Hi WreckingBall <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">



Bless your heart for being such a good friend!



My husband is an architect in CA and knows the federal ADA (American Disability Act) Laws. It became law in the late 90s that ALL public buildings must be ADA compliant and have wheel chair access as well as a certain amount wheelchair seating based on the size of the venue. Public buildings were given a certain number of years to become compliant by the late 90s or they would be shut down. And yes, buildings were checked. But still, as suggested before, I would definitely give them a call and verify. Or maybe check a web site for the venue, they may be shown on the seating chart.



I have a personal question that I realize you maybe can't answer, but something that affects me at concerts - I can't deal with the cigarette smoke, period. Just wondering how your friend tolerates the smoke with a low FEV1. Especially without O2. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif" border="0">



I hope everything goes well for you and you both enjoy the concert!



Your friend is very lucky indeed to have you by his side. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"></end quote></div>


Yep! I'm definitely aware of the smoking concern, being a non smoker myself. The city we are going to doesn't allow smoking in any bar or club, I go to many concerts, and he's gone to several with me in the last year and we've never encountered smoking at any of them. So we should be good there. I've checked the website, emailed them, and called them and so far nothing. I am just hoping it all works out.
