Given that our musical tastes are a little different & our levels of ability are miles apart, I wasn't sure how this interview would go. But I needn't have worried!! John is such a cool, humble & easy to get along with guy. He was so engaging & happy to talk about whatever we wanted to in the interview. He even let his lunch go cold when two young fans saw us eating & wanted to talk to him! I know this is a long video, but take your time, stick it on the big screen, kick back with a beer & take it all in!! You'll learn something for sure. Thanks to John & to everyone involved in making this interview happen. Loved it!!

I'm glad to see someone as massively influential as John in one of these videos. Dream Theater is the first prog band I ever listened to, and while they're not my favorite, they do have some of my favorite prog songs of all time, and I never would've gotten into bands like Meshuggah, Periphery, and Mastodon without hearing DT first. On the topic of prog metal musicians... Nolly from periphery would be amazing to see a Capt. Meets of. No idea if he'd be willing to, but I think every single bass player in your audience would implode simultaneously if so.

I love this interview. I feel that John Petrucci often gets very miscast as a player. People often focus on him being this amazingly fast and technically proficient virtuoso guitarist. And don't get me wrong he is that and that's impressive enough on its own but he's more than that. He's also a player with a fantastic sense of melody and phrasing who can make the most beautiful chord progressions and some absolutely monstrous riffs. The guy is a true master of the guitar and he's also incredibly humble and comes off as a really nice cool guy.

But not by those who take their playing seriously. Among other things, his solo ideas are always unexpected, even off the wall strange, and yet thoroughly idiosyncratic at the same time, which is about the rarest thing there is with guitarists.

@KX5Kat 6 жыл бұрын

Playing fast isn't always showing off. Some people actually enjoy the energy of shred and are able to, quite easily, feel the emotion and soul from fast stuff in the same way others, usually the one who scoff at anything about 8th notes, feel emotion from the slow stuff. I think shred usually gets a bad rep because the majority of serious guitarists are... old. They want music from their era and haven't quite been sensitized to the subtleties lurking in the speed. That and that assclown Malmsteen doesn't really help.

I'm not a big Dream Theatre fan (though am a massive Rush fan and have been for well over 35 years) - but I've seen a few videos etc but what I'm most impressed with here is John Petrucci as a person - what a nice guy - humble, obviously intelligent, funny etc. Thanks for this vid, I watched in 4 or 5 chunks as quite long but I really really enjoyed it lads. Bravo.

I like how relaxed John is when he plays and even before I saw this video I had a feeling he was really a respectful and humble guy , like most of the 'Very" best guitar players seem have the humble quality, it's stunning to see these kids coming up and play some of John's music almost note for note and I'm glad John has a Mesa Boogie with his name on it .

JP is the nicest most down to earth Guitar God we have, his passion for tone and Gear and making his art perfect has been something I know he has been about since the day I saw him in Guitar World for the first time in 92 . Never get sick of hearing him play or talking about his endorsements, I have to get a Majesty and a Boogie at some point!!!!

Yes and Rush were on rock radio a lot in the 70s and 80s. It was pop for its time. Back when rock was the dominant form of pop music - in the USA, anyway.

John is so thoughtful in his approach to creating music, playing guitar, building tones, rhythms, melodies and songs. He speaks with as much thought as he plays. What an incredible gentleman. It's great to see one of the greatest guitarists of all time have such a well-grounded personality. Very refreshing.

Watching this again , can't believe its 4 years ago , love this guy , learnt alot from John Petrucci video especially how to play fast and practice properly and warm up with stretching my hands wrists and fingers , Its probably why I dont suffer from any kind of pain from my tendons and muscles and forearms , and its why I love Ibanez so much .

I had the pleasure of sitting about 10 feet away from him as he did a guitar clinic years ago and man even though most of his concepts went right over my head, i still took away so much. My favorite part was a fan asking "have you ever tried Taking your guitar knowledge and applied it to something other than music" although it kinda stumped him he managed to respond "like what, baking?" It was brilliant

I like the fact he is talking , showing settings, demonstrating everything about his equipment. To bad others didn't do more of this. He is a GREAT GUITARIST that's for damn sure. I love there long songs so much texture and all are phenomenal players. Can you imagine remembering everything that they all play for each song and concert. Just unbelievable!
