me too..Course all the top boys are in it full time, I wonder what sort of level you've gotta be at to jack in the day job though. It'd be quite a big step.
netsky gets like 2k for a big event, so shouldnt be that hard to save something up. 8 gigs possible in a month => 16k + sales/month. with netskys sales you easily should be able to get 15k a month minimum without any real stress, even if you cant play 8 big events..
so i assume, yeah. enough to hold for retirement.
MC Flyte (of Fleximus and Flyte fame) is a plasterer.
Levela works for Abbey.

so how much does your average big name dj get for like a one hour set then?
DJ's are starting to cost more money than they bring in, as a promoter its starting to get obscene the amount agencies are quoting for their artists, they should honestly be ashamed, people wonder why parts of scenes are dying off its because they can't sustain themselves.
Take 4.5k for roni size for example, his name alone wouldn't bring in that amount back, so why bother booking him?!
hold on so 500 euros if you get in the charts 4.5k for roni size, 2 grand for netsky and a grand for andy c??? some serious bullshittery goin on in this thread i feel
Andy is 2k minimum for 90 min

Have you got a source for this information? Maybe when he used to live sets as part of Reprazents but not a chance does he charge that for a dj set

I'd say around £500 for Netsky, £1000 for a hour of Friction, £1500 for Andy for an hour. I'm not a promoter tho I'm just estimating
