Paul wondered: >yeah for Dar :) how'd she do it? I'll bet there's a clause in her contract stating that there will be no smoking allowed in the venue during the performance. If the venue gave her any trouble about it, I'm sure her road manager pointed to that clause and threatened to walk if the venue didn't comply.

I think she's just Dar and most venues around here would do anything to get her. The non-smoking policy was announced well in advance...
