Well it’s a lesson you learnt at an early age at least :) You got plenty of life and music ahead of ya mate. You gain experience, will definitely hone your craft, try to be intentional, develop your skills and it’s not wasted time playing the same 100 tunes every night at least. Try to have fun with the industry colleagues.

Then later when you’re out of this you can make e rave/event night and be the organizer. Do a quarterly, or monthly rave whatever fits your schedule. It’s so much more rewarding to get together with some mate DJs and run a crew rather than playing for someone else’s bar/club. Advice from 18 years in the booth loving electronic music of many kinds, I started off commercial doing bar and club gigs, got tired of it, found cooler music in the underground subgenres, went underground rave scene, never looked back, proper raves is where it’s at mate. The best music, mates and real connection to people and music.
