I mean John Connor! (?) I Lie! I mean the heavyweight champion, with you: John Petrucci (backing track: Rocky music). As everyone knows, this monster of rock is the leader of an awesome band, Dream Theater. Also, I recommend listening to his soloist material, has no waste. Not much to tell of this titan of the guitar, if you want more of it, listen to their albums.
