I've loved going to Tiesto shows in the past..................


..........well, more accurately, I've loved being just outside a venue with extra tickets to sell for profit, surrounded by about 10,000 people who have no ticket. :p


Thanks Tiesto!

Personally; I love the man. :happy2:

We all have diffent taste in Music and DJ's but that is ok.
But to call someone simple minded b/c they like Tiesto or Oakenfold is really not called for. Maybe us "simple minded" fokes hear things differently.

I love Tiesto's presents behind the decks, his music and what he has done for the Scean.
But there is one problem that I have with him.. After his gigs he just goes away, not takeing time for his fans. Sure he will sign his head phones and toss them out to a random lucky person. But it seems to me he has gotten a little to big for his own good. you have to know someone that knows someone to even shake his hand. He seems to be Forgeting the fans that put him in the #1 spot to begain with. Other DJ's like Armin, Ferry, Markus, JZ... will take time for their fans no matter how bad they are mobbed at the end of their sets. They will sign shoes, hats, records, flyers... and actully get to know our names. To me that is worth more then anything...

This year I am not going to vote Tiesto as my #1 Dj. I think it is someone elses turn to take the prize of being # 1 in the world.......

MOST people have very simple music tastes. Catchy melodies appeal to them, some nice vocals. Can this not be said about music in general?

Most people do not give one about james zabila except people who have a lot of knowledge of edm music. His sounds are very difficult to get into for ----most---- people.

This is why guys like oakenfold and tiesto are so huge.

Tiesto is the best at this. He has completely broken the mainstream barrier. You can trash him all you want, but when over 10 000 people went to his concert yesterday he is doing something right.

And if you think markus shulz is actual trance music you should really think again.


Ummm, your reasoning is total farse.

Here in the US, HUGE portions of Tiesto's crowds don't listen to the music nor even really know what he is going to play. These "fake" people simply go to see him so ...well, they can say they have seen him. I can't stand it when I go to his gigs and I hear at least 20 times per night, "Is this Tiesto playing?" or "Tiesto! Tiesto! Tiesto!" when it's the damn opener.

Tiesto and Oakenfold are so huge because the real fans made them huge. And from there everyone else took notice and goes to see them because the real crowd made them big. So this crowd who doesn't understand instantly thinks that what they are playing must be the best ever when it's not.

To say that the mass crowds today ride on Tiesto's or Oakey's actual music is total farse.....it's more about their names today.

And that's gotten to their head's. I remember when Tiesto was like the friendliest dude to his fands. You could go up to him before/after his gigs, shake his hand, have a little chat. Now, for the most part, he just comes in, plays his sets and usually talks to people who are around him, not concentrate, and leave afterwards.

Don't get me wrong, Tiesto is my #1 DJ of all time. He has been since about 97/98 when he was just up and coming and my brother-in-law came back from Europe (he was in the Navy) when some of his sets on CD that he got for me somehow. No one in the US so much as heard of him then. And it pains me to have ridden both the rise and fall of his quality. If I still have a way to go see him, though, I would. I would have probably gone to TiC if I could have gotten to LA cheaply.

The last time I was Tiesto was here in SF last December and I will be the first to admit he played a great set. Beautiful tracklist and excellent missing. I will also be the first that he seemed to be a bit back to his old self that night. He came in, chatted with some people on the stage, got behind the decks, and didn't pay to attention to any of the 10-20 chicks all lined up around the booth. He was totally focused on the music and the crowd and it showed. He and the crowd were totally into it and it made for a great night. That's the Tiesto we expected to see every time a 2-4 years ago and we rarely ever see anymore. And from the sounds of it, I don't think he'll be in SF for some time.
