I right there with ya on this one!
On a different note, I didnt see anyone allllllllll night. Well, actually I ran into someone I never thought I would see...Dave Dean. I hope I wasnt too f'ed up. lol |
Hi Sylvia (it's Trin! :D ) I was hoping to run into you but nada! Glad you enjoyed the night. Anyway... most of us went to enjoy the music with people we know and don't know. We make the best of what we have and can while we still can. It's funny to read all the negative comments and such that some people post but that's OK cuz none of that is going to change ANYTHING!
TIESTO was here! We went, saw, listened, and danced! We go to events for a good time and we had a good time. We were able to share some good times with other people that were also there to enjoy the given night. I could care less if Tiesto is #1 or if he's #100. Tiesto was able to bring in the masses and I know the majority of peeps were happy with the event. Hellz even my B/F was quite happy and he's one that always seems to bitch about something.
Those that complain, will always complain no matter what. Go out for the fun of it and stop trying to find fault with whatever the DJ did or didn't do. You all seem to forget that no one is perfect and neither are the things around you. Be happy and glad that you have the opportunity to see, do and experience things that others can't. It's really not that hard. Really. ;) |

First off must say THANK YOU for the pictures and videos!! Secondly THANK YOU for the reviews, reading them has brought me back to the night. And for my review....
I started the night walking into the VIP section which IMO was really nice, open bars, couches, bathrooms, etc. The lights went down and the place erupted, I began my journey through the see of people. I landed about 3 people back from front and center. I watched the video opening and the music began, explosions!!! WOW.WOW.WOW
I stayed in the front for about 3 tracks then decided I needed some space to dance, so I went back to the back and watched in wonder and ah. It was amazing to see so many people with smiles from ear to ear dancing and having the time of their lives. I danced the whole night - a few outside breathers. I had an amzing time!! Would recommend it to anyone to go and experience the event. Seeing and feeling the happiness & energy was worth every penny!! |

i have no say to who should vote who as #1 DJ. do whatever you wish.
my problem is that when so much is made of these people, they overcharge. isn't this the same tiesto plays for $20-$30 at colorado and san diego? people are already talking about plans for TIC NYE. i am guessing these are likely vampire promoters, but for the same price, you can find much better entertainment.
it may seem like we are analyzing him too much. if i go out for a dancing, i would not care what dj is doing as long as he plays something that does not bother me. of course, i won't pay $70. if somebody has a tag that says #1 and charges twice other djs, he better be doing well for that #1 stands for. if tiesto loses #1 title, let's see how many he can draw even if he puts the same show.
if he was truely #1, there would not be a problem critisizing him. in the meantime, if we nitpick, none of the djs is any good, especially the self-proclaimed ones on this forum are crap. |
I think the only reason he is analyzed and critisized so much is because he is the #1 Dj in the world. Its probably why we have the saying, "Its not easy being number one." Everyone and their mother will find something to nit pick at, or just straight up hate on you because they are not #1.
I'm sure when Tiesto is dethroned by Armin this year, next summer everyone will be on the hate Armin bandwagon. "Armin sucks at this," "Armin can't mix for ," "I went and saw Armin Spin tonight and there is no way he should be the #1 Dj. I think a lot of people on these boards are losing sight of what he scene is about. Its about going out the the club, where EDM is meant to be heard, (not sitting behind your computer and being over-analytical), and enjoying some great tunes with people who love the music just as much as you do, REGARDLESS of the Dj who is spinning them. If you are a true trance/EDM fan and went to TIC and had a bad time, then something is truely wrong with you. I mean Tiesto In Concert at Staples Center, try and wrap your head around that for a second. If someone would have told me five years ago that a major Dj is going to headline a concert in a professional sports arena, I would have laughed at them and then told them to get out my face. We should be so lucky to have something like this in the US.
And for everyone moaning and groaning about the acrobats and drummers and music stoping. Chances are that if you went to this concert, you have seen TIC Dvds 1 and 2, and in both Dvds he stops the mix every 5-7 tracks. I mean you know there is going to be some other productions besides just Tiesto spinning, so why get bent out of shape over it. Doesn't anyone ever go out soley to have a good time anymore? When did everyone and there mothers brothers uncles cousin become a damn critic? |

IMO, TIC was way bigger than the Heavy Delta Tour. I enjoyed both but had a much more better time at TIC.
I've been to lots of clubs/events besides Tiesto but somehow being at the Sports Arena that night was something I didn't expect. WOW!

AMEN to that! There is nothing as sweet as feeling the happiness & energy circulating throughout an event such as this night.  |

After finally recovering for 2.5 days, all I gotta say is WOW!!
Going to this show made me feel, like I was 10 years younger, that'd be 24, like the days I used to hit up all the German raves in the early 90's.
I danced for 4 straight hours, with the exception of taking 119 pics and 15 video shots. I actually enjoyed the whole show, even with the acrobats and all. I thought all the extra acts just seemed to add a little more spice to the show...after all who wants to go see a DJ throw down toons for 4 hours straight? (oh yeah, some of you posting before me....)
Well, here are about .76 pics...I'll post the rest when I find somewhere else to host them and the videos. |

I agree. I've been to plenty of raves/clubs/special events, and this one has to be amongst the best I've ever experienced. If you consider all the things that make a night good (music, hot chicks, venue, hot chicks, security, lines, hot chicks, visuals/lighting, pyros, restrooms, concessions, VIBE, etc), this one is pretty hard to beat. Was it the fastest moving line? Definitely not but by no means was it as bad as it looked when I showed up. Hell, there was even vendors walking around selling beverages...how sweet was that? Oh, and the hot chicks! Seriously, this in itself should have it's own thread.
Having said that, I'm still quite amazed how many negative things people have to say about the night. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions (even if you're a clovis and it's wrong). Btw, what is a clovis anyhow? Talking about a true trainspotter. Personally, I didn't hear any wrecks. But let's say he's off by a beat drop or it starts to slip little bit...so what, life goes on. Everyone in there was going ape and that's when you know a DJ has done a great job. And for many, this was their first EDM experience. Would you rather they go to TIC for the first time and had fun or some dump where the experience is (ie. the afterhours). I brought a few people who have never heard of Tiesto before and guess what, they're asking me when is the next event. I'm sure I'm not the only one. So all you TA's, flame me. That's just my opinion....even if it is right. |
