    Beyond Rock Band

    via Penang iBand does "Love Story" by Taylor Swift on youtube.com

    Unlike Rock Band, you actually have to know how to play music to do what these guys are doing. Here is another group doing a Christmas concert with iPads: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DJddb73OOQ
    Or how about 1 guy putting all the pieces together himself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYo5dCeBZYA

    Garage Band comes free on Apple computers and the same 'equipment' would have cost about $20,000 and needed it's own room when I was a kid. It's just amazing what you can do these days if you have a musical or creative flare.

    Taking this one step further. Have a look at what Eric Whitacre did using technology to connect "individuals alone, together." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyLX2cke-Lw

    Rock band is fun, but making music is definitely beyond Rock Band!
