| Kind of piggybacking off of the SHM at MSG, It appears this one is also playing arenas. This is a very weird choice for a booking, as there is virtually NO EDM culture in CT. We had Tiesto outside in Hartford in 07 and 08, but those drew 2000 people max. Even though I am not a fan, he should have been playing MSG over SHM, he might have been able to make a legit run at selling it out. Prices are crazy for this show, 81 for floor and either 51 or 61 for lower level. |

There was no more than 40 people at Darude in Hartford a few months back. The sad thing is, it was actually a pretty fun night and Darude played a pretty cool set.
EDM is dead in CT, unless you call our -tastic Dubstep/Electro scenester mob EDM, which is an absolute disgrace to the name of Dance Music. |

Yeah but, a lot of people like Deadmau5, and he has a pretty big following now a days - A lot of people that don't really like any other kind of EDM are Deadmau5 fans, so there might be more people there then you think.
*Edit* Yeah I remember those Tiesto shows, I was actually at both of them haha - I remember a decent amount of people being there, but now Tiesto is a lot more popular then back then too - Pretty curious how many people he would draw in CT now with the scene the way it is there. |

| Oh yeah I'm pretty sure your right - I don't know if they were there both years or just 1 of the 2 - Also for some reason I'm thinking that it might have just been either Josh or Dave solo, not them both, but I can't remember :toothless |

| I think it was just Dresden at the second tiesto show, the one with no power that most likley lead to him not coming back. I liked constitution plaza as a venue, is that Guy that promoted the tiesto shows still around? Pretty sure gabriel and Dresden, Benny benassi and pre super huge above and beyond all played in Hartford around 5-6 years ago as well. |
