Why can't I meet Petrucci?

MRDuCran 05-04-2006 02:39 PM

[quote=ghettoeddo]yea it's 2 guys who interpreted it their way. for the most part, it's hwo petrucci plays it though. but obviously, the solo sections are gonna have huge discrepancies.

sorry man~
if you get a better ararngement...let me know. cuz i really wanna learn it too[/quote]
Would it be too much trouble to scan the page, or change the powertab to how it is in the book? Maybe if it is actually the way John plays, it might make some sense.


My music teacher at college has studied with Petrucci before. He's not a fan of his style of playing though so it's not the best thing in the world for him.

GenuineImitation 05-04-2006 02:52 PM

I found out I wont be meeting Petrucci, but he will be signing some of my stuff. Im going to send my Images&Words cd jacket and the Octavarium 2005/2006 world tour program.

ghettoeddo 05-04-2006 04:50 PM

that's good enough.

he plays it too fast live for anyone to remember exactly what he played unless you recorded it. but i doubt you can get a good quality recording of it anywhere...

MRDucran, i don't have a scanner...and im not good at powertabs. but ill see what i can do. i really think the powertabs version is better, it has much less string skipping and position shifting

the MPA isn't gonna like...take me out for copying the "official" tab book right?

ghettoeddo 05-04-2006 05:23 PM

nvm i edited it. it's spot on. some parts are smoother by keeping 3 note-patterns on one string, but it's also got more rougher string-skipping parts.

give me your e-mail and ill drop it to you

[email]kirkhammettlive@hotmail.com[/email], thanks.

ghettoeddo 05-05-2006 12:14 AM

done.

you know kirk hammett has nothing on petrucci ;)

Jev 05-05-2006 01:07 AM

I think MrDucran knows that :p

Lord of Sword 05-05-2006 05:20 AM

I've got a bootleg from last Halloween where they play all of Octavarium. It's filmed from the audience and the quality isn't that great but you can see roughly where he's playing the unison, so unless it's more a problem of not knowing which strings he's playing instead of whereabout on the fretboard, I could upload that part of the video later.

Haha yeah. I created that back when Metallica were my life, and I didn't have an emila at the time. Petrucci's chops are incredible. Thanks for the tab, I'll check it out and give it a shot!

That'd be cool, cheers.

Ollie fails at teh italics.

But brilliant lyrics.

Lord of Sword 05-05-2006 01:07 PM

Here's the Never Enough video, if anyone wants the whole bootleg (Rome 2005) you can get it from dimedozen.org, as long as you're registered at the site

great song.

great ALBUM.

Jev 05-05-2006 04:51 PM

It's been so long since I listened to 8v. I need to borrow it off someone.

GenuineImitation 05-05-2006 05:02 PM

Im learning the heavier part of Sac. Sons now.

ghettoeddo 05-05-2006 05:03 PM

yea i learned that song too :]
the only trouble is the weird whammy bar part...but you can just make that up heh.

the heavy riff withj the pinch harmonics is SEXY i love playing it

Rattlehead 05-06-2006 05:55 AM

"all face our sacrificed sons..."
i love that song.

Lord Abortion 05-06-2006 06:04 AM

It's brilliant...I only realised a month or so ago how fantastic that song really is.


Given it's subject matter, I would have felt it meant alot to them to play it in New York.

Yeah. My dad didn't like it at first because they had a clip of the twin towers burning and he was there that day (he worked about a block away). But then I told him what the song was about, he was fine.

I realized how great the song was about 2 or 3 months ago. I always liked it, but now I love it.

Jev 05-06-2006 09:42 AM

I got my dad into DT :D.
He sings along to Take the Time.

GenuineImitation 05-06-2006 10:00 AM

I got my dad into DT also. He also likes Liquid Tension Experiment.

Jev 05-06-2006 10:02 AM

My dad doesn't like music that much to like LTE.

GenuineImitation 05-06-2006 10:08 AM

My dad likes more of the instrumental DT stuff. I guess thats why he likes LTE.

Jev 05-06-2006 10:14 AM

Yeah, my dad's the opposite. He's one of those people who listens to the singing most.
It's kinda weird for him to like DT though.

GenuineImitation 05-06-2006 10:15 AM

Weird, but cool. Maybe he will like some more of the bands that you like if you play it to him.

Jev 05-06-2006 10:18 AM

I've played him almost everything. The things he likes are Iron Maiden and certain 'Tallica songs.
I need to break out the power metal on him.

GenuineImitation 05-06-2006 10:32 AM

If he likes Maiden, Im sure he would like some power metal. Does he like megadeth?

Jev 05-06-2006 10:34 AM

Nah I don't think so. I've played them to him a few times and he doesn't seem interested. Guess it's Dave's voice.

[QUOTE=Flower Dance]Nah I don't think so. I've played them to him a few times and he doesn't seem interested. Guess it's Dave's voice.[/QUOTE]

Thats probably it. Most people don't like it at first, but it grows on most people.
