Why is Tiesto so popular? See for yourself.

This was one crazy night. I went to Tiesto's - Elements of Life Concert in Melbourne, Australia. Even though I didn't have any money to buy the tickets for it. But this is how things worked out as they always do.


OK, while drinking my beer at "All Nations" Bar on the corner of Spencers and Flinders Street, I saw this music magazine which had Tiesto's concert information. I started liking Tiesto when I used to go to Hard trance clubs in Melbourne. When I used to come back from the clubs in the morning, I had to start work in the bar without getting any sleep. So, after coming from the club I would take a shower and go to the bar and start cleaning and stocking drinks. That's when I used to listen to Tiesto, on the big Bar speakers, just by myself. I found his music very soothing at times. His sets and mixes are always giving a meaning to you and take you on a journey.

So, getting back to the topic, I had no money to go to his concert in Melbourne and the Concert was tomorrow. All the tickets were already sold but my friend found this one guy who was ready to sell his ticket. How could it have mattered to me, I didn't have any money for the ticket, so I just went to bed that night thnking that maybe some miracle would happen tomorrow and I would get to see Tiesto. Next day, I woke up and made few plans to get some money from somewhere. So, I went to Cash Converters and sold my stereo for 50 bucks. It was still not enough, the tickets were 110 bucks. So, I sold my phone too but for only 40 bucks. Now, I had 90 bucks to my name but still I was 20 bucks short. I went back to my hostel in sadness. But as soon as I reached my hostel I found this poster on the notice board that someone was selling a ticket for Tiesto's Concert for only 90 bucks. I felt so happy seeing that thing on the wall. I contacted that guy immediately and he said he would give me the tickets outside the concert.

Now, here is the worst part. I was waiting for the guy outside the concert and I saw him too, but he said, that he would sell the ticket for 100 bucks now. I had only 90 bucks to my name. I had an argument with the guy but it was of no use so I had to walk back home. On the way back home, I was just looking at all the people going to the concert; so happy! I kept walking and something happened. It is hard to believe that I found a 10 dollar note lying by the bus stop in the city. I took those 10 bucks, even though I looked around for the person who might have had lost it but there was no one. Then I rushed back to the concert, met up with that guy and got the ticket finally for 100 bucks.


I had the night of my life in the Concert. And that was the night I promised myself that I would become a successful DJ like Tiesto one day. From then till this date, I practice mixing as much as I can and I hope that I will get a chance to play my first big gig somewhere soon.
