[rose plover]

Yea I should’ve wrote it down lol

[steep burrow]

[rose plover]

That’s fine can’t promise I’ll get to em rn tho

[steep burrow]

understandable, it's past midnight here and further past midnight for you

[outer flower]

Was it mostly the same as LA https://1001.tl/1c9wyn11

[rose plover]

3:11am 2b exact

I just had an awesome night out w my friend I’m tryna rip a bong and eat a cheeseburger lol

[steep burrow]

what a way to end the night

[outer flower]

Lmfao

[rose plover]

What a nice place to crash

[steep burrow]

ooh that's nice

[rose plover]

But I did want to share some of this w u guys bc I knew how excited you’d b

[outer flower]

I appreciate it

Now we wait for the rest of the clips to come in

[rose plover]

Yea that looks p similar

[rose plover]

I have so many but Discord is a fucking cunt w the stupid file size limits

[outer flower]

Yeahhh

Just throw em into like a drive folder or smth

[rose plover]

Yea if u guys r serious about actually archiving them I can do that mayb on Monday or something

[feral grove]

Lights the mfkn princess tho 👸 🤍🖤🤍🖤

[rose plover]

Not only did we get HR
We got HR w an outro transitioning into input_output

[outer flower]

….

I can’t fucking believe what I’m fucking reading

Right fucking now

[rose plover]

AND Luxuria Tinlicker Remix

That too

I didn’t think he’d drop that in a CUBE set I always thought that was reserved for Unpluggeds

[outer flower]

On fucking god Im writing a very strongly worded letter

Tomorrow

And putting it on reddit

@steep burrow you seeing this shit

[rose plover]

As someone who doesn’t sound like as big of a fan as urself
This ticked all the boxes for me. A brass band doing covers of his songs to open. A BSOD set w Steve Duda. CUBE V3. Hayla Kiesza and Lights all coming out to do guest vocals. Lasers

[candid lichen]

alright hifriend you're starting to piss me off haha

stop being spoiled

[rose plover]

This is the sixth time I’ve seen him and by far and away the best

[candid lichen]

you got a 3 hour set with a ton of special guests and never-before played or rarely played songs

the 2 sets were super similar

[steep burrow]

BRUHHHHHHHHHHHH

WHAT THE FUCK????

[rose plover]

I don’t have a recording of that sadly
Might be time to hit up the suits @ mau5trap

[rose plover]

She’s so fuckin hot

I can’t believe she has a kid

[steep burrow]

Angy

[outer flower]

Idk what else NY got compared to LA. Theres no way that he could keep it around 3 hours and have all these track changes.

[rose plover]

If we don’t count BSOD as its own thing
He played from 9:50-1:40ish

IIRC

[outer flower]

3.5hrs?

[rose plover]

I honestly never thought he’d b on stage that long even someone like Eric Prydz doesn’t go over three and a half hours

[rose plover]

Yup

[feral grove]

Looks better than me post Smidgeon crafting.

[rose plover]

And to think I was gonna do that BS in Cancun just to catch all the same shit… lol

[steep burrow]

Aye, she's kept her life relatively drama free

[outer flower]

Fucking dont be spoiled my fucking ass.

I’m going to bed

That’s 4.5 hours with the bsod and wtf included then

Or just under

[rose plover]

Some actual honest to God real time visuals
Not playback

[rose plover]

In general New Yorkers r very spoiled regardless of ur tax bracket
Bc we have the best of everything. Our variety is unparalleled

[rose plover]

That Maths 2me

[feral grove]

Thanks for all the tech insight though. Idk why that shit is sooo hard to come by. I fight for every little thing I learn 😤 I wasn’t there tonight, but I’m about 2/3 of the way there for tomorrow. Crashing a hotel because the fkn rental car has this broken ass “wireless” charger that… doesn’t 😩

[rose plover]

I think if ur a fan ur in for a real treat

And u should be very excited

[feral grove]

I want to do shit like this.. gen in real time. I’m doing it small scale. We getting there xD

[rose plover]

Tonight was honestly the closest vibes I’ve seen to Meowingtons Hax since that show
And I wasn’t even in the rave scene when that happened I was still 12

Oh yeah
Another thing
He played full length Strobe
WITH the ov intro

Video from the Wiltern show on the wall and everything

[outer flower]

I meant it towards Josh’s comment to stop being spoiled

[rose plover]

Really went all out for these two it seems like

[feral grove]

I hope he plays Quetz tomorrow.

[outer flower]

Yeah LA also got Strobe ov intro

https://youtu.be/x6IKD7o3XSQ

[feral grove]

I’m also actually excited to finally check out Mirage itself.

[steep burrow]

Nah it's all timecoded, talked to Ed from 36North at the bowl. No need to live render anything but the live camera overlay and the cube tilt/rotation

[rose plover]

It’s a really great space run by some real sketchy pieces of shit
Tomorrow will most assuredly be more crowded so show up early if u wanna avoid security acting like a bunch of dickholes they r notoriously temperamental

And stash ur weed if ur bringing in any they get anal about that shit
Once ur inside it’s fine the entry process is the annoying part they make it way more of a PITA than it has 2b

[candid lichen]

i stand by what i said

you still are lucky to experience one of the best mau5 shows ever

[rose plover]

Yea this was def a special night for sure

Zero complaints from me

The best part of this show honestly
Was how every time I thought I was done being surprised
He pulled another rabbit out of his helmet

I remember thinking “We’re not gonna get Luxuria…” and then right as input_output starts fading out
There it is

[strange raven]

input_output oh my gooooood

i want that shit released

[rose plover]

Same

[strange raven]

probably gonna be on the new album

[rose plover]

HR Cephei transitioned into input_output no less

[rose plover]

If it ever comes out

[strange raven]

that’s a crazy transition holy shit

man yall got a pretty good set

so far every city has gotten some special unique sets

wonder what’s in store for red rocks

[rose plover]

Red Rocks is special. Ik that and Mirage r two of his fav venues in the States

As cool as the Mirage production is
I’d take two 600 million year old sandstone boulders over that video wall lmao

[strange raven]

yeah he’s said that on record that red rocks is his favorite north america venue

LOL

[rose plover]

The Beatles played there

It’s hard not to love it

[rose plover]

Ok so I may have lied a bit
It was HR
Then Not Exactly Rebuke
Then input_output
Then Luxuria Tinlicker
And then it was TESTPILOT vibes from there on out

Any way u slice it
Incredible performance from everyone all around

[nocturne quiver]

Fuck it makes me so happy to see cube v3 back, I assumed it was completely retired

[blissful flare]

Input_output at RR please Joel 🫶🏼

Either night idgaf 😭

It’s funny all the venues I’ve been to include rocks 😭

[long magnet]

wait so Joel used two different cubes for LA and NY?

[lilac tulip]

It was my first time at Mirage lastnight. I didn’t love the acoustics but wasn’t sure if it’s because where i was standing or because the venue is outside with asphalt floor. Are you saying Mirage house speakers are a better sound?

Plus drones

[nocturne quiver]

yep LA had cube 2 lite and NY has cube v3

[gilded plover]

I see he went off last night

[nocturne quiver]

starting to get some uploads https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcwtdXgZeIw

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-GytCBiQo8

[nocturne quiver]

testpilot with cube v3???? omfg

[outer flower]

Night 2 set times

Yall goin til like 4am fr

[vernal mantle]

my old ass gonna need a nap this afternoon it seems

[nocturne quiver]

it's like chicago DOTD all over again, that was ROUGH

[hasty merlin]

I’m gonna be pulling a 24hr day good lord

Gotta love teaching

[outer flower]

Yeah yall gone need a nap later tonight. Its gonna be a long night

[brave rune]

Nooo he played it in Brooklyn? I wish he played it in hollywood. I've always wanted to see it live 🥲

[brave rune]

Omg this was exactly what I wanted in hollywood wtf. Input_output is sick too. And luxuria. AND testpilot?? Fuckkkk

I'm extremely jealous rn

[outer flower]

https://tenor.com/view/dirty-docks-shawty-triflin-shawty-triflin-she-gif-22455514

[golden copper]

I’m gonna need that full brooklyn night 1 setlist…grateful for what we got in hollywood but I need to see the differences

[lean wind]

jesus fucking christ... he did it...

