i thought he was something like 25 or something....
quote:
Tijs Verwest (born January 17, 1969 in Breda, Netherlands) is one of the world's leading trance DJs. Although he has used many aliases in the past, he is best known for his work as DJ Tiësto. However, his latest productions have him dropping the "DJ" label and he is now known simply as "Tiësto." In Europe, Tiësto is best known for his famous remix of the Delerium single Silence (featuring Sarah McLachlan) and for his interpretation of Barber's Adagio for Strings. Tijs will be permanently attached to his Tiësto alias, an Italian twist of his childhood nickname, and this acclaimed remix that brought him into the strata of world-renowned DJs.
Together with Oakenfold they should start thinking of retiring someday.

I wonder if there is a standard/acceptable age at which DJs retire? Kinda like in baseball or something. I'd say as long as the ears hold up, they'll keep on making the jack.

No, there is not. There are many djs who are much older than these two.
