19-Apr-08: Round 2 of Tiësto in Manila!
--
Venue/Parking:
World Trade Center, by far one of the better venues we have here in Manila. We got there early and were able to park at the gated, guarded and lit parking lot for PhP 30.00 not bad at all! The decor was a bit sparse but the lights and monitors were abundant. Awesome effects, during the intro though I felt the sound system was not up to par but as the night progressed it sounded better. It became really hot I think it's because of the lights though...

Ticket Price/Entrance Procedure:
General Admission P1,300.00 [P1,200.00 pre-selling]
VIP Tables [includes 2 bottles] we got the 30,000.00 for 10 pax. Not cheap but we got a table and seats. Besides it's Tiësto! We went in at around 12:30 to my surprise there wasn't a long line, flashed my VIP bracelet and we were led to our area.

Music/DJ:
At around 1:30AM Tiësto was introduced via a voice recording which was a welcome change from lame ass barking that usually accompanied these events. What can I say... Tiësto brought his A-game and was interacting very well with the crowd. He played tracks off his new Elements of Life album, and the album that preceeded that Just Be, as well as some classic tunes from In My Memory. Tiësto is well known to be one of the most hardworking DJ producers in the Dance music scene. Unlike many DJ's he went beyond the 2 hour mark and when we left at 4 he was still getting the crowd going. A pro through and through...

Drinks: 100.00 for water. Normal.
--
Security:
Lot's of bouncers, Police [outside], and EMTs + ambulances were present as well. I felt safe.
--
Verdict:
Although Tiësto has dropped down to #2 [Armin is now #1] he is still one of the best DJ's around. There is no doubt about that. All in all I had loads of fun. Good music and good friends make for an unforgettable experience! Trust in Trance, Trust in Tiësto.
