On Monday, 23rd April 2006 an international music show was held in Jakarta, but this time it wasn’t a rock or jazz concert , a singer either. This time, an international reputable Disc Jockey known as Tiesto performed himself in the booming of house music rhythm.
The show named “In Search of Sunrise – Asia Tour” was presented in Carnaval Beach – Ancol, in purpose to promote his new album with the same title as the show. The DJ’s real name is Tijs Verwest from Netherland. His show in Indonesia was the last of his serial show in Asia including Japan, China, Korea, Hongkong, Thailand, Singapore and Philipine. In Indonesia, he also performed in Bali and Parangtritis Beach – Jogjakarta, but the last one was cancelled, due to official reason of the heavy rain.
The interesting side of this show was the large number of the crowd. With the ticket prize was about Rp. 200.000/person, the show that went on from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m. was approximately attended by 28.000 people. This show also caused traffic jam around Ancol recreation area and increased hotels occupation rate around Ancol distric, because many of them booked hotel a month before the show.
