Freestyle Love Supreme has announced on their Twitter that they are partnering with Yondr to create a phone-free experience at their shows. Patrons will put their phones in locked pouches upon entering the theatre, and will be able to unlock them when they leave.
Members of the group created a freestyle rap video explaining how the process works. Watch it below!
Listen. We know it's hard to part with your phone. But the beats that we'll be dropping are going to be so sick we don't want you to miss a single one. That's why we've teamed up Yondr to give you a phone-free experience while still being able to hold onto it for emergencies. pic.twitter.com/fu2URbJZ8f
