Just about to start running nights locally and it shocks me how people can fail to provide the right Hardware.
If the Venue/Promoter hasnt provided you with a set up you need to play a set, hes not interesting in music just interested in making money.
So walk out and apologise via twitter/fb/whatever.

its alright just walking out...
but, do you really think the average people in clubs realise how important hardware is to a DJ?
i can imagine everyone just getting mad at the DJ for "over-reacting".
not saying i disagree, far from it.
thats just the way i imagine it to go down

Yeah i reckon you're right, but its a double edged sword, say only one on the 1210's works properly and it causes your mixing to be all over the place.
They will be just as negative.
I was half-cut last night, so what i wrote wasnt the best thing to do.
