This DVD gets 2 stars for two reasons: first, I found the editing to be horrible. Second, it does not include the special features disc.

I share the opinion of most reviewers in that this is an amazing concert. Tiësto did a fantastic job selecting tracks. If this concert were on CD, I would give it 5 stars.

However, I found it difficult to enjoy watching the concert because the scenes last no more than 1.5 seconds each -- it is truly distracting. For this failure, I would give the video presentation 1 star.

But there is hope...

While the editing problems remain, the European version of this DVD is well worth the investment.

The European release of the DVD comes in a much nicer case, with a nifty little booklet, and most importantly, the second disc! One of my biggest gripes about the first Tiësto in Concert was the lack of an mp3 format, the European version includes this. The mp3 of the concert is, in my opinion, worth the cost of the product alone, and I was elated to find that the Euro-formatted DVD runs perfectly on my computer - a relatively new Dell. (I don't know if it will run on any other computer.)

I recommend the European version from amazon.co.uk; it is worth the few extra dollars.

This DVD will blow your mind. I've liked Tiesto for many years now and I thought I'd heard and seen it all . . . until I say this. I saw his first "Tiesto in Concert" and was pretty impressed with the stage light show and music. This DVD made me forget that one. The stage was amazing and the only that could have made it better would have been to see him live. I highly recommend anything Tiesto releases and this DVD is at the top of the list.

Its really good. Much better than the first one since you can now see the fans more often. The first concert was mostly focused on Tiesto mixing his music, which gets boring after a while. Seeing the crowds enjoying their time so much, combined with the great music of Tiesto, definetely makes the second DVD concert a great one.
I loved how Tiesto ended the concert with his famous remix of "Silence", a classic.

Grabbed this after listening to ISOS4. Loved that album!

Not sure if this is the actual live music which was played at that time but worth the money you pay for this!

Enjoyed it. Not something I would continuously watch over and over, but was worth the three hours spent! Again, im not a hardcore trance fan, im a hardcore progressive house fan, but Tiesto is the greatest dj in the trance genre. As a producer, he needs work, but he's the greatest "trance" dj no doubt.

If your a tiesto fan grab this!

Amazing effects throughout the concert. Can tell they invested mad money and time and the result stands out for itself.

This dvd really brings you into the environment of Tiesto's shows and gives you a tidbit of what it is like at one of his concerts. If you can go to his concerts all the time, you don't really need this DVD unless you want to relive the experiences of the music through your TV/computer. But if you live out in the middle of nowhere (like me) and have no access to any clubs or concerts all the time, then this DVD is definatly for you!
You also much like this music. Haha, that's a given.
Once you hear the famous symphony remixed, your life will be complete. :)

Part A)
*The music will fu#@$*g blow your mind.
*You will know why people love Tiesto so much (vibrant spirit).
*The production is of a grand scale.
*I wish I was there, so would you.

Part B)
*The editing is Schizophrenic (to say the least).
*Visually distracting and uncomfortable (you might get sick if you had something to eat earlier).
*A three hour long music video.
*Try to get your dvd on an MP3 format, if you can, then enjoy the awesome music and throw the dvd away.

4.5 stars for the music
1.5 stars for scene editing

For all the previous reviewers who complained of camera movement... have you never been to a quality rave/concert? This DVD brings you there. If you are feeling the music your vision blurs, you are unable to focus on one thing, but all the time you know you are there, you know you are happy, and you know TIESTO is there with you, whether or not you can focus on him or anything else.

This DVD is AMAZING!!

Those who complain about the DJ mentioning Tiesto is number one, and then applaud the fact that when the crowd sings along with Love Will Come Again, it is the DJ who tells the crowd to sing along. I don't give 5 stars easily. If you found your way to this DVD, then you are someone who needs to buy it. Simple.

Long live Tiesto. Long live trance. Long live joy in music and thousands coming together at once to share that joy together!

I only got into Tiesto sometime last year when a friend of mine sent me his "Just Be" cd. As soon as I heard "Forever Today", I was hooked.

This dvd completely blew my mind. Great music in a magnificent atmosphere. You really get a feel of the energy in the buildin when you see the crowd goin absolutely nuts!! I couldn't stop movin to the beat throughout the concert. And the lightshow durin is absolutely stunnin. Only wish I could have seen the show live. But this is a great substitue.

My fav track of the entire concert was "Adagio for Strings." I can't describe what it was like, but I couldn't wipe the huge grin off my face. I do recommend watchin the dvd in surround sound to get the full effect. Oh ya, and JACK UP THE BASS!!

Only reason I gave it 4/5 was b/c the camera work kinda gets to your eyes after a while. I just closed my eyes at times and just listened. There's not much negative besides that.

I highly recommend this dvd to every Tiesto fan!!

Excellent, Amazing and awesome !!! A must for trance maniac and Tiesto die hard fan. You just can't express alone by words, you have to watch it to believe it. 75,000 people in a dome with a single Dj playing the tracks. Unbelievable!!!

Don't get me wrong, Tiesto's set is amazing in this. I just saw him live in Miami twice recently and his set on this DVD blows those out of the water(by tiesto standards). Like many others who have posted reviews here, the camera work needs to be redone. If you are watching this and have anything to drink...you may want to reconsider, it'll give you the spins. I wish they'd stick on the DJ booth so we could see the master at work for more than 2 seconds.
Set List: 5 stars
