        Simply curious.
        This is the crux of the matter, rates would vary enormously from gig to gig. Depending on what you said plus I know sometimes Djs will drop the fee considerably for a particularly loyal fan base. In Australia, because to come here is a major trip, they are usually paid per tour rather than per gig. The cost is spread out over the tour with the bigger cities /gigs paying the bulk .

        One thing, trance Djs always get far more money, or in fact any really mainsteam Dj .

        Chunky, I believe Hernan and Nick, would be paid more that 3000 euros for a good club gig.

              I reckon fees have gone down considerably in the last 10 years. I remember going to Gatecrasher for Oakenfold back in 1999 the venue was rammed and there where still about 2,000 people outside. I remember similar scenes outside Turnmills, Cream Gods Kitchen, Renaissance etc. I haven't seen anything like that since 2001
              I read a note of oakenfold from that era, paid him 20.000 for each presentation and 50.000 for each compiled. this was the golden age of oakenfold, now must be different.

              If I remember correctly, the magazine was Ministry from 2000.

                      ^^^Arguable But I was basing that on the the fact that Digweed is more into the business side than Sasha.

                        I totally agree with you on both counts, I was just being a dork.

                                Yeah if you're talking in Dollars, he was getting £10,000 for a gig and about £25,000 for a mix comp, we was only getting around £7,500 from Home when he was resident, due to the fact he was been block booked (£300,000 for 40 gigs)
