I can see deejays experimenting with different genres but the set has to flow....unless you playing somewhere..where everyone is too stoned to care...hehehehe. I mean tiesto played breaks but played a breaks tune then went techno, I mean deejays need to think a bit better imo.

Originally posted by torontotrance I bash because I know and everyone else knows that he is capable of better and he just does not try as hard as he should. I mean he blames trainwrecks on the cdj's, I mean shut the fuck up and say I screwed up and move on. Same with Oakenfold, capable of greater things, same with PvD (tho someone let me know when he decides to play some new records, not the same crap in different orders). I mean if you are an A List deejay making 25K + per gig, you need to give the fans what they want, I mean we don't want to go and hear 3-4 hrs of the same old shit, you pay a premium to see the big names and they should give you what you want (yes they are only human and have their bad days but Tiesto played so poorly for a while (some argue it continues) that he should have stepped back and gone on vacation. Heck, Nick Warren did it and look at him now. I am still a tiesto fan but I'll go back to see him when he decides to put effort into mixing and track selection (hint..i rather have the old tiesto than the current one). Oakenfold is the same (he was KING!, 1999 proves it and look at him now, playing the same old crap)....I own every PvD album cept reflections (which was a dud)...he can do better in production and deejaying. Why can't deejays stop playing the same records and decide to play stuff that others don't and stop settling for poor results. All 3 are capable of greatness and their past sets show that.

I see you got so much to say ... but how come you're never seen anywhere????

do you ever come out at all to these parties?

You see me now and then...I was sick as stated for marco v and tiesto in june....which gutted me. I took some time off from clubbing of late....who knows when you will see out at some club...hell I don't even know....But I figure I know enough about the a list deejays from hearing ppl that saw them and stuff to comment on them.

Are you coming to the TA Anniversary party?

doubt it

I have other prior commitments that I cannot get out of

well ultra spin 4 or that but see sarah, everytime I claim to go to a gig...something bad happens to me, so if you see some dude yelling you rock and it is not yer b.f, it is me...lol....tho I found all my techno stuff

Tiesto ? Who's that ?

Gimme Mark Oliver banging out some trance instead...less wrecks, less cheese and definately less of a hit on the wallet.

*feel free to flame...i never thought Tiesto was all that in the first place*

remember what they tell you in elementary school...it's ok to be different. (aka wierd)

Nah, just kidding. I personally owe Tiesto for getting me into this whole scene (when I first heard Magik 6 in summer of 2000), so I'll always be grateful and he'll always be my favourite. But I do agree that isn't quite as good as he used to be, but he's really not the trainwrecker hack that some of you guys make him out to be.

Tiesto's latest gate crasher and innercity are fully energetic and have great flow in them. Especially the seocnd half of the gate crasher set. The guy can spin, people love that and thats exactly what I would be doing in his place. He is popular, so what, he deserves it.

I dowloaded TIC DVD before new years, six 22+ year old people (I am the only tranceaddict) were jumping all New Years Night @ cottage up north pumping 500 watts of the 3 and half hours jorney twice. Tiesto did my new Years night. The concert is fucking amazing, all the themes and hype of the Kane's Rain on Me was nuts.

I have no clue why there is so much hate for the person who brough 60% of us into trance and keeps on doing his work. I want to see him again and I hope that he will be here too.

I'll admit, i don't really hate Tiesto. I do think he has suffered from over exposure, and that perhaps has skewed his perspective on what the audience wants. Hell, i'm sure most of his fans still adore him as much as they did when he first started getting noticed ( Magik days ). Personally, i credit PVD and Oakie for delivering me into ;a state of trance'. I have had good nights with Tiesto on the decks, but nothing quite stirrs the memories like PVD's 10 hour sets at Twilo back in 99.

Tiesto is still a solid artist ( despite the wrecks which i'm sure every DJ makes ) and a date in Toronto will probably ensure mass hysteria ... so it doesn't really matter what little ole me thinks.

yeah man, I agree. We Tiesto lovers must just feel a certain way I guess. As corny as it sounds, there is a genuine connection between Tiesto and his fans that I don't think any other Dj has right now. Even if you don't like Tiesto, you guys all have to admit that a lot of people feel his Magik even if you don't/cant/don't want to.

Boo hoo, Tiesto plays cheeze, he trainwrecks, he doesnt have flow, he didnt deserve the No 1 position...

for fucks sake, live with it, hes one of the best...he has done more for the Trance genre than most, but some of you cant appreciate that becuase you spend your time analzying how his finger turns a transition knob on his mixer.

Cant wait to see you Tiesto haters when he comes...
