30 Seconds to Mars Fans enjoy VyRT Experience
April 30, 2012
On Friday 27 April, at 11pm UK time, alternative electronic rock band, Thirty Seconds to Mars, walked where no man (or band) has walked before on the Virtual networking scene.
Fans all over the world were treated to a unique Virtual Social Experience with the band, streamed live from the studio where the magic happens, also known as “The Hive”.
Jared, Shannon and Tomo treated fans to tasters of new material off the forthcoming album, special acoustic performances of their most famous tracks including Kings and Queens, Hurricane and Closer to The Edge, and even a cookery lesson in vegan pancakes.
Jared and the editing team showed the cameras exclusive clips on their live tour film, and Artifact, a production outlining the battle many artists have today with record labels.
After a shaky start, the VyRT was soon well under way, with Jared and co. corresponding with fans via Twitter and the official chat rooms. A very exciting experience indeed.
As the event drew to a close, two fans, who had won the opportunity to be at The Hive during the filming of the VyRT, various different fan questions were answered, giving an insight to the history of Mars, and any exciting plans in the pipeline.
Unfortunately, as I am in promise with the band and the fellow Echelon family members (those of you who are a fan will understand), I cannot disclose any more information.
Even though we were all hanging on until about 4.30am, the VyRT was definitely something I would do again.
Truly a remarkable band.
