Kevin Shiu is a great DJ, flawless mixing and great programming skills he is probably the best prog DJ in BC and one of the best in Canada. He give him total props.

agreed.. he's very technically sound, but his sets are a bit boring at times just my opinion

He's one of the few prog DJs in BC aside from TAs that actually buys shit from the UK and keeps up on good releases. I heard him play a couple of recent whites last time around that will never be released and were extremely limited (Archive - Numb, for one). Overall he makes a great opener for a guy like Tiesto because he plays danceable beats that aren't too energetic, so after a couple hours of that Tiesto comes on and drops his crazy trance and the place goes nuts. You wouldn't want someone like me opening for Tiesto because I'd play stuff that was too similar to what he was playing, and as a result there wouldn't be as much excitement when he came on.

hmm...i have never been to Commodore Ballroom...
is this a club or something? if yes,can anyone tell me something about this place? how is the sound system ...etc.....
also how long is tiesto gonna to spin at aug 15?

thanx for the tips

DJ Sean - You are tottally right, Kevin Shui is a great opener because he knows what he is doing. His set builds all the way till right before Tiesto and his last few tracks get pretty pumping.

Also it would be a career killer if you open for Tiesto playing the same type if not better stuff than he was going to play. That is the ultimate disrespect.

Hegoru - Progressive is boring but I still love it. The last Glamourpuss party got really boring because every DJ was the same darker progressive and after the 4th DJ cam on I left.

But when Kevin opens for Tiesto its always a great set.

isn't commodore ballroom 18+

it better not be.......

Haven't been living in Vancouver very long have you?
