haha I know
I meant the time.... :)
Youd' be surprised, if your not an A list DJ, Ive heard stories of like dj's having to find their own way sometime's, but thats all part of having a good agent/manager and making sure it's all within the agreement!! even the free drinks :P

Theyve been around for many yrs also... alot of people vote for them tho, because they dont know anyone else and also house djs r more popular I believe, but house supporters are your avg joe... who dont give 2 rats about voting in dj mag!! |
Abit off topic, a sad but true fact why trance DJ's are consistently rated higher, even though I prefer trance it's not an accurate representation of everybody into EDM, just the hardcore supporters |

Thats it.. plus unless your a top5 ranked trance dj, you won't be getting those figures plus 3-5 gigs a week like tiesto..
House dj's can charge 5-10k and could do gigs nearly every night, as theres about 3-4 times as many house clubs in the world. They also do the massive parties also.. and their productions make more money :) generally speaking

Your estimations for Tiesto are a bit out.
He is 10'000 an hour.
and thats euros!
Does that make his management team the most successful pimps in the world? |

Not everyone dj earn's that, plus you forget hour's of listening to tunes, catching taxis to airports, in and out.. travelling... that all counts!!
doubt its just 2 hrs, plus when you arrive at a city, they wanna put you on radio, interviews, gotta be nice to everyone... more like a whole day sometimes, but yeh not bad for a day even :D |
oh its such a hard life ;) |

Tiesto did the olympics for free, though as he only used his own stuff he got broadcasting royalties which could run into a six figure sum I read.
The PR would have been enough, talk about getting your face into every home in the world :eyespop: |

PVD : 36.000 €
Tiesto : 30.000 €
Armin : 12.000 € per a small venue 2 years ago. Dunno how much today in a big place.
Jules : 12.000 €.
All this are for 2-3 (even 4) hours. Depends on conditions. |
