DJ Tiesto has been hospitalised with concussion after banging his head on an LED screen whilst performing onstage. 

The Dutch techno giant was spinning at the Electric Bounce House festival (blimey) in San Jose, California when he got a bit overexcited and banged his bonce on a giant LED screen whilst making his way to a platform, causing him to fall.

Like a trooper, Tiesto attemped to continue to blare out an unrelenting stream of EDM to the adoring crowd but his management forced him to cut his set short and seek medical help.

The producer has now cancelled the remainder of his scheduled dates after recieving stitches and being diagnosed with concussion.

Tiesto reassured fans he was still alive via his Twitter page the following day (March 22), writing: "I had an accident and got a concussion at last night's show. Dr's told me to rest so no show tonight. Thanks for your concern and support!"

"I hope everyone has a great time tonight at Palladium in La..I am so sad I have to cancel...and thanks brother @zedd for stepping in!" he added.
