It's great to be able to bash DT on a regular basis - keep 'em coming! Tongue

I'm more annoyed by polls about polls.

 

I don't understand why people who are sick of DT polls waste their time on participating on an obvious DT poll as this poll obviouly is.

 

As you can understand i am not sick of polls about DT else I wouldn't reply to this poll

I couldn't agree more. I love DT, and I also like talking about them, but I'm sick of seeing the DT bashers out in full force. Take away their provisions and they will shrink up into little, humble masses with nothing to talk about. But give them a DT poll and BAM!—they live to hate another day.

It's amazing how highly scrutinized DT seems to be compared to the other prog giants on this site. Definitely the scapegoats of PA. Angry



There's probably a reason for that, just a hunch

When you have a group of 5 very talented musicians(don't get me wrong, they are definitely good at their instruments) sometimes that doesn't work for a group and composing good songs.


I'm sorry. I just disagree with this. There are plenty of bands out there who can play the hell out of their instruments. Dream Theater can play the hell out of their instruments AND compose excellent songs. There's no way they'd be garnering so much attention if they weren't great songwriters in addition to their instrumental pyrotechnics.

You've just got to ask yourself: why are you here in a DT poll? Are you here to be negative to bash everything, or do you actually care about the topic in question? All the DT bashers should know this: trashing DT is perpetuating the attention towards DT that you so despise.  Nobody wants this. Give it a rest.

I am usually indifferent regarding the countless DT polls posted on this site, however, a change of pace would be nice

Hmm. Perhaps we need a Dream Theater Appreciation Thread in the Prog Lounge? DT haters will of course be prohibited from posting in it.

I love DT, They're one of my favorite Prog-Metal bands. And yes, Im sick of all these DT polls. It have gone so overboard lately that Im nearly getting pissed off everytime I hear the name Dream Theater here in the forums. Stop all these polls! At least most of them!
