Never tried it either. But then again, I think every kid out there should learn an actual instrument so they don't become tone deaf adults, and basically I think Guitar Hero is evil...

I only have one Bob Dylan CD, and it is his MTV Unplugged concert. My dad had a greatest hits album that I used to listen to from time to time and thought that it was pretty good. I've just never really taken it much further than that though.