[hasty merlin]

[ancient ingot]

these retrospective shows are cool, no doubt, but I'd pay an ungodly amount of money for Joel to play a 3hr set where he drops At Play tracks, his old remixes, and RAT tracks.

[gleaming mulch]

8 moar hours, I need my job to speed up the time PLZ

[hasty merlin]

Felt that!! Dismissal bell just rang… soon…

I’ll have these and about 25 more bracelets to trade tonight

[outer flower]

severe lack of videos today lol https://i.imgur.com/ozFYFR8.png

[gleaming mulch]

If I had enough time and money, I would've done both days, 2nd day I probably would've just recorded the set, but I know I'm gunna try and fully enjoy myself lol

[nocturne quiver]

[rose plover]

I prefer Mirage’s house system yes
Not to say L’Acoustics K2 is a bad system, it’s one of the best u can get in live sound
But the house system is finely tuned for that specific genre of music. VERY snappy transients
When I saw him do Unplugged there the last three years he used the house system

Morning horde, I see I’ve become something of a hero lol

[rose plover]

Yeah
He did the same thing last time he brought CUBE V3 to the indoor portion of AG pre-COVID lol

[feral grove]

Will you be out there tonight?

[rose plover]

If someone wants to bless me n the homie w a couple tix

Lolol

[lilac tulip]

Thanks. I appreciate the insight ( I’m thinking about catching Boris Brejcha next month).

[rose plover]

I’ll make a whole Drive folder w all the videos I took last night if someone does lmao

[rose plover]

Might wanna grab VIP if ur not going on a weekday, that floor gets packed odee on weekends

U guys might not believe me when I say this
But AG has a quite frankly disturbing and astonishing lack of regard for its workers’ and guests’ safety
I’ve known several ppl who climbed those scaffoldings w zero harness

Even the big festivals I’ve worked on like EForest and Lost Lands that used contract labor has those

[rose plover]

So yea
VIP
Don’t count on them 2b lookin out 4u if there’s some kinda crowd crush lol

[blissful flare]

AG seems like a well polished venue but behind the scenes nothing but a mess…

[rose plover]

Good description of it yea

[blissful flare]

Sad..

What a badass venue design they have too.

Didn’t they kinda create the whole ezoo debacle

[lilac tulip]

Lastnight someone told me you can usually get up to a certain section of the mezz with GA tix. That true?

Wasn’t the case lastnight

[rose plover]

They DID create it lol
Awful project management combined with an unwillingness to work w the union that’s done EZoo every year since inception

They wanted stuff done in a week and a half that would’ve taken a month or more of planning bc they thought it would be the same as hanging up a few Halloween decorations and a disco ball and calling it a festival
Like they do @ 140 Stewart Ave

[rose plover]

I got upstairs just fine idk what ur talking about lol

I took the staircase next to the house left VIP section

[rose plover]

Oh yea
After all that shit happened
The venue owner fled the country
He’s back now, but that should tell u something

[lilac tulip]

@rose plover My friend must have missed it. Still gets crowded up there though?

[rose plover]

Last night wasn’t too bad. The areas right next to the bar where the couches used 2b were empty. Tonight is gonna be exponentially more crowded tho bc even tho it says sold out they’re still gonna sell door tix and it’s gonna get overcrowded like it always does
If u want a good spot and hassle free entry I’d show up early

I also fully expect the crowd 2behave far more obnoxiously since it’s a weekend

[strange raven]

MAAAAAN that would’ve been awesome to hear

[rose plover]

It was even better when he did the Unplugged in 22 and it came thru Mirage’s house system lol

Nice panorama I took

[outer flower]

ugh

[rose plover]

U end up making any financially unsound decisions today

[heavy rivet]

thinking about it 💀

[outer flower]

Aint no way im making it to NY in time

plus finding a ticket since sold out

[rose plover]

lol I could find u one in 30 min or less probably

[rose plover]

If u leave like now u might lol

[outer flower]

Earliest flight i can find is delta that departs in an hour but its $800+

Lands like 30min before he goes on

[strange raven]

Red Rocks it is then

[outer flower]

Jetblue has a $497 that leaves a little after and lands like 20min after hes started

But since flying west to east itll be faster cause jet stream

[nocturne quiver]

Ouch

[outer flower]

$230 round trip to denver tho for red rocks is a fucking steal

[nocturne quiver]

Mind if I ask from where?

[outer flower]

LAX

Might be cheaper if I flew from long beach actually

[nocturne quiver]

Ahhh yeah thats a lot closer than DTW. around $400 right now

[outer flower]

Nvm its actually more expensive from long beach lmaoo

Idk why im doing all this planning when im broke

[nocturne quiver]

Smaller airports are typically more expensive sadly

Did you check frontier, allegiant or spirit?

[rose plover]

Allegiant is always a good look yea

[slender pasture]

Those are so pretty!!

[outer flower]

I havent, i just checked southwest

bet

[rose plover]

LaGuardia is a really fucking nice airport and the closest to the city
If u can find any flights into it

They just redid it like two years ago it’s one of the nicest in the country now

[nocturne quiver]

You can set up price change alerts on there too, emails you every time they change

[teal gyro]

Same

[normal patio]

Wdm by early ? I was there at 4 but that's "too early" apparently

[rose plover]

I wouldn’t show up more than an hour and a half after doors

[normal patio]

Ofc ofc maybe I'll be there at 7pm then

[lilac tulip]

Hope everyone has a good time. My only regret from lastnight was not being closer for a better view of the guest singers (esp Lights ❤️)

[rose plover]

Yea there were certain points I wish I was deeper in the crowd so I could’ve felt the bass more
But I’m a veteran raver at this point lol the rail just doesn’t hold the same appeal it used to

[rose plover]

I’m honestly really surprised there weren’t more ppl from here that went last night

[blissful sun]

Does anyone know of anyone selling a ticket for cheap tonight or even giving one away? Can’t afford much but having massive fomo.

[lilac tulip]

I think @rose plover said there would be tickets at the door

[gleaming mulch]

Cube V3 was the last time I brought this around, he got signed, thus it forever remains enshrined from the experience of that day

But I've also had this for 12 years, so I think it will retire will honor

On the way, see the horde there, tonites drip I suppose, Cube V3 stuff lol

[golden copper]

Looks like the Brooklyn Night 1 recording + setlist is up: https://www.1001tracklists.com/tracklist/14tb9jh1/deadmau5-retro5pective-the-brooklyn-mirage-new-york-united-states-2024-05-02.html

[outer flower]

wtf he played CRi???

holy shit

ok we got bamboozled. it was more like 35min extra but just DJing. but still

[restive token]

Considering it’s May 4th lowkey hoping for a Star Wars reference

[opaque drum]

hf, 3 hour long. but nice to hear input_output again. magnificent track.

[hasty merlin]

I have my bracelets, my energy drink, and my shoe inserts am ready

[hasty merlin]

we out here!

