Great Experience
by Flikk on 10/6/22House of Blues Chicago - ChicagoAlthough I couldn’t stay for the entire show due to other obligations I was very pleased with my experience. The show was great, I love the experience at HOB because it’s such an intimate setting. It’s a very up close and personal experience which goes a long way when it’s an artist you love. It was a good time. The only downside is I think the purse restrictions for women is a little strict. I understand the policy to a certain extent but I’m sure many women were turned around because of it. In fact as I walked up 5 women were being turned around and their purses were very small and not much bigger than a clutch. Obviously they came with security precautions in mind but were still turned around. I was surprised because they were very small purses. The type of purse women carry when they need the basics, but need something a tad bit bigger than a clutch. Women have certain needs that may sometimes require a little more space than a clutch allows. I felt bad for them and thought it was a bit unfair. Especially when the small purses are searched by security. Women go through much more to get ready for a big night to see their favorite artist, up close and personal. But to then only get sent home because the very small purse they have, with a little strap over their shoulder, is too “big” is an unfortunate experience for all parties involved. See you next time!
