Michael Angelo and John Petrucci Performance Together?

[classicalmetal24]

So does it exist??

I would love to see what exactly would arise if JP and MAB were playing live together, maybe trading of epic improvised riffs and solos.

In my opinion these guys are the top 2. as far as musicality and shredding go, So if anyone knows of a video or something of them playing I would very much appreciate a link.

Nope.

I have yet to listen to MAB truly improvising. Don't get me wrong...he is a great player but I have never heard him improvise something and make it sound fresh and new.

 

[classicalmetal24]

Sadness....

IMHO, MAB was cool for all of 5 minutes to me; and, after seeing DT live, I really don't find JP to be all that great either....

Give me Guthrie and perhaps IA for a cool improv session.

Suppose we come from totally different worlds then when it comes to this, can't please everyone I suppose.

This would prove only one thing.... Petrucci really DOES have a Micheal Angelo Batio button on his floorboard

**if you didnt get the joke, go watch the rig review spoof**

 

[Alberto7]

I doubt that's ever happened/will happen. I just don't see them working together... those two are completely different in all respects, aside from the fact that they both can play extremely fast. But that's where similarities end. I HIGHLY doubt I'd like it anyway

According to Stephen Hawking, MAB and JP jamming together would mean the very end of human life as we know it.

Man this thread made me do it... had to be done. If you havent seen these, please watch them both lol.





Both are a must see

 

[classicalmetal24]

LOL!! Was in tears with the Yngwie thing.

 

[Alberto7]

Hahaha those are classic guitarist videos.

Their performance was underwhelming to say the least and their last few records really haven't done anything for me. Their opener (Three) stole the show from DT, BTBAM, and Opeth....no qualms about saying that.

I think the band that played before Three was even better than that, whoever they were.

Are you talking about that Prog Nation tour several years ago? That was a pretty disappointing set by Opeth, both because it was way too short for a band like Opeth, and because almost all of their songs were my least favorite song off of whichever album they came from.

I only saw there were a total of four bands on the bill.

Yep; and yes, I would agree about their set being too short. However, Three's performance blew Opeth away the other two times I've seen them (Opeth) as well. I don't know of I've ever heard a better live vocalist...
