Deadmau5 is one of the most controversial DJ/Producers in “EDM.” Even if he thinks EDM means “event-driven marketing.” After trash-talking Ultra, he headlined the festival. Then, he played at Mansion and complained about trust fund babies. So Space wrote Deadmau5 up a letter offering him all expenses paid to do a FREE show at their sister-venue ICE PALACE. Yesterday it was announced that the show would take place February 15, the weekend of Valentine's Day. What better way to give Miami and his real fans some love?
And today, “tickets” went on sale at 2 P.M for a dollar ‘(a donation to Miami Children's Hospital). If you were lucky enough to wait by a computer and score a ticket, then you're one of the 4,000 out of 165K+ who viewed the page in just a minute, which is how long it took for tickets to sell out. Looks like the cheese spread, because Deadmau5 was gone in 60 seconds.
Oh, and don't even think about getting fresh and reselling tickets. Guerra Marketing Manager and Queen of Space Jackie Richie and Marketing Manager Travis Rogers are ensuring that no shady shit goes down, and by that we mean no one pays for this show. Tickets will be cross-checked with id's to make sure the person entering is the person who was a loyal fan and clicked buy at exactly 2 p.m. VIP only.
