tony: Honestly, I haven't tried bringing my Pelican 1400 case into theaters or movies. I assume they'd tell me to leave it in the car because it could be a recording device which is prohibited.

There are a few other situations where I've had to make other arrangements for my empeg case; such as a wedding (though I probably could have claimed to be the photographer and said it was my fancy camera). Usually all the special events I have a far drive for, I can't reasonably bring my case in. I just can't think of any others right now.
