© stashaWe have finally live to see the follow up of last years successful Tiesto in Concert 1, where he played a dazzling nine-hour DJ set for 25 000 fans. Expectations were high, feelings after the party mixed, but nevertheless it was something special.

I know I am a little bit late with this report, but really, really could not make it before. The after excitement didn`t want to let me go ;). So - Tiesto in Concert is the subject matter. Let's think if I remember anything at all? Ok that was a joke, because I was a good party girl on concert (more or less). After all the traveling I have arrived in Arnehm just the right time to experience the effect of cold rain on my hair and make up. So the beginning wasn't really promising but I calmed down when entering the area. ID & T really knows how to treat their guests and especially press, but they could provide us with aesthetically nicer bracelets ;). So after small search of press room, wardrobe and similar facilities, I have finally settled out on VIP area. Must say the view was amazing and I could feel the excitement running through my body when looking at party people gathering on stadium. I just loved those rays of blue light. I still get goose bumps when looking at that picture.

Gonna admit that the beginning hasn't impressed me. The three-dimensional movie, that started at 23.00, was a little bit boring, and I was also beginning to worry about the musical style of concert - I wanted real trance, not some undercover proggy. Besides that I couldn't prepare myself to put on those stupid looking 3d glasses - anything to look perfect ;). When looking at crowd I saw most of it shared my opinion, because they were all standing still or sitting. The whole stadium looked like a temple, especially if you looked above where the light sign “TIESTO” hung from the ceiling. There was also a project of exploring other parts of stadium, trying to meet some people at www.tiesto.com selling point, but no success.

After all that waiting, finally that moment when all the fireworks exploded and Mr. Tiesto showed up in his spacey DJ booth. The mind that invented it - that DJ booth - made a great job. He really looked impressive, surrounded with all those magnificent lasers and of course, his energy and enthusiasm is soooo catchy. In my opinion that's one of the biggest reasons he is number one DJ again.

The reason I like Dutch parties so much are those breathe taking shows they make. I'm addicted to lasers and even though people are complaining about Tiesto's performance this year - to tell you the truth I haven't really noticed those imperfections. I was so amazed by the show ID&T made :). The crowd went absolutely nuts when hearing tracks like "Love comes again" and "Suburban Train". And I have really, really "good"memories of that track - live choir made a miracle out of it. In addition to some special company I had at that moment and a view :).Yep - it was unbelievable!!! Also one of the highlights of the concert was Lethal Industry (2004 rmx) supported by a live violin. Its amazing how different, better a track can be, if something new is added.

Sometime in the middle of the party I went down to see Tiesto from the place where real fans are. Just in right time to see Tijs aka The Great Magician performing his act cuffed in that huge box being lifted in air. I still don't get it - took some pictures, made a movie and still no answer. How did they do it? Anyone has an answer to that? Or was it magik ;)?

After that time passed quickly and party ended with Tiesto receiving his third DJ Mag award. To summarize - an excellent show, some very nice tracks and lots and lots of fun. But maybe it wouldn`t be a bad idea for next year to add a tiny stage where some other Black Hole DJs would spin.

If you weren't there, there are some excellent pictures on ID&T website, and Tiesto's home page (party reports part of forum).
