i could stand 15 minutes of his set on Energy, then went to see Corsten who played a slightly less disappointing set

Someone at my work also saw him @ Energy. He actually enjoyed Tiesto's set a lot although he wasn't expecting he would. Maybe you left too early. SvD was a bit disappointing to him.

youre 10 years late. sorry. i was at a samantha fox concert 8 years ago. it was good but i understood i had missed it. you should too.

Yeahhh did you just see Tiesto on Saturday night?

Tiesto is good live... I mean, his new house shit is OK to listen to since it is probably some underground and different shit.... but none of those songs are worth taking home as a gem.

however, the classics trance tracks he plays are always a gem

in every set Tiesto will play at LEAST one trance gem.

I dont give a fuck about what the elitists gonna say but his classics are the shit live

I got a question though.... were the lights at Tiesto hella crazy or what?

I'mma go see him in July

The concept of Energy is that if you don't like something you have a great dj playing in the other room, if there weren't other rooms then i'd have checked him, i came back after one hour and he was playing slightly different music, played a collaboration with Marcel Woods (Don't ditch) which was nice but had that electro pitched sounds i don't like, the same as Zero 76, that supersaws sound fine but then you've 2 minutes of random electro shit.

I've listened to the set broadcasted and wasn't of my taste either. Ferry went too commercial too, i expected that in a festival like this full of trance crackers he would play a mature set, almost no classics apart from some very predictable tracks and instead of playing some of the good stuff he has produced in the last years like Radio Crash or Twice in a blue moon he played the vocal garbage, made of love and beautiful...

SvD was one of the best that night in my opinion, some house some electro, some trance, dubstep, techno... some vocals, some instrumentals... however i see he is the next taking the commercial route.

To me the surprise of the night was Avicii i expected something cheesy and it was but i enjoyed the set a lot

Lol such wit you have. tsk tsk

Yep...This past Saturday, and im still recovering
Lights WERE off the hook, it is very very visual and at times damn near overwhelming.

In years passed, Tiesto has played Vegas numerous times, but, being in the hospitality industry he always played on nights were I would not have been able to take time off work. As well, the days like memorial or labor days, those tickets were around 150.00$. The tickets Saturday were about half that.
So, yes...I was super psyched to finally get a chance after all this time to see him.
As for the poster who replied about classics. The opening set seemed to be alot of his newer arrangements, but...by the mid to end of his sets he was playing all of his old stuff. Surprised as hell to hear at least 4 cuts from Nyana. And to boot a KILLER extended remix of Traffic.

All in all, ??I couldnt have been more pleased,even though ,yes..this was my first time seeing him. I am sure those who have seen him more than once "could" get picky or selective. I, myself was just happy being there

Well, think I should have a listen and see whether I like it or not. Tracks played in a set don't need to be tracks I would play at home, so maybe I'll be surprised.
