“ I’ve discovered a way you CAN live out your fantasies…
Everybody dreams of rock–and–roll glory. But what has held us back for lo these many years? A profound lack of God–given talent. GarageBand is the great leveler, and it’s for everybody. Even if you wouldn’t know what to do with a Rickenbacker 425 solidbody if Eric Clapton came to your house and personally beat you to death with one, GarageBand still welcomes you into the Family of Jam. You might not be as talented as the Music Gods…but at leat with GarageBand, you can have as much fun making music as they do.”
