Review - Tiesto @ Glow 11/1/03
First off let me apoligize to everyone on this board for missing my own meetup. I seriously feel like the biggest jerk ever. Circumstances beyond my control didn't have me even getting into DC until shortly after 9. So we opted to just head right over to the club, and aviod a long line. Next time, these "circumstances", won't be riding with us, unless they are on time. But again, Sorry to all that I couldn't even show up, that is just terrible, and I should be taken out and shot for it.
Now, on to the night! Tiesto's set was freakin' amazing!!! His mixing was dead on all night!!! Even better than it was in May! He destroyed that crowd! But I agree, the set definitely didn't take me on any sort of musical journey, but it was still great none the less. Didn't recognize many tunes, which I have found, is much more fun then knowing every track he plays. Highlights of the night were of course Beautiful Things, Traffic, and Faithfullness. Also I really enjoyed hearing Andy Hunter - Go (Antillas Remix) <--track 26 I believe, and always nice to hear Rank 1 - Breathing(Airwave 2003)(Breaks Dub). Noticibly missing though was his remix of Adagio for Strings?!?!?!?! Why the hell didn't he play that??? I thought that song would have been a lock to hear last night! I can't believe Tiesto just jetted at the end! What was that about??? Didn't sign and autographs or shake any hands???? That seemed very UN-Tiesto like to me. Great job by Pete to finish the night off, although I thought that it was sorta strange. Good job mixing Pete and playing some good tracks. Unfortunately, the energy in the club seemed to drop several noches after he came on. Guess I'm just still kinda shocked he didn't come back out and throw on 1 more to polish the night off. But I still had a great time, and now will be sore as hell all week.
Mad props from me to the Panorama crew out front last night. I had an issue with 2 of my friends not being there when they started letting us in, but they checked in all my online tix, and then let them in when they did get there. Thanks a lot guys! You're the best! In fact, I thought last night seemed to be the most organized out front I've ever seen it.
Glow virgins, Corrie & Megan, had an awesome first experience. They really enjoyed Tiesto's set, as I knew they would. So I'm very glad they had a great night was well. You know its always good to hear, "so when's the next one?" On the trip home.
Shout outs to Glitter, sky, Mario, Sergio, Nubreed and the rest of the regular glow crowd. Sorry if I didn't say hi, I probably either didn't see you or didn't recognize you. I didn't really see any TA's to be honest. I know they were there, but I was hanging in the back for most of the night, just not enough room up front. The only time I even bothered to try was at the end of Tiesto's set, and even then it was still too crowded to move.
Apoligies again to glitter, sky, and Mario, I know you guys made the meetup, not sure about anyone else. Never again, I promise.
Great night, and I'll see you guys at Armin!
