Best Show You Ever been to

For me it probably has to be when Tiesto played the venue in Athenas or Gareth Emery's killer set in Indonesia

1. Thai local dj's @ fullmoonparty nov05 kohphangan, thailand

3. dj mayuri @ atmosphere kuala lumpur, malaysia
4. felix the housecat @ sepang f1 circuit, malaysia
5. dj eugene vs dj justin b2b @ tempo events private party

my top 5 in terms of music, atmosphere and overall fun rating.

Old Miami Afters @ DEMF 2007

Posted by RJT on Jul-19-2007 18:47:

For EDM, it's probably Danny Howells on 12/30/06 at Vision in Chicago, the Sasha/Luke Fair show at Glass during WMC 2006, or Lollapalooza 97.

The *best* show I've ever been to though is without a doubt Phish @ Big Cypress NYE 1999.

The Chemical Brothers live on my 18th birthday, followed in at a close second by Nortec Collective, Panoptica and Smash TV doing live PAs at a small, intimate club.

Gah. So many!

Only going to list some big name DJ gigs from last year or so
-Labour of Love 2006: Guv main room: Miss Nine, Luke Fair, Hernan Cattaneo, John Digweed. Prog-gasm. Finished the night with 4 hrs of classic Ferry Corsten.
-Markus Schulz @ Armada Night, Kool haus, May 07: Not the typical Schulz trancier set, but full on 'Markus Schulz afterhours prog'. I remember walking away from the Guv muttering 'wow' for 30 mins.
-Andy Moor @ Fluid Lounge, Toronto, May 07: Small party. About 100 ppl purely in it for the love of Moor music. Place goes totally apeshit for 3 hours.
-Steve Lawler@Skybar, the Guvernment, July 07: Another legendary Lawler@Skybar set. Lawler starts at the Guv main room with some dark and dirty prog, but kills Toronto with superstar set on the rooftop of the Guvernment. Quote of the night - Steve Lawler: I'm gonna play one more tune because I'm so fucked!

Honourable mention goes to TOTA BBQ/Block Party, Sept 06.
A yearly tradition in TOTA, coinciding with Labour Day weekend and Labour of Love event.
Last year, TOTA takes over a street in Toronto and full day of drunken shenanigans (in the middle of rainstorm) while TOTA DJs rock it out like superstars.

Area 2 at Jones Beach, 2002 - first time ever seeing Tiesto and Digweed live, Tiesto played an amazing set with all these awesome tunes from the time period thrown in (including Mindcircus!), and then I got Tiesto's autograph, too.

I got in at 11:30 and he was already on. He played till 7:30...one of the most amazing sets I have ever seen.

One of the technics broke halfway through, record just stopped.

He's a fucking legend for sure, absolutely recommend seeing him @ Rex, it's his house when he's on the decks.

It wasn't just Karl Hyde. The music itself was blistering and alive. The whole performance was simply immersive; old favorites sounded better than I've ever heard them. The live vocals only amplified this. It all dripped of power and quality from start to finish. The crowd clearly understood this. I've never seen so genuine a reaction. I didn't sense much idol worship; everyone knew it was just damn excellent music, including the performers.

Funny thing it was my first night of proper EDM

PvD, Ferry Corsten, Francesco Farfa, Jim Masters, Antoine Clamaran, Jim Masters, Benni Bennassi, Wally Lopez & half a dozen more spanish tech & house dj's.

All this in a night in Barcelona for 20.000 people, the entrance was �20 and drinks were unlimited (and free )

Close-followed by Trance Energy 2005.
