Quotes: |
I was playing a gig in Greece in September 2003 and this guy walks up to me and says, 'Hey Tiesto I just heard you play; you're amazing. I want you to play at the opening ceremony of the Olympics.' I looked at him, like, 'Sure pal!'

I love performing in the U.K. Everyone is always up for it and brings all their energy to the dance floor.
<br />
<hr>
Most people went to dance shows, but it was basically a table and a DJ playing and not really a spectacular thing. I brought the whole production with the effects - the best sound, the best lighting to blow the fans away.
<br />
<hr>
DJs are the new rock stars.
