Originally posted by Mr.Mystery Wow, what a trip that was. Just got back from the airport and I'm exhausted... I was there on friday. It was one of the best experiences of my life. I don't give a shit what you armchair kids thought of it coming from some web stream somewhere. People can say what they want about the mixing, that was hardly the point of the show anyway. The man can put on a great show and keep an amazing atmosphere on such a big venue which isn't easy at all. I wouldn't call myself a Tiësto "fan" (most of his recent productions have been a bit of a hit and miss - although hearing 25 000 people sing Love Comes Again was quite nice ) but I enjoyed myself regardless.

Sounds awesome. No offense, but I'm surprised at such a positive review about Tijs from you.

And to the rest of the people in this thread, arguing; shut the fuck up. Some people liked it, some people didn't. It's as easy as that. You're not going to change one's own taste.

As far as mixing goes, I'm going to go on the defense really quick. At a live event, mixing doesn't matter as much as some would like, and quite frankly when I'm seeing a DJ live I don't pay attention to the mixing as much as I pay attention to the atmosphere and the individual tracks themselves. If it's a great mix, and happen to love it, great. If it's a poor mix, I don't care.

You only paid attention to it at home because you weren't surrounded by 20,000 people dancing their asses off; you were at home, sitting in your chair waiting to criticize a DJ for doing what he's supposed to do; impress the people at the event, not you on the other side of the world.

My thoughts exactly!
