I started playing guitar when I was in high school, after I had started listening to guitar based music. I enjoy learning songs by ear and reading (basic) sheet music. If I get impatient trying to learn a song by ear, I use ultimate-guitar.com to read tablature posted by other users.
One of my favorite bands to listen to is Radiohead. I like the layered guitar sound of their 1997 album 'Ok Computer', here is a live recording of the last song on the album, The Tourist.
