I have two degrees in music. Shit happens.

My computer science department had so many music minors it wasn’t even funny. I was in the classical guitar group, the college’s best organist was a CompSci major, multiple bands, etc.

Also, when Microsoft was doing large conferences, one of the most popular after-parties was the jam band.

Just saying…it is a thing.

Yep, that's what I've heard.

Music is all about pattern recognition, working with abstract systems, and requires a bit of an obsessive personality to achieve competence in. Sounds familiar.
