He also played “The Dance Of Eternity”

Felipe Santos is only eleven years old, and his drumming skills have surprised the internet.

In videos posted on Facebook, Felipe plays "Metropolis Pt. 1: The Miracle and the Sleeper" and "The Dance Of Eternity," one of Dream Theater's most difficult songs to play, and it sounds incredible.

His videos were so successful that Felipe's mother says they reached Mike Portnoy, and they will soon meet him.

Due to the difficulty of performing "The Dance Of Eternity," the track was used in the selection process to choose Mike Mangini to replace Portnoy when he announced his departure in 2010.
