Watch John Petrucci performing Mario Bros theme song

Dream Theater guitarist and founder John Petrucci appears in a new video that promotes Ernie Ball guitars as well as Nintendo’s classic video game Super Mario Bros.

It is not new the relationship of Nintendo with Rock and Heavy Metal, since several personages were baptized in honor of rock stars like Reznors, Lemmy Koopa and Wendy O. Koopa.

Even part of Rainbow’s song “A Light In The Black” was used by Nintendo.

The video begins with guitarist FamilyJules opening the door to his house and stumbling over Petrucci and his guitar ready to play.

In addition to the flourishes and improvisations that Petrucci puts on the original theme, the video ends with the two guitarists discussing the signature line of Petrucci called “Majesty” that was the original name of Dream Theater.

Rafael Polcaro: I'm a Brazilian journalist who always loved Classic Rock and Heavy Metal music. That passion inspired me to create Rock and Roll Garage over 6 years ago. Music has always been a part of my life, helping me through tough times and being a support to celebrate the good ones. When I became a journalist, I knew I wanted to write about my passions. After graduating in journalism from the Pontifical Catholic University of Minas Gerais, I pursued a postgraduate degree in digital communication at the same institution. The studies and experience in the field helped me improve the website and always bring the best of classic rock to the world! MTB: 0021377/MG
