We've seen plenty of nights try and fail as well, not through lack of trying and not through lack of quality.

The thing that seems to stand you apart is actually having some staying power, and having the balls to back yourself and see the thing through.

People need to time to become aware of your brand, whatever your brand is. Nobody is going to cut through the clutter these days with one attempt.

Everyone is pining for brands that stand for something - trusted sources. You don't get that kind of positioning straight off.

Believe in yourself, keep doing what you do, be prepared to lose money and budget accordingly. If you've got the balls you'll see it through, and reap the benefit.
Spot on.

Dom's attitude with Pure Filth is just to put on the music we want to hear.

Couldn't care less about making money, just 100% putting on the kind of night that we would want to go to if we weren't busy putting on nights.

Absolutely no point compromising your vision to make a fast buck, as "the crowd" is a fickle beast that it's nigh-on impossible to predict.

Do what you want, believe in what you do, and if you happen to make a killing on the night then put a good chunk in the pot for next month and redistribute the remains accordingly to the people who made it happen.
