July 19-Sept. 15: Tiësto on North American Tour
May 1, 2007 7:42 PM
Taking to the main stage at Coachella ‘07 with a crowd of over 30,000 in the audience to close out Saturday’s schedule following the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Tiësto played an epic set that encompassed only his productions. Thinking of the ‘Elements of Life’ show as more of a concert, the Holland-born DJ knew it had to be something incredible: Large screens and LED curtains provided the visual aspect with images of fire, water, air and earth, each essential element intertwined with the human form. At the end of the performance, the entire audience that reached far back onto the polo grounds paid homage to Tiësto with hands in the air, chanting his name.
Since its release on Ultra Records on April 10, Tiësto’s third artist album, Elements of Life has been on the charts. Opening at #1 on Billboard’s Electronic Album chart on week of release, it remains firmly in the same spot, and hit #71 for its debut on the Top 200, and is currently at #9 in the Top Independent Album category. In addition, Elements of Life also posted another huge success for dance music in Billboard, ranking at #8 for the most digital albums sold in the US. Charting at #1 on iTunes U.S. for the Dance Album category, and #2 on iTunes Canada for largest selling album overall, this release has sold well over 15,000 in the first two weeks.
Coachella ‘07 was the first stop on the North American leg of this worldwide tour for the album. Tiësto is now scheduled to do the complete Elements of Life concert for 19 dates in North America, with more dates to be added.
