Smoking in an enclosed public space with a one-night-only attraction like a touring rock show with no "alternative venue" to patronize instead is rude as fuck.
Social engineering issues aside, I don't give two shits about "smokers' rights" in instances such as these. I lived in your fucking world long enough. If I can endure an eye-stinging, throat-burning, shower-inducing environment for the sake of my music fandom for years and years on fucking end, smokers can go ahead and go without for two hours and suffer for theirs.
