Chords for Mike Portnoy: 'Name That Tune' on Pokemon Drum Kit

Well, well, well.
It looks like Loudwire finally read my rider.
You know, last time I was here,
they set me up with this fucking piece of shit,
Hello Kitty kit.
Hello Kitty's for amateurs.
It looks like they actually got me my Pokemon kit.
This is great.
Thank you guys.
Thank you.
Finally, I'm treated with a little respect
around here at Loudwire.
Man, a real professional kit
and double base no less.
You guys actually read the rider.
Thank you very much.
I can now actually perform like a true professional.
And I see you got the latest Pokemon series
with the black hardware.
And I noticed you have the double rack mount system.
Wait a second.
You still got the fucking orange stars.
Have you not read the rider entirely?
I noticed you had the M&Ms backstage
with the brown ones taken out. _
I'm almost satisfied.
I'll deal with the orange star because of the M&Ms,
the double base kit, the Pokemon, the black hardware.
I'll rise above only for you Loudwire.
Okay.
I'm gonna start off with in 1994,
I put out Dream Theater's Awake album
and the album began with a drum film
and for the song Six O'Clock.
So here we go.
Six O'Clock.
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _
_ [Db] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [B]
This was a song called Honor Thy Father.
So let's see if we can pull this one off. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Abm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ [Db] All right.
Not bad, not bad.
Yeah, thank you.
Thank you very much.
_ _ I really, I think these symbols are a bit of a problem though
I'm gonna need to, I usually have the blue star symbols.
_ I'm really upset that you guys gave me
the orange symbols again, but I will, here.
I think this will hopefully help things.
We'll fix this up. _
Much better.
This is definitely gonna work.
Okay. Okay.
_ So the last two years I've actually been able
to play one of the most famous drum intros of all time.
I've been touring with Twisted Sister
and they actually, one of their songs,
their most popular song ever,
has probably one of the most famous drum intros
of all time.
So let's see if we can do that here.
The problem is that song,
We're Not Gonna Take It was with a cowbell.
And of course I wouldn't expect the fine people
at Loudwire to have a budget for a cowbell, God forbid.
Here we [Ab] go.
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [N] Here we go. Sing along.
We're not gonna take it.
[Db] No, we're not [B] gonna take it.
We're not gonna take it.
[Bb] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ [N] _ _ _ [Bm] All _ [Gm] _
_ _ right, _ _ _ [Bb] _
hang in there.
I should have brought my drum tech.
But anyway, all right.
You know what?
This isn't working out with my own tunes.
Why don't we do a little name that tune
like we did last time.
You guys do a little name that tune.
All right, there's some great drum intros
from the rock and metal world.
Let's see, we'll start with an easy one.
Let's see if you can name this one. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [N] Got it? _ _
Indians by Anthrax.
Come on, Charlie Benanti.
Oh God.
That was as easy as it gets.
All right, a little deeper for this one.
You ready? _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ [B] _ _ _ You [N] got that one?
King Diamond, welcome home.
Come on, Mickey D.
You couldn't tell.
Grandma.
_ _ _ All right, I'll give you another easy one.
You ready?
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ [Gb] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
Hey, [Ab] London Hills.
Come on, that was easy.
All right, you know what?
Being I have a double bass kit,
let me try a famous double bass one.
You ready?
Here we go. _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ [N] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Yeah, Painkiller, Judas Priest, Scott Travis.
Very good. _ _ _
Let me see.
How about, _ okay, here's another good double bass one.
_ [Eb] _ _ [B] _ [N] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ [N]
Come on.
Huffer Teacher, Van Halen.
All right, well, you guys are obviously sucking.
I'm kicking ass here.
I'm making the most out of a Pokemon kit.
I mean, a Pokemon kit.
You can't even name a fucking Van Halen song, geez.
All right, well, I right now am going
to attempt the impossible, okay?
Right here on Loudwire, I am going to play
the world famous Dave Lombardo drum break
in the middle of Angel of Death, okay? _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ [Ab] Angel of Death.
_ C'mon, dude, I'll give you everything you [N] need.
Oh my god, Angel of Death.
_ _ Angel of Death. _ _ _
_ That's it.
I quit. _ _
