Review: Tiesto Oct. 3/09 at Arrow Hall

Sooo? the people that went, what did you think?

I didn't go but Negar(TRANCEEE) told me it was AWESOME!!!

my sister said Adam K was better :P
Apparently he only played for 3 hrs and 1 hr of that was wasted on Kaleidoscope tracks

Well...I have to say Tiesto has dissapointed me last night, for a few reasons...He was suppose to play for 6 hours only played 3 hours!! he didn't play many of his tracks. He just wasn't giving his full maybe it was the crowd? but from the looks of it 7000+ peple were in attendance. The worst dissapointment was him turning around for a minute and speaking to one of the management ppl then announcing that he has 15minutes?? and exactly cutting it off at 15minutes!! which left alot of people dissapointed including myself...Considering i paid vip over $100+ not to mention the ridiculous prices of booze at a fixed rate of 9.50 like fucking stupidly priced! The bars closed at 12:45..

I have seen him at Montreal/Vegas/Ibiza and toronto before but this has to be his worst performance i'd give a 5/10.

ouch..... why do the throngs keep coming?

why people come? well his previous sunrise albums were a huge hit including Elements of life..so when you are that big people automatically think the new album is just gona be as good as the last ones... but i have to say this event hosted by GEM events was shit! it's all managements fault. they could have gotten a cheaper venue and let him start at 9 instead of 11:30 .. because Tiesto cant build up that energy in 3 to 4 hours..he needs a good 6 hour set to do his Magik!!

I also think this event was a rip off since hes been playing Montreal the night before and States the night before .. so the guy was probably tired!!

haha

if you check his tour schedule it's crazy

one stretch has 11 gigs in 10 days...yes 11 in 10



no idea how a dj is supposed to be fresh and pumped for each show with a sched like that

also, saw on the news that several ambulances were dispatched to arrow hall as people were having bad reactions to drugs...at least that's what was reported on the news

know your dealer people

This is exactly why I didn't go. LOL @ him playing everything from his album and for him having 15 mins left.

this is what happens when you have under agers partying

i thought it was pretty good, better than my expectations after the debacle at circa last year.

Tiesto played some good tracks and it was enjoyable overall, much better than some rammed club where you can't even move.

drinks weren't expensive, beer was $9 but it was tallboy sized, there was no lineup to get in, or coat check, lots of washrooms.

Sorry to break it to you, but headliners don't start at 9pm.

Thanks for the news...but sorry to break you another news that the DJ you went to see and paid for suppose to atleast play till the time mentioned...not to leave 15minutes early and no response to the crowds request to stay for another song???? if you come late you stay a little late specially if you are trying to promote your new album

if this was Montreal he'd stay another hour like last year.

people complaining that tiesto event sucked? what has the world come to

Tiesto has made his money i guess...

i had a blast. Only 2 things sucked that night. He didnt play that long and the speakers cut out for a few mins. other then that he played some killer tunes, there was lots of space to dance, crowd was alot more responsive then when he came to toronto last time. I dont know if its just me but all and all it was a fun night.

I refuse to go to a venue that large - way too many people (especially since it was all ages). I'm more than happy paying $20 and partying at Footwork or CZ.

it was tallboy sized as i said. clubs just sell the reg sized bottles for like 7bux. so it was cheaper than most clubs.

you really don't go out much do you?

you thought tiesto was going to start playing at 9pm? you expected him to stay past 3? they paid the venue a $ for a certain amount of time , they can't just extend it like at a reg club.

WHEN was he supposed to play for 6 hours??? no idea where you got that information from. Tiesto parties always end at 3, 4 latest! and he wasn't going to come on before 11.
And no where close to 7000 people in that place!!
He announced that he had 15 minutes remaining, he played traffic and left.. leaving about 13 more minutes from the end!!! which I didn't understand.
That party was alright.. he does put on a good show I guess

First hour and a half he played ALLLL of his new songs from his new cd.. he might as well have not come and just put the cd for us to listen to...

then he played:

Tiesto - Traffic
Tiesto - Adiago For Strings
Tiesto - Elements of Life
Delerium - Silence ft. Sarah McLachlan (Tiesto Mix)
System F - Out of the Blue
Deadmau5 - Strobe
Electrixx - Tetris (Original Mix)
Wippenberg - Chakalaka
Tiesto - Flight 643 (Laidback Luke Edit)
Others I can't remember right now

AND tune of the night:
Nenez & Pascal Feliz - Platinum (Tech Mix)

Sorry to break it to you, but Tiesto has been in it for the money for a long time now, and if you didn't know that by now, you should get with the times.

I stopped going to Tiesto when he stopped being a good DJ...and that was years ago.

dude i think i go out much more than you would ever in your entire life. I have seen not just him but other big artists in Ibiza, Newyork, Montreal and LA so dont go abouts telling me how this works lol ... and just for your information that be useful to you..when they book the venue for a gig it's usually until the early morning hours ...this is my 7th Time seeing Tiesto so i know what i am talking about
