It’s a very special episode of TII as we invite an INCREDIBLE young musician onto the show! His name is Michael Lascu – he just started his freshman year at THE Ohio State University and, well… let’s just say that Michael can play a little bit of guitar. Jon saw him performing with his classmates in the School Of Rock All Stars band doing Fatal Tragedy and needless to say… he was impressed enough to ask him to be on the show! We’re going to be playing some of Michael’s videos, talking to him about what makes him such a big Dream Theater and John Petrucci fan… and the chat will be grilling him with DT trivia (at his request)! He’ll then run down hisranking of the DT catalog and give us his top ten favorite DT tunes! Give him a follow on Instagram at @micuguitar! #johnpetrucci #mikeportnoy #jordanrudess #johnmyung#jameslabrie #dreamtheater #podcast #talkingintoinfinity

Let’s face it… we all know that Dream Theater is a veritable cornucopia of guitar insanity. However, some of John Petrruci’s riffs are so damned good that they rise above the rest.
