-- REVIEW: Tiesto @ Koolhaus
Pages (11): « 1 2 [3] 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 »

I had a great time, both during and after the party - which is probably the reason I missed my sleep altogether today, just wasn't worth wasting time on.
Anyways, the line-up was 10 min; had tickets; 5-min coat-check line-up; LOTS of familiar people.. not jammed at all, though I did ignore the area directly around stage for that reason and b/c of this annoying group of people who kept yelling. The sound was, indeed, shit. The added lasers + light system was great, although I remember seeing better ones at GoldClub Series events. What really pissed me off was the water dripping from the ceiling; I was soaked by the end of the night. The feedback on my t-shirt was funny.. even got an offer to sell it to this guy for $50, then fantom offered $60
Now, onto more important stuff:
LUKE FAIR: really surprised me, I didn't expect anything from him, as I've heard him before and walked out with a headache. It was very energetic, I guess he felt obliged to put more into openning for #1 DJ
TIESTO: Great first half of the set, the second part a bit more commercial, a bit more mellow, not very magikal. hmmmmm not as good as I expected, but he didn't disappoint me. Although I was pissed that he spun Flight, as he always does so predictable, hate that tune.
I LOVED Andain - Summer Calling
DEKO-ZE: W O W, loved this guy! He was so into it too! And the remaining crowd really seemed to enjoy it. The tune 'Dark beat' was a total hit!

"I feel it deep inside me.. I wanna ride it.. Can't fight it.. I might as well rely on the drum beat.. DJ pump the low end frequency.. Can't hide it.. I won't deny it.. Cause I'm addicted to drums and I'm a slave to the.. Dark Beat"

agreed!!. i had a similar guy upfront who couldnt see where the fuck he was smoking and pointing his cigarette he fucking burnt me with the cig

ran into the same dude....almost kicked his ass for that.

OMG what a night! my voice is gone and i cant hear properly.

first i will discuss the bad:

1. my main gripe was the bass was WAY too loud. i would say about 50% of the songs all i could hear waqs bass. i went up to the front and i could feel the bass in my throat.

2. I kept feeling drops of wetness on my arms and im like wtf is that? then i finally figured out it was sweat dripping off of other people. ewww

the good:

1. TA attendance = WOW

Tatgirl- Thanks for all the introductions! its people like you who make TA events so great by introducing people.

Sage- Thanks for the hook ups on the glowsticks man, what a great night, i hope to see you again.

Endlesswave- nice to see you again man, finally i know who you are LoL

halo20- man you are like the COMPLETE opposite of what you are on the boards in real life LoL. nice partying with you man!

DJ Hordash- every time im at an event with you, you always pump me up cause you're always goin craaazy!

Time2Burn- did you know like EVERYONE in that damn place? i chilled with you for a bit and every 5 steps we took "HEY MAN!! WHATS UP?!" holy christ man, you knew EVERYBODY! thanks for the offer on the J too.. too bad i couldnt cause i had to get in haha

RJ- Thanks SO much for the ride man! you're a really cool guy to hang around with and i hope we go to much more parties together.

404 Science + Friend - nice little glowing session we had goin on there for a while, haha people kept comin up to me asking "HOW THE FUCK YOU DO THAT GUY?!"

LKD- I shoulda come with you guys to FlatIron but ah well, maybe next time. great to party with you man, you're a cool guy.

Durafei- We didnt really see that much of each other last night but it was still good. i wonder if we will see yet another hilarious pic of you hahaha.

Ken- I know you didnt go but you hooked me up with that ID that let me get in. thanks so much man, it worked like a charm. ill send that back on monday!

who was the big guy that was behind me and that was with endlesswave most of the time? you got earplugs off RJ..

2. women = . holy shit man. there was this one girl beside me wearing only a pink bra and you could FULLY see down it. i had a bit of trouble paying attention to the music for a while. alot of sexy women there that night

3. the crowd: the crowd in this event was great! so many people i would just turn around to and be like "OH MY GOD!!" and just give em a hive. it was great. way better crowd than talla IMO.

