I may be wrong, but the only theater listed on Curtis is the Isis, which you can’t see in this picture. Are all of the other theaters missing from the Denver listings? By the way, the Chop Suey is not a theater: http://tinyurl.com/qsgu7
I’ve gone through the Minneapolis theaters and have found that the American, Vogue and East Lake are not listed. The Vogue was at Lake and Blaisdell, the American was on Nicollet and Lake and the East Lake was on 1537 East Lake Avenue, apparently across the street from the Avalon. If I’ve failed to account for any of the three under another listing, please let me know. Otherwise, I will add them as new theaters.
So far, so good.
