Hello sir, I'm just commenting here because I saw you made a request for a venue merge of the Elks Hall in Los Angeles. There were actually two Elks Halls and neither of them was 'Elks Lodge 99'. I actually don't think Elks Lodge 99 ever held a concert. According to their own website they were sold and renamed Park Plaza Hotel in 1966. Before then (while they had the Lodge 99 name) they weren't open to the public. They must have kept the Elks name for the auditorium into the 80s, but the 200 or so shows that we had listed from the 1950s that got merged were from another Elks Hall located in South Central L.A. It was bought and turned into a Temple of Islam some time in the late 50s or early 60s. Unfortunately somebody accepted that request and merged them together. I unmerged the two venues, but that doesn't move them back to where they were. They all need to be moved one-by-one. If you believe any of this info is incorrect let me know. Otherwise I'm going to try and sort them out and remove the '99' venue entirely.
