Counting Time Signatures W/ Mike Portnoy

On a whim of discovery, and the fact that I spent an hour in the percussion section of Guitar Center with Chris Bridge yesterday. I have found this video of Dream Theater’s Mike Portnoy explaining time signatures on one of their more difficult songs. As a progressive band, Dream Theater are constantly changing time signatures. They are in Constant Motion… If you will HAHA.

Anyways… Check this out! It’s a great audio and visual explanation of counting time sigs. Also Mike Portnoy is a bamf… LOL
