orpheum

[pigshitpoet]

yes, what was that all about? was that a hollywood franchise of theaters?
or what? i never gave it much thought...

The Orpheum Circuit was a chain of vaudeville and movie theaters. It was founded in 1886 and operated through 1927 when it was merged into the Keith-Albee-Orpheum corporation, ultimately becoming part of the Radio-Keith-Orpheum (RKO) corporation. - wiki

i think i just learned something

Is that where RKO came from? Cool. :o
The Orpheum is the headline of the old theaters in Minneapolis. Beautiful inside, but the seats are not made for modern Minnesotans. LOL.............
