Followed with the comment "just because youve produced a few good tunes doesnt make you a DJ"
(i feel a TA flame war coming on LOL)
For the record: RELAX these are my opinions... you are entitled to have your own...
There are two types of people in this world: the first go out there and make great things happen for themselves, the second sit there and discuss their actions with a jealous look in the eyes. So with that said, my question for you is: how do YOU justtify being the second?
I agree with BTG on that. Seriously though, my question would be:
how do you choose what tracks you will play in a set? (seeing as he changed his "style" completely...I know the reason for that but I want to know specifics of when he does a set how he thinks, because he lost me as of 2002...)

He answered that question about a 1,000,0000 times already in SO MANY INTERVIEWS...hahahaha I think he's gonna snapp if they ask him that again...in his words...
The first few tracks are pre planned and then he just follows teh crowd and reads it off the crowd...
When it comes to CDs it's all pre-planned due to legal and copyright issues
^^^^^^^ EVERY dj "reads off the crowd" after planning the first few tracks. I meant for example why he chooses to drop say a techno track and then right after something progressive that does NOT go with the previous techno track, etc.

ask him if he remembers me and my sweet birdie from last year at the docks
I'm not sure why or if for some reason that it's only happens when I have seen him but , the first time I saw Tiesto he showed up 90 mins late for his set and he walked off the stage 1hr early. And his set wasn't even that amazing. And last time I saw him his mixes where way off so maybe it's just me but I expect a lot more from the #1 DJ in the world. So my question would be ..... Why is it that you just seen like anyother DJ ?

its cos he IS just another dj...the only reason why hes #1 is cos over 3/4 of his sets consist of popular tracks....
i have another question....i always wondering if when they are djing if they see people dancing on the dance floor...and get impressed still by some of the dancers.....? or if they even notice them.
