Lizzie, u make an interesting point here so i thought i might explain my view on it.
Its a catch 22, if you go start a night at a smaller club in order to fill it with the expected numbers you then have to ask yourself how do we expand? Will we attract a crowd for the nights more "intimate" feel and lose that when attempting to go to a bigger venue later on, or,in moving to a bigger venue will we realise we didnt have the following to support it?
The reverse is to start off with a big venue, if you dont get the big numbers tho the venue loses interest because the bar is not making money and you are back to the option of the point above.
This is why imo it is so important to bring new people into the trance scene, show them something new, buy them a ticket for something just once so they have nothing to lose and they may find they love it (like so many ppl i have done this for over the last few years).
The scene went from nothing to pretty full on in just a couple of years pre2000, it was simply because so many new ppl were trying the parties/clubs for the first time; loving it and bringing new ppl to the next one on.
