Originally posted by djdimensions yeah that was pretty cool theyre were a few good tracks he did play tho. like i said it was a good nite to chill with my budies i had always wanted to c him live and never again.Remeber his mixing back when he was GOOD.Thats the tiesto i wanted to see

Im surprised looking from the tracklist that you are gonna continue to blaze on the guys mixing.

Seems like there was a break in the music for a performing artist at least every half hour into the show.

So how can you judge his flow or mixing style when he is restricted in this rather unique manner?

Just thought i'd point that out. Even at the dutch TICs his mixing sucked ass. The DVD doesnt quite show that. I think people going in expecting some seamless mixes are pretty silly. Its a TIC after all. Your gonna get breaks and stoppages in the flow frequently.

The sound system was one of the best especially for a huge place like the sports arena. I went to many events there and this sounded like at a club. The production, lighting, video, fire, performer, the confetti’s... were top notch.
The crowd was so ON it was amazing to see that sea of people bouncing. Everyone look happy and seems to have a great time.
The sports arena staff was very well organized and the drinks were priced reasonably.
One of the best concert I ever went to.
I had a fantastic time! This was a great show

WOW, out of everyone's response so far, no one sounds like they were blown away or anything (SCG doesn't count....groupie... :-p). Feel safe to think I will never regret going.

A break every 30 minutes? What happened to the promise of an uninterupted set.

hahaha good point davet!!

we asked the same question ourself... dont really get what was UNINTERRUPTED at all...
the guy would throw down like 3 hard ass tracks and then all of a sudden shut it off and go to these random hanging dancers and stop the whole set
um if i wanted to see hanging dancers, i would go to cirque du soleil
i went to see TIESTO in CONCERT, and saw tiesto on and off with a buhnch of other random interruptions.

the one thing i will say is that the sound was pretty fucking amazing.
big props to them on that.

but yeah, the only awesome part was the sound, the cheap drinks and...
well thats it

the production that they bragged so much about was WEEEEEEEAAAAAKKKK

just green lasers?@?@?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! are you fucking kidding me?!?!? Tiesto in Concert and they couldnt afford to hook up some color lasers and actually give people some REAL visuals instead of a STANDARD plain neon green laser that you can find in any typical nightlcub like avalon ( and actually avalons are even better) doing a fan the whole night?!?!??!?!!? woooooppppeeeddooooo
the lighting also SUCKED. i mean there was a shit load of new lights dont get me wrong, but they were totallly out of synch with tiesto, but maybe they just couldnt keep up with his trainwrecks hahahahahahahah
and there was only 1 video screebn???? what!?!?!?!?!?!?
if you go to a REAL concert, you actually get 2-5 screens usually. so that was totally stupid and cheapooooo of them

the dj booth SUCKED ASSS. im sorry, but the ones from the TIC and TIC2 were wayyyyyyyy better then this ghetto bow.
they triue to put all these screens around him, but the screens were facing almost the cieling so no one on the floor could get any use out of it anyway, stuppppppid...


then they have this other stuuuupid mesh sheet hanging in front of the ONLY p;rojection screen which was behind tiestos booth and so you could BARELY see what was on the screen clearly.. kinda defeats the purpose of a screen.

the breaks were just way too much. how the hell are you gonna stop a flow of a dj? how stupid.

and i dont wanjna hear anyone say , "OH, you should cut him some slack, because there were breaks in the set and so it messed up his flow" because um heloooooooooooooo!!!!!
IT WAS TIESTOS OWN CONCERT!!!!!!

he could do ANYTHING he wanted.

he obviously APPROVED these dancers, these acts, these annooying ass interuptions, etc
and you know what??/ I bet he approved that stuff just so that he could get breaks from TRAINWRECKING and thinking maybe he could distract the crowd every little bit and do some other act to take away the attention off of his terrible mixing.

yes his track selection was pretty decent, but even with that, it was hard to enjoy since the "flow" kept stopping, not to mention when im goign to see the "#1 DJ in the world for 3 years in a row", i expecdt to see and hear better mixing than the average LOCAL dj.

maybe since he was going to make a killing off of all of us, he could have taken a day or two to .... practice????

that is exactly what my husband said!!

All in all, a very good fucking night!! All the people bouncing, smiles all around and people dancing like mad...how could one not enjoy that? Why do you have to over analyze and just accept it for what is was...a concert. 10,000 plus people all there to listen to 1 guy. the 1 guy you have in common with all those people. THATS PRETTY DAMN AMAZING!

Last night was definitely a top event in eyes. It surpassed our nights in Ibiza and last year seeing Tiesto at Space for WMC. To see Tiesto in a club is not an option anymore because its total chaos inside. This night will be hard to top in my mind.

Tiesto still plays As The Rush Comes?

That's pathetic.
