Dream Theater - The Dance of Eternity | 'Scenes from a Memory' Drum Tribute by

[@raulirias6661]

For a drummer, if you can play this song correctly then you can play any song. Great job.

[@PanosGeoCovers]

It's one of the most complicated ones, indeed! Thanks!!!

[@minimartin4o]

Indeed, but check Animals As Leaders, Periphery etc. a whole different story

[@PanosGeoCovers]

A Periphery drum cover is coming your way in early 2017! Stay tuned! ;)

[@Damo887]

not exactly, I do believe that being able to play this gives you a leg up time signature tracking wise, but there's plenty o' song out there.

[@portnovi]

6:23 tanto tanto bravo!!!

[@PanosGeoCovers]

Grazie mille!

[@donaty27]

Nothing like a natural sounding acustic drum kit. Just the way MP loves it🤘 awesome cover!

[@PanosGeoCovers]

Thank you so much, my friend! I appreciate it!

[@jazzfusionsoul]

the most perfect version I have ever heard.

[@PanosGeoCovers]

Thank you, my friend! I really appreciate that!

[@aaamedia90]

Only top drummer can play this song correctly. And you did it, sir. The most clean and correct drum cover of this song. I really like your play.

[@PanosGeoCovers]

Thanks a lot, my friend! I appreciate it!

[@eeuwkewielinga8500]

What I like in your tributes is that you approach it like MP very well (sound, fills, close covers etc.) but you still have your own flavor to it (some other fills and riffs, but still MP alike). Great job! and nice Techniques all over.

[@PanosGeoCovers]

Thanks a lot, mate! I appreciate it! I like to stay faithful to the original, but there's no point in playing everything - down to the last note - exactly the same!

[@nicklleite]

Perfect!

[@PanosGeoCovers]

Πάνο είσαι μεγάλος φίλε! όχι μόνο κατάφερες να παίξεις τέλεια ένα απο τα πιό δύσκολα κομμάτια της Ροκ βιβιλιοθήκης, είσουν και on the pocket the whole time! Και μόνο οι ώρες εξάσκησης για να το βγάλεις, με τόσα time signature changes... well done my friend!!!

[@KoMar551]

dude - you are awesome. the best DT covers ive seen on YT. one thing i have to comment are your toms - i dont know if this is the way you mic them or the way they are tuned but there is something off with the sound.

[@PanosGeoCovers]

Thank you so much, my friend! I really appreciate it! :) No, I think I messed up the toms in the mixing! That's not how they normally sound!

[@sandhilodi2426]

Dance of eternity.. is perfectly touch 🤜👍 i never hear incorrect or fault of your performance

[@Groltak]

This song is nuts and you nailed it perfectly. Congratulations for reaching max level on the drums! ;) I can play some of the DT songs myself, but this song has some parts where I lose track, like 4:12 and the part after 5:44 How do you approach these "messy" parts? Do you actually count in your head or just memorize the feel? I usually go for the latter, but I feel like these parts require a different approach. Would you agree that this is one of the most difficult songs when it comes to odd time signatures? I mean there are songs which require more speed or have some crazy breaks which require insane precision, but this song? It's like its only purpose is to drive musicians crazy and give them nightmares! I love it :o)

[@PanosGeoCovers]

+Graniac Thank you so much, my friend! I really appreciate it! Well, these parts aren't really messy once you understand all the different time signatures and get very comfortable with them. The time signatures are really challenging to remember and play with precision and good timing, but the parts themselves are almost easy. I mean, listen to some Planet X and you'll understand what I mean! I totally agree with your last comment. This song is, in my opinion, the hardest one to learn from the Portnoy era, and that's 100% because of the time signature changes! There are other songs that require speed and have crazy breaks, like "Panic Attack", "The Glass Prison", or "The Shattered Fortress", but they are a lot more straightforward, and therefore easier to understand and start learning than this one! Thanks again for your feedback!

How many takes was this?

[@PanosGeoCovers]

I believe it was 3. One from the beginning until right before the ragtime part, the second one from there until 4.22, and the third one from there all the way to the end. I've played this song so many times that I'm used to it at this point, the whole recording took less than 30 minutes.

[@rafaelantonio6873]

Great cover. But I think your toms are sounding a little bit weird.

[@norwaydude6]

They're just a bit quiet, and they might need a bit more highs (attack)
