    Traveling club DJ's get a similar request: "we can fly you and pay for your hotel but that's it. Don't you wanna come DJ in california?" ....not that bad.

    I still wouldn't do it unless it was somewhere I've ever been and they were covering the flight for my wife and daughter, and a rental car. Plus the lost income from her taking time off work.

    Get the same shit here sometimes. People asking how much it costs to let me DJ their prom for the whole night, then I tell them that for 150 euros I do everything: bringing own gear, setting it all up, paying the transport costs, and DJing all night long on my own. I even would've done it for 100. Quite reasonable if you ask me. The answer: "sorry that is out of our budget, we'll look for something else."

    Yeah, like plugging in an iPod or hiring Scumbag Steve X with his Winamp playlist for a crate of beer...

    These are the new generation of people who think all music comes from you tube and probably don't know the difference between a home stereo and a pa system

    You got to explain to them what a dj service is about and that way justify you price

    (I would dj for food now thought it's lunch time here lol )
