On 10/26/14, I saw Dave Chapelle perform at this venue. Great performance by Dave & his opening comedian. If this review was on this alone, you bet it'd be 5 stars. Its only 2 stars due to this... My experience was ruined because of the security (Event Staff) in the facility. Nothing that affected me directly, but it brings up the old addage, "Say what you mean, and mean what you say!" On the doors leading into the seating area and all over the place from what I saw, there were postings about the conduct expected while attending. Perfectly fine by me... simple rules to follow if you ask me. The very first rule (in all CAPS mind you) was "No using of cell phones DURING THE SHOW!" Apparently the management of the Orpheum deems it ok for their security (Event Staff for those who don't like the simple word) to dictate and change the posted rules to their advantage. Like I said it didn't bother me as I wasn't on my phone at the time, but for the people who wanted to get a couple of photos of themselves & friends to have for memories sake, the "Orpheum Goon Squad" had their flashlights, stern pointing fingers & radios ready to rock to eject people from the place (while others were being seated mind you). This really bothered me for the entire time I was there. Everyone there paid good money to attend, but yet we get herded in like cattle and expected to just sit there with our faces toward the stage as soon as we're seated! That was my first time attending an event at that venue, and probably my last for a very long time! Before those who my think of this as dealing with race, it does not. It covers the entire board. The 3 goons who ruined my experience and probably received their gold stars for the night were a chunky white woman with long hair & tats with glasses, a tall bald black man with a serious pot belly, and a short hispanic guy with a buzz haircut that thought his all black shirt actually slimmed his big belly. Again, my experience there was ruined for the shoddy way this venue operates its support staff!
