Find was indeed played....the other one you mentioned was played earlier on in the night Interstate - I Found You
An awesome night and i great way to forget the last two exhausting weeks writing papers and studying for exams. Was kinda tired when i got there after driving for 6 hours but ran into a bunch of TAs was good to go from then. I moved to the back later on as it seemed a little chiller there, ran into some friends and ended up staying there for the rest of the night.....So glad i didn;t check my coat
Track of the Night for me was Sasha - Expender:eyes: Kurfew will agree with me on this one:D played by Sean Miller...btw this guy is awesome |

"gino concentration: 35%-40%"
Glad i didnt go, i expected that figure above. Plus the "pop trance" crowd. Also, most tunes were expected just as i thought, plus paying 50-60 bucks when i can go enjoy more talented djs for 20... |

I am sitting here crying because I wanted to go to that SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO badly! I hate being just shy of 19! It sucks!
Anyway, my ex just called me and went on for about a half hour telling me how awesome it was. Apparently he made it into the VIP area.
Argh!! I really wish that I could have went. I am for damn sure going to be there for my Birthday. There better be something good goin' on then! |

Also what was with that eleveated thing in the middle of the main room. With people standing there it blocked the view for everyone behind. Alright... enough complaining.

That's what my ex said he was on... |

I know im gonna piss off a lot of people with this comment, but last night was a dissapointment to me.
Tiesto played way too much dark/hard stuff that i didnt like, or really care for. first 2 hours there was nothing that really stood out for me other then ridge walkers.
then he started playing his own stuff. that was great. breda 4pm + heroes + love comes again + lethal industry + traffic. i think that was one of the highlites for the crowd. i also couldnt believe that he dropped voyage, and duende [signum remix], def 2 best songs for me.
the club was like every other time when a big dj comes, overcrowded, but not as bad as some guv nights. atmosphere was pretty good, not too many whistleres thank god.
overall, i have to give the night a 7/10, he was def into it this time, unlike back in june, but me and my friends werent.
PS. does anyone know the name of the track after just be?? great uplifting tune. |

Well I'm glad that I did a couple of smart things...1) I bought my ticket far in advance.I heard that they we're being scalped for up to $200:eyespop: is that true? and 2) I got there at 9:30 to avoid a long line AND to avoid the bull coatcheck fiasco.The line up for the coatcheck at that time was way smaller & I got my coatchecked in like 20 minutes.Any future big event like this & the Docks will have to improve on this...I mean I knew it was gonna be ed up when all I saw we're 2:eek: people checkin the coats...very dumb:rolleyes:
I ran into alot of TAs like Nat, Graham, Frank, and so many others that I forgot all your TA names...sorry about that:( and I ran into other familiar faces that I had not seen in a while..
Sean miller was really good to warm up the crowd.Most of the TAs we're waiting for a glimpse of Tiesto goin up to the DJ Booth but security drew that black curtain & we didn't get to see the GOD himself...oh well...Personally I thought Tiesto played an ok set with a couple of tracks that I loved and I danced a wee bit.Desidel pretty much wrote what I thought of his set so I won't go any further then that...
One thing that I noticed as SOON as I walked in was that dumbass raised platform in the middle of the dance floor...who the s brainstorm was that???....for future refenrence people...do NOT block the dancefloor when you KNOW you are gonna have TONS of people in one small space...
As for the crowds...well...Jayx1 asked why we complain that the Guv gets so rammed but yet at the Docks last nite, we shouldn't complain.I didn't mind it at all because the Docks has room on the outer edges/corners even in the main room and the Guv doesn't.ALso the air at the Guv gets SOO thick and yet the Docks was not that bad I guess because it has more doors/windows hence better air circulation...Yes it was a bit tricky to get through the crowds but ya gotta be polite for one thing (patting on the back, etc...) and I generally go through the middle of the club instead of the edges like near the bar area (THAT was SO rammed).I walked around alot last nite & got around ok but hung out in the back room & there was TONS of room (& fewer ginos:happy2: )...
I basically called it quits around 5am...I was really tired...but all in all...I gave that party a 7 out 10...
Would I see Tiesto again live???....I dunno:conf: |

The coatcheck actually filled up after we stood in line for a good 45 mins waiting. Standing around in there with big winter jackets isn't too good :(
Besides that tiesto was pretty crazy, played a typical set, I enjoyed it. |

HOLLLY ! What a set!
Mind-blowing! Can't wait to get this set, hopefully!!
The opening DJ (Sean Miller?) was pretty damn good as well! I enjoyed his stuff.

