Seem's like now days mixing intros and outro's is likened to listening to Brittany Spears. Everyone does it from time to time, but it's definitely something you'd want to do alone rather than projecting to a crowd. For most, solutions to this problem come from a) learning new and improved mixing techniques, b) cutting song lengths on a music editing program or c) making mash-ups. Consider a mash up a mix within a mix. Love them or hate them, there is no denying they are the poor mans production. In saying that however, they are also a fundamental way to get a crowd to actually listen to what your playing.
A well executed mashup should contain at least one track the teenie boppers are willing to take their clothes of to. Combining this generally commercialised, vocalised, 'chillwave' sound with a more bass orientated track is generally the best way to go. Alternatively, add 1 part pop track with 2 parts acapella for same effect. Here's a few mashups floating around at the moment.
Yum.
