    Please 3 groups at once - Bob Dylan!

    So I was going through my playlist and looking at all the covers of songs I have and realized that I have a cover of Bob Dylan's "Like A Rolling Stone" by a modern rock band called Anberlin. This cover is more suitable to the rock band format than the original version is. I don't want the harmonica charted to my guitar thanks

    Anyway here are the three groups this song could please.

    1) Bob Dylan fans - One of his songs in the game would please a lot of people, but most of his songs don't fit the instrument layout that Rock Band is based on. What better way to get his songs in the game than a cover by another band in a format suitable to Rock Band?

    2) Christian Band supporters - Every so often, a topic pops up asking for Christian rock bands to be in Rock Band. Anberlin happens to be a Christian band, but the song was not written by them so there's no argument about religious themed music being offensive.

    3) Modern Rock fans - Even more often, a topic surfaces where someone complains that the DLC as of late has been 'too classic-rock oriented' or whatever they feel the problem is. Most of them want some post '00 bands (and a lot of them just don't know what they want at all), but this would keep them happy for at least a week.


    To close out the post, here's the song that I'm talking about. Please have a listen and tell me if you think this is a good idea for Rock Band!

    Wow, this is a terrible version of a wonderful song. As a big Bob Dylan fan, I would take offense if they put this version of the song in the game.


    If there had to be a Dylan cover, it should be Me First and the Gimmie Gimmie's version of Blowin' in the Wind.

    Sorry that was horrible. If we want to put some Bob Dyland covers in the game there are much better choices.
    All Along the Watchtower- either Hendrix or DMB version would be good
    Maggies Farm- Rage Against the Machine
    Knockin on Heavens Door- Guns N Roses

    That cover made me cringe and cry.

    Bob Dylan & Covers Pack:

    1) All Along the Watchtower --- Jimi Hendrix
    2) Knockin' on Heaven's Door --- Guns N' Roses
    3) Re-recorded Like A Rolling Stone (like the Buffet songs), similar to this version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9-FbvTJJLM , and maybe add a solo.

    Ouchies.. sure he's not going to be busting out solo's out of his ass any time soon, but i'm more in favor of his music for just the feel it has.

    Try 'Stuck Inside of Mobile With the Memphis Blues Again'

    OR anything related to Bob Dylan could just stay out of the game.
