I'm doing a project for my accounting class that requires me to create a fictitious corporation. I chose to use the rave scene as my business and I'm wondering now how much to put down in the journal for dj's and stuff. Please help me out! Any information at all will be useful! :)

depends on how big you want to go. your average local dj will usually be around $200 for a set. headliners can be around $1000.

equipment rental varies as well. I will loan my cdjs out for $50 each/night. so turntables will probably be about the same. do you want to do a couple rooms for a venue? if so you'll need sound systems for each room as well as decorations if you want to do those...

really depends really... i know dj's round here that will cost bout €1500 á hour.. i maself not that big only ask €150-200 á hour sometimes play for traveling cost only (international) theres plenty who are willowed to such thing to build up a name or just to support the scene, depends how you bring it really..

gotta bare in mind that the dj's ave to come to the place aswell, maybe need a stay nd all.. all cost that comes over it. some already include that in the price.

hope that helped ya a bit =]
