I think it's a great room! The Burt Neilson band was proof to me that this room can hold nice friendly events. I do think that they are harsher on some crowds than others, I will advise the security staff that the crowd is friendly, so they should be too. Here are a few points I should make: Any venue that can hold 800 people is going to have problems with people bringing in alcohol, weponds, drugs to sell etc... that is for the security of the patrons as well as the club. I've been through enough serches at Molson Ampitheatre, Phoenix, Guverment that I am not offended by the searches. Secondly it is a crime punishable to the venue if the cops bust someone smoking herb in the show, upto $10,000 ... plus the person who gets caught can also get fined.. this is obviously why they are strict... you can't smoke a cigarette indoors, why then should you be able to smoke herb? Solution.. hide your weed somewhere they won't find it, don't bring too much; a couple of pre-rolls, then go smoke outside! Voila! On another note, it was mistakenly listed in the Now magazine that this show was on April 13th, if you have any friends who may be confused, please drop them an email. see ya at the shows!!
