Discover where Hendrix, Nirvana, Springsteen, others once rocked
John Cook, TechFlash
Imagine if the walls of some of the country’s most famous music venues could talk. You know they’d be filled with legendary stories of sex, drugs and rock and roll.
Whrrl brings the history of rock and roll to the palm of your hand
Today, we announced a partnership with Paul Allen’s Seattle-based Experience Music Project and the iconic New York venue Max’s Kansas City to bring the history of rock and roll to Whrrl. So, what exactly does this mean?
Much of our nation’s history of rock and roll has not yet been digitized. The information is in books, manuscripts, interviews and even memories, but not accessible on the Web – much less on the mobile phone. By bringing the rich history of rock and roll to Whrrl, anyone can now say “I was here too” when they check in to locations around the country and experience this history firsthand. It’s a one of kind experience!
Here’s an example: If you visit the Experience Music Project (EMP) in Seattle, you’ll see napkins from hotels where Jimi Hendrix wrote the lyrics to some of his most famous songs. What hotel was that? Why did he write those lyrics on that occasion? What’s the story? It’s now possible you may check into that exact hotel and learn what inspired Hendrix on that day.
Whrrl is bringing over 125 stories at over 100 places to six cities around the nation, and more to come. Here’s the current societies that you may stumble upon and unlock membership:
- Grunge
- Jimi Hendrix
- Minneapolis Punk
- Prince
- LA Rock ‘n’ Roll
- LA Punk
- New York Rock ‘n’ Roll
- New York Punk
- Washington, DC Punk
- San Francisco Psychedelic Rock
- Creedence Clearwater Revival
- Bruce Springsteen
- Max’s Kansas City Society
