-- Why does almost everyone think that Tiesto suck?
Pages (6): « 1 2 3 4 [5] 6 »
That IS badass. Yeah let us know all, man. And have fun (this is too late but wth)
After I`ve listened Tiesto live I can clearly say that he was nearly satisfactory..Everyone was expecting much better! The reason for this disappintment is a short set, not lively shows, disconnection of Tiesto from the crowd etc..I think Tiesto changes his performance due to crowd..Even though there was a huge crowf oberthere lat night, he ENJOYS playing at famous events like GlobalGathering, Sensation, Creamfrields, Dance Valley etc..but anyway many people paid for him and went there to see him performing usual great set but he didn`t do that...he cared Cyprus as a training gig and played many unknown tracks and remixes...he also played some of his famous tracks to uplift the crowd though...anyway this is my opinion! i also seek your views mates!
I think that every DJ has its own bad and good sets. Can you imagine how often these DJ's travel... and each time people expect them to perform at the highest level. I think it is just impossible... of course, it would be nice if every DJ played each his set as "the last one in his life" but they are people too... They get tired, they have different moods and etc.
Let's just be thankful for what these DJ's do.
yeah i understand u and i think like that also but there are some musts that a dj can do..and personally, i know Tiesto as a very good stage performer..For example, three weeks before Armin was here and he performed incredible..communication with people etc..Tiesto too does hand moves, raises his hands towards crowd..but he didn`t do those that night...but he played good...many tracks that we didn`t know...many remixes..many of them were`satisfactory` but some of them were very good!! Anyway I don`t see Tiesto as bad because he is one of the best still!! His most disapponting point probably was his short set and leaving the stage with a very sharp ending...all the people screamed one more and one more but he didn`t care...all the people stayed all their hands up and jumping! he might end up with a Silence though! anyway thanks Tiesto for coming to Cyprus...

Probably, the best Tiesto's performance that I've witnessed so far was @ club Space in Miami during WMC 2005. He played 4 hours set; and he just drove people crazy... 
I must agree on the fact that a dj doesn't allways perform @ his (her) best. this is only human....
BUT:
when you pay top dollar for a show you should expect a top show and NOTHING LESS!!!
so no excuses for anybody being human.. if you expect people to pay (way too much) for a party, you should be able to give them quality (ALWAYS!!!)
personally, Tijs is a very nice guy, but as a dj (read: performing artist) he's way different.... that's very understandable... if he would be his charming self all the time, he'd be burnt down by now...and to comment on an earlier post: requesting a record with a dj. is like telling him: your recordchoice sux, take this record, I know it better then u... INSULT. you don't tell a surgeon which blade to use when he's operating... (@least I hope not!)
and finally: when jetlags are being used as an excuse, I can only say one thing...: fly in a day early... take more time to rest... do less shows or use some drugs... give people quality... (quality is NOT a matter of taste, mind u) 
just another dutch opinion...
rspct!!
Here are a few photos from Tiesto`s gig in Cyprus:

paul_van_dyk_live_on_BBC1_from_cafe_mambo_ibiza_6_8_99. This 25 minute set kicked ass.
PvD @ gatecraher summer sound system - 2nd best club nite ever.
PvD @ global gathering 2005 overshadowed all.
He gave for an angel and forbidden fruit.
Juz a couple of examples why he is one of the best dj/producer.
And fuck who cares if a dj is rude or wateva!
Are you here for music or getting a treatment ... u want him to come and spoonfeed you cereal...
Close ur eyes and trip on!
And who the fcuk are you to tell them what to play???and who are you to tell them that they suck???
If you think u r really good judges, why dont u start spinning some shit and get to a place where they are!!
Now there can be many mistakes technically by djs,
Their track selection mite not be the same as what is running in your mind.
Coming back to being rude and all that ...
aint ur mom dad rude to you or vice versa ...
And the music a dj plays is the biggest interaction between a dj and the crowd...y on this blue earth(as per the pics by NASA) do u want a dj to move his hands .... gosh he has gotta play for 3 to 8 hours .... y would he wanna waste his energy by dancing.
I understand some djz dance throughout their set cuz they know their music only will not move the crowd.
But when sasha danced at beaunes aires recently it looked sexy on him.
It is just an added benefit.
And who says PvD does not move behind his decks ... LFA 2005... chk out the pics on TA.
Just to show you that Pvd moves and when he moves he makes sure u get goosebumps watching him.
Check out sasha baby in tht pic.
The track being played tat time is Lostep - Burma.

| Originally posted by wackadoo Couldnt be put better! Tiesto IMO is still an amazing DJ & because he continues to push the envelope he gets bagged on. People say hes all about the money, Tiesto makes so much money. Well sorry to say it but if any of you were in his shoes, what would you be doing? This is his career and with any career, what is the point? To make money! Get over it and move on. |

| Originally posted by Guerrilla Recently, I have been reading a lot of comments about DJ Tiesto and it appeared to me that a lot of people are convinced that Tiesto sucks. Why does almost everyone feel so negative regarding this DJ? He plays a very good trance music; definately, not all his sets are perfect but most of them are very high quality. He has amazing shows where people just go crazy and etc... What is so bad about Tiesto? If Tiesto sucks, then what DJ does not?  |

| Originally posted by wackadoo Of course it had to be the trance nemesis responding to my thread! The envelope includes but isnt exclusive to his 'In Concert' shows. His album Just Be, countless remixes, merchandise, The Olympics, Disneyland, TMF Music Awards, etc. The list is endless! And if you missed the end of my post or had a hard time understanding it I will restate it "Get over it and move on." |

| Originally posted by Guerrilla I agree that ISOS 4 CD2 is not one of the best Tiesto's productions. But it is not sufficient enough to negatively judge Tiesto as a DJ. You can actually say that all DJ's suck if you base your opinion only on one of their albums. Paul van Dyk, Ferry Corsten, Armin van Buuren, Sasha, and etc. have albums that are not that great. So, all of them suck (according to ur point of view)??? And it does not look cool when somebody says that Tiesto sucks, simply because it is not true. A DJ sucks when he or she has no skills at all but still keep playing... And Tiesto has a lot of skills as well as Armin van Buuren, Paul van Dyk and many others. It is just matter of taste. |
. IMO i loved every armin album i have ever purchased. And as Dj's get older, not every one of them will stick with his prime. Tiesto's mixing used to be pwnage. 1999 was an ownage year and so was 2000. I loved the another day in the office dvd and i have it and watch it. Some of his sets like dance valley and kremlin hq when he played members of mayday were awesome.

Tiesto does not suck. Everybody has his ups and downs, even the number 1 DJ of the world.
