It is if you have the right crowd and environment. If you are playing a mega rave, forget it. Raves attract younger people who don't know the music and are usually experimenting with drugs - or at least that is how it pans out here. In a club you usually get an older crowd who have been there and done that and will appreciate it or recognise the calibre of the material. I think the DJs (Mills, Hawtin, etc) know this as they play very differently according to venue.
