WOW! $10,000 for a DJ--not in my part of the world. $600 to $1,200 is the wedding rate here, at least for the couple dozen DJs I know. And, these guys are also working the bars and animal clubs for $150 a night, working 4 to 5 hours, putting up with drunks and crazies, plus getting home at 2 a.m..

At the weddings they work three to four hours, have to put up with drunken kids who trash their equipment, drunken adults who want songs that no one want to hear, such as Piano Man, put up with drunken, inconsiderate bridal parties, you name it and they have to put up with it. Sure makes me glad I'm a musician/entertainer instead of a DJ.
