sup /p/ I'm in a bit of a pinch. my friend who is a manager at a nightclub asked me if I can fill in for a photog who called out sick tonight. I told him I don't have much experience with this kind of photography but he insisted that he just needs somebody to be there taking photos, but if I do a good job there could be more work. I'm suppose to get there in a little less than two hours, so some quick advice would help me greatly. would it be bad to just get there with a nifty fifty and a flash and just start shooting away?
please halp B4 I embarrass myself

A nifty 50 and a flash sounds fine to me
If you've got a diffuser for the flash that'd be even better. Same if you've got a slightly wider lens - you're going to taking photos of people up close, and you're gonna be taking group shots so a wider lens (think 35-40mm equiv) would be perfect. But not necessary obviously, you can always take a couple steps back
28mm

Prefocus on people's backs and shoot cadids.

1/8 on drunks at a nightclub?
Say hello to motion blut
Seriously, environment like that, if you haven't got a full frame, 50 will be way too long. Use equivalent to 35mm if you have it. It'll cover most of the bases. If not, use a 24-70 zoom and bump the ISO.

Motion blut ain't so bad if you're using flash to freeze the subject.

Not at all

These two were shot with the popup flash so there shouldn't be any problems
