Andrea Fragoza Review of Aggie Theatre
I have to say for my very first time to the Aggie ...
I have to say for my very first time to the Aggie I expected much, much more. Especially considering a good friend of mine was performing. I arrived at the Aggie last Saturday for the NoCo hip hop event they were hosting. Before I even stepped food inside the venue I was given attitude from the women security guard at the front because I was waiting for a ticket from my friend. A simple Ms. we can t have you standing here would have been suffice, but that wasn t the case. Then, we were invited to the basement by said friend and were given a hard time about that because of the amount of people. Which, I understand, but they decided to let us in. If I would have known what it was going to cost us the rest of the night I wouldn t have gone down. As the concert started I was standing near the stage just like everyone else when I was told I needed to step back against the wall. For what reason, I have no idea! I felt like a child being told to stand by the wall. Then, one of my friends started to dance to the music and happened to pass the line that separates general audience from VIP (if you want to call it that), and was pulled aside by a different security guard, told she couldn t be going back and forth which she wasn t and continued to be scolded by this security guard and watched all night long. She was able to come back to the area, but there we were the rest of the night standing against a wall like some kids in time out. What was supposed to be a fun night, ruined. So disappointed with the staff at the Aggie. The only person who even smiled and was friendly was the bartender on the south side. I m not sure what kind of traffic you guys pull in, but I can guarantee you out of the crowd you had that night, we were not the problem. First and last time at the Aggie.
