The majority who studied music in college are just like any other musician. They studied for the love of music and it is playing and composition ability by which we are all measured. There is a group of pompous elitists however who feel a degree somehow makes them better. The measure of any performer is how well liked their performances are. Sure you can slop anything out there and if you look hard enough somebody will like it. The real test is having many like your music. There are classically trained musicians out there who were also good composers. Randy Rhodes, all of Rush are the only two that come to mind. In Rock, Metal, Blues, Country, Jazz, Rap, Folk, Pop how many stars have degrees? Maybe %1 if that many. So except for Classical which is more of a preservation of music with a notable addition coming out maybe once every 20 years, what music form are musicians with degree's are even common?
