Q: I think it's a good thing to learn as much music theory as possible, because learning theory will give you different "tools" that you can chose to use (or not use) at your disposal. But one thing I've noticed with these theory-nerds (myself included) is that they'll over think things. Sometimes a simple ii-V-I sounds better than a tritone substitution.  Sometimes a triad (or a two part harmony, or even a single note) works better than a fancy extended chord. I think I'm a much better player after years of studying and learning, but when I was first learning music I'd write songs much faster and more easily than I do now... Do you ever run into this probelm?
A: not since i was much younger