4. the music: when he dropped Tomcraft- Lonliness i went INSANE. i have never felt an adrenaline rush like that in an event. it was madness. he played some of my fav songs. Way out West - Mindcircus. Iio- At the End (Scumfrog Mix). Tomcraft - Lonliness (song of the night) and the die another day Tiesto remix.


all in all it was a great night. best TA party ever. i hope to meet you guys again.

btw if anyone is wondering who i was, i was the white guy with the brown beanie, and sunglasses with red glowsticks ( i wasnt using them much while tiesto was playing tho)

heh you shoulda seen this couple in front of me. they were arguing about some shit i couldn't make out. but it was ridiculous. he looked about ready to slap her.

To tell everything about that party would take pages..
Everything was absolutely INCREDIBLE !

* Kool Haus - Looked awesome ! And best thing WASN'T OVERPACKED ! WOWO - Highlight of the night !
* Luke Fair - Played very well ! Kinda made me love progressive !
* Tiesto - WOW. He did look tired behind the decks, but still played an awesome set. True it wasn't a typical Tiesto set, but it was still great!
* Deko-ze - Unfortunately couldn't stay for his set even though I really wanted too

Shoutouts to all TAs who were in full attendance !

yeah tiesto did look pretty tired but he was really feelin' the crowd from start to finish. it was great.

hope the buffalo peepz made it back ok

This was defintely his worst perfromance of his 5 Trips to Toronto.
However he was still pretty good.

THE BASS WAS RIDICULOUS....COULDNT HEAR A FUCKIN THING!!!

I didnt think it was too packed. I was expecting to not be able to move.
Also, it seemed like noone there had any clue as to what was going on. Id hear a track coming in and go nuts while 1000 other ppl just stood there. Even "The Prophet" didnt seem to get anyone excited...

So the music was decent, Bass ruined everything, and the vibe was defintely lower than his other visits.

i know exactly wat u mean...the worst was up front...it was worse than sitting in a gino mobile with 10 subs.... as for people not feeling, i dunno wat ur talkin bout man..of course right up fron where i was, all of us were singing along with the vocal tracks and we were nuts there..... but i did glance many times behind and noticed people all clueless

i can bet on a million bucks that over 1/2 of the people there didnt have any idea who the fuck he was ...as i mentioned earlier, there was a blonde bitch screaming in praises..however the dumb bitch asked the dude beside me this one question "hey..is this tiesto???"

so u can imagine how many cluless idiots were there...

yeah, i know what you mean. it's all good tho man. The TAs there knew how to fuckin party. all of da TAs that i met/ran into were pumped. it was awesome.

Hey...is this Gaelen? (sorry if I spelled your name wrong)..it's Sarah...fellow HBA'er.

Sorry to hear it wasn't so great! I know you guys were hyping it up for a long time...

RESPECTZ TO ALL THE TAz THAT CAME OUT !!!


Amazing to party with you ALL !!!
The list is just tooo big to name

The party was DAMN dirty and nasty ... it's going to take me forever to rid of the GUV goo off my shoes and clothes.

Obviously, Tiesto was tired cos he was spinning every night from tuesday, his next performance: Innercity, I think. he spns in europe and they have different time, then he comes here and we have other time. If u just travel it is tiring, but hey he had that sub pumping next to his deks and only that was disturbing.... WHO DA FUCK SETS THE SOUND LIKE THIS!!!!!!!!!! All the tracks are amazing that he span (progressive?????, he did not span much of the progresive stuff, IT JUST SOUNDED LIKE IT!!!!), i am just listenning to them, if u actually hear the whole song with all the little magik sounds, OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!! Tracklisting was nice.

Me = going crazy remembering everything.......

