CLEARWATER BEACH, Fla., April 5, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- RockHouse Live Clearwater Beach opened the doors to its exciting new entertainment-themed restaurant, bar and venue on Friday, expecting a small turnout. It turns out they were wrong.
The Friday night official launch of the highly anticipated location, featuring music from local favorites #NoFilter, was greeted with so many fans the entire venue was packed until closing. The hundreds of patrons, including both locals and tourists, danced to live music, enjoyed indoor and outdoor seating, and created a new hometown favorite for Clearwater Beach and the Tampa Bay area.
"We were expecting a few people to come because of all the great press RockHouse Live has received for the past few months," said RockHouse founder Zach Bair, who is also CEO of VNUE (OTC: VNUE). "We knew live music would be something everybody was itching to be a part of again, after being indoors for over a year. But the turnout was unbelievable. It was just totally packed and rocking from opening until closing, from the first day and then every single day since."
Patrons posted on social media, to the sound of live music and the sight of people dancing, eating, and smiling.
"This is the first time in a year I've laughed," said one woman, who was out with her husband and friends. "I feel like I'm ten years younger!"
Judging from the happy crowds, everyone agreed.
The hot new live music and food venue is the brainchild of two music celebs, Zach Bair, CEO of VNUE, and Jock Weaver, former president of the international phenomenon Hard Rock Café International.
RockHouse Live is a first-of-its kind hybrid live & virtual entertainment-themed restaurant, venue and bar concept, offering the culture of rock 'n' roll with live music, entertainment, upscale pub food (many of which are Bair's own recipes), drinks, and "instant live" recording.
With the Pandemic winding down, Bair and Weaver see an entertainment Renaissance about to explode across the globe, with consumers of all ages starving for live music in a social setting filled with elevated American pub food plus proprietary music technology. The partners intend to rapidly grow RockHouse Live and launch other locations, targeting areas close to marinas, waterfront, and tourism hotspots.
