I wasn't talking about the 'skill' of singing.
My point is that you can be technical in music or in anything else , it makes no bearing on whether what you have to say is of any interest or not.
A handful of chords , a bit of originality & a purpose is all you need at the end of the day.
Returning to the premise of the thread..
When Pink Floyd started their purpose was to blow people's minds
The only purpose I can see in Dream Theater is to write really awful lyrics full of cliches over self indulgent twaddle and bore any non muso's to death.
