    I'm surprised no one's mentioned yet how draining live performance can be depending on the type of individual you are / your mindset. I primarily DJ a certain style, but even if I went to an event with every song of all the 4 styles i enjoy dabbling in, 4 hours would be freaking exhausting, and I've been spinning for around 3 years now.

    Go for it. This sounds like a great opportunity to get your foot in the door.

    I certainly think in NYC that $200 would be the low-end even for a small place.

    If you're landing free gigs after just 2 months of bedroom DJing, in no way shape or form is that screwing yourself over.
