    To expound on Steve's comments: ProDub has nothing to do with where or when you perform.

    If you are format shifting, then you need one (ie ripping CDs, vinyl, making copies of MP3s, etc) - regardless of where or when you perform

    In my experience, the biggest problem with house parties is clients wanting you to go on after the time you're booked until.

    The last house party I did went on an extra 90 minutes, and the one before that more than two hours extra.

    It's all very well saying the extra money is nice, but not when you're completely knackered!

    Morley!!! That's over the border, in the West Riding. That's nearly as bad as Lancashire or Lincolnshire.

    Wuss! Round here the gig finishes when the last one falls over. ( Or when the DJ falls over. )
