    Either that or they're playing a prerecorded set that's been heavily mastered beforehand specifically for club sound systems rather than hi-fis

    There's a notorious urban legend that sound guys are paid to make the opening acts not sound as good as they could be to make sure the headliner sounds phenomenal, and I've seen enough and done enough gigs to know that there may actually be some truth to this. But yeah, volume bump is definitely one of the easiest ways of doing it.
