jpb55 Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 ok i'm not looking for solid numbers, but an idea would be nice...how much do you think DJ's like draper, junior, and peters get paid a night at their residence clubs??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdancer Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 I think someone told me that the highest paid Dj's make like 20 Grand a night. I could be wrong though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrgy112 Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 I know back a couple of years ago Peters was making upwards of 10,000 a night for his residency at Factory, and as for Draper I heard a rumor that he only makes 1500 a night, but Draper is known, but not as well as Peters, and vasquez(godfather of house).

russ reign Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 hmmm... I'm not sure about people like JP and Junior who are are represented through independent management, but as for most high-level DJs who are represented by Track Booking Agency like Anthony Acid, Boris, Sal Parm, Guido, Ediie Baez, etc, they are making between $1,000 and $2,500 depending on the night of the week and the particular gig. Skribble makes $9,500. Johnny Vicious is $3-$4K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belladiva Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 100 or a 1000???? 100 dollars seems like shitty money for a dj even its at a lame place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest saleen351 Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 I was told by a good source, (a big time dj)that Jr.V got 10k a nite at twilo, JP gets 5-7K a nite, guys at the shore are around 500-1500k, excluding denny, I have no idea what he makes...and my sources don't know....I cant see any club being profitable paying someone 25k for 1 nite, the only way I see it if the club wants to get attention, sorta like marketing....I dunno....

But i do agree with you... over 25k seems like a lot of $ to pay a dj, but than again I don't dj!!! -V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigpoppanils Posted August 8 Report Share Posted August 8 how the hell does skribbles make more than johnny vicious? his sets are terrible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeemr4 Posted August 8 Report Share Posted August 8 Originally posted by bigpoppanils how the hell does skribbles make more than johnny vicious? his sets are terrible Probably because he is tied to MTV, and KTU and stuff like that...Morons think that since he is "soooo popular" he commands more money. I think Skribble is gettin better, but is no where near JV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
