ok, here what you need to do is bend the note hold it, then pinch it, then 
release
it while pulling of to the next note.

Well about that scale running after the small D arrpeg im not sure at all, 
its
something similar, if you figure it out let me know.

in this part petrucci shows some of his good hammering technique, this is a 
fast
run wih similar technique as in metropolis 1, only this one is shorter and 
faster

attention.
