You're probably right, but that's whack.
If they were to insist upon "no re-entry except during intermission", there would be no ticket re-selling issues whatsoever.
I mean....a) who's going to bother to arrage selling / buying tickets for the 2nd half of a show, and b) why should anyone care?

Are the 2 of you hitting this show?
That's what I've experienced in recent years, but I've never been to MH (or Toronto. Or Canada. 
) I have no problem with "intermission only" smoking provisions. But I begin to run into problems late in Set #2 if I can't get a break!
And yes, we'll be there!
MH does have an in/out policy

I've been to both - and there is no difference in a small venue. A crowd is a crowd is a crowd.

Mainly due to the fact that 75% of the people are probably from southern ontario/western ny. I still remember HOB Orlando in '02. Half the crowd was wearing, Molson, Roots or Bledsoe jerseys...remember him

Massey Hall and Danforth Music Hall are incomparable...except for the fact that they both happen to be in Toronto
