Ya something like that.

Originally posted by sleepy&boo This story absolutely stinks like BS. Funny how everyone is so quick to paint deadmau5 a certain way.

It's because he's a douchebag and there is likely a strong degree of truth to what this guy is saying based on cheese dick's track record.

Sadly, it's a matter of most people being able to say "I could see him doing something like that" when a story like this comes up instead of "no way! That doesn't sound like the guy I know".

His track record? Or the track record of BS threads on the Internet?

Well, here is someone saying "No way! that doesn't sound like the guy I know."

We've played with the mau5 twice and the dude is nothing but supportive. I have no reason to believe why he wouldn't be that way for everyone he plays with.

Talking about the mouse. Then you must have caught him on a good day.

Doubt it...he was like dying of a fever in the middle of a heatwave!

So I guess my experience must be the "exception" then...suuuurre!

Here us how it SHOULD have gone down...

- The kid gets to use whatever equipment as long as it doesn't cause too much trouble transitioning to the headliner. (e.g., he can't bring it 5 mixers, 3 laptops, 3 of his own CDJ's, etc).

- The kid SHOULD play an opening set. He won to be an opener. So play a fucking opening set. IF he comes out with bangers at 10pm for a 10pm-4am party, well...he probably will never get booked again. So...again, his choice to bang it out, but don't expect to get booked in the future.

- Re: Deadmau5, there is likely some half-truths to the whole story. Maybe the contest winner is that good? Maybe Joel got a little nervous. Maybe his agents got nervous. Who knows. There are definite half truths in every gossip story. And, its happened enough times under similar themes of diva-like behavior that there must be some truth to it.

- Lastly, just because Joel is some whining diva who likes to be the center of all drama doesn't mean his music sucks. Half this thread is ripping on his music. I for one think his music smells more like shit than the load I dropped last night, but...his sound does appeal to a large commercial crowd. So more power to him. He aint no Digweed. He won't be around much longer so let him cash in however he wants.

Well, I don't really see anyone else coming to his defence. I'm just saying....

Who cares? It's obvious none of the people here have any prior personal experience of actually dealing or interacting with him

Cmon S&B...you know deep down that deadmau5 is teh devil

guys, i am the original poster from the ableton forums.

i wanted to update you that the situation has been resolved... i spoke with deadmau5's agent and there was some communication breakdown somewhere as he had no problem with another live set-up as long as it was built a good distance from deadmau5's rig.

deadmau5 has also sent me a PM on the abelton forums and was really sorry that i was told the wrong information. he seems a really nice guy and was more concerned with the way i was misinformed than the pelting he's received from some people who've blasted him on the thread

i'm really sorry i posted the thread in the first place and never imagined it would spiral or be spread like it has and negatively impact the artist/promoted. i was simply miffed at what i was told at the time re: equipment and bpm, and posted about it to see if anyone else had encountered this situation.

i meant no harm by it and i sincerely appologise to deadmau5 and his agent.

If I was Deadmau5 I'd punch you in the fucking head.

see... this whole god damn thread over what?? a miscommunication. Im never reading a thread based on 'hating' again. (or at least, I wont admit to it)

Originally posted by Frequency Frank Unless this was an Ableton contest that he won, where all entrants had to show their Ableton prowess in order to win, I really don't know why everyone is so outraged. For someone who NOBODY knows, to suddenly be opening for Deadmau5, you can't expect to be calling the shots.

I agree... I don't think the kid has ever heard of "paying his dues"... My first gig ever I brought like 30 vinyls and was told I couldn't use them so I went to my friend's car and burned CDs... Also, my set time was cut more than half at least 50 times throughout the past years of playing out haha... Can't go on a message board and cry about it everytime that happens, every DJ worth his weight in Beatport dollars has had to pay his dues...

all you guys who jumped on the deadmau bashing bandwagon...

...you guys are douchebags!


i saw deadmau at the fillmore NYC and he was great. cant wait for cielo. keep it up deadmau

Favorite DJ or Producer: deadmau5

make sure you dont have orgasm when he takes out his mau5 helmet

Next time another one of these BS threads pop up, people should just immediately link to this one to kill that noise immediately

Bwahahaha! For one, spell his name right.

Second, get of his nuts. Telling someone that they are on a bandwagon when you would clearly bear his children is just f'ing comical.

Now who's the douchebag? Hope you have a mirror handy when you ask the question.

amen.
my first gigs where i'm opening up for someone, if they have a different setup or have a special request, i have to go do it. Too many times I've been cut short also or some other DJ'in mishap.
