That, or just that people put djs so fucking high on the pedestal that they have become seriously overpaid for what they can bring in vs alcohol.

I can't drink so I hope things like this can happen. It really sucks partying all night and watching everyone slam down drinks like nobody's business.

From the North American standpoint, the question is more 'Can a club without alcohol survive without the constant threat of being raided for drugs?'. Alot of the best clubs I know of in Canada like Stereo in Montreal and the old Boa in Toronto were always under that threat for not serving alcohol (opening at 1-2am) because the cops would be suspicious of their being 500-1000 people being in a club at those hours given the circumstances... more so in Toronto. I get the concensus that it's much tougher over here to keep a club open with certain limitations than say a major Western European city, the authorities understand that it's going to go on and if it's victimless then leave it alone.

In england you have 24 hr drinking laws..

scotland not so, clubs by law stop serving drink at 3am, anything after has to have a later license applied for which cost a fortune I'm reliably informed.

on sundays nowhere is allowed to serve drink before 12:30pm..

How does this explain the overwhelming majority of venues/nights where the DJ is getting paid fuck all?

I've been to several non-alcoholic raves (in Canada), where everyone was heavily searched upon entry so no alcohol was being snuck in.
Once everyone got in and pop their pills, they cops just chilled by the entry way unless there was a problem.

And also, there is a big festival (shambala) in Canada that does not allow any alcohol in for the whole weekend, and its been going on for years.
I think I'd generally rather be in a non-alcoholic crowd. The dancing and energy, sober or rollin, is better.
