Hey I didn't bash him... well maybe a little heh, I just said that I don't know why people think he's as good as he is. But if you listen to his sets, his mixing is definitely not as good as say... well I've only recently listened to ASOT recently really. But the mixing by Armin is so much better than by Tiesto.
And if I saw Tiesto live I'd love it. Its just that sitting at home sober listening to a Tiesto set and then listening to an AvB set (not an ASOT one) its obvious whos mixing is the best.
Tiesto certainly has made some good productions and remixes though. I think he deserves the credit for those.

I agree that Tiesto has done some quite good remixes. The ones that come to mind for me are:
Delerium - silence (Tiestos ISOS mix)
Although I feel it is not as good as fades sanctuary mix
Jan Johnston - Flesh (tiesto mix)
Yahel - Going up (magikal remake)
Yahel - Open your mind (Magikal remake)
Balearic Bill - Destination sunshine (Tiesto power mix)
Although he has also done several that have not been nearly as good as the originals. For instance:
Yahel and Eyal Barkan - Voyage (Magikal remake)
Johan Gielen - Velvet Moods (Tiestos ISOS remix)
Dumonde - Never look back (tiesto mix)

Who are we to judge who does a better job at DJ'ing when not all of us are professional DJ's. For all I know you are all 15 year olds sitting in moms basement with your walmart brand headphones

Right on! Armin's beatmatching might be better, but that's just it. Tiesto is by far the best artist of the bunch, at least that's my appreciation .
this was a good debate Az and I had about Tiesto a couple of days ago:

I like Tiesto because he is genuinely into the music and feels the emotions. I'm not saying AvB and PvD or whoever don't, Tiesto just has this thing about him that even though he isn't the greatest mixer, he can still rock a party and blow you away.