[gleaming mulch]

Ok so I failed, I can't video anything, too much merch, srry guys lol

[strange raven]

have fun NY horde <3 stay safe, hydrate, look out for each other and enjoy the show tonight

[ocean hill]

CUUUUBEEE

I CAN’T BELIEVE CUBE V3 IS BACK AAAAA

[rose plover]

Looks like there’s no door tix left
Rip

[rose plover]

Yea but it was TESTPILOT/Unplugged vibes

[strange raven]

okay but what if he plays this tonight

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYT9vQLxt5c

[rose plover]

There better be a soundboard recording

[gleaming mulch]

Never realize how short u are, until y keep moving up to find space to see the show

[hasty merlin]

Felt that in my soul

[feral grove]

What track was that opener? Very Meridia-ish

[gleaming mulch]

Soooooo

Tommy Lee...absent??

[vernal mantle]

Yea no Tommy here

[restive token]

“Where’s Tommy! “ Should be the next single title

[gleaming mulch]

🫡

[rose plover]

Probably got too wasted after last night’s gig lmao

[rose plover]

If u guys end up getting You and I I’ll b pissed. Someone take a video
Enjoy the show

How crowded is it

[vernal mantle]

Packed but VIP is comfy

[rose plover]

Yea I’m so glad I went Thursday lol

Never doing Mirage on weekends again

[rose plover]

Nice pic tho

[frail fulcrum]

[frail fulcrum]

According to him, he had something planned for night two

Maybe and extended testpilot set

[opaque drum]

ah noice.

[frail fulcrum]

That’s why I’m waiting for some videos of tonight

[rose plover]

If u guys end up getting You and I I’ll b really pissed lol

[strange raven]

HE BROUGHT THIS MAU5HEAD

[heavy rivet]

the 2.1 tait head 🔥

[gleaming mulch]

He mentioned i_o

[outer flower]

Holy shit i forgot that head existed

[rose plover]

How was the show

[frail fulcrum]

What did he say?

[formal raft]

It was honestly incredible, by far my favorite deadmau5 show, and he was in such a great mood! Haha truly beyond my wildest dreams with the songs he played

[astral gyro]

dude actually played finished symphony to end it, holy fuck

[rose plover]

Did he play You and I

[feral grove]

Wait ur local. Where is a good place to walk to charge a phone?

[rose plover]

There aren’t many open at this hour lol
But u can usually find an outlet in the breaker panel underneath some lampposts

U might be able to find a restaurant open somewhere

[feral grove]

I know I’m an idiot.

[restive token]

He just mentioned him and then played an unreleased track they both worked on. Essentially just paid his respects

[gleaming mulch]

Did he do like an impromptu test pilot set?!

[thin sable]

YO

So happy to hear HR

that was sick

[gleaming mulch]

And btw it is 5am by us, he fully ended his show 1 how ago

I am shot

Lmao

[thin sable]

And we were scratching arguru

[gleaming mulch]

HELLSZ YEAAHH

[thin sable]

YUHHH

I am hammered

Will send vids tomorrow

A buddy got kicked out

[gleaming mulch]

Yoo really?

There was 1 guy that got carried out

Was he good???

[thin sable]

Sorry I not sober

[rose plover]

He played Arguru?

[rose plover]

I’d b annoyed if u were at this hour

[thin sable]

Yeah man we were screaming for it

And HR

[rose plover]

Ah I wish we got Arguru last night lol
But it’s nbd he’s played it at least four other times I seen him

Did y’all get input_output

[thin sable]

Oh yeah I think soo#

I wa hammered so I'm not sure

I think

[rose plover]

I would’ve gone tonight if I had the money to splurge on VIP

[rose plover]

Sounds like u still r

[thin sable]

Oh very

If anyone is near upper eastern Manhattan come visit btw

[brittle flicker]

He OD’ed

I was on the rail

[gleaming mulch]

Hey I was right behind u

[brittle flicker]

ONG????

[gleaming mulch]

Kinda! Lol I'll show one vid then pass out because oh man..I'm tired and dehydrated lol

My nite started here, and then we ended getting closer and closer due to short peeps problems

Also just wanna point out, the last thing I ate was like a bag of chips, soda and a candy bar May 3rd 1:45pm, didn't eat or drink anything until after the concert ended, how am I alive right now, I have no idea

[nocturne quiver]

God these visuals with v3 are unreal

[plush smelt]

If anyone finds a recording of finished symphony lmk

that makes me happy

[gleaming mulch]

Single handedly, greatest concert of my life, this makes up for missing out on meowingtons hax tour 2k11 (still upset my chance to got robbed from me, but I digress)

Also did anyone happen to drop a set list from last nite?

I can attempt lol

[gleaming mulch]

He mentioned input output the song (?), then went on to mention i_o, "rest in peace, gone, but never forgotten, we miss you"

|| test ||

[thin sable]

Does anyone have the set list from last night?

I can't believe he played for as long as he did

Came on at what 11:30? Then went until 4

[strange raven]

holy shit he also brought the PUBG mau5head too

that’s so sick

[gleaming mulch]

I'm currently in the middle of writing it, I took at least like a min vid for each song then enjoyed myself lol

Not done, but I don't mind sharing

[thin sable]

Oh thanks man, that's awesome!

[outer flower]

Is it pretty much the same as the previous nights

[gleaming mulch]

Should I put spoiler??

[outer flower]

With like minor changes

[thin sable]

Its retrospective channel but sure

[outer flower]

Up to you if you want to spoiler it.

This channel is all spoilers anyway

[thin sable]

Really? I mean he played a lot of extra last night I figured, given how long he played

[outer flower]

I forgot to add a question mark at the end

[thin sable]

Oh lol

Yeah I'm sure a lot of the set was the same though

[gleaming mulch]

Uhh, on mobile how do I spoiler tag a pic?

[outer flower]

Select the picture, then click on the picture and click mark as spoiler

[gleaming mulch]

Thank you, first one was a test, merch doh

1st page

2nd page

[outer flower]

LOL writing it on paper. Classic

[gleaming mulch]

3rd page and currently not done lol

[outer flower]

Yeah the first three hours of the show was the same for the previous nights. Everything after might be different

[gleaming mulch]

I'm currently resting cuz I have a pounding headache, I'll hop back on the list afterwards, if anyone else's finishes it, I won't be mad lol

[gleaming mulch]

|| I know professional griefers in LA had the vocals, we got the instrumental, I ain't complaining tho lol ||

[rose plover]

Night 1 was the vocal mix
Or at least part of it was

[outer flower]

[opaque drum]

what was the encore?

was there a encore?

[gleaming mulch]

There was 2...

[outer flower]

I know HR was played again last night

[opaque drum]

neat.

[outer flower]

Seen from clips

But idk what else was played beside that

[opaque drum]

mane, wish he played aural psynapse.

would love hear it again on live performance.

[rose plover]

Aural Psynapse, You and I, Nextra…
But I’m not complaining. This setlist was still by far and away the best out of all the times I’ve seen him. He has a tendency to not switch things up that often

I’m glad it’s an honest to God anniversary tour. Another one of my favorite artists did that this year and they mostly played new stuff which was kind of a letdown

[rose plover]

Finished Symphony as well apparently

[outer flower]

Oh yeah that too

[rose plover]

Wonder if EDC will get the cube this year

Fingers crossed that livestream is jammed w oldies just like these sets. Probably not tho since it’s a festival

[outer flower]

Doubt it, they rarely do special stage setups. I think they last did for Kx5

[rose plover]

Yea I mean. EDC’s stages r usually already pretty awesome by themselves lol
Ig it depends whether or not he gets a headline slot

[steep burrow]

BRUH

[heavy rivet]

gonna make you a resident mad role

[outer flower]

real

[steep burrow]

man, you really got me and hifriend big mad.

