Playing for Free is the reason why our DJ rates are so low now
Why should an establishment pay Thousands of Rands for you per night if they can get a dude to play for free?
But on the other hand some of my best gigs where gigs in which i played for free! lol
In terms of pricing, In Johannesburg we charge between R 1000 to R 1500 for the whole night
Thats from 7 to 12 with our own equipment at places similar to Newscafe & Capellos
And these prices are subject to a Residency. If its once off then you should charge more.
R 150 an our is very low even with competitions from other DJs
Its just going to mess up the market for us even further
