although i have utmost respect for the manner with which you dealt with the f00l, i think you do have to reach a happy medium. especially if you are playing somewhere where you know that not many people are down with the music you like.. but the question begs to be asked, if that was the type of audience, why where you asked to play?
back on topic, its always a safe bet to put some secret weapons in you record bag, as in tracks that you know will send people barmy. then if the worst comes to the worst and things don't go too well, you can always perk it up a bit with one of them

) I will def drop some of that. However, since my true love first and foremost is trance and edm in general I will definitly base my set off of it. I will only throw rap in because I feel that as the Dj, even if I know of better music than what my audience wants and I like other music that what my audience likes, I should still play some of the stuff I know they will like because I am there to get the audience movin and having a good time IMO. But I think I will definitly be opening a few eyes tonight 
when I mix a hour long set of pure edm. Anyways, thanks for the advice and as long as I stay relaxed I should have a great time.
