I was beginning my Junior year of HS when that movie came out, really nailed the time which is weird to think about now because the world has changed so much in the 10 years since.

Calvin Harris is paid that kind of money because he is the most marketable face in the industry. Working with some of the most famous musicians on the planet and dating Taylor Swift brings serious attention, thus higher booking fees. Not that I agree with it personally, it's just where the music scene has gone.

In regards to working in Vegas, there are so many bars, clubs, and concert halls you can get hired at. A lot of the time you just need the right experience and an appealing resume to which after a little bit, you'll find your spot. I moved here after working for some of the biggest festivals in Florida and it still took me a solid year of networking before I was around the right people. But as always, it's all about who you know and being better than most at what you're aiming to do.

We had Tiesto at an event before, he wanted 200k but settled for 180.

In other words, they are not DJ AM?

Do they do a lot of mixing or are they pretty much throwing on house music then Qing it up with trendy songs from time to time?

Depends on who it is, some people like Porter Robinson will play an actual live MIDI performance that takes a lot of skill and even more pre-show planning. Artists like Steve Aoki will play tracks from intro to outro, which is usual in trance acts, but with house music is lazy and unimaginative as it cuts the amount of work put into sets. A big issue with any musician in any genre is having their time stretched, between clothing lines, endorsements, and touring, a lot of musicians in general neglect their actual craft and end up becoming irrelevant in the process of trying to become more relevant, ironically.

As someone who works in this industry, Paris Hilton's appeal is the same of other shell "artists" like Pauly D, they only sell tickets based on their celebrity status as guests just want to see them not an actual performance. Hakkasan is a 100 million dollar nightclub and they still give bookings to fringe Kardashians who've learned the basics in DJing (extremely easy obvi). Other figures like Deadmau5 and Above & Beyond are paid handsomely because they produce their own records and have helped bring an underground music scene into the mainstream.

TL;DR only brain-deads see Paris live

1. Iron Bank of Braavos - yes, really uncertain to what extent though for this season with the WW threat imminent.

2. Bron - promised the Twins, dies against the Dothraki

3. Edmure - yes, probably will be forgiven for her relation to the Freys like the Umbers and Karstarks were just pardoned

4. Robin Arryn - think he throws LF through the moon door

5. Illyrio - varys replaced his part of the books with tyrion going to volantis, so i guess not

6. Kinvara - no, nice rack tho

Been saying this for the past 2 years
