Deadmau5 made one big mistake when playing at Provocateur in New Yorks meat packing district which almost caused a club fire!

During the Mau5 set, Joel Zimmerman started a little impromptu celebration of his latest track ‘The Veldt’ (featuring the vocals of Chris James) by lighting an air horn that had a flame that went.. well a little larger than expected. Deadmau5 expressed his relief at the situation by taking to Twitter to state:

“Omg I actually lived through that… Nearly blew up myself and a buncha people in the booth. Pyros a bitch”

Deadmau5 more recently has expressed his relief at being back in Toronto after the fire ordeal!
