The cradle is very lenient about it, but some place aren't. Now, if venues sold more than chips I wouldn't have this problem as I could buy it inside. People are a lot less likely to break the rules and smoke if they can go outside to do it. I've almost come to expect this from most bars. Theatres and such tend to have much nicer bathrooms.
All artists LOVE it, and think it's a great place to play.
Robbie Shaeffer told me that it was mostly because the sound is great in there. But I hate feeling like big brother is watching me. And also being forced to buy their awful and expensive food or starve. Screw the rest of the list, Rhia. We don't need no stinking lurkers.
