I don't think Dave smokes. Anyone willing to disprove my theory?

See the Video for the Fairway to Heaven golf tournament that aired on Vh-1 in either 1994 or 1995. Dave is smoking on video. Now, that's not to say he hasn't quit. But there's video evidence of him smoking.

Default Smoking

Jon says that when he's in concert he eats really well and doesn't drink since it's like training for the Olympics. I would assume that he wouldn't smoke also, especially since he has problems with allergies.

I'm biased, just want to have him around for the Next 100 Years.

Who really gives a rats ass if the band smokes or not? Can't we find something else to talk/worry about?

Have you ever watched anyone die of cancer over a long period of time?

Enough said.

Yes i have actually. And it is quite painful. But unless someone in the band is a family member or friend, who cares what they do? Talk about the music.

Default Not for the humor-impaired

Do not read if you do not have a sense of humor about this topic!

To get back to the music, the following songs mention smoking:

CADILLAC MAN

And I’ve been driving all night
Chain-smoking cigarettes and chasing tail lights
Through the smoke I see the deal of my life
And if you got ten rounds then you got a hell of a fight

RIGHT SIDE OF WRONG

We'll stop for smokes, I brought a six pack, we'll stop at lookers on the way back
Hell, we'll laugh this off, keep your fingers crossed that all goes well tonight

TOKYO ROAD

In a bar, breathing smoke
Snorting whiskey, drinking coke

BLOOD ON BLOOD

Well, Bobby was our hero
Cause he hed a fake I.D.
I got busted stealing cigarettes
And he took the rap for me

LEARNING HOW TO FALL

Now, I'm standing at your door
Me and my last cigarette

LITTLE CITY

You know I'm never alone
But I'm feeling lonely tonight
Damn, I got my last cigarette
But I ain't got not light


MY GUITAR LIES BLEEDING IN MY ARMS

Staring at the paper, I don't know what to write
I'll have my last cigarette-well, turn out the lights


NEUROTICA

She got a daily new addiction
A walking contradiction
Chain smoking cigarettes
Talking to her silhouette

SAD SONG NIGHT

Whiskey breath and cigarettes
There's smell perfume and that's as good as it gets

TAKE ME ON

In a small café all day
Staring in a cup of coffee
Time just slips away
Smoking your last cigarette, with no regret

TEMPTATION

Someday I’ll seek forgiveness
For the sweet smell of her breath
She touched my hand and asked for a check
I put out my cigarette


CAPTAIN CRASH AND THE BEAUTY QUEEN FROM MARS

They're drunk on love as you can get
Getting high on lust and cigarettes
Living life with no regrets
At least they're gonna try to fly

If you're interested in recurring themes, look for the separate post on them.
