That's awesome. they are really putting in all kinds of cool promotion to this new album (music video, these videos). It's like they know we would like unedited singles and that 3/4 of DT fans play instruments and would like to see those kinds of videos.

This definitely needs to be captioned

man 6 guitars sfor the intro, that is some sick stuff. sounds so good though

I love the way he explained how he approached the riff on Figure 2 and the different variations on how it could've been approached.

JP is such a great instructor. Hope he comes out with an instructional video after his solo album (hope his solo album is released next year since he said he had started writing songs a while back).

Dream Team · September 16, 2011, 05:05:49 AM

John Petrucci's dedication to his craft is inspiring

.

If he spent this much time working out that one riff, I can't imagine how much time he spent on the rest of the album.

TheOutlawXanadu · September 17, 2011, 10:59:21 AM

Anyone else wish that there was a video of just JP playing every song off the album? His guitar parts are so interesting when you hear them by themselves!

That Blackstar sounds awesome! What model is it?

johncal · September 17, 2011, 11:20:42 AM

He's just a damn nice guy for doing that for us.

Might be a Series 1 40 watt or HT 40 .

Can't tell for sure..

Yeah, that's what I figured. Think I might be picking one of these up in the near future.
