    I don't think it is "to be expected". I live in Glasgow. Apparently the violent crime capital of the fucking universe or some such bullshit & I can't imagine that happening in any half decent club round here.

    To be fair, there's no way a well known DJ (ie, someone that people have bought tickets specifically to hear) would ever get kicked off the decks here unless they were clearly wasted & completely train-wrecking mixes. They would never get booted for playing the wrong type of music. The promoters would be more than aware of who they are booking. They wouldn't book a trance DJ for a techno night etc, or a a guy like DJ Shadow for a pop-hungry crowd.

    Edit - That open-format thing is pretty deceiving btw. I read that as "You can play anything" not "Keep it kind of poppy".

    Promoter did NOT do his job. The club did what they had to do, but they're fuckin retarded for continually not selling their main event. They're paying for a headliner and advertising a normal night. At least that's what it comes off as.
