    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...

    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...

    Solitary by nature.
    Isolation is the gift.
    Does anyone have courage to stand apart any more?