[gleaming mulch]

I'm sorrryyy

[thin sable]

He played Mercedes too

And Arguru

[outer flower]

Oh shit nice

[thin sable]

Yuhhh

[outer flower]

Arguru is also a W

[thin sable]

Big W, we were screeching for it and then dude played for another hour for the encore LOL

[opaque drum]

what songs did he play for the encore?

[thin sable]

Will not lie, I was pretty phased at that point so I gotta check my videos

[feral grove]

Encore was awesome, but everyone was just in it.

[thin sable]

Gonna need some videos of everything 😼 went nuts for the Zelda intro for Sofi

[outer flower]

did he play luxuria tinlicker remix last night too or no

i created the tracklist, encore order maybe incorrect bc i dont have any videos but this is based on what you guys have said in here. https://www.1001tracklists.com/tracklist/25df25tk/deadmau5-retro5pective-the-brooklyn-mirage-new-york-united-states-2024-05-03.html

Ah shit I should’ve got a poster on Thursday night lol

Rip

[hasty merlin]

||smack my bitch up should be somewhere toward the end of the night - start of encore??? idk I was up for over 20 hours yesterday so I’m a little fuzzy. glad I’m not the only one that song is a guilty pleasure for LOL ||

[outer flower]

Oh shit?

[thin sable]

https://youtu.be/UxooNw7g2ww?si=fcw0KywrOTJMUu3O

Started tearing up almost crying during Bored of Canada with the old clips of him are on the screens

Fuck, so good. Wish I was sober for this show

[heavy rivet]

broooo

I need to know who brought their whole ass willpower and charged phone

Just to record a 3 hour 9x16 video for youtube

[outer flower]

LMAO

and they didnt even get the fucking encore

Apparently they just propped up their phone on a beer can

[heavy rivet]

new york moment

we can tracklist it though

[outer flower]

Already did

[heavy rivet]

was it all identical?

[outer flower]

.

From what I can tell and from some people on reddit, the encore is mostly the same but with some changes

[hasty merlin]

yeah - I didn’t take any videos but it was definitely a thing. either pre or post pee break/crew thank you/encore

[outer flower]

Well unless someone else corroborates it ill add it

[thin sable]

Yeah that pissed me off, wanted to watch that

[outer flower]

Its the only part i care about

Main show ive already seen

[thin sable]

Think he will change it up a bit for RR?

Considering it's 6 months out

[outer flower]

Probably, probably not

[thin sable]

Idc id still love to hear bored of Canada again

[outer flower]

I think for the most part itll be the same

[thin sable]

I know red rocks has a 12am curfew, so hopefully the show starts pretty early

[outer flower]

Might change up the encore, or have no encore

Maybe like one or two songs like LA

[thin sable]

Yeah we got no encore last year, was rough

[nocturne quiver]

Did they start the show right at doors for LA and NYC?

[heavy rivet]

in hollywood, doors was 5:30 and MEUTE started at 7

this is what axs says for red rocks, so whoever opens will start at 7

[nocturne quiver]

Damn thought they'd be earlier. Guess I'll be getting in line pretty early then

[thin sable]

Hoping for another 4 hour set

@outer flower yeah I think there's a few tracks missing from the encore, because it lasted about an hour and a half

Just can't see that only being 8 tracks lol

[outer flower]

[thin sable]

I'm just sayin

We gotta find those tracks 😼

[outer flower]

aint got no videos and no other tracks

no one sayin shit on reddit either

[thin sable]

Wish I could help but my memory is shot

[outer flower]

[thin sable]

Yuh

[astral gyro]

As Joel said reddit is gonna be like "reeee"

[outer flower]

[astral gyro]

I think? Iirc it was the last song before the 2 song encore of Arguru & Finished Symphony

[outer flower]

https://i.imgur.com/0gOwNDK.png

[gilded plover]

Nah you're good lol I just hopped into this channel and then saw you post the list

[gleaming mulch]

[vestal spoke]

sounds like only like one and a half change from the LA set tbh

at most

[astral gyro]

And that's just up to the pee break 😂

[heavy rivet]

bro i'm tapping on your list like some damn bubble wrap

[vestal spoke]

i'm jelly of the encore tbh

and the cube

[gleaming mulch]

i think i tried it and it wasnt working so i just had to go with this method lol

[vestal spoke]

but it kinda makes sense given the venues

also i can't imagine em packing up, shipping, and setting up cube v3 in under a week

[astral gyro]

Cube plus mirage led wall is such a great experience

[vestal spoke]

across the opposite side of the entire country

not like i could've done brooklyn instead since it's age restricted

[outer flower]

oh damn i got it almost right on my attempt and digging through instagram and reddit.

[gleaming mulch]

as for my sources goes, obviously i was there, and i recorded least like 30 seconds to 1 min of each song, i was listening hard for the differences in queues and set ups x_x

[vestal spoke]

maybe if i like win the lottery or smth i'll try to go to red rocks

[gleaming mulch]

ooohhhh thatll be fun

[outer flower]

variant and silhouette are correct he played those n1 also

[gleaming mulch]

woohoo!

[vestal spoke]

it's another kid friendly venue though so prob won't go too late with an encore either

[outer flower]

he didnt play one of his own IDs after Luxuria ov?

he did in n1

[vestal spoke]

heard people talk about ||input output|| getting played tho

that'd be exciting

heard it for the first time live as the opener in the middle of the waf tour

[gleaming mulch]

unless i mustve blanked at in that moment, in orders of all videos i took, thats what i have jotted down lol

[outer flower]

OK NOW its fixed in its entirety

https://www.1001tracklists.com/tracklist/25df25tk/deadmau5-retro5pective-the-brooklyn-mirage-new-york-united-states-2024-05-03.html

also idk if its Smack my bitch up original or noisia remix since thats what he would play ages ago

[gleaming mulch]

Noisia remix most likely

glad i could be of any assistance, this was a fun experience lol

this was the longest concert i have ever been to, and definitely the latest i got home lol

[hasty merlin]

genuinely one of the best times I’ve had

[outer flower]

im glad you enjoyed it. thanks for your assistance on the setlist

[gleaming mulch]

[clear phoenix]

||FINISHED SYMPHONY?||

[gleaming mulch]

||Indeed||

[clear phoenix]

|| ||

[gleaming mulch]

||very indeed||

Also lookey what I also got

I scored disco mau5, and a rubiks cube, cuz I like these things lol

[heavy rivet]

oh shit disco-mau5 is holographic

that's neat

[gleaming mulch]

Right?! My fiance she got classic mau5 and my little sister scored....Pixl Mau5

Also this rubiks cube is a lot heavier than expected lol

[rose plover]

Seeing that both sets were so similar wish we had gotten Arguru
But I wouldn’t trade the A1 vibes and lack of overcrowding for that
I would trade Tommy Lee tho lol

[gleaming mulch]

Uploading all these videos to YouTube and insta will be fun, but I'm still hellah drained, those will roll out somewhat slowly

Also glad my poster survived, some drinks were spilled on me here and there

[heavy rivet]

realizing that the brooklyn poster doesn't have MEUTE on it

[gleaming mulch]

or callie

[heavy rivet]

Wish they had the supports on it but none of them probably will

but the Hollywood one has the MEUTE line on it

[gleaming mulch]

this one from cube V3 tour, Callie and Jay Robinson had their own variants, but i didnt see them in physical form

[gilded plover]

Oh this mf OPENED THE VAULT

[strange raven]

awwwww that's so sick

[gleaming mulch]

For those curious about the rubiks cube

[vestal spoke]

i was working on solving it while waiting for my flight last week and forgot the last algorithm, haven't cubed in ages

also forgot how much of a pain picture cubes are

[gleaming mulch]

oh yeah lmao gotta love it

[heavy rivet]

https://youtu.be/jQcozhzYF54?si=DacajUFzUyJSmJid

HE POSTED A HORIZONTAL RECORDING LOL

[gleaming mulch]

[outer flower]

LMAOOO NO WAY

the vertical recording was for tiktok and youtube shorts

and still no encore recording

[gleaming mulch]

by the time we got to the tail end of it all, my phone as at 1 percent

[nocturne quiver]

Strange youtube won't let me change the quality on it

[outer flower]

its still processing HD

[nocturne quiver]

Even if it's totally grayed out?

