Location, location, location.

Crappy shows at good location will usually do well.
Great shows at crappy locations will usually struggle.

Crappiness and greatness will factor in to a degree but in the end it's all about location, location, location.

Too a degree. I personally believe just about every successful club/Restaurant's success is mainly based on the personality of the owner/operators. I've played run down looking clubs that are packed because of the owners. Look at Tootsie's in Nashville, i remember the floor wasn't even level and the cig machine at almost a forty five degree angle, but it always packed. I've also played the shiney clubs with all the bells and whistles at a great location that just won't go.
I have played both types and after a few years, i only play the personality based clubs.
Personality, prices, and last, location seems to outlast all others and are the most fun to play. Just an opinion.
