There is a tremendous fear of music theory out there, with many musicians having the sense that music-theoretic discourse "kills the magic" of music making.

*sigh* I have run into more than my share of people who even say that learning to read music (music theory at its most basic level) is not important to their being able to make music. Trouble is, these people often have better chops that I do (not that hard to achieve).

Chops will get you gigs, but reading well will git you MORE gigs. And reading ANYTHING will get you a lot of gigs.