I also met a lot of peeps from Buffalo! Man You guys are way too negative about the crowd, and how packed it was. IMO If it wasen't packed with all the people, it woulden't have been so good! DEKOZE was UNREAL!! Wicked! The last time I saw him was at battle of the house DJs at The Drink on a Wednesday night, and I loved him then! I really love how he gets into the music, and grooves to the music! That hypes me up BIG time! Kool House was CRAZY! BEST trance party of the year definetly! I wish I would have got to meet some TAs! TIESTO IS MY GOD!!! NUFF RESPECT!!! I went into Guv for a bit, and Mark Oliver was Tearing it up! The crowd was really good! Anyways I wish we all could have planned better and all partied together! Next time!! anyways guys next time!!! TRANCE IS MY LIFE!! Lots of HOT chicks too! Anyways guys I wish I could have met you all! and partied together, NEXT TIME! Anyways guys I gotta get some sleep! All write some more after I get some sleep and sober up! Peace out and respect to everyone! TIESTO RULES I L O V E HIM! MWA MWA MWA!!

man i see y u are supporting the guv so much..ur nickname says it all but i dont thin k u understand that choking to death from lack of oxygen is good for the mood

also over capacity is a fire hazard..u have only 2 exits and 2000 people to runout from them..think about it

I wonder where can I get his cdr's or his track listings

oh i just remembered

shout outs to trancxtacy and bliss n trance as welll...trancextacy man, whered u disappear...told u to wait there till i came back..ah well

guys nevermind what i said about red glowsticks. those mah fuckas are still glowing! and its been like 17 hrs! wtf?!?!

Overall I think it was a good night out - but I don't feel that Tiesto put on a 'performance' - as many have said he was likely tired from the grueling week he had and it showed...

The tracklist was ok but it lacked something that would put it over the top - when he ended his set I felt like - that's it? Damn, where's the kicker?

Prophet, Urban Train & GTR - Mistral were definitely highlights of the night, and Deko-ze was great in that first hour after Tiesto came off the decks, that guy is always full of energy, he tears shit up!

The venue was pretty nice - although it had a better set up last year when Tiesto was there. Coat check was top notch, it moved fast. The overall vibe of the crowd was good considering how packed it was - this party just goes to show that there is demand for Trance in Toronto - all those people who put us down have to be left wondering why Trance parties are always packed. (in comparison, Sasha @ Kool Haus was a ghost town)

Great TA turnout last night! Met up with TranceXtasy & others in line and then the rest of ya at the meetup... Thanks to Hordash for getting me that Rev that put me over the top and SOS2 I'm glad u got inside Other shoutouts to: loconet, halo20, tatgirl, durafei, infinity high, torontotrance, mariachickita, and to everyone else I missed and the half dozen or so new TAs I met

Oh... what's up with the 'private' security @ the back washroom? In the beginning of the night the guy wouldn't let people bring their Revs into the washroom, wtf? Give me a break.

i didnt bother reading others comments of the show... all i care about was that i had a lot of fun.

t'was my second time seeing him and well, lotsa fun. played some songs i was hoping to hear and some others that i didnt really expect (way out west for example...)

my observations for the night included; too much bass at points (meh).. sketchy annoying azn's with no sense of space (even though it was corwded up front. nice vibe in the back corner by the bar and the bug garage door (lotsa room to dance there).

my one complaint. people walking in front of me a lot...just go around me if im dancing...dont cut me off so to speak.

overall i loved the night and had a lot of fun... much more than when i saw armin first time he was back after state01. after that night i swore off going out to events like this for a while...anywhoo...8/10

Originally posted by DJLocoMoco Now on to my good friend Deko-ze, I was so happy when I saw him up there, I had no idea he would be closing off for Tiesto. He must have been a late addition because his name wasn't on the flyer. I've said it before and I'll say it again Deko-ze = #1 Party DJ Having seen him spin numerous times over the past 4 years I can honeslty say that the Deko-ze NEVER dissappoints. He always tears the roof off any club, the man is brilliant on the decks and his energy just makes you want to dance. Deko-ze 11/10

Amen to that!

ps. i know he was tired but no encore????
that was tres dissapointing! He just dissapeared!

Hey Sarah, it was good just not as good as his other performances
ask Simons what he thought about it. haha
Gabe is still sleeping.
