I was kinda looking forward to carrying it into June and December, say around the time of the next Giant massives...

Oh how I love to read peoples opinions!! Such a variety of madness. Thank you for that.

I had a fantastic night! Yeah the typical cost (ticket, drinks, etc.) involved is always a joke, but we all know that going into it.

I felt that the set up was done rather well, better than last years event. The music overall was typically what I would expect. When Tiesto opened the night with Traffic I knew it was going to be a great night! The pause in his set definitely was a buzz kill, but overall I thought he did a good job under the circumstances. (IMO) I believe he was told to throttle it down to keep the animals under control.

So all in all it was a good night for me. The vibe, crowd, and atmosphere was very positive and I walked away with a smile at the end of the night. And for me thats all that really matters!

Lee Coombs, Sasha and John Digweed and Ferry Corsten were incredible at the LA Sports Arena. What a great vibe. After reading this thread, I'm so glad I choose the DJ legends over the commercial letdown machine that has been Tiesto.

Tiesto is like gambling; 1-in-7 odds he's going to have a winning night, IMHO.

Exactly! Last time I hit the lottery with Tiesto: August 2005 Tiesto in Concert at the LA Sports Arena. Seems like so long ago.

^^^At least when he does, it's a pretty big win for trance fans. But eesh; I can't imagine putting up with six "bad" anythings in my life just to get one "GREAT!"...and when he's bad, he's REALLY bad. Not much in-between.

I love it when Tiesto plays house and progressive. Usually at the beginning or end of his sets.

Posted by omega1n on Jan-09-2008 08:04:

I wonder if Tiesto busted out some sick moves backstage before his set.

Posted by donnybrasco on Jan-09-2008 10:19:

^^^"Yes, I am from Hooolland everybody! Isn't dat veeeeird?"

WTF is that Jedi-Mind trick shit he's doing on that guy with his hands in the beginning of the clip, lol?? Anyway....

I have, and always will, love Electronic Music...but I'll never understand this "Rock Star Status" thing some DJ's have been elevated to (even the GOOD ones) all because they're mixing two songs together. It's hardly comparable to being a talented singer or musician in a REAL BAND.

Veird, veird, VEIRD, VeIrD........VEEEEEEEEIRD!!

He did play and some of his set I really liked, but I dislike being raped for a life necessity and standing in line 30 minutes to take a piss. Not like we had hours and hours to party losing 30 minutes sucks. Bad. I love tiesto but giant can suck it I will NEVER go to another event.

When and where was that?

Looks like sometime in the '05/'06 era.... My guess Europe (Netherlands).

Anyhow, in other countries you are right. And in some other coutries (ie. Japan), tipping is culturally rude (many take it as you trying to give them money to work harder next time). Still think the weirdest thing in Japan is how you don't leave a place with your glass (beer) empty...always leave with the glass full!

This is true, but from what i have been told is that recently this has been changing to the more "westernized" style of tipping.

I guess i have to go there to find out....
