It's a very strange news : Apple has send a very short and laconic press release this early morning to inform us that the AppleExpo Keynote will not take place this year. The Paris AppleExpo '05 will normally start on September 20th at 11h00.

On this Sunday MacMusic invites you to discover, or rather to savour, a real gem. One of our members, Mr.T, and a well-known one because he is a regular forum visitor, made, on his own, a musical video of his music "A real mother fucker". As strong as Coppola and Spielberg put together, and unintentionally, Mr.T is some kind of living ad for Apple since he produces the absolute evidence that on your own with a Mac, you only need a (big) touch of talent to work wonders. So I invite you to go and watch this video in which lascivious dancers, obstinate drummer and wavy skeletons are skilfully mixed, and they're all serving Mr T.

And of course you could not imagine watching this sweet video without having a look at another real nugget : the making-of !
