New documentary featuring The Strokes, LCD Sound System and more to show at tiny Bristol cinema

Posted on: 17 Mar 2023

‘Meet Me In The Bathroom’ takes viewers on an immersive journey through the New York indie music scene of the early 2000s.

 

Meet Me In The Bathroom will be screened at The Cube Microplex at 5 PM on Sunday 2 April.

 

Having already been screened once in Bristol, this showing at The Cube will be a rare opportunity to catch a rockumentary that takes a deep dive into the scuzzy world of New York in the early 2000s.

 

Tickets for this one-off screening are sure to sell out so secure yours HERE.

 

 

“Meet Me in The Bathroom is the definitive music doc for all long-lost lovers of LCD Soundsystem, The Strokes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs and TV on the Radio - happily losing their edge to the amorphous TikTok globe.”

 

Inspired by Lizzy Goodman’s lauded oral history of the New York music revival: Meet Me in the Bathroom: Rebirth and Rock and Roll in New York City 2001–2011, the documentary is an archival journey through the explosive scene that birthed so many renowned artists.

 

Set against the backdrop of 9/11 and a city blissfully unaware of the seismic political, technological and cultural shift that was about to take place, this already acclaimed documentary tells the story of rock’s last great romantic era.

 

Meet Me In The Bathroom features a range of the scene’s most prominent bands, including The Strokes, LCD Soundsystem, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Interpol (who recently announced a Bristol show in June), TV On The Radio, The Moldy Peaches, The Raptures and Liars.

 

The Cube is one of Bristol’s real hidden gems: a fiercely independent cinema run by volunteers with original arts programming. In addition to films and live music, the 105-seat cinema is also used for workshops, discussions and a whole lot more. 

Meet Me In The Bathroom will be screened at The Cube Microplex at 5 PM on Sunday 2 April. Grab your tickets HERE.
