Congress Theater goes 18+

With what seems to be never-ending controversy surrounding the 86 year old Chicago landmark, the Congress Theater has chosen to make all events 18+.

This is bound to upset many, as there is a significant sized part of the EDM fan base that will no longer be able to attend. Many also wonder whether the move will really reduce any controversy as the age limit was only 17+ before.
