he does have some good tunes, i will admit. Also, it is good that electronic music is now getting more attention these days and that he is attracting more people.I just wish people wouldn't just stop at the big name artists and continue searching for other producers/DJs as well.

Yeah it was a Waterfront Park here in Kelowna. Really nice concave on the hill and a beach along with a harbour just behind. All together there was probably 1000+ people.

Deadmau5 is awesome, I've been following him since ever, was on many events with him and have an excellent photo with him as well :D

You are so off. Deadmau5 doesn't play techno. He plays house that people who know nothing about house enjoys. His latest tracks sounds exactly like the first shit he produced. Deadmau5 has some good stuff, but he is boring and heavily overrated.

I met Deadmau5 this past March at Ultra Music Festival in Miami. Cool guy.
|
That looked like fun, hope you had an amazing time! I missed the show he did at The Guvernment here in Toronto. 
|
Damn, that looked really fun. Those pictures are really cool. I almost got a chance to see him at the Ogden in Denver but it didn't work out D:
