how do they know if you bring fifty?
people requesting you at the door?
The club is empty? Find some DJ that's popular, and either open for him, or have him open for you, play together, and let the owners try to say who brought the crowd. More important, than the number of heads, though, is how well you rock the folks there, cuz even if it's only like 20 kids, and they dance their asses off, they'll spread the word, and then you've got it made.

Good Luck

Our bass player is also running a monthly dnb night in Woking - I can make some enquiries and see what their low down on live PAs is..

Saw U at the kings head and arse was kicked so there's no reason why not.. and seeing as there's a great dnb scene down in Surrey at the moment, you never know (about 30-40mins from London direct)

:-)

If it's of any use, drop a mail or msg me here...

Good luck mate
