Well, it was quite a journey for me. I flew from SF to NYC for one night to see Tijs and here he is! I'm back to San Francisco, he is back to Netherlands but memory stays.
Finally i got back my ability to walk and hear - it's not an easy job to be Tiesto's go-go dancer LOL
This thread is a disaster - 5% about the show, 95% about "would it be good or bad to allow +18 attend the club?" Well, I started to go out when i was 12 but it was loooong time ago and it was in Europe. Crowd is def different there but this is not a point. I think it's not a matter of age. If it comes to the events like this it will always be crowded. Honestly I have never seen dance floor at Crobar THAT packed. And as somebody already mentioned - you see not only 18 yo faces but grey haired men as well.
It was an awesome awesome night. It was a big surprise for me to find out that HE is finally coming and I was really excited to see Tijs again.
It was a mistake to go and dance on the floor. I ended up with 18 bruises on my body LOL so I had to go back on the stage.
It def wasn't "Love Comes Again" night. It was hard, hard techno trance night but different from Washington DC.
There are some people working on IDing the tracks because i'm not as good in that as they are so... let them do this job. I was enjoying myself, listening to a "new" Tiesto, talking to people, dancing so hard that all my body still hurts.
And i want to apologize for not satisfying everybody's requests. I passed a few times by the stage getting some flyers and cd's for Tijs to sign but physically i couldn't get all of them. Sorry guys. I remeber myself trying to get my cover signed and i was in paradise when it happened so i know how important it was for many of you.
Mike, did he sign your records? I lost you somewhere in the mad crowd but it was a great moment when everybody was yelling "T-es-too, T-es-too" you were standing in the middle of the dance floor with Records above your head ( for people who don't know Mike - he is a giant) and everybody was pointing at you. I felt like everybody wanted Tijs to see you and sign those records for you. He did see you. In that moment i saw that it wasn't a crowd that just came to have fun, it was a crowd came to see Tiesto because they all cared.

And.... it was a funny moment, when we were leaving a club security escorted us from the back door and.... people were waiting for Tijs to come out from that door. They were trying to get some more pix, but Tijs didn't stop, we jumped in a limo and left.
Pix - http://fota.mota.ru/26162 or http://photobucket.com/albums/v688/lanaka/Tiesto/. PM me for video.

And pls, i need help, there is a second pix from the end - two guys are sitting on the back seat of a limo and one guy is showing me "V". Could you pls ID this guy, i know he is a famous DJ from Montreal, his name is David (i think). LOL. I would really appreciate this.
Luv everybody. mhua!

I don't remember mentioning Guvernment in my post... being someone who lived in TO and has partied at the Guv beyond countless times, the clubs biggest problem has nothing to do with gino thugs and people who are under 21... the real problem always has to do with the Asian triads they attract (a large chunk of the club on any given spin saturday).

If your view of the TO scene is what you've experienced at the Guv, then you really need to check out some of the other clubs the city has to offer.

Crowd, horrible yes, but expected. Tiesto, good, wasn't expecting to be assaulted with a hard set like that, but I loved every minute of it. Best part of the night was catchin one of the signed dvds he threw into the crowd

some pictures are up here.

i didnt go to this but a lot of u guys said that it was a harder tech and trance filled set, but judging from the songs on this tracklist, i think NYTA's need to get a re-education on the harder styles (Cosmic Gate in NYC 4/1, Scot Project in NYC 5/29) because ive heard at LEAST a good 3/4 of those songs and arent that hard at all, idk what u guys are saying

Yea, sometimes I feel like a fool for bringing vinyls, but w/e. was a shot in the dark trying to get them signed. Unfortunately, didnt work out that great :-p. No worries though

The crowd wasn't that bad. I mean it could be worse. I had a blast partying with everyone. Tiesto's set wasn't all that great. I enjoyed Serge's set way better
