I heard so many people talking wonders about Dream Theater that bought Metropolis 2000: Scenes from New York DVD and honestly, tried very hard to like the music, but as I often believed a person can't change his personal tastes o matter how hard he tries.
All I found is that John Myung, Jordan Rudess and John Petrucci are very talented musicians (Especially Myung), also that Mike Portnoy is not one of my favorite drummers and that James La Brie is IMHO a terrible vocalist; but nothing else, ther music says nothing to me.
I like some good metal and early prog' metal once in a while, but I believe this guys are way overrated.
