Q: Hey Bill, it seems odd to me that whenever someone asks about "learning music theory" you say something along the lines of "oh, just experiment with stuff" but when someone asks you about arranging songs you give a lot of specific advice.  Have you noticed this, and if so, why?
A: always experiment. i always tell people to experiment, and i very often give specific advice if i think i have it. i'm not sure if that answers your question
