PERSONAL REVIEW

His set started at 21:32 and finished at 03:32 (360 minutes exactly as advertised!).

It was basically the same show as in L.A. last August (I'm told), just with a different tracklist. I thought that the production was very impressive (at $500,000, it better be!), but I found the non-vocal performers (dancers, etc) distracting--in a bad way

The sound system was really good (for a non-audiophile).

Allegations of Tijs's trainwrecking are GREATLY exaggerated

The floor was packed most of the time, but a good 2/3 of the seats were empty!

The midnight countdown was over 1 minute late The midnight live performance of Just Be didn't sound too good from the concourse...

Getting in with ticket in hand took mere seconds; no searches

TAs present: AdictaAITrance, bluelimitd, clubheaven, eltomas, groovedaddy21, in2muzikk, julesla929, mar46017, nerdgrl416, pbo, rizen, RobertStern, sheffy, starboy, stefanoc, Trancelover24, tru-Mac, vondewey, wackadoo, zachzama, yours truly. Non-TA MySpacers present: Chet, ~*Dani*~, Derwin, NurseFeelGood (and her wheelchair-bound "patient" you all know from Spundae), YourNaughtyGirl. Others I didn't list, please speak up!

Got a chance to talk to Jes briefly backstage That was about the only good thing about the VIP package. Bar lines were really long; food was gone quickly (as was champagne at midnight--not that I care of course ); not enough seating; too cold compared to rest of arena; front-row seat to people being taken outside unconscious Not worth the extra $200 IMO, especially since GAs were allowed to get as close to the stage as VIPs (one half of the span of the stage each, and seats on both sides); not what the flyer said Plus, it wasn't too hard to squeeze by the old ladies guarding one of the 2 VIP entrances Oh, and the T-shirt was the one from the L.A. concert with only one size available (large)

After the end of the show, long wait for a taxi in the cold outside Orleans, and off to the after-hours parties: first Rubber with Matt Darey at the House of Blues (Mandalay Bay), then Spundae with Judge Jules at the Empire Ballroom (ex Utopia). I will start one new thread for those later this week if no one has beaten me to it by then.

On a more personal note, I guess I would have enjoyed the night more if I had had my closest clubbing friends there with me (instead of at Spundae in L.A.)... but as I look back, it was a really great night for trance music regardless I'm very happy this was the NYE event I chose to attend.

Most of the other half were pretty good. Please contribute if you know them! After that, off to the after-hours parties: first Rubber with Matt Darey at the House of Blues (Mandalay Bay), then Spundae with Judge Jules at the Empire Ballroom (ex Utopia). Anyone wants threads for those?

MY TIESTO PICTURES CLICK HERE

I was so excited for this night! Especially since I was not going to this show until about a week before the show! Started my night with no Alcohol since earlier in the day, I had to
force myself to (vomit) in order to feel better. Those are the results of drinking too much
while enjoying great music played by Paul Van Dyk.

So I went down the strip at about 4pm or so to get an extra battery and more memory for
my camera. Well this almost ruin my night took me about 4 damn hours to get through the stupid strip! To my luck the freaking train shuttle was not working from Excalibur to
Luxor. Then this damn hooker wanted to party with me and my friend. I was not looking for that type of fun specially since I would have to pay for it and I was running late for
Tiesto!!!

Made it back to the room at about 8:20pm had to charge the new battery.
Got ready and left to party at the Orleans arena at around 9:00pm. The place
was packed when I got there. They where playing some wack music, I think
it was just a recorded mix. The Vibe and the crowd where all just rights. At
about 9:30pm the lights went off, the screen turn on and the INTRO begin!!!
After the video fireworks went off and Tiesto appear! It was so amazing.
The floor was packed and I try as hard as I could to squeeze to the front of the
Stage. It was a nightmare but the people where friendly. The show was amazing and definally worth the trip to Vegas along with the $118 price tag for a ticket!

The might night countdown was amazing right after this beautiful girl who I am guessing is Kristy Hawkshawn came out to sing “Just Be”. It was just the perfect song
To start the new years! The night ended with to my surprise Mindcircus just as it did
With Paul Van Dyk!

I recorded so much and will post all the video as soon as I can fix some technical difficulties..

Hmm, I was told that it wasn't her, and I wouldn't exactly describe her as "beautiful"...

I thought the concert was good...personally I liked the LA show better, but I still had a blast. Maybe because of the booze. Heh, I still don't like that he freaking doesn't talk at all...its making me dislike him a little. The traclist was good..and the environment was great. I have a pic of some guy that I don't even know...maybe he's a member here, but who knows. I'll post my pics later.

It was fun, but honestly Matt Darey and Judge Jules were better.. especially Jules
