Never understood how someone working the sound board as "DJ" could earn 5 figures a night -- how/why is that possible?

It takes talent to be able to push buttons to initiate pre-recorded clips of other people's musical talent at precise moments.

They don't really get paid that much, do they? I'm talking people that do it daily for night clubs or something?

Weddings I can understand, mostly because I had to go through that shit. But we didn't pay them anywhere near 5 figures.

Just spoke to a real DJ and here is the scoop.
DJ. $350 a night
DJ that coordinates audio and video too. Creates new mixes. $1,000.00 a night
DJ that actually does create new music, recorded and on-the-fly, 5 figures, in the city.

knowing WHEN to play each song is actually pretty valuable, and can translate into a lot of money gained/lost for a club.

The best DJ's can "work a dance floor into a frenzy" and keep customers coming back. A playlist on shuffle won't do that.

exactly... a great job if you can get it.... as long as the people in the crowd are hyped up on ecstasy you can get away with making good money for doing something a computer can do. Only thing a computer can't do is where a stupid mask and put yo arms in the air.

OK, so how is a guy working a sound board CREATING NEW MUSIC on the fly. Is he playing any actual instrument? No, he/she is just patching together canned music from someone else.

Yeah...never understood why DJs get so much. Hurray, you mixed together sounds.

Then again, I don't go to clubs.
