perhaps he'll never make a profit of it, but if he likes it in the end that's all that matters right? freak:

I already stated that. I said you could never sell your work to a company to put it out to the rest of the world to listen to. Even if you write a pop song, there is no way in hell that you're going to go into the studio and tell the professional musicians how to play each part of the song--you are not going to go up to the drummer and show him the fills and beat; you're not going to go to the guitar player and tell him when to change chords without knowing anything about a meter. They'd look at you like you have 2 heads.

I did say however, it's fine if you want to just write some stuff for some friends or yourself. All the power to ya! But if you want to make any money/a name for yourself, you'd have to learn the 'correct' way of musical notation and theory.
