you've definately got a point here - D&B is much bigger in the uk, and for the same price as maybe one big tech dj at the lost or the end you could see five or six top D&B dj's - in cardiff the main night has two or three well known names (i.e andy C) for about 8 quid - so techno has lost its way somewhere. To be fair to the big names though - in europe they play massive parties - so they're not going to take a third of the fee to play in the uk when they could jump on a one hour flight and earn three times as much are they? I wouldn't......
