Partyhopper! I was there too, but didn't see you. Had to leave early b/c my girlfriend couldn't stand the freaking crowd. Great show, but some of the people there were really annoying. Hope you had fun.

Yes we were. And dont take this as an attack at you or any1 else, but i go to a show to see the DJ not the pyrotechnics and videos. The show was 8/10 the DJ was more like a 3/10

If the opening acts for Armin finished a half hour early, he's be out there spinning as soon as they were done. But i guess Tiesto is too good to start early. Easily the WORST night of the year. Never seeing that overpriced idiot again.

LOL, see when I make this statement, ppl bash on me. Good u finally see for what it is. :p But I gotta say, the stage, video screen and pyrotechnics werent bad. It looked like something u would see at an oversees european festival. Sometimes too many lasers can just be in annoying and having a nice light show can be just as good if not better. Of course Tiesto still sux so either way it would be wack anyways. :stongue:

Haha, Im glad someone was able to see through all the smoke and mirrors.
Im sure if there were no pyrotechnics, the reviews would be quite different.
BTW, to further conclude my point about trance being complete ... when a DJs tracklist consists 3/4 of his own tracks, most of which are overplayed, overhyped and not that good to begin with - to say the set was great means you were successfully manipulated by the millions of dollars they put into the show.

But honestly, I do gotta give it up for the ppl who organized the video/lighting for this Tiesto event. IMO, its better than any MADE show I have ever been to. Sure lasers are ok, but if ure constantly being blinded by that every min it gets kind of annoying. LOL. For some reason, simple flashing lights with diff. colors and speeds as well as good timing with audio seems to make for a better display.
Tiesto @ Hammerstein
vs
Armin Van Buuren @ Mccarren Pool

horrible conclusion... it was called Tiesto in concert/ Elements of Life Tour. He was promoting his music what do you expect, it wasn't a club gig.

I didn't take it offensively, that is your opinion and you are entitled to it. I just don't agree with you :). The pyrotechnics and video stuff were good but I am not tricked by bright shiny things ;). I honestly enjoyed his set, I wasn't unhappy when he didn't come out right after Jes because I knew he wasn't gonna come out for a while. Also, I'm no DJ so i can't claim to pay attention to tiny things in his mixing style that may annoy people that do DJ...overall I think he deserved much higher than a 3, the tracklist alone deserves much higher than that. But again that is my opinion which I am also entitled to.
