Agree! :lol Pa para pa pa pa paaaa

I also hate those Youtube comments on Mangini screw up >:( He is human dammit!! This kind of music is not that different from sports, and I've seen sports legends like Federer or Nadal or Messi or younameit screw this big or worse on their respective careers, everyone can have an off night or period, dammit!!

On a lighter side, it's funny that Mangini made so many mistakes on a song he nailed on the audition :P. But I guess with this kind of pieces once you're off it's extremely difficult to catch up.

Not a mistake but sort of relevant to the topic:

The power kept going out during TDoE at a show during what looks like the Black Clouds tour. MP does some soloing while they try to fix it. Pretty entertaining  :lol

JLB got one of the words wrong in The Looking Glass at Wembley... I think he sang "walking through the looking glass", and as he turned around he said "or watching..."

I think JP messed up after his solo ends when coming back on the main riff on The Dark Eternal Night from Live at Luna Park, but I'm not quite sure.

Also, JP fucked up the beginning of the instrumental section of TEI quite a bit when I saw them in January.

I remember years ago in L.A. JLB messed up the lyrics to an old song and he looked embarrassed, then came back with the next line.  I forget the song though.

There's the time that wasn't a mistake, per se, but James passed out during "The Killing Hand" and woke up moments later, continuing in time.

It is how DT is handeling their mistakes that makes them so professional. They make the mistake and then continues on like nothing happened. Amateurs often struggle to recover....

 I read somewhere that the orchestra on Score has made a lot of mistakes. Iīm not a musician so I didnīt pick them up, but if someone could point them out, that would be good to know.

Off the top of my head I definitely remember some intonation issues from the Score orchestra...

He didn't pass out, he just randomly tripped on some wire and fell. If he had indeed passed out right there without a warning signal I don't think the band would have carried on with their show for the remaining two hours.

And I believe they were a bit out of synch with the band, particularly on Metropolis. But then they fixed it for the live release.
As a basic rule, if you hate it, you must solely blame Portnoy. If it's good, then you must downplay MP's contribution to the band as not being important anyway, or claim he's just lying. It's the DTF way.

Out of tune, out of sync and sloppy on some parts, but I wouldn't say a lot of mistakes. In fact, the first time I heard 6DOIT was on that DVD and I barely noticed anything, it wasn't until I familiarized better with the songs and re-heard on the CD that I started to notice the mistakes. I'm not a proper musician though, just a below-average guitar player with one year of music theory, so maybe to better trained ears it sounds worse.

They mess up in the Overture of SDOIT many times with the notes and tempo. I don't know about the rest.

I remember seeing a video on Youtube where LaBrie totally forgot the words in Pull Me Under. He stopped singing and said, "oh my god, I've only sung this like a thousand times..."

On the build up to the chorus, he said "okay, everyone help me out here, because obviously I need it!"

Yep I remember that unfortunately. It kind of killed the concert for me.

Sounds like a landing on a wrong note and then little impro solo by JP at the start of melody (Helsinki 2014, Trial of tears):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=jBW_MEyGPwE#t=471

Little off topic but I hate way some people are pointing out DT's errors like the music is not what counts but perfect execution. Not refering to this topic though.

Oh yeah, I recalled JP playing a wrong note in Trial of Tears, but I didn't remember which part it was :D

Few years back I saw Dream Theater at the Fleet Boston Pavilion where they have a very strict 11:00pm curfew.  They fine some absurd amount of money per minute past the curfew, like $20k a minute or something, right?


So Dream Theater are playing their encore and they have about 7 minutes left and they start playing Metropolis.  I don't think anyone realized the time when they started it, but Portnoy realized it about a minute into the song and he started creeping the tempo up.....by the time they were near the end of the song the entire band was in tears they were all laughing so hard and the audience was absolutely blown away, because despite the speed they played it pretty much note-perfect  :lol


I scoured youtube but couldn't find any video of it.

Yeah, that must've been hard to do.  Poor guy. :(  Although, his singing was right on the money.  Sounded great.

Barry, are you sure it was Metropolis?  I know they did that at a few shows with Pull Me Under, and I think it is on one of the fan club releases.  I had never heard of them doing that with Metropolis.

Did some checking and Metropolis wasn't an encore at either of the times they played at Fleet Boston Pavilion. Encores were Learning To Live ( https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/dream-theater/2002/fleet-pavilion-boston-ma-bd6cdf2.html ) and a cover of Won't Get Fooled Again ( https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/dream-theater/2003/fleet-pavilion-boston-ma-43d6d393.html )
i don't even like dt but i had keyboard and an ipad so what the fuck
Jordan is actually DT's tax advisor. He just happens to do their taxes on stage, that's why he has that iPad there.
