but i do think you shouldn't refer to yourself as a true musician if you don't know all the aspects of your instrument.
sorry if i offended anyone or pissed off anyone. to each his own.

i dont think anybody was arguing that theory is pointless.. yes of course some of the greatest works of art came from people who knew how to compose music and put into plan musical theory
do you read what others say?
i was defending the statement that anyone who doesnt know music theory isnt a musician.. i think being a musician is about feeling music and emotion through your music. thats where the term musician actually comes from.. someone who plays music, not someone who knows every scale there is...
anyways each to their own so stop insulting others opinions
