    Smoking in a small theater is generally frowned upon. Big arena? Not so much.

    I think he did in California at some of the shows at outdoor venues. He mentioned lighting up on one of the recordings I heard.

    he didn't smoke in Providence, but, in true punk rock fashion, while flailing away on the uke, he did SPIT...I saw it from halfway up in the balcony

    Nonetheless, he needs to quit. Those vocal cords can only take sooo much. Eddie, I am a doctor. Let me help you! Chantix? Nictotine replacment? Supports groups?! I want you singing until you are a 100!

    spitting comes from smoking and signing, the combination

    I remember when I smoked alot and using my lungs alot made me want to spit alot, very nasty, not that I sang, just running around did it, so I imagine it's similar

    I think he did smoke actually he came out with a cigarette, I saw the lighted tip from my seat, after the first encore.

    He seems like he doesn't smoke that often when he does shows. So when he has the time to, he lights it up probably to relieve some adrenaline :D:D

    You're both right. And I bet the 2nd guy's mom and grandmother didn't make their living as a vocalist. Ed's voice is deteriorating thanks to cigarettes. I hope it's worth it to him.
