I've had this happen once in the 4 hours or so total that I've played with GarageBand. It's the only hard lock up I've experienced since using the iPad 2 for a week.
 
I had the same thing happen to me just the othe day. (playing with the electric guitar also) I tried holding the sleep button down with no results. So I connected it to my laptop, iTunes running, and it 'refreshed'. 32g wifi + 3g
 
here is the video i mentioned...
