Re: Reading sheet music
Learn to read music. Seriously, it makes learning new stuff much easier. There are often parts of a song that are really difficult to just listen to and figure out. While many players can do it, as testified above, it's much easier if you can look at a piece of sheet music, and then try to play it. It really doesn't take that much extra time to learn to read, so why not do it? Believe me, you'll spend waaaaaay more time getting good at playing than you will getting good at reading.
***EDIT***Tom, just read the article you posted. Yea, that's what I was trying to say.
