not getting paid properly at gigs

That's why I lift weights, because then when you grab someone by the shirt collar, it changes the tune a little bit.

doesnt make much differance how big you are when theres 3/4 lads organising a night with 5 or 6 bouncers from the club to back them up :whoops:

Size means nothing.
Best bouncer I ever worked with was 5ft 6" and a wirey little fecker too.
He dropped many a big meathead iron lifter without even taking a breath.

Best not go down the violence route against promoters unless you are really sure of yourself, if they have the bouncers on their side, you gotta remember those people drop skulls for a living. And in my experience, for the most part, they enjoy a good ruck.

Agreed, in my bouncing experience you always looked forward to the cocky sonofab*tch who wants a quick melee. I don't think people realize their mentality is to try to fight and hold stance and knock someone out. A bouncer on the other hand has free reign to make things end as quickly as possible, and are trained in liability arts. Meaning the art of throwing you into a table and saying you tripped over a drink during the rumble. Since the other bouncers and the owner and promoter are in cahoots, they will all coaborate the story. Last time I was in a squabble my objective was to end it as quickly as possible. As far as getting stabbed if you see it coming on a definite you want to use your arms as a blocking apparatus, what's a few cuts when your organs being impacted could kill you. Plus chicks love scars man.

Always preferred beating people down with my talk. Far more stisfying having the fool walking away apologising and agreeing with you, without you having to even give a stare down.
Especially when faced with a sawn off.