[outer flower]

when its done processing HD itll show the rest of the quality choices

[nocturne quiver]

It doesn't even let me click on quality at all, completely grayed out

Oh well

[astral gyro]

dude literally said he hasn't played it in about 15 years. Also said something about reddit is gong to get worked up over it later

[thin sable]

Worked up how

[astral gyro]

"Reddit is gonna be like Reeeee" is what was said i think

[cloud swan]

that's exactly what he said lol i've been peeking at the subreddit on and off all day to see if anybody's yelling about it yet

[astral gyro]

It was the remix

[outer flower]

ty

[rose plover]

Ah I should’ve copped a poster rip

[candid lichen]

Someone ping me if footage of him supposedly playing Mercedes, Roygbiv remix, and Finished Symphony remix surface

[warm garnet]

Wait I missed how we get the retrospective role 😭

[warm garnet]

I got a video of Mercedes

[strange raven]

you attended any of the shows ? :O

[warm garnet]

Yeah I went to the Brooklyn mirage show on Friday night

[strange raven]

hmmmmm......

hey what's that over there?!

[warm garnet]

👀

[strange raven]

oh dude nice role wtf

[warm garnet]

Also gave this to Joel before the show

[strange raven]

LOL WHAAAAT

what did he say lol?

[warm garnet]

I don’t remember haha, I’m pretty sure he just said “neat” and rolled his eyes at me and laughed when I told him the Mohawk represents the spiked yellow hair he had in those old pictures hahaha

[strange raven]

HAHAHA NICE

that's so funnny man

[warm garnet]

I was very bummed they did not have any Lego heads with glasses lol

[strange raven]

awwwww damn

well hey man mission accomplished you gave joel a Lego lmao

[strange raven]

poor chris my mans is working hard

[thin sable]

I didn't even understand what this mans was doing

[normal patio]

He danced a lot but discretely

That was fun

I looked at him more than Lights

[thin sable]

Can't believe the retrospective hype is dead for a few months

[warm garnet]

I will keep the hype going, I feel like I have to go to the red rocks show now

[nocturne quiver]

I'd be so interested to know what his actual job is like and what he does on the day to day. It's gotta be a ton of work

[cloud swan]

wait can i get the retro5pective role too? i was there friday night

[restive token]

I’m surprised the PINs didn’t sell out

Did they sell out at HB?

[plush smelt]

does anyone have a vid of finished symphony

o nvm

i see

nvm again :c

is there any footage of encore 2

i am unsuccessful in my attempt of finding it

[steep burrow]

Tour/Stage Manager, he makes sure that everything goes smoothly by communicating with venue and production staff to keep things on time and with the equipment required.

[nocturne quiver]

Everyone IMMEDIATELY go to 1:14:40 and watch Chris

[astral gyro]

[rose plover]

This might be a controversial take
We didn’t need the full 11 min version of The Veldt

Also I miss the real-time rendered head tracking for the mau5head 😦

[cloud swan]

i liked the full version personally but valid

but i love the drums

[cloud swan]

oh yeah i wanted to say to this earlier me and my girlfriend are the ones you gave the meowingtons and the attention whore bracelets after the show!!

[coral pond]

awesome to see PLUR still being a thing lol

[hasty merlin]

ahhh hello!!!!!!! hope you liked them!!

[cloud swan]

we love them, i've never traded/received kandi before so they're particularly special now

[gleaming mulch]

i feel like its a nice/unique piece of memorabilia, kinda like movie posters?

[rose plover]

Yea no for sure

I need one lol

[slender pasture]

Watching your video finally @outer flower - Feeling stupid that im a klutz that fractured her foot and couldn't make it to this venue. So far it's incredible. Goosebumps and it's only been 20 minutes.

[thin sable]

🥺pls share

[thin sable]

Nobody got footage of finished symphony huh?😞

[feral grove]

Lemme check @thin sable

Nope seems I was too hung up on Quetz and the next take is DJ sesh.

[formal raft]

I thought about recording a clip but wanted to fully experience it in the moment lol

And I don’t regret it

[thin sable]

I was in it too but I don't remember the encore as well as I hoped I would :/ drank too much

And what sucks is we probably won't hear those songs at red rocks given the curfew, unless he does an after party and plays them there😅

[cloud swan]

i'm sure somebody somewhere managed to get it but. if it turns up online is a different question

i was too lost in the moment to even think of recording that shit had me legit emotional

[gleaming mulch]

totally understandable

[formal raft]

Can I get the retrospective role too since I went to night 2 at mirage? 🫣

[gleaming mulch]

also, im still uploading like a mad lad, can anyone help me with something, its kinda funny actually

|| who is this lad, because i caught him jamming out and being a funny guy here and there lol||

[formal raft]

I think I read here in the server that his name is Chris and he’s the Tour/Stage manager

[gleaming mulch]

[slender pasture]

you know I would have liked to have seen some of the drone footage from either show

[strange raven]

you got any pics to share :)@ahif

[gilded plover]

aka the Cube babysitter 🙂

[outer flower]

I couldve sworn there was a clip of not exactly that had mercedes transitioning out

I dont remember if it was posted in here or if i found a tagged post on instagram

[rose plover]

It’s hilarious during Meute and BSOD the room was still filling up and whoever was running the drone was just going apeshit cause the thing was loud as hell going NYAAAAAAAAAAA whizzing right above our heads

[slender pasture]

THAT.. is awesome 👍

[rose plover]

Nah it really wasn’t
Everyone was just tryna enjoy the show and this thing kept ruining all the quiet parts

The equivalent of going up to someone in a movie theater and shouting “HEY!”

[slender pasture]

Well I could see how that would be annoying, but there were parts where the drone flew past the stages and performers very close, offering footage only a unique camera angle could have captured. I Hope we all get to see it if not in a video tribute or biography someday.

[rose plover]

Yeah but that's the problem right there
The fact that a once-in-a-lifetime set was disrupted for the off-chance we MIGHT one day get to see a couple seconds of that drone footage in a highlight reel
It really wasn't cool and everyone around us started laughing nervously bc they were confused/annoyed by it as well

Like does anyone even know wtf ever happened to the CUBE V3 show in Chicago? Supposedly the entire thing was proshot
Haven't heard shit about it

[nocturne quiver]

If I remember correctly I think there was some kind of conflict/issue with editing it

[slender pasture]

I'd have to agree - If it's ruining the guest experience, you'd have to question them if it's worth it. I Didn't see any lights or anything on it either. I Was wondering was it part of the show? Was it a fly by? Did they say anything at the gate or was there a sign noting the night was being recorded? I Mean gawd forbid it went out of control and took someone out like a 98 mph hockey puck!

[outer flower]

The cube v3 show was done with editing AGES ago

They just never got around to releasing it

[rose plover]

And like everything else that's cool it's just sitting on a media server in Joel's basement...

[rose plover]

There were lights on it p sure they were just status lights tho
No signs specifying active recording but it's the Mirage there's almost always a drone flying over from someone's media team
I just don't remember it ever being that fucking loud
At the very least like. Wait until it's a loud song so nobody knows
I stg tho this mfer was just like NYAAAAAAAAAA right above everyone's fuckin heads during Creep

[slender pasture]

yes that would be disappointing - Im sorry to hear that ☹️ but the experience overall, you had a good time?

