I wouldn't say that at all. Actually that isn't even opinion, it's just plain wrong.
Firstly there was a massive blend between old & new material in there, along with exclusive remixes/productions made specifically for the event. Secondly there were 3 live vocal performances throughout the night from Andain, Kane & Jan Johnston. Thirdly they put on coregraphed themed dance shows at various intervals throughout the night, each representing a certain part of the world... with live musical performances and spectacular displays. I thought it was excellent how the set material was blended with the ambient/world music in said intervals. How many other Tiesto sets have you seen with said events? No seriously, I'm keen to know.
Obviously if you don't like Tiesto then there's no point in going is there. Same as if you didn't like a particular rock band you wouldn't go and see them either. I personally love his blend of music & set progression and was very impressed by the DVD footage of last year's event, so would happily spend 55 Euros (which fyi works out as $66 USD, not 100... [click] ) on the night, if I could afford to fly over & stay in holland again (already done it once this year!).