Just got home to Kingston from TO. Holy T.A. Nation last night! I met a lot of TA’s last night but didn’t seem to meet up with all the people on the Tiesto Board. Smitty --> I wasn’t even sure if you were there, you always seem to be in front of the DJ at all times and I didn’t see you once!
I’ll keep this as short as I can, as dEsidEL had an awesome review.
Highlights:
• Voyage – Yahel (I’ve been waiting to hear Tiesto drop this for two years):D
• Find – Ridgewalkers (I would have to say that this is the tune of the night. When this tune came on, you could hear everyone singing it and there was an awesome vibe in the room):crazy:
• Lounge Area – This is the first time I had ever been to the Docks and I really liked their set up of the lounge compared to the Guvernment. Just not as crowded, nice sound system.
• 7 Hours of Tiesto!!!! He is my favorite and it’s not that often you get to see your fav. DJ spin for 7 hours!
• I got one of those flyers that were autographed; however I thought I was going to get killed for it. :whip: I was going to give up but thought I would try once more and I actually was able to catch it in mid air!
• Open your Eyes – Nalin and Kane (I was hoping Tiesto would play this and he did. What a freakin classic)
• I found that is was just comfortable and not overcrowded considering it being sold out. With this said, if you were directly in front of the DJ at the beginning of the night, it was crowded and warm (but I’ve been through worse) but if you moved off to the sides, you had room to dance and it was a cool temperature.
• Tiesto’s style! I loved it, different from what he played in June. More hard and dark, but not the whole set, so there was a good mix!
Low Points:
• I felt the crowd pushing was way worse then at the Guvernment. I find that when I’m at the Guv, people are much friendlier about it, but not last night. However this maybe my imagination.
• The worst thing about the night was the whole set up of the coat check. Did they not realize how many tickets they had sold and its winter time so everyone will have a coat to check???? Not only did we wait in the coat check line-up for 45 minutes, right when we got to the door they stated that coat check was full. So being about 30 mins to Tiesto coming on stage, we decided to ditch our coats in the back room behind curtains. I wasn’t really feeling good about the situation, but I didn’t want to take it on the dance floor cause it’s a full length WHITE jacket. This morning when I went to claim my coat, it was gone but my friends coats where there, so I know it was taken! WTF??? :whip: I know that I took the chance of leaving it out in the open but I really didn’t have a lot of options. It was a really nice coat and my favorite. One of a kind. BUMMER! :(
Other then that, I had an amazing night. So good to see a lot of my friends out and other people that I have met at the Guvernment over the last few years. It was really good to meet you Wesjor! :) You and your friends are awesome people and I really enjoyed hanging out with you all night! Also thanks for being the warmth in the lineup. Ask Linzie for my MSN.

Docks owns guv........ first time being there since my high school semiformal. As for the dancing platform, that was the best ever. It was like a dancing trampoline, you didnt even have to dance, it was automatic, in cool. Tiesto was good but nothing really blew me away.... (well maybe except for pound and the work he did on the mixer for till ya drop) I really liked his looping and cuts n' .
I was definatley impressed, only like 2 trainwrecks, not bad. Crowd was awesome , really good vibe, there was times it looked like a full out rave, solid.
P.s. you can thank me and carney for gouryella - gouryella :toothless
(special request from the dancefloor)
sounds like i made the right choice leaving my jacket at home.
Thanks techead for the shots and "tour"
ps. the tour sucked.lol. |

Yes it's true! I witnessed a scalper telling this to a guy while I was in the lineup! |
