I have to say I'm in a similar situation. I never did like the nitty gritty stuff like learning scales and theory. Every time I hear a great song on the radio it pushes me to focuse more and I slowly get better. As much as I love this site I might recommend taking lessons with an actual instructor. They can give you the personal attention that you can't get from online lessons. You have to walk before you run. Building a solid foundation is so important when learning an instrument. No one likes to practice the boring stuff, but it makes learning songs much easier. Just remember music is fun. Think about what made you pick up that guitar in the first place and let that motivate you. I too am a big SRV fan and I know I'll never sound like him, but that doesn't stop me from trying. Have fun!!!!
