I personally have never heard him sing. I was wondering if anyone else has, or has had the opportunity to ask him about it.

Haha i know he's not a singer.. I have a ton of live dtb, and ABB shows, and I have never heard him sing once. I feel that he's is too musically inclined to have never even given it a shot. Although honestly his instrument and demeanor speak volumes.. Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone had an opportunity to talk to him about it or if anyone has seen an interview that covers it?

Not really an answer but on this subject:

" RM: You don't sing. Do you make up for that by the way you play guitar?

DT: At times I try to play thinking as a singer. You're playing melodies and you're not thinking about guitar parts, you're thinking about cutting through on that level. But I just never really had the desire to sing; and being married to someone who can really sing, I don't want to be the hack in the house now. "
