well bars always need cover bands. i have been playing for almost 3 years now and know only a few songs, 1 completely through(stair way of course). Im much more concerned with spending hours writing my own riffs, licks, phrases, etc than spending it learning someone else's song. Atleast learn the major scale. You should be able to recognize how much it is used in music. No matter how indie a band thinks they are by using "weird shaped chords", if it sounds pleasing to the ear, its most likely a slight variation of a major chord if not a major chord.
