About Dream Theater

Dream Theater formed in the mid-80s under the original name, Majesty. While attending Berklee School of Music in Boston, MA, Petrucci, Myung and Portnoy were the bands founding fathers.

It’s no wonder John Petrucci has been recognized as such an excellent guitarist and the band being successful since it’s birth. Never under estimate the power of a well educated musician.

However… They did all drop out to pursue the band’s future, soooo… I guess take that one with a grain of salt?

All of the original members stayed in the band until 2010 when Portnoy left the band. Several line up changes occurred throughout that time. Mike Mangini was named the official replacement drummer in April of 2011.

I’m currently working on learning 2 Dream Theater songs right now: Endless Sacrifice and Surrounded. I have been meaning to learn Surrounded for a while, so I am happy to finally get to that.

I was also really excited to see that Endless Sacrifice is offered as a song lesson with my JamPlay membership so I had to jump on that. The song lesson is over 90 minutes! You can see all of JamPlay’s song lessons: Here.

What are your favorite Dream Theater songs? Albums? Will you be seeing them when they come around? Leave any questions or comments below. Thanks for reading!
