Concert at the Vogue

[Frost49]

I have looked all over the Vogue's web page and used the search function here on the forums. What is the Vogue's policy on carrying? I would guess it's a NO NO, but I can't locate anywhere stating their policy on handguns. Going to see JJ Grey on Nov. 25th. I hate to venture into the big city unarmed, especially coming out of a show late at night.

Concealed means Concealed?

I have never been searched when going into any business in B ripple. Keep it concealed and you will be fine.

Last concert I went to at the Vogue (a month or so ago), I was empty-pockets patted down, there was a wand there (don't recall if it was used on me) and purses were checked.

I have twice gone to the Vogue to see the late Ralph Stanley and there was no checking of any kind (I was armed in an appropriate manner to be in a no-mans-land like Broad Ripple after dark). I have subsequently read here that patrons going to see somewhat more uncivilized acts have experienced extensive screening. This leads me to believe that the management responds based on what sort of crowd they are expecting. Bluegrass people are predictably mellow. Certain other bands attract the lower life forms.

I believe I would plan my evening based on this.

Last time I went there I was patted down.

Been patted down the 5 or 6 times I've been. I'm not sure if it is event-specific, though. You could always carry in a shoulder rig under your shirt...

 

[Fargo]

Depends on the act, I was there this spring for a bluegrass/folk band and there were no checks of any kind.

 

[Frost49]

Thanks all. I'll just have to play it by ear it seems.

I get it that some people value attending events or going places more than being armed, but why in the world would anyone willingly submit to someone laying their hands on them to "pat down" just to attend a music performance or sporting event? That I don't get.

^^^^^ I concur!
