No fucking way.

That's what I said. I've heard multiple people claim similar, specifically for that event, but I just can't possibly believe that Tiesto would make half a mil for a 2 hour set.

50k LMAO.......... He gets more than that for the smallest clubs he plays now a days.

500k is more like it for a festival.

$500K for Tiesto for Coachella sounds high to me but he did close out the main stage that Saturday night so you never know...

A verified booking fee we do for Tiesto was that he was to get $250K minimum for a Halloween show last year in LA... (his fee came out in a lawsuit filed again the City of LA - the venue he was to play for Insomniac was the LA Convention Center and after the EDC news last year the city got nervous and cancelled the event and Insomniac is suing the city for damages).
The $20 million figure he supposedly made last year came from an interview he did in the Wall Street Journal in the past year or so where Tiesto said that sounded about right.

SHM are $300K approx. to book them for a major festival.

they have a 360 contract with their agency so their deals work a little differently... the record label put up the $ for the Masquerade Motel this past March and they split the profits (if any).
