    Question for everyone here though: I've been reading and a lot of people are saying "If you can't use CDJ's, don't bother." Is that true? I used an S4 for a year, then switched to the VCI-400EGE as soon as it came out and I feel like those are both more than powerful enough to play at a club with.

    Thoughts/Opinions?

    Not when a place is open, that's for sure. Would be a cluster fuck otherwise.

    So they're not really clubs then.

    As for your question, I wouldn't sweat it to be honest, even less of an issue as they are just bars.

    Exactly. Usually just a couple of staff around to open the doors. PROBABLY the MANAGER, too...

    I know your situation. Most "clubs" around this "town" are the same. Also you really shouldn't give an actual frock about what others say. Play your set on what you feel comfortable with, end of discussion.

    (Brotip: ask for a bouncer to keep the booth safe, if necessary, the drunks in a bar can get (quite) damn obnoxious (glass ashtrays and drinks being thrown at you aren't cool stuff [no, i was not playing a bad set, they were just drunk out of their mind]))

    But that doesn't mean they're open though
