No Smoking at the Club??

After seeing a staff member loudly berating a fan about smoking (after the APC Sat 8/2 show), I noticed a NO SMOKING laser-printed sign at each of the downstairs bars.
Is this new policy? Is it on selected shows? Does the ban apply to certain areas? What questions am I forgetting to ask?

Some groups that perform at the club have members that are hyper sensitive to cigarette smoke. When this happens we will generally declare the club a smoke free environment with the Backbar being the only exception (as it is removed from the main performance space. It doesn't happen all that frequently even though the last two shows were no smoking. It is probably good practice for everybody though as it seems to becoming mandated throughout the country.
