John Petrucci (Dream Theater, Liquid Tension Experiment)

Doc welcomes Dream Theater and Liquid Tension Experiment guitarist, John Petrucci, to the show and they talk about the key to Dream Theater's creative consistency throughout their career, their personal chemistry as a band, how he feels about their relationship with the progressive metal label and subculture, how having a hit song on MTV gave them a leg up in the 90s, keeping up as a musician with all of the advances in technical playing and technology, and what inspired his keen business mindset in branching out to branding himself with signature and licensed prouducts. This episode features the songs "Monster Zero" by Kyle Ewers and "Answering The Call" by Dream Theater.
