| | | Whoa, haha. I thought this would be a Myung appreciation thread but it's a Labrie basher.  Although I do agree whole-heartedly. The only time I have heard his vocals appropriately was when they were doing covers of old Rush songs (The Necromancer) at least he was as high as Geddy was back in the day.  |

Mike Portnoy (drums) is unbelievable. Not only is he technically freakish, he is showy as hell.
LaBrie...I can't imagine anyone else being able to vocally fill those songs. Some can't stand Geddy's voice or Jon Anderson's either, but, they fit the music they play. |

On the most recent album he did alot of recording with an EBMM Stingray, unless I"m mistaken. Step in the right direction.

Years ago, I bought a Bass mag, with an article featuring Myung and they boasted a "lesson" by him...it was just a bunch of scales.
Scales I could find in like a million other books.
