Deadmau5 hospitalised following fight with Felix da Housecat

quote:
Deadmau5 is being treated in a hospital following a fight during the Miami Winter Music Conference with Felix da Housecat.

The Canadian DJ, real name Joel Zimmerman, is having one of his ears reconstructed at Mount Sinai Medical Center in South Beach, Miami after the two men came to blows on Sunday night.

The fight started during Deadmau5�s headline set on the main stage at the Ultra Music Festival.

Speaking to Mixmag from the Miami hospital, Deadmau5�s manager told us this morning �He was just mixing out of 'Faxing Berlin' when Joel looked to the side of the stage and saw Felix tucking into his rider. Joel gets quite funny about having a full cheeseboard ready for when he comes off stage so when he saw Felix with his paws in his brie he went ballistic and threw a can of Heineken at him.�

Felix da Housecat, best know for spearheading the electroclash movement, did not react well to being hit by a full can of the premium strength lager and pounced on Deadmau5 - much to the delight of the baying American crowd.

Around 12,000 festival goers watched on the main stage�s big screens as Deadmau5 was pinned to the floor by the obviously more dominant Housecat.

One onlooker, who posted a clip of the event on Youtube, described Felix�s fighting technique as �just toying with him�.

Despite the cuts to his ear and being treated for shock, it�s thought Deadmau5 will still be OK to headline Cream Ibiza on September 2 during the Mixmag and DSI Ibiza Holiday.

In a statement released yesterday Felix claimed �He got what was coming to him. It serves him right for acting such a damn fool�
