keep in mind there's a difference between being a musician and being a guitarist.

there's nothing wrong with focusing on covers. i did it for about 5 years before i started playing with other people. it's a good way to develop technical chops.

as for being impressive, it can be. think of it like this, anyone can start a band and get a few shows. on the other hand, a cover band that wants to play gigs has to be able to convince a crowd that they're at least a halfway decent version of the real thing. are symphony musicians inferior because the majority of their time is spent playing other peoples music?

as for voodoo chile, it was about the 2 year mark for me as well hehe

as for more tunes (tabs shouldn't be hard to find)

jane's addiction - three days
led zeppelin - achilles last stand
eric johnson - cliffs of dover
king crimson - 21st century schizoid man
