![]() The rest of the night, the Congress' front entrance was the stage for a huge police presence. According to an open letter written by the venue's owner, when a fight broke out in the lobby early on in the night, Moreno's private security quickly called police, who locked down the venue and wouldn't let anyone enter for a full hour while the Fire Department made sure the venue-which had only just begun to fill-wasn't over capacity. The concert was controversial: neighborhood Alderman Proco Joe Moreno apparently hired private security workers to police the venue in addition to the theater's existing security over concerns about Chief Keef. Scheduled openers included a who's who of contemporary Chicago hip-hop stars: Twista, Bo Deal, LEP Bogus Boys, King Louie and Chief Keef, the 16-year-old rapper reportedly set to work with Kanye West, were all scheduled to perform. Last Friday night at Chicago's 5000-seat Congress Theater, Meek Mill headlined a performance known as Spring Fest.
