Tiesto (born Tijs Verwest on January 17, 1969 in Breda, The Netherlands) is one of the world s most famous trance DJs. Although he has used many aliases in the past, he is best known for his work as DJ Tiesto. On his latest productions, however, he has dropped the DJ label and he is now known simply as Tiesto , an alias which is an Italian twist on his childhood nickname. He has also been voted best DJ in the World 3 consecutive times by DJ magazine and is currently ranked #1 according to the world DJ rankings, compiled by The DJ List, the worlds largest DJ directory. As of May 2006 Tiesto is the official worldwide ambassador for the Dance4Life foundation, fighting the spread of HIV,AIDS, for which he recorded the track Dance4life .

During these years, he produced hardcore,gabber tracks under aliases such as Da Joker and DJ Limited.

In addition to holding these two concerts for 35,000 of his fans, he held another concert for a crowd of 20,000 in Hasselt, Belgium the
