We don't believe Solid Gold Sound actually has DJ's instead they book weddings & parties accross the country, then they search for DJ's in the area. They offer DJ's a very low wage. But still manage to get DJ's to take the gigs.
In our case, In August, Solid Gold Sound phoned us & asked if we could send a DJ to a wedding because they didn't have any DJ's who opted for the job. The average price for a wedding DJ in Denver is $550-$750 for 4 hours. Solid Gold Sound offered us $225. For 7 hours (outragious). But instead of having a wedding couple be dissapointed & possibly not having a DJ at their wedding reception. We aggreed to help out Solid Gold Sound. We sent a DJ to the wedding & played for the entire 7 hours. Ron promised us we would be paid 4 days after the wedding. It is now October & we still havn't been paid. After many emails to Solid Gold Sound. All we get is empty promises & the runaround.
They should be very happy they can get a DJ of any caliber to play for such a small wage. But instead, they don'y care to say thanks or to even pay the DJ. We highly encourage any DJ's who are offered a gig by Solid Gold Sound to hang up & refuse their offer. It's companies like this that give our industry a bad name & reputation.
