TEDxXavierSchool - XS iBand - Livin' on a Prayer

The audience of TEDxXavierSchool was treated to a surprise performance by the XS iBand, a group of high school students who formed a band with iPads as their main instruments. To augment the performance, music from a live electric guitar also went into the mix. Enjoy their music as they perform Jon Bon Jovi's Livin on a Prayer!

The XS iBand was formed by members of the Xavier High School Guitar Club, ranging from freshmen to juniors. Seeing the opportunity to use iPads as musical instruments, they quickly formed a group together under the tutelage of their moderators. For the iPad instruments, on guitars are John Ryan Ledesma and Karl Kopio, on drums is Paolo Buted, and on bass is Jon "Sonson" Ledesma. Denzel Tarena joins the jam with his electric guitar. The Xavier High School Guitar Club is moderated by Mark Laurence Que and the iBand is mentored by Hermel "Mel" Manahan Jr.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
