>You need to learn music theory
Is just a cope for having no talent and shit taste. Have your ever played with one of these faggots? Constantly stopping the song to say people are "out of key" and we need to be playing in 7 sus minor G semitone or some shit. Literally sucks out all the fun in the room. There's a fucking reason he's the Rhythm guitarist instead of the lead (me), because he's so obsessed with """"""ThEoRy"""""" that he doesn't know how to FEEL. I can be jamming along with the band, and lock in to the overall mood, and shred accordingly. I've never heard this ass fucker even come close to a solo or a fill or anything impressive at all.
Some of the greatest musicians of all time didn't know a god damn thing when it came to theory. For instance any of the jazz greats were improv, the Beatles didn't know theory, most metal bands didn't know theory, punk bands don't know a fucking thing about it either.
I'm probably gonna leave this shitty band anyway. They're too concerned with vocals and the other instruments they barely give me any time to let loose like I want to. Even when I do it's limited to 40 seconds to a minute. I get that everyone else wants to be heard too, but honestly, I'm the best part of any song we're working on.
