ok pub is .... probably max of 80 people. My sounds system and music based bits will just be ok. The lighting rig won't, we generally run a trilite truss. so it's just borrowing a t bar stand or two. he's charging £10 per ticket. I was thinking £250 sounds fair.

Morning all! Random one here! Normally i Dj larger marquee/venues 18th/21st private parties etc, it's a market i've wedged myself into and carry chunky kit. Also my Dj work is more of a hobby on the side and a way of makng some extra cash. Last night my local pub landlord ( a mate of mine) asked me to DJ NYE, Normally i avoid NYE, and have a party myself, but as i wasn't doing much and most my mates are away i said i would consider it!

I also know i'm new to the forum so don't want to sound like an arogant fool. But if we demand it and people know the quality of the service you provide they will pay! The cost of other event services is rediculous compared to the amount us Dj's get paid. I had a call for an event the other month and they complained they could get someone for £100, which i didn't deny! You
