so this is my question:
i´m going to spin at a party a friday and i asked the promoter what he is wiling to pay me for that evening. he said 100€ which is about 150$. now i´m thinking to myself 100€ is not that much since i have to spin from 10pm till 6-7am. i know a lot of dj´s that are member of a booking agency that get paid 250 up to 500€ a night. okay. so i´m not doing it to get rich or anything like that since it is so much fun for me to dj, but what du u think? would it be okay if i would ask the promoter if he is willing to pay me 150€? what are ur expierences? i mean i would never ask for more than 200€ a night since i´m not signed and i don´t have to pay for a bookingagency. but i´m concerned about the fact getting into a situation like: " i know u got 100€ for the last gig so i won´t give u more than this." i don´t want to be a cheap guy that is giving the crowd a nice time and making party promoters rich...last time i spun at a big party the promoter paid me like 100€ for spinning 2 hours but i think i´m in a situation to ask for since i have to be at the club from 9:30pm to 7am what is a long time and hard work.
maybe u can help me out.
thanks
