Providing you have the 1% of natural musical talent required, the rest is down to you.
What sort of style would you like to emulate? Oscar Peterson, Elton John, Dr John, (Mac Rebennack)?

Find the style you're most interested in and listen, a lot. Blues is definitely doable without lessons, but I often meet people that want to play more than blues, which the right teacher would help you with. I'd also recommend piano rudiments such as Hanon bk 1. This will really help your technique and strengthen your weaker 4th and 5th fingers.

As in all sorts of training, a proper regime is needed, 30 mins a day (every day) initially.

Feel free to PM me if I can be of further assistance.
Cool, thanks man! Id say I have more than 1% of musical talent... lol An Elton John style would be pretty cool to learn.. Ill do some research and see what I want to start off with and see what you think.

Hell, me and you can start our own show in Vegas!! "Markam and Ry melt your heart in the desert sky" or something like that haha
