King REVIEW: Tiësto in Las Vegas Memorial Day weekend 2006

Since Tiësto broke the previous "rule" that the second night in a row at the same venue is much better than the first this weekend in San Francisco, I think it's time to change it to:

If you want to see Tiësto at his best, go to a Sunday show.

Don't ask me why that is; it just seems to be...

Because he totally redeemed himself at Empire Ballrom this morning (and the Hard Rock yesterday afternoon). Detailed reviews when I get back to L.A., but don't wait for me to start with your own!

Videos speak louder than words.




The place was hard to get in, we had presale. You still had to slip a C note for priority.

And add my myspace group for pics and videos of recent shows.

You should not have to slip c-notes to gain priority (and in fact in this case....entrance!!!). I'm sure the club doesn't care because they are making boatloads extra from that sort of payola, greasing the bouncers, charging extra for GA at the door, and allowing other shady business to go on in side the club such as prositution. If wantickets wants to be affiliated with this sort of business that's their problem, but I am sure American Express doesn't, and I've already exercised my rights.

Thats fine and I praise you for exercising your rights, but at the same time, I'm in Vegas. I want to get in. I know what they want. So I give it to them.

I know whos whos who in Hollywood and this weekend I met alot of contacts in Vegas just by talking and asking.

I'll share another video today. Did the other one come out?

Here's a good view and good sounds, but short. Anyone take any Rehab videos?

Me and my buddy got there @ 1am, didn't get in till 3:45am. We had presale tickets, but still got fucked in the line. Got in to catch the last half hour of Faarsheeds set (can someone ID the mix of the last song he dropped which was Gabriel & Dresden-Tracking Treasure Down?). I was still pissed about waiting in line for almost 3 hours, but Tiesto made it all go away, he shut that place down! My fav was when he dropped Helsinki Scorchin', EPIC!!!


Posted by RobertStern on May-31-2006 01:47:

This was a awesome event. Tiesto was fantastic, mixing could have been better, but I am sure he had been going for a long time at that point after Hard Rock.

Faarsheed played a great closing set and was dancing with the crowd and stuff, a whole lot of fun.

Prince had a CD release party that went way late, till like 2:40am.. This is the reason for the long wait in line. After clearing Prince's stage and setting up for Tiesto, it was after 3am when they opened the doors.

The Club did what they could to expedite entry, the big problem was you have over a 1000 people all doing whatever they can to get in, so those who were the most committed got in first, plain and simple. Money always helps on in these situations. But if you had a presale and you got over to the right line, the wait was not bad at all once they started letting people in. They totally did not screw the people who bought tickets. That line was just really hard to get over to, because of the mob of people trying to get it.

By the way, if you don't want to deal with prostitution, DON'T GO TO LAS VEGAS, Period! Easy as that.

Las Vegas is running on a whole different set of rules and this is just something you can either complain about and get mad and frustrated, which by the way is so much fun! Not.. or you accept it the way it is and play the game by those rules, easy as that.

The sound in Empire was fantastic, thanks to the Funktion-One Setup, and Adam who handles all the sound over there. They are actually planning to upgrade the system again, addin some more Funktion-One's.

All in all a really awesome trip, and I would do it all over again in a heartbeat.

Next stop in Vegas, Sander Van Doorn @ ICE June 9th

Sad on 2 fronts:

1) Couldn't get laid in Vegas
2) Was surprised that there was a great deal of hookers in LV compared to other cities.

Yo, Rob, this might come as a surprise to you but there is also a lot of gambling there too (as compared w/ other cities).

Indeed! I don't normally pay too much attention to sound quality, but this had to be the best I've ever heard in a club (or maybe it was just the contrast with Ruby Skye the night before ). The lights were really good too.

I'm having difficulty finding this song is it spelled differently or does it have a another name?
