Saw DJ Eddie Halliwell at Syndicate in Blackpool last night.

OMFG! Awesome, the guy really knows how to create an atmosphere. I've seen hundreds of sets from the likes of Tiesto, Paul van Dyk, etc. etc. and this guy tops the lot.

If any of you like dance music at all and get the chance to see him DO IT! you won't be disappointed!

Check the video out, worth watching to the end, the guy crowd surfs!


Some pics:




my mate took this video, i was losing it on the dancefloor

Nice, but better then Tiesto. I doubt it. Ever listened to his Tiesto In Concerct live sets? I was there 2 times and had the best ambience ever (for a Dutch Trance event).

Definitely better than Tiesto. I've seen Tiesto a few times, at cream in Ibiza, and in the UK. His sets are great but the atmosphere last night was unbelievable, when was the last time Tiesto climbed up onto the decks and dived into the crowd?

Awesome stuff

Tiestos own tracks are superb, sure you recognize 'Traffic' That Eddie is playing in the video

Jumping up and down is dancing?

>

lol

It's no line dancing that's for sure

You clearly dont know anything about Techno/Dance/Trance

@manphibian: Its to small a crowd for me to really "taste" a ambience. Watching/Listening 30.000 people going crazy because a DJ puts Flight 643, Adagio for Strings or Lethal Industry on give's me goosebumps everytime.

Just look at this:

Or trying something new like this

Nuff said. Tiesto is the best out there along with his fellow Dutch Dj's like Ferry Corsten, Erick E, Armin van Buuren, Marco V, Sander Kleinenberg.

But I must say that the Quality of Tiesto is going downwards . After Nyana and In Search of Sunrise 4 it went downhill.

That club is actually one of the biggest clubs in the uk, that room had around 6,000 people in it, here's another pic:



And i agree that Tiesto's tracks are amazing, but anyone can play his tracks, not just him. He has hardly any crowd interaction in his sets, He doesn't seem to put that much effort in, Eddie Halliwell really gets into it. You really should go see him, you'd love his sets.
Here's another video, he has a lot more technical ability than Tiesto, you can't deny that?

and the others you mentioned, i agree. I am going to Ibiza in 3 weeks and i will see Ferry Corsten, Armin van Buuren, Marco V, Sander Kleinenberg, Sander van doorn and many more

EDIT: and from your first clip, Tiesto is a TERRIBLE dancer

I agree he was the greatest dj in the world a few years ago, but he hasn't really moved on and has been overtaken recently.

Puts on a good show though

Yup you've got a point. Nice link you put up.

Haven't been to many events last year or so. Settling down I guess. More like listening to chill albums like ISOS 4 or Nyana. Armin van Buuren is still nice to listen to on the radio. 300+ sets of Dance Department

Yeah, saw Armin a few months ago here in UK, he was truly amazing.

Can't wait for Ibiza, on one night they have playing:
Ferry Corsten
Eddie Halliwell
Above and Beyond
Adam Sheridan

Another night has:
Armin
Markus Schulz

and my last night has:
Judge Jules
Marco V
Sander van Doorn
Dogzilla

Damnz, 3 days of complete insanity, have fun dude

>

i'm there for 8 days, but i will need rest days in between

you guys are lucky to have tracks soo readily available or be able to see them in concerts or clubs, someday i wish to go to ibizza lol ...all though tiesto is coming to chicago in a few weeks
