Official Press Release Los Angeles, CA:
World-renowned DJ, TiËsto, and Angel LIVE, the touring division of Godskitchen, are expanding the TiËsto In Concert extravaganza to the US market. Building on the landmark events TiËsto headlined in 2005, including the Opening Ceremony of the Olympics in Athens, Tiësto`s Space Mountain: Mission 2 Concert at Disneyland Resort Paris and the TiËsto In Concert shows in Holland, which drew 55,000 fans over two days, TiËsto has set forth to bring the US the most extraordinary live experience.
Aiming for a tour that reaches far beyond the established DJ show, TiËsto and Angel LIVE have created a sensory driving four-hour production. TiËsto will be immersed in a massive half-million dollar set, designed by Bruce Rodgers of Tribe Design and lit by Stanley Crocker of the Department of Light and Shadow. The production features the signature TiËsto LED surrounded DJ booth, as well as a three story LED wall. In addition, visually stunning elements, such as a massive pyrotechnics and special effects show and more than a hundred lighting fixtures and lasers, accentuate the entire production.
Enhancing the intense visuals and adding an electric and magical atmosphere to the mix, the show will include more than thirty performances including aerial acts, Butoh dancers, Samba and Taiko drummers, flying Geishas singers and Carnival showgirls. The performers will surround TiËsto in two different acts, as part of the Around the World theme of this year's tour. Distinctive visual programming will take the audience on a dazzling trek that begins in America and traverses the globe, accented with live performance segments from South America, Asia and other countries.
TiËsto and his management team from Holland and Brooks Pettus, executive producer through Angel LIVE, created the TiËsto In Concert US Tour after working together on more than thirty shows over the last three years. “At the end of the day, this concept is as much magic and theatre as it is a performance by the most recognized DJ in the world. TiËsto is about to break through to the mainstream and we know we have something amazing here…I stood in the arena in Holland with 27,000 other fans and saw how he moved the audience. I am sure that the TiËsto In Concert Tour will reach well beyond the dance community to everyone who wants to be a part of a landmark event, and a show that is incredibly original and history in the making in the US,” says Pettus.
The TiËsto In Concert local promotion partners, who are providing incredible market insight, include: Insomniac Events, GLOW Washington, Club Space, Rehage Entertainment, Evolution, After Hour Power, Club Crasher, Element Radio, Miami Marketing Group and David Capponi.
Other key players in the TiËsto In Concert US Tour 2005 are: Set design by Bruce Rodgers from Tribe Design (Madonna Drowned World Tour, Fleetwood Mac, Sting, Dave Matthews Band); lighting design by Stanley Crocker from Department of Light and Shadow; marketing design by COG1 Design (PlayStation, Nokia, HBO, Caesar’s, Playboy, Miramax); script, performance design and execution by Party Productions NYC and visuals by Stoptime341 Productions.
The first of four events will be held at the LA Sports Arena, in Los Angeles, on August 20 and tickets go on sale June 14. Ticket prices for the August 20 show are $37.50 for upper level seated; $47.50 for lower level seated; $67.50 for floor general admission, which includes a free TiËsto In Concert tour t-shirt and $200 for the VIP package. The VIP package includes side stage standing general admission, access to a backstage lounge, a hosted bar and a TiËsto In Concert t-shirt. Tickets can be purchased at TicketMaster or the TiËsto In Concert website, www.TiËstoinconcert.com. The world’s greatest DJ will also perform at the world’s greatest festival, the Voodoo Music Experience, which will be held in New Orleans in October. Leading up to Voodoo, expect to see TiËsto in top markets including Washington DC and Miami. To ring in 2006, TiËsto will headline a special New Year’s Eve event at a currently undisclosed location.
TiËsto, the first and only DJ to be voted the #1 DJ in the world by DJ Magazine (DJ Magazine’s Top 100), three years in a row (2002, 2003, 2004), is clearly an international superstar. He has won 3 TMF-Awards (Holland & Belgium), 4 Dutch TMF-Awards and 1 MTV Europe Award. TiËsto is currently on the road in support of his latest release In Search of Sunrise 4.
“The TiËsto In Concert events in The Netherlands were among the greatest nights of my life and real milestones in my career,” concludes TiËsto. “I’m really excited about the US shows…I’m sure that they’ll rock!”

| Wtf are they having it in DC for? They are nuts....if they expect to fill seats, they need to bring it to a North American city that listens to trance (ie: Vegas, Montreal, New York, Miami..) Since when is DC, or any of the surrounding cities, a big place for trance lovers??? :rolleyes: |

I respectfully disagree. DC is the home of GLOW and BUZZ. Glow has been bringing the best trance djs on a consistent basis for over 7 years. from february until july glow has had tiesto, armin, ferry, deep dish, sasha, digweed, timo maas, danny howells, acosta and many more. tiesto, armins first gigs ever in north american were at glow. two years in a row in dj mag top 100 issue, ferry called Glow his "best gig". last week sasha said that glow was the best club gig in two years! Buzz/Cubik has been around for over 10 years and was one of the first club nights ever to bring european djs to america.
dont worry about DC...we know how to come correct ;) |

Oh hun, I think you took me the wrong way....I completely agree with you that DC has some fine establishments with some great DJ's....you are right there...I am just saying that it doesn't seem to me that DC is known for having a HUGE EDM scene.....that is: enough to fill a stadium full for TIC (or whereever it is held). There are trance fans in every city, adn enough to fill the clubs, but I only wonder if he can fill a place full of 20,000+ people.....whereas I think if it was held in, say Montreal (or som eother big trance city) it would leave no doubt in anybody's mind he would sell out quickly. ;)
Hmm imagine US with Tiesto for pres....If he actaully had the capabilities to do a good job (or the requirments to enter the office), I could imagine this country being a very peaceful and happy place!:D |