[rose plover]

Oh yeah. I'm comfortable now saying it was one of the best concerts I've ever been to in my life
And I've been to over 200 including one of the AG shows from the CUBE V3 tour so that's some high praise

I said it before and I'll say it again
I think our "augmented CUBE V3" setup was way cooler than the original. Basically his has more lights, ours had more video, BUT we made up for it by incorporating lasers
I'm not aware of any CUBE V3 shows that had lasers

[outer flower]

FINALLY

God bless you and your future wife for the clips

Now josh can rest easy lol

[gleaming mulch]

whats an even crazier thought from just lookin at the vid itself, theres no other phones in sight. meaning this wouldve just been a fever dream if no one had it recorded. this song was gunna escape us again, never to be seen, again x_x. glad we captured it when we did lol

[candid lichen]

INSANE

[candid lichen]

YES

Looks like he also played the 'not q' ID as well
https://old.reddit.com/r/deadmau5/comments/1clux4r/track/

[outer flower]

i knew it

but does he play it after input output like he did night 1

Twitter · May 6, 2024, 2:30 PM

[thin sable]

Looking back on it, the show was AMAZING but he did play his basic usual stuff during the middle of the show (after hard intro). The encore and the start of the show was the best part imo

Though I understand seeing live performances was awesome, I just mean in terms of song selection

What do you guys think? Which part(s) were most enjoyable?

[normal patio]

I totally understand but as a first timer I'm so glad he played his biggest tracks : Raise Your Weapon (the Noisia one), I Remember, Escape, Monophobia, Avaritia, Strobe ov etc for me it was those that made the show unforgettable

Creep and Last Life did hit so hard though

[thin sable]

Strobe ov and Raise your Weapon I can agree with 100%, those were awesome. But I do understand some shows are people's first, was just hoping for more old stuff given the name of the tour haha

[thin sable]

Extremely hard, I was in tears during bored of Canada and creep

[normal patio]

Do you went Thursday or Friday ?

[thin sable]

I went Friday

[warm garnet]

I gotchu

[normal patio]

Cool you were there for the testpilot hour

[plush smelt]

beast

i would have been so sad if there werent any recordings

unreal song

[formal raft]

I felt the same, as soon as I heard Bored of Canada with the fan videos showing, it was so nostalgic and reminded me of listening to Get Scraped when I was just getting into the mau5 in high school. I’ve also had the melody stuck in my head since he played it lol

[gleaming mulch]

All thanks goes to le future wife

Now I can't speak for others behind me while the song was playing. But the video shows that almost no one had their phones out by this point, which means it would've escape us had no one recorded

I'd like to think others did, but no one has posted it, I think maybe 1 from the Hollywood bowl?

[mighty torrent]

why cant i find it on youtube
Usually unreleased songs can be found there, but not this one
any idea where i can find it?

[candid lichen]

bc it's a new ID, so Joel and team don't want leaks and therefore they're removed from Youtube

[opaque drum]

could also probably wait till it’s released from the new album that’s coming “soon”.

[rose plover]

Hot take
I’m actually really fucking glad we didn’t get My Pet Coelacanth
Out of all the sets I’ve seen him play that song always feels like the most pointless addition. And idk why it’s so consistent either

[vestal spoke]

FUCK

[slender pasture]

it wasnt played, but my favourite in the whole world is still There Might be Coffee

[vestal spoke]

that one got me into deadmau5 tbh

would've loved to hear it

[thin sable]

I don't think this is hot, just right on the money. There were a few other songs in that set I could've lived without

[warm garnet]

too big to post so I have to upload it to youtube

[thin sable]

WOOO that's how you know it's good

[vestal spoke]

i'm surprised this many people assumed it was gonna be a retro show

[outer flower]

i mean, its in the name.

[vestal spoke]

like the branding was 20 25 years of deadmau5, not deadmau5 20 25 years ago

i knew it was gonna be a trip through time, old and new stuff

i thought chronologically would be too obvious, but that's what we got and it was still really cool

[outer flower]

i kinda hoped he would play more old stuff

in the main 3 hours of the set

[vestal spoke]

i am jelly of the encore 🙃

but like i'd imagine the bowl being an all ages venue em not wanting him to go too late

prob why they moved the start time

found out it was gonna be a really long set

[rose plover]

Monophobia isn’t one of them
I needed that shit after a breakup

[vestal spoke]

monophobia was my favorite part of the show tbh

[thin sable]

Exactly, hate that hearing old stuff is something we have to pray for during the encore

[thin sable]

It should be

[mighty torrent]

But what a bout input output and unlucky ?
Did these get leaked ?

[candid lichen]

those are also 'new' IDs, so yeah not on youtube

Unlucky was 'released' here though:
https://audius.co/deadmau5/deadmau5-unlucky-work-in-progress-333797

[gleaming mulch]

I sang my heart out at monophobia, it's been my top favorite for awhile now

[vestal spoke]

actually saaame!!

i asked one of the people i was with to record it for me

you can probably hear my voice all over it

he hated the visuals.

[gleaming mulch]

I always love how someone has something to day about the visuals to monophobia lol

[vestal spoke]

i love em, esp the live ones

[gleaming mulch]

Did he say he just hated them? No extra reasons why??

[vestal spoke]

the cut between the more serious shots of rob and the smearballs animalgamation is just a really cool diametric opposition imo

is that intentional? prob not

but hits hard for me

[gleaming mulch]

Indeed

It does slap

[vestal spoke]

he said it's a lot like sid from toy story, just creating abominations out of human and nonhuman things, which can be cool and has its place, but really not his thing

[vestal spoke]

i kinda see it as like the state of being down, processing your problems and emotions, in this case specifically that's about being alone, and then opposing that to getting lost in escapism with your "imaginary friends", which i kinda see as a metaphor for video games, internet chatrooms, or whatever you do in place of touching grass yknow

i heard a rumor that the video was originally supposed to be for imaginary friends

which also seems pretty fitting

[gleaming mulch]

Ahhhh, I see, and that's fair

[gleaming mulch]

I DEFINITELY resonate with how you view it, I definitely view it in the same fashion as well. And is that true? I always miss these rumor things so I can never tell

[vestal spoke]

idk

[gleaming mulch]

But it does raise an eye brow, a music video to imaginary friends..whoa

[vestal spoke]

i read it in a youtube comment

[gleaming mulch]

Youtube comments are a great pass time durin lunch breaks at work

[vestal spoke]

fanart for it trying to capture that i made for an intro drawing class a couple years back
#art message

[mighty torrent]

I get that but like unlucky that track is realesed at some point but like the "not q" track i cant find that one and it sounds fire ngl

[gilded plover]

He's got like 5 months to tweak the setlist so hopefully he plays out more deep cuts

[thin sable]

magically releases an album in that time and plays more new stuff

[gilded plover]

[gleaming mulch]

[thin sable]

No god no please no, no more new stuff at retrospective 😭

I don't want to lose clockwork lol

[gilded plover]

nah if anything he's just going to expand the setlist

Red Rocks is the penultimate show so I would expect it to be a much longer show

[brittle flicker]

Mine was Pomegranate cuz I’m weird 😂

And strobe

[brittle flicker]

But he played Project 56???

