The definition is at the beginning of the clue.
How the clue works
The definition is Unhappy — you're after a word meaning sad or sorrowful. Take DO (as in a party or shindig) and L (line), then wrap them around an anagram of FUEL (that's your "distribution"), and the whole thing slots together nicely.
