A bit personal but how much $$ are you making playing "Live"

Post by milfbait » Thu Nov 25, 2004 8:04 am

The title says it all, it seems alot of people here are DJing/performing at clubs with Live, I am curious what a gig like that pays.

yea my car hasn't worked since February. blown engine and i can't seem to make up the $2500 to get it fixed.

i'd say i make enough money to "get by"
but more honestly, i'm scraping by.

i'd make more money working full time at mc donalds. but i dont want to work full time at mc donalds. and i can live on less.

Yo,


My partner and I usually get paid about $350.00 Canadian (together not each) for a 1.5 hour Live set (for a moderate to large sized party).
