I never got too into Pink Floyd, but the Beatles are heroes to anyone who likes music. Guitar influences would include the likes of Chris Cornell, Jeff Buckley, the Toadies, Radiohead, Ani DiFranco... even Alanis Morissette, Coldplay, Smashing Pumpkins, Bush, etc. The list is long. I started using <a href="http://www.last.fm/user/nathangibbs/" rel="nofollow">Last.fm</a> recently to track and share my tastes. It's a random assortment, but probably gives a sense of what I enjoy.

It sounds like you're infulenced by Pink Floyd, the Beatles and U2... I'll have to dig out my guitar .. maybe play with the thing and put it up on one of my blogs.. Enjoy!