[thin sable]

I was more so speaking in a general sense of all his shows. The start of the show before the cube was fantastic in terms of song selection

[brittle flicker]

O

[thin sable]

But yes hearing Bored of Canada was sick

[brittle flicker]

[thin sable]

Yeah maybe, hopefully there's no openers because music will probably start at 7 and venue closes at midnight so we'll see

[brittle flicker]

There’s always openers😭

[thin sable]

I know😞

[brittle flicker]

Meute was unbelievable omg

[thin sable]

Maybe this one time we will get a special no opener show

[thin sable]

Yeah they were DOPE

[brittle flicker]

I wanted more of them haha!

[thin sable]

They were cool but for me a novelty, was awesome seeing them once but I would've much preferred hearing slip from the mau

I guess I just like to complain LOL, awesome show, I should just stay happy for what we get at red rocks

[brittle flicker]

SO HYPE FOR RED ROCKS!!!!

[thin sable]

HYPE HYPE

[candid lichen]

only way I can see that happening is if he starts super early like Skrillex did for his 5-hour set. Otherwise reason Mirage was so long is bc it's open late (til like 4am i think?)

[gilded plover]

truuuu I didn't account for curfew

yeah that'd be the only way it would be longer

I just wonder if at his age he has the stamina to do a 5 hour set

[heavy rivet]

would hate to account for joel's age, but I would absolutely LOVE to see him do an open-to-close club show

spencer brown just announced one in a couple months

[gilded plover]

open to close show sounds insane

feet would be aching like a mf lmfao

[heavy rivet]

they've been growing in popularity lately

[gilded plover]

interesting, I mean if he's open to do it by all means

[heavy rivet]

it might be more appealing if it was b2b with friends

it's joel all day at heart, but it's influenced by friends

he did a surprise b3b with spencer and p.o.s in vegas a year ago, some sunrise set somewhere

heard management was pissed about it lmao

[gilded plover]

lmfao I wonder how they'd be pissed

[heavy rivet]

it's for the same reason you can't perform anywhere else during miami music week if you're playing at ultra

technical shit

like when you see someone's name say exclusive on the ultra poster

vegas is incredibly strict about residencies and shit lol

[gilded plover]

See okay yep that's sort of what I figured lol. Exclusivity rights and whatnot.

its bs from an artist standpoint but the business perspective I get it

[heavy rivet]

they didn't give a high flying fuuuuuck

[outer flower]

P.o.s?

[heavy rivet]

ye

1/3 of above and beyond, awesome project

[outer flower]

Ah

[heavy rivet]

he sorta popped back up in 2023 after being dormant for like 9 years

did some collabs with spencer, put an album out

[thin sable]

Would that mean no opener?

[heavy rivet]

Exactly

[thin sable]

Can only hope for that at Red Rocks, since Meute won't be there

Mods, work your magic

✨✨

[heavy rivet]

layton also did one back in march

[thin sable]

Slap some pee breaks in there and sounds easy enough to do

That reminds me, I otta bring a diaper to red rocks so I don't miss anything when I gotta pee

[outer flower]

Just go once you get to the venue

Unless you drink a ton lol

Go in the middle of meute

[heavy rivet]

be like me, go pee during strobe because it's always 10 minutes 💀

[outer flower]

i was so confused why you went in the middle of strobe lmao

[heavy rivet]

because everything else was important and every set ends with strobe

finna die on this hill

[river leaf]

yet it didn't end on strobe this time

[rose plover]

Red Rocks will not be longer than the Mirage. They already started getting noise complaints in recent years and had to turn it down
Mirage is a music venue but in practice it really operates more like a nightclub in terms of when shows start and finish
That’s why he went for so long

Mirage is the only place I’ve consistently seen DJs go way over their allotted time
Partially bc they got the NYPD in their back pocket and they know they can

[outer flower]

Must be nice

[gilded plover]

that's tuff

didn't think you could get noise complaints in the mountains but I guess so

[gleaming mulch]

Maybe they get complaints from the skinwalkers or wendigos or something, can't say I blame them

[thin sable]

We won't come off stage before midnight though, there's no way

Who tf is giving noise complaints at Red Rocks😭

[rose plover]

Depends if it’s a weekend or not

[thin sable]

It's Friday and Saturday we good

[rose plover]

Bass travels far. 2x as far as mid and high frequencies

Those d&b SL Subs r nothing to sneeze at. Literally. I remember being at a techno show once and feeling them shake my nosehairs

[thin sable]

Yeah but the nearest house is dang near 3 miles away, even if you can hear it no way it's that loud. Idk I figure it must be pretty dang faint, and people wanting to cry

But maybe im wrong and just butthurt

[rose plover]

Ppl make noise complaints for Mirage too they just dgaf bc like I said the cops r in on the racket
I remember one night hearing Excision clear as a bell from over a quarter mile away on Metropolitan Ave

[thin sable]

Haha that's pretty awesome actually, I'd be enjoying the concert

But I see the point

[rose plover]

The issue is it’s surrounded by mountains and valleys as far as the eye can see
There’s no noise pollution to mask it

[thin sable]

Let's pay off the Morrison police

No

Let's buy out Morrison and bull doze it

[rose plover]

Oh yea it was awesome
But it was at Brooklyn Navy Yard which is surrounded by commercial buildings and the East River. Nobody’s making a noise complaint over there, even if the bass is so heavy it’s literally rattling the building’s windows

[rose plover]

wtf r u smoking bro those sandstone boulders r over 600 million years old
U wanna bulldoze history?

[thin sable]

No not the boulders

Just the homes

😁

[rose plover]

Sounds like some colonialist BS but ok

[thin sable]

Heck yeah

[thin sable]

This is pretty cool to see

If we doze a few boulders by mistake they'll still be 600million years old, just slightly smaller

[rose plover]

Nah I ain’t no colonizer or gentrifier

[thin sable]

But we share love for music that goes beep and boo

[brittle flicker]

That’s crazy. I do not have the energy for that.

[thin sable]

Manifest it👊🏼

[steep burrow]

DUDE I was like 20 feet from the front during Madeon early november and the bass was so goddamn strong I had low end tinitus on the way home

[cloud swan]

those frequencies are no joke

i used to come out of concerts with everything sounding like i was underwater before i decided to go to school for music i refuse to not wear earplugs anymore

[vestal spoke]

music shows are generally engineered to sound better with earplugs in

wear them

it's not safe to not wear em

[cloud swan]

i like loops personally i wore those to brooklyn and i could hear everything perfect

[hasty merlin]

I really like the loops, I found them really comfortable and didn’t need to adjust them! Sound is the same as the eargasm earplugs IMO but less hassle putting them in

[thin sable]

What was the helmet deadmau had on during some chords at Brooklyn? Was that the robotic helmet?

[strange raven]

this one ?

oh you mean this one

[thin sable]

Yeah this one!

[strange raven]

this is the PUBG helmet

[thin sable]

Yeah it's DOPE

[strange raven]

yeah he played with it at the PUBG Pax East thingy in 2018 lol

[vernal mantle]

I coudn't believe he busted that one out

[cloud swan]

pretty sure the ears are real cast iron too

[rose plover]

That would be incredibly heavy and uncomfortable. Esp w all the electronics already inside the thing

Likely foam core with a really good paint job

[cloud swan]

i'm basing it off of a comment i'm fairly certain he actually made about it and how heavy it was a couple years back when it debuted

i need to dig around for it though

[feral grove]

Whoa that one is gorgeous 🖤

Dude… it kind of reminds me of the nautical diving helmets 0.o

[brittle flicker]

Lmaooo how powerful do u think Joel’s neck is

[cloud swan]

reiterating this comment because obviously that's heavy as hell for any person

[thin sable]

Nuh uh

[warm garnet]

You've made a mau5head right?

