Tiesto In ConcertTiesto and Angel LIVE Launch Visionary US TourLos Angeles, CA: World-renowned DJ, Tiesto, and Angel LIVE, the touring division of Godskitchen, are expanding the Tiesto In Concert extravaganza to the US market. Building on the landmark events Tiesto headlined in 2004-2005, including the Opening Ceremony of the Olympics in Athens, Tiësto`s Space Mountain: Mission 2 Concert at Disneyland Resort Paris and the Tiesto In Concert shows in Holland, which drew 55,000 fans over two days, Tiesto has set forth to bring the US the most extraordinary live experience.Aiming for a tour that reaches far beyond the established DJ show, Tiesto and Angel LIVE have created a sensory driving four-hour production. Tiesto 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 Tiesto 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 Tiesto 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.Tiesto and his management team from Holland and Brooks Pettus, executive producer through Angel LIVE, created the Tiesto 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. Tiesto 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 Tiesto 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 Tiesto 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 Tiesto 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.
