Restaurants I can see, but not bars. When I drink alchohol I'd like to be able to have a smoke. If they ban smoking in bars I think they'll loose a lot of business. In a restaurants I can see becasue people are going there mainly to eat and scoot. But in bars people hang out longer, drink and hang out wtiht heir friends, stay the night for the music. I think it's a rediculous idea and it should be left up to the bar to decide. That way if someone doesn't like a smoke filled environment then they could find a non smoking bar to head into for the night to hang out.

I won't deny that there are some places I play that when I get home, burning my clothes is an attractive option...but...if folks want to come out and see my band, AND want to smoke, I think they should be able to. I'm not a smoker and never have been, but to my way of thinking, telling someone they can't do something that is perfectly legal seems wrong, or at the very least rude...why should people that smoke be (essentially) banned from hearing the music...
