who are the top earners in techno?

[RDR]

a certain guy from slovenia apparently got 15k for nye party last week...

My mate tony?

[RDR]

Mills played locally a few years ago and irc he got £9k + flights, hotels, rider and a fairly costly tech rider...

An album cover

or my fav version

anal bum cover.

Sorry, had to get that in...

[Little_Fella!]

yeah, mainstream Trance DJs make crazy money. the names you see listed on compilations like GU make like 30k for some gigs. at that level, it's a business transaction. certain names could show up and shite on the decks to a positive crowd reaction.

Paul vn Dyke charged £15k to play at the Koko Club in Camden, London - - pulled in about 2500 people... we reckon the promoters won't have come out with much from that,enough for a fish supper was the word.. and they even said themselves that he wasn't worth that much...:whoops:

I think it's just greed and as you say it's completely a business transaction...

it does seem a lot - but when you think about it's probably 15 quid to get into the club - I make that 37.5 grand on the door....22.5 grand more than they paid him.....how could they not have made money?

They have to hire the venue, which definitely don't come cheap and the meanest door staff in the world must have cost a bit too... horrid men :upset:

Promotion in all the DJ Mags don't come cheap either - - it's a bigger game as you know so the relative percentage return's become 'fish suppa' in size...

I wasn't going to see Paul vDickus by the way, before you all strike me off as wearing panty liners, a friend of mine runs High Heels and Minimal who run the bar room musac...

[davethedrummer]

well it's obvious isn't it?

I am the top earner in techno

yes folks it's ME ME ME ME !!!!!!!!!! all the way !!!!!!!!

i have regular dinner evenings with my bank manager and his lovely wife
and we discuss how i could possibly buy the continent of Africa and save all the starving children etc

but you know....

i can't be arsed with all that goody goody bullshit stuff !no bleeding hearts here mate , I EARN my money properly and NO-ONES going to take it away from me.

yes it's good old hard work that gets me paid.....

In fact it's a bit like working in the street for a construction company digging ditches all day in the rain and coming home stinking of sweat and tar and dirt and piss.

Only it's more like getting paid a years wages in a night for poncing around in nice shirts and flash cars and having posh birds try to suck my cock all the time , while i play records made by the blood and tears of incredibly talented but horrendously underpaid musicians , who i occasionally mention in MY blog on MY space while i talk about MY self...i mean talk about work work work.....i just never stop.

no i'd just rather get sent all my records for free
wake up at 4pm
take the odd call from the label manager and the agent
who tell me where the next pay check is coming from.
and get on the internet and watch my bank balance iiiiiiincrease in real time

kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!kerr-ching !!!!!

[davethedrummer]

Adam Beyer is looking for €4000

he can keep looking
if he left it on the bus home he'll never get it back.

[dirty_bass]

I`m looking for 4000 too
If anyone finds it, it`s mine, not adams, it fell out of my pocket.

played a gig with rackitt and wilko over here.. it was the revolution night after the one we played at H..

anyway, we had the room packed all night and got the usual couple of quid each.. lisa lashes headlined the hard house room (which had about 30 people in it at most) but the slag still got near 5000 and a 5 star hotel room.. AND an extra plane ticket for her gay record bag carrier..


i think rackitt gave her some abuse though so it was worth it.

cat fight.. rachel rashes vs lisa lashes :lol:

yeah thats the one right there
seen that situation so many times before it's not funny

and when you're the guy thats got the people moving and your going home with a fraction of the main djs wages
it does irk you somewhat.

but thats the way it is , to be honest half of those people probably WERE in there because of lashes , they just found your room more exciting
maybe they though rachel WAS lashes
i wouldn't be surprised

a club story:

i was down in newport in wales once
and some girl was really hassling me to sign her rather large tits
she hassled and hassled and hassled me for drugs and to sign her tits
until eventually i said:
ok
so i signed her tits and gave her back the marker pen and looked at her like:
satisfied?
and she turned to her mate and said:
what does that say?
her mate said:
dave the drummer
and she said:
who's he?

i rest my case
