So much of this depends on what your definition of a band is. One guy who jams his butt off with a few mates may be an incredible musician, but not a great band.
I would have to say the Beatles are number one with the Grateful Dead in second. The Stones and Pink Floyd come in third.
As someone who is self-taught and has been playing for 24 years, I can tell you there have been plenty of periods when I felt the same way. I know you have heard it before but all I can say is keep playing. Noodle around a lot. If you do have a decent ear, you will recognize note progressions of songs here and there. When you find those, stop and learn the notes, Then try and play it on different parts of the neck. This will help you to connect the entire guitar instead of being trapped in a box. You should also read, "Zen Guitar, " by Philip Toshio Sudo. It is a great book of inspiration for all levels of guitar player and will help you to gain a new perspective on your music. You can find a website with more of his teachings at:
