I like Mangini and Minnemann more than the others but it is not or wasn't an easy choice for sure.

Peter Wildoer is a teacher at my school. I knew he was good but I had no clue he was good enough to do something like this.

Change the program inside... Stay in silence is a crime.

Well it's entertaining, and that's the buisiness they're in, although it seems to be geared a lot towards the Big Brother level.
Basically it's just about a drumming position in a band. We're seeing a very capable publcity machine working on all cylinders.
Quite silly, really.

Well, yeah, the album it's what I'm expecting to hear, but, just seeing Aquiles, Donati or the same mangini playing The Dance of Eternity is just a big deal... I hope the footage of the entire audition will be able somewhere, doesn't care if none of them end up in the band...

My apologies. I was mistaken as to the number of videos... Of the seven auditioned, apparently six are mentioned in the footage. Lang is not, so either he is later in the series, failed enough to have footage removed, or is the new drummer and will be shown last. Speculation on my part, but we'll see in time if the theory holds any truth.

Agree, wish they had done these videos more as a retrospective (I know it is for them) thing, and we could watch them back in full knowledge of the outcome. But, if this is way they're gonna do it, then this is the way we've got to enjoy it.

Very interesting. Mangini off the bat seems like a great fit, I'll be sure to check out the other videos.
By the way, as I've given many interviews in the past few years it's cool to see that it's pretty much the same deal when the "company" is a band - talent is important, naturally, but it's about how well people work together and how well you think the candidate is going to be a member of the team. The "best" drummer isn't necessarily the best fit.

Indeed... You have to have b*lls to take an audition like that...

I'm betting it will be Lang. Seven drummers, six videos... Lang the only one not represented. Either he choked badly, or they chose him and are working the audience.

This auditions footage stuff would make a really good addition to their next DVD, but as a method of revealing their new drummer it seems incredibility attention whore-ey.
