Hello!

How mutch money do you guys earn in one Night

I know this subject might be alittle sensitive
for some people, but i just want to get an ide
of what a dj can ask for one gig. Im not talking about
famous dj´s like Pvd,Tiesto etc, i mean more ore less uknown
dj´s .

well dress up like a girl,
act wierd, call yourself boy goerge and u can make 20grand for 2 hours.

i dunno how much a dj makes. all depends on the club, the nite, the promoters, etc. i'd guess a few houndred to a few grand. even if ur not famous but ur well known in ur community u'll get paid more than if u were new. theres no real formula.

if you get to the point where your djing pays for your records,
consider yourself a successful dj =)

First 4 hours $200 ..........thats the minumum i start at.....even if i spin for less time......then $40 an hour........i did a gig that i got $120 for an extra hour

DJ Cheesy and i get paid 150 for the first three hours and then 50 for the next following hours w/a 200$ minimum

You guys should ask for more money. 200 doesn't cut it for a 4 hour set.. I say ask for at least 350-400+ or no show. Those djs that play at parties make like 600 bucks for like 3 hours and its only parties. So I suggest you guys make some negotiations next gig =p

um, yeah, something like that. but thats for mobile dj stuff like weddings and bar mitzvahs.

A gig you should make more cuz people just keep on coming and you want that doh badly for you equipment.

some djs make massive bank....... like Oakenfold gets around 30grand......for 2 to 6 hours of djing uslaly 2 to 3 hours...there was a article in mixmag about a year ago i think or 6 motnhs ago i dont remember but anyway had many big djs in there and asked them how much they on average make per gig.....Pvd was like 5 to 7 grand a gig,Carl cox was the same...pretty much around 5 to 20 grand depending the time u spin and who u are....... Pvd i heard got 18grand for 7 hour set at Space which is well worth it ...rahter then Oakenfold getting 30 grand for 2 hour shitty set hehehe some of these djs dont deserve that much money but i guess it sthe people who pay them fault ohh well