[gleaming mulch]

Finally getting around to putting them in frames, I have 2 because 1 is my home bois poster, but he forgot it when he got out of the car, but we were so tired and we live somewhat close so I'll give it to him when I see him again, but here's the dimensions if anyone was wondering

[topaz ridge]

Finally got done

[gleaming mulch]

Niiicceeeee

Also I guess I didn't notice this at first either??? This is from cube v3

[topaz ridge]

And numbered!

[gleaming mulch]

I got this poster just because I wanted it, I had no idea this entire time it was numbered

[restive token]

Did anyone get the plaque from HB?

[crisp badger]

Joel and Steve tearing it up at day 2 in Brooklyn

Unfortunately most of my phone memory was eaten up because I recorded literally all seven minutes of Quetzalcoatl 💀

[thin sable]

Oh no😭 will definitely be saving my phone battery for the encore/after party at RR, I did the same thing for almost all of BSOD

[crisp badger]

Dude I came sooo prepared. Brought a portable charger and everything. In my infinite wisdom I forgot to clear up space on my phone LOL

[zealous axle]

Found myself in some uploaded video XD will share ASAP

[slender pasture]

So cute the boy and girl Mau5. Couples Goals. That's what I want 😊

[thin sable]

We will probably never be so lucky 😞

[slender pasture]

..What?! I Refuse to believe that. I'll find someone, I just don't have time right now.

and so will you

[vestal spoke]

hard to find other zoomers that are into more progressive music, most of em are into the new quick & heavier stuff

and then there's my bf who listens to nothing but indie acoustic/low fidelity stuff

[slender pasture]

Grin, but at least you have a BF 😋

[vestal spoke]

yeah i've been there, finding someone's hard work, it still is hard work once you do yknow

[zealous axle]

lol single for life at this point XD she’s gotta be fkn pretty damn amazing. Fk wasting my time and money

[mighty torrent]

what is that track?

is that a nother ID ??

i dont remember it

[opaque drum]

yehp, “not a q track” ID, was worked on during July 2023.

[mighty torrent]

so its not Quetzalcoatl"
but a diverent track?

[opaque drum]

although we aren’t sure what the track will be named if we see the light of the day and Quetzalcoatl has different style than this ID.

[mighty torrent]

alr

i hope a new album is coming soon

https://tenor.com/view/deadmau5-wink-winking-winking-with-both-eyes-wink-wink-gif-19843914

[opaque drum]

only time will tell, it could be this year, but who knows.

[zealous axle]

Which one?

[mighty torrent]

this one

second video

[zealous axle]

Ahh the day of the deadmau5 track I call it but yeah this track fkn slaps but I think next summer release to coincide with the second/third leg of retro shows

I don’t k ow the name I actually confused it with input_output before

[mighty torrent]

ye but input output is also realy good

i hope a new album just comes soon

[zealous axle]

I’m glad he won’t release that.

Let it stay unique in the fact it’s a tribute track and we get to hear it if he chooses to honor i_o

Imo

[opaque drum]

eh? he’s not releasing input output?

[zealous axle]

I truly doubt it based on the above and the way he talked about it during retro

“I’ve never really released” so he’s aware of the obvious he could by now

[opaque drum]

but he’s already confirmed that it’ll be on the album tho?, whenever that “album” drops lel.

[zealous axle]

I’ve never heard him confirm that

But if it’s on the new album im sure we will find out but I hope he doesn’t

It would be nice I guess I’m saying, rather than I expect it just cuz

[opaque drum]

this was on February for the screenshots.

[zealous axle]

Ah well there ya have it

Chance medley PLEZ dear god be the mellow track not the hyper distorted one

Not that I got that one but I happened to catch the mellow version in Boston a bit back and man that’s on par with Polaris

[opaque drum]

“Apnea” was somewhat great, kinda felt like it was trippy to listen, but chance medley… oh boy that could become another summer song like pomegranate.

But i hope “I See Fire” will be that “Resaved” song and hope it’ll be on the album, I totally neeeeds it.

[zealous axle]

Yeah I called it chance medley cuz while apnea was a nice tweak on it, it’s more like a The Veldt meets Banhammer, which I would love to have

[opaque drum]

I wonder if “200 years” will be on the album, hopefully it’ll be the interlude for chance medley.

[sand wave]

I'm waiting for the album bro.

[blissful flare]

Any day now

[ancient ingot]

i hate to be a pessimist but the album will probably be pushed back to after retro5spective

happy to be wrong though

[blissful flare]

Ofc he will release it when he wants, that’s his right. Just hope if we do have an album inbound it is at a time unexpected

[restive token]

I’m curious if the whole retrospective shows will be put in like a documentary/movie. That’ll kindof catalog Deadmau5 and his 25 years in the game. I think that would be reallly cool

[blissful flare]

It’s weird how most shows ( even retrospective) have heavy camera action but we only ever see clips. Do most artist just record their shows semi to fully professionally and then just not do much with it? Seems like a waste of cash, but I’m no successful artist so my perspective is skewed.
I do hope we get something, documentary, maybe. Whole show posted to YouTube, most likely.

[strange raven]

i hope so too man :/

[nocturne quiver]

Did they film both shows so far?

[blissful flare]

Pretty sure he mentioned it being documented in some capacity.

[zealous axle]

It’s gonna be documented pretty much once the whole runs done

[river owl]

I saw film crews at the Brooklyn show and drones

[zealous axle]

Fax drone city

[vestal spoke]

were there any full recordings of the meute set at hollywood?

[outer flower]

Funny you should mention that

I actually ended up recording it

Very rarely do I do full opener recordings but I did for theirs

[vestal spoke]

my family became like bigger fans of meute than they did joel from that set lol

[outer flower]

Ill post it tonight.

[vestal spoke]

sweet thx!!

[thin sable]

Can't stop thinking about this show

[outer flower]

https://youtu.be/C9AR9UKHhGs

Finally posted it lol

[cloud swan]

lol me and my gf were pretty much right under you we got put just behind all the bottle service tables by the ADA coordinator

[thin sable]

Right on. Not the best spot, GA would've been better for the down-the-center view but great show regardless!

I plan on being eeeearly to red rocks, will try to get the rail right behind sound booth

[cloud swan]

unfortunately we didn't have much of a choice in our spot bc my girlfriend is in a wheelchair so we got put in the "accessible" section

which for the record was a nightmare at the start of the night and the ADA coordinator was NOT nice

gf is both in a wheelchair and hard of hearing and we were stuck behind all the VIPs at their tables, we were demanded to move further back into the corner and they put a barricade up in front of us and when we didn't immediately move because it was loud as fuck in there and again, my gf is hard of hearing, the ADA coordinator threatened to kick us out 😃

she could not see any of meute BSOD or WTF? and the coordinator was trying to be like "i don't understand what's so hard about moving back you can see the whole show from here" as she's. standing. and can see above people. which a wheelchair user is not capable of in that situation

but some of the guys at one of the front tables ended up inviting us over in like the last hour of the show and then gave us the table when they left so we had this view for the rest of the evening

still though the way my gf was treated was fucking abysmal

[heavy rivet]

I was sick to my stomach reading this thinking this was in Hollywood. Now that I know it was Mirage I'm not at all surprised

[cloud swan]

yep the accessibility there is downright horrendous

she also couldn't fit her wheelchair in the supposedly accessible bathroom stall which is crazy because hers is very small and compact so she had to get the coordinator over for that too

[thin sable]

That whole situation is ridiculous. Real shitty they clearly dont plan spacing and accessibility ahead of time, and the inconvenience they cause

[cloud swan]

she made a whole twitter thread @ing the mirage directly and posting pics of what was going on too

[heavy rivet]

The Mirage is a wonderful venue run by an incompetent company. Fuck. Avant. Gardner.

Been saying this
