect to his predecessor. Whist somehow cleverly inserting his own incredible character into the performance. Astonishing.

[@TjimmyChonga]

Shh.. we try not to mention Astonishing

[@coltonpugh9669]

@@TjimmyChonga HA! I was literally just explaining why that album was so... divisive amongst fans to my girlfriend. She seemed to love the idea of it but I'll let her hear for herself.

[@jelleepit]

@@TjimmyChonga lol. When Dream Theater met Andrew Lloyd Webber.

[@jichola]

@@coltonpugh9669 The album seemed to be a good idea... I gave it at least 20 listens back then, I still couldn't believe that I didn't like it, lol.

[@coltonpugh9669]

@@jichola I've listened to it a handful of times as well and thought the same thing. Like you said, the idea was good and we are talking about a band that is certainly capable of tackling a concept album. But I think it was too far of a departure from the qualities that make them sound like they do. It didn't have that special drive to it. I personally love Jordan's shred antics, or his "wankery" as I have heard it put, but even that was hardly present. I mean, Rush sort of had a similar concept on 2112, but they did it in what, 20 minutes?

[@popolontsing]

The accuracy is incredible

[@Toni_560]

Absolutely.and boring as hell. Just Like an clockwork

[@AntonioVictorSpada]

He's from another Planet. Hard work + talent + big heart.

[@felipesazo9970]

Phenomenal drummer, and a great person

[@n3drums]

Every note he played is immaculate.

[@kai326]

That’s the problem

[@PetePohjanniemi]

@@kai326there is no problem

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

Cleeeeeeeaaannnnn 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@NamaanXI]

the precision here is madness...absolute madness...

[@bobclark7715]

My favorite drummer from my favorite band. Thank God for MM and DT!!!

[@j.d.7208]

Same here aka the dream team 🤘

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

It was good while it lasted.

[@RickReasonnz]

These behind the kit videos are like watching a tradesman work. Great to see how Mike professionally goes about every stroke and beat. This must be invaluable footage for aspiring drummers!

[@MrTheNoradin]

Watching world glass drummers like Mangini makes me want to immediately go sit at my kit and work on things. I'm just a basement basher, I'll never be at his level but these videos do inspire me to be better even if it's just for me.

[@danblackford3389]

Very good and powerful drummer, filled with so much good stuff, Mike has to be one of the most fluid drummers on the planet

[@salvadormeridian]

Some people prefer Portnoy. Some people prefer Mangini. In the end, both shaped Dream Theatre to be the band that they are today. Salutes to Mangini for being awesome 👏

[@Behemoth66]

Glad to see Mikes Channel growing. He should be easily over 100k with all the time work and knowledge he bestows upon us

[@bostjanjaric827]

But often really good drummers that are not only on you tube don't have awfully big following. Sad but true. This kind of talent should surpas majority of drumming video channels. I notice that with Terry Bozzio's channel.

[@TypeO666]

Usually great drummers don't have much time to manage their own channels due to schedule plan, trainings, camps etc ... So they need a good manager to proceed it. Great that Mike is self-employed manager & drummer at the same time tho.

[@ericsterk9939]

What can I say... you are the master Mike. Thanks for the years by DT. We will miss you!

[@bitgeist_21]

Mike you are a legend. Thank you for all your contributions; not only to DT but also the drumming world. As I watch this video I am amazed at how clean and articulate your sticking is! It's just not normal, hahaha!! YOU ARE THE BEST!!

[@samlee2463]

Not sure how this video doesn't have a billion views. Mike, I appreciate you sir on many levels. Thanks for sharing and allowing us to watch.

[@swindle2240]

Impeccable performance as always.

[@bahritkharakor9257]

Wow..simply awesome..Mike Mangini truly the living legend..love this guy!👍

[@Jin.Yoon.]

I don't understand how a man is able to do such drumming😲 Love this guy and the band🤟

[@UPIL.INDONESIA]

Upload more....! This is interesting and I think the fans loved it, Mike!

[@BurrenSHdrums]

The last drum fill was outstanding

[@basse.r]

One of the hardest parts written by portnoy and you nailed it like a boss!!

[@davidmichaelsen9805]

Of course.Mangini can do anything

[@drunkenribeye]

Say what? Not true.

[@BastianRehak]

@@drunkenribeye what??

[@drunkenribeye]

@@BastianRehakIt’s tasty but not one of his hardest parts. Of course, anyone can disagree but come on - Dance of Eternity? Honor Thy Father? Stream of Consciousness? Definitely harder than this.

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

​@@drunkenribeye Right? He cleaned it up and elevated it into the stratosphere.

[@waynebaker2452]

Astonishing! And he makes it look so easy, like he could do it backwards.

[@laurelhardymarx]

I mean, he literally does: "Sometimes I play the album's verse hihat part with either my left or right hand"

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

I'm sure he can play it backwards 😂

[@Huntsmaestro]

What a synthesis of total precision and control with groove! Mike, you are such a magnificent musician!

[@lfeercorrea]

There's amazing, absolutely inspiring to watch you playing

[@adrowd40]

Now I can see clearly the differences between your interpretation and the interpretation of Portnoy. Really is very enjoyable..! See U in a month here in Buenos Aires dude!! 😁✌️

[@maxhowlett9661]

As a drummer, I'm so used to being the one that counts in a song live that honestly the toughest part for me here would be starting the damn song to the click. I feel like I could never personally be 'ready' for the next song when its dictated by a force out of my control. But I guess that's just another factor that makes Mr Mangini an absolute professional and a total monster behind the kit. He has it completely conquered both physically AND mentally.

[@matthijs2024]

This is just awesome!! Mike your the best drummer on earth!!

[@warren_r]

The reach from the roto-tom to the right-hand crash at 3:40 is pretty ballsy, even by Mangini's standards. Great playthrough of a classic.

[@asabovesobelow2299]

Damn!!

[@alanpartridge4681]

It's a rocket tom, not a rototom.

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

​@@alanpartridge4681 Close enough. And he was probably thinking ratA tom, which is basically the same thing.

[@derekpetersen7571]

MrMangini you are simply incredible my friend I love watching you so much wow!!! Keep them coming and I will keep being amazed your friend Derek Petersen from Pearland Texas

[@thecompetentimposter132]

I feel deeply sad when they did dirty to you. I love your poise, precision and effort in drumming. I am now turning from DT fans into your fans (10 months ago) I will support all of your work.

[@estrangeibanez3051]

Those one hand fills are crazy.

[@markvandenberg4606]
