Deadmau5 gets punched

The Canadian artist was on the receiving end of a fist in Brisbane.

Concluding his Australian tour with a gig at Creamfields Brisbane over the weekend, deadmau5, AKA Joel Zimmermann, was attending the afterparty at Birdee nightclub. On the 2nd of May he tweeted, "Thank god for creamfeilds tonight, coz the music at the afterrparty is fucking god awful." Apparently, twittering about it wasn't enough for Zimmermann, who then complained to the DJ who was spinning at the time. Later, the DJ responded by punching Zimmermann in the head.

This resulted in two more tweets:

"birdee nightclub in Brisbane… opening DJ came at me later in the night and decided to punch me in the back of the head. #mistake"

"well the opening “dj” at the club decided to have a go at me. So fuck him and fuck that club. I left."

A couple of things:

1. That Aussie DJ doesn't hit hard enough
2. If Deadmau5 was complaining about the music, I take it as a sign it was actually good

About fucking time.

He's right up there with the current election results in my books: Lots of support from all the wrong places.

[dj stifffy]

ha i think his production skills are rather impressive, but his attitude that hes better then everyone else in the dance community annoys me

Oh hey punching someone for words. That's totally legit.

unless it's boxing or similar, when IS there a legit reason? Dude was being dick, and moaning to the world instead of direct to DJ.
