Personally I cant imagine a gig where a DR would get lost in the mix, but that said im not competing with marshall stacks and 100watt amps. It's a beautiful clean amp that provides a great canvas for using pedals.
Good luck

A Vibrolux or Pro Reverb will do it, but a Twin is better.

Although for me it's the awkward shape and balance that's more of an issue than the sheer weight - and not having end handles - unless it's one of the ones with Gauss speakers, those really are cripplingly heavy and still only have a single top handle.
I normally run them with both the channel and master volume at about 5 - that's probably no louder than a non-MV one at about 2 or 3 or a Deluxe at about the point of breakup. I just prefer the effortless depth and total lack of mush you get from them compared to a smaller amp.

...and it's relatively common, so most people know what it sounds like even if they don't own one themselves. Helps cut down on confusion- "is it the pedal doing that, or is it the amp?"

Aww. My ears miss my SF Twin. My back and my car's suspension don't.

As for the higher gain stuff, well I'm trying out a Fender Machete head today. However, even if I end up buying the Machete, I would never get rid of my DRRI, it's a beautiful sounding amp and even more so with a good Klon klone.
All in all, its just about perfect for me.
I've used it from 50 capacity pubs unmic'd to 5000 standing venues mic'd up, never let me down.
Takes fuzzes (fuzzface, tonbender, muff) all excellently, high gain distortions (SL Drive, JHS Angry Charlie) without crapping out, the jensen it had before could handle it but was a bit trebley for my tastes.
