where do u get ur figures from?
i think uve just made all that up 10k average per gig got to be joking

"I believe that's referred to as intelligent drum & bass, which obviously means there's a genre of stupid drum & bass out there" (John Peel)

Don't forget promotion deals... The ones that write for movies commercials,and video games...... i.e. Moby, Fatboy Slim, BT, PVD, Dirty Vegas, Oakenfold, Tiesto. Promotional deals give you big bucks...

Also, the ones that remix for really big pop stars (madonna, Brittany Spears, Christina...) like Junior Vasquez, Victor Calderone....

But, also remember that most of these big guys pump a lot of money into their staff, and especially their labels.... So, it works a lot like the pop industry.... the more you make, the more overhead you have as far as lawyers, agents, accountants, label overhead...etc.

I would imagine that most of your jet setting DJs are millionares....probably from saving over the years.... especially the ones that brag about having two or more homes, opening their own club/bar/restaurant.....

I would love to know how much the dance music industry generates a year, in total... MTV should start doing, "It's good to be Paul Oakenfold" just so we know how ridiculously some of these "superstars" really have it.....

Nothing fucks me off more than a fan that thinks a DJ can do no wrong. There is a lot of good music out there. How some people can be so easily pleased is beyond my comprehension.

Djs I think could deserve be millionaire but I'm almost sure they are not rich, they produce only for love the music:

thrillseeka
pulser
lange

And since then he will have done lots of gigs, and of course he has his radio show with radio one, so he is probably a member of the millionaires club by now.

i seriously doubt it. He only makes about 2grand a gig, or less. He wouldnt make making a huge amount from his radio show either.

tiesto makes no where near a 100,000 a gig ffs. Certainly not when he plays the average club.

the fudge isnt worth millions either.

well if you figure that over 10 million households in america have a net worth of over 1 million dollars...1 million isn't really that much money... theres a lot more money out there than you might think

so true

Guys, there are so many djs you are questioning that I can't believe you would. Someone even said oakie may not be worth that much? I bet oakie has at LEAST 10 mil in his pocket. He charges (or used to) 27,000$ an hour of a gig... think about that. That's more than some people make in a year.
