goodbyemotel - Mercury Lounge - 4D Live Music Experience - Tuesday 1st April 2014
Halfstack Magazine is a music and arts publication out of Chicago, and we had the pleasure of speaking to them following our 4D Live Music Experience at the SPIN/House of Vans party at SXSW just a few weeks ago.
We want to thank them for this fantastic review of our 4D Live Music Experience and want to direct your attention to their site.
"Upon entering Mohawk, I was handed a pair of 3D glasses and rushed into the standing room venue; goodbyemotel had just begun their set. The song "Hurricane" was blaring from the speakers and a translucent screen draped over the front of the stage while the band played passionately behind. Synchronized 3D projections flashed across the screen, blanketing the audience in a field of shooting star-like images. It was an atmospheric and mind-bending affair that blew not only my sense of sound, but also of sight in an experience unlike any other I've had the pleasure of taking part in."

Thank you Austin, Texas for an amazing SXSW. We had a blast playing our shows around the Austin inner city during this busy week of live music, art and sun! Thanks to everyone who picked up a pair of 3D Glasses and got to witness our 4D Live Music Experience at one of the venues during the week! Thanks to SPIN and House of Vans for having us.
Now off back to New York City, and next up is our return show at Mercury Lounge on April 1st.

Late last week, we got to take part of a great night with FLATT Magazine for the launch of their 6th Book the "De Niro" Isssue. It was a great night, with DJ Questlove, DJ Elle Dee and we performed our 4D Live Music Experience for the guests.
It was a big day of setting up in the beautiful the National Arts Club in New York City.
We brought out lights, 3D projections and lots of music, and had a great time getting to meet some of the guests and seeing beautiful art work made by Fabrizio Arrieta.

We travelled to Rochester in upstate NY over the weekend of January 31st to perform in an old cinema known as The Little Theatre. The day was a busy one, with an early wake-up followed by a ride to the "Little" to perform acoustically live on FOX News Rochester.
Watch the Performance here:
www.FOXROCHESTER.com/live-goodbyemotel-performance-the-little-theatre
Following us waking-up live on Rochester TV, we drove to WRUR Rochester Radio and performed an acoustic set to be heard on the air waves around the city. All the while rushing around Rochester, we would return to the Little Theatre to prepare for our 4D Live Music Experience that night.
In the afternoon, we jumped in the van, and drove across to the Record Archive where we were greeted warmly and we took the stage to do an in-store performance. Thanks for the good talks for those who we meet there!
Finally we got to the Little Theatre and premiered our 4D Live Music Experience that night to the city of Rochester. Our own Paul Amorese grew-up in the city, and was welcomed home in a big way. A show like we have never done before.
