What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Search for "lunch 2.0"
2. Sort by Location

What is the expected output? 
In the Past Events group, I expect the event at "souk" to appear between
the event at "SAO ..." and the event at "SplashCast"

What do you see instead?
It appears after the event at Weiden & Kennedy.  See attached png

The problem is in event.rb in the self.search method.  At around line 281:

case order
when :score        then events_by_score
when :name, :title then events_by_score.sort_by(&:event_title_for_solr)
when :venue        then events_by_score.sort_by(&:venue_title_for_solr)
when :date         then events_by_score.sort_by(&:start_time_for_solr)
else raise ArgumentError, "Unknown order: #{order}"
end

The sorts for :name and :venue should be downcased (or upcased), e.g.: 

when :name, :title then events_by_score.sort_by{|x|
x.event_title_for_solr.downcase}
when :venue        then events_by_score.sort_by{|x|
x.venue_title_for_solr.downcase}
