I have some bad news for the SC DJ's. I work in a club that is a really big money maker for the dancers and guess what? No DJ!! That's right, we either cue up our own cds or (like me) plug in an mp3 player and start dancing.
The customers love it that there is no dj. The club does not allow the girls to skip stage, there is no VIP, and stage tips are great. There are also a LOT of lap dances sold in this place.
There are some other clubs I've worked at that used this same opporating procedure, and it seemed to work fine. These clubs usually had more money to be made then the fancier "show clubs" in the area.
As a side note I have worked with 2 DJ's in my career that really did measureably help the dancer's money on the shifts that they worked. All the girls wanted to work on Brad's shifts because he had a personality that really kept the energy going in the room. He really banked at that club usually pulling down up to $1000 a night just in tips from the 6 dancers that worked his shift. His attitude was like a house mom toward the girls, so they still took care of him even if they were having a bad night. The other DJ worked in a big club, was an ameture comedian, and did some great stand up to keep the guys feeling light hearted and kept the customers opening their wallets. These guys both did fabulous jobs and were well paid for it.
I have met DJ's that though that the sun and moon rose on thier command. One DJ thought he was really messing with me by playing stuff like Weird Al Yankovick, but it backfired and I worked it and made double what I normally make on stage. Cut my set short?? Great! more time for lap dances! Call me to stage out of VIP?? Won't happen at the clubs I work at, and if it does happen, I won't go back again.
I know this thread has gotten a little off topic, but I thought I would share. Just remember that were the girls make the majority of their money really has nothing to do with the DJ (lap dances) so long as the songs keep playing the girls are working!
