Don't worry hun- we didn't have any personal time w/tijs. That was just techead taking us on a tour of the club. I think many of THOUGHT we were gonna get to see him, but that wasn't the case. |
I stand corrected (I was misinformed). Thanks...........it just made the coat check thing little bit more bearable in my mind.....b/c I should of expected it for a Tiesto event.
I had a better time at Tiesto than I did at the Guv for PVD.
Looking forward to some Armand and Ferry to follow up :D
Cheers yall and good night. I'm finally going for that sleep I've missed. ZzZzZzZzzzzzzzzzzzzzz |

Oh yah, and anyone calling me a tiesto hater: STFU in advance.
I dont hate the guy, never did, hes the second DJ that i fell in love with (Sasha came first, hence why i was mind blown when Sean Miller played Xpander....imo, the greatest trance production, OF ALL TIME.)
Dont gimme "real tijs fans will always love him"
BULL.
Real fans give constructive criticism for their idols to improve.
I still love the guy, ive got some live sets theyre amazing, top notch, but im NOT liking his current productions.
As a DJ, yeh mon, he kicks ass still in my top 6 favs (Oakenfold will always be my #1 :D, the rest i just dont know, theyre equally good i suppose?) |

and u gotta agree that his best set EVER was at space 2002. simply the best of the best. i think i listened to it more then a million times, without getting tired of it
..but ya i dont like his current productions either. seriously its just not the same as in my memory and other past tunes. the best tune of his new stuff is just be (antilla mix). |

So what your really saying is:
Oakey will always be my #1.............cuz I'm a real fan and will always love him
Isn't that what you called earlier as a BUL line?
That's confusing :conf:
IMO Oakey sold out a long time ago........but then I don't profess to be his devoted fan, so I suppose my constructive criticism doesn't count in your eyes.
Let peace be with you dude :toothless |

not ALL of his new stuff is bad, i actually like "Forever Today" but the rest of his stuff.......eeeeeeeeeeeeh.....wow.
If you listen to Tiestos style from like, 2003 and before, its TOTALLY different from todays, and only real trance listeners/tiesto lovers will be able to admit that.
Oh yah, the success of "Love Comes Again" is almost entirely due to BT, the greatest producer that has touched all sorts of instruments. Which reminds me, Tiesto had major success when working in collaborations: Gouryella w/ Ferry Corsten, and Armin w/ Major League - Wonder? |

No, i never said anything like that. Oakeys got faults, but if u want me to point them out, ill do so *cough*bunkka*cough* if u ask.
Hes my favourite because hes always had EXTREME highs despite crashing and burning. More importantly, the style he plays is exactly what *I* like to hear.
Dont treat my personal preference as if im speaking for everyone else. |

just got back in to rochester and what can i say ... the vibe at the docks was just unbeleivable ... sean miller played a gr8 warm up and when tiesto hit the decks the place just went nuts ... tiestos set was good but nothing special ... i thought his mixing was very good considering his recent history for trainwrecking... he dropped some quality tunes (yahel voyage being the tune of the night for me) a few of which really got me going and bad enough to catch some ta's mocking my dance moves out the corner of my eye .. i thought that was pretty funny but cmon guys cut me some slack here ....
it was nice to meet up with some of the ta's ... tatgirl, rabbitjoker,vertigo, starsearcher and ofcourse partEgurl and her crew btw linz thanks a ton for hookin us up with the tickets, doubt this nite would have happened otherwise .....
the coatcheck was a huge disappointment, it took like some 40 mins to check in and another 40 to check out and one of my friends glasses got stolen from his coat ... and watching the people go at each others throats wen tijs was throwing in autogrpahed flyers was absolutely disgraceful ..looool guys snatching them out of girls hands and screaming its mine and im not giving it to no1:rolleyes: ... i just stood by on the side hoping one would come my way but not happening on this nite ... ah well toronto parties seldom disappoint and this definately was not one of them ... tiesto played from 1245 till 715 and thats not something we see to often in north america... i take back my earlier comment that i wouldnt be surprised if he spins less than 6 |

Good times had- best part was hanging with the TA's / friends along to some awesome tunes.
Gonna try to keep it brief...
Positives:
- AMAZING opening set from Sean Miller. "Expander" totally owned!
- Free Rev for patrons, & free shots from Techead for the TA's (very sweet of you)
- Good, fun crowd
- Clean womens washrooms, no waiting
- Wore only a sweatshirt going in, easily tied around the waste, hence avoiding the coat check disaster.
- Meeting lots of TA's, and seeing many that haven't been out in a long time.
- Great looking dancers / costumes (aside from some really overdone boob jobs)
- Seeing fans that have come from great distances to see him. Holland, Miami, Vancouver to name a few.
- really liked the upper level room, tho I only saw it for 5 seconds on the tour.
- the liquid nitrogen cool down system. Too bad it wasn't used much after Tiesto went on (ok, it's noisy), but wondered why it wasnt nearly as powerful as they are at other clubs?
- thx to Caroline (muzzybear) for hosting the pre and post hangout.
Negatives:
- Crowd chanting for Tiesto for at least an hour of Sean Miller's set. Just plain rude. Sean was rocking the house- they shoulda appreciated that on its own.
- Bad placement of DJ booth. I mean it looks great, but it's not condusive for viewing. It should have been on the stage, so the whole length of the club could view him, not just the people in the center. Which leads to my next complaint...
- BAD placement of that platform- it should be removed.
- Would've liked for video coverage of Tiesto on the monitors. The only place with some dancing room was to the side of the booth, where we had no view, but a video screen was above our heads, mostly showing scenes from Bollywood movies, lol. No view of the booth = having difficulty of feeling the energy from the DJ. It wasn't til the club cleared out around 5am where I could move onto the dance floor finally.
- Sound- thought it was pretty muffled.
- Scary packed on the dance floor in front of the booth when Tijs started. Had to claw to get out.
- Crazed Tiesto fans mauling each other for autographed flyers and for destroying the headphones & record that was tossed out. What a waste...
- Not remembering about 5 people who came up to me to say hi, but I still end up playing it off. Some I recognised their faces, but couldn't place them, others I just had no clue. I feel soooo bad how everyone remembers me (& by name), and sometimes I just blank. :(
Can't do any shoutouts (to many to name) but you guys rock!! really nice to see Che & Wurm again. |
