Deadmau5, an electronic DJ with an LED- equipped mouse head piece performed on the Padre’s playing field Friday, Oct. 28 . Deadmau5 was to play at SOMA instead however so many people bought tickets that SOMA went over capacity, simply too many people wanted to go. Angela and I had the chance to go so we went for it. Angela Zhang and I set out on our journey, unknown and unstudied in the electro following  we would soon encounter. We filled the shoes of foreigners that day gently tried to assimilate. Fleet Foxes and The Bloody Beetroots wouldn’t help us here.   Of all the observations to be noted throughout the night, the following should be held in the highest precedence. All bodies displayed themselves without reservations. Perhaps in Halloween spirit or in the pure culture of the Deadmau5 experience, costumes ranged from men in diapers to half -naked women. These women and even a number of men  seemed to share  the group consciousness of wearing fairy wings as the sole accessory  to their bra and panty costume set.  Though the majority of the population that attended this electronic semi- rave excursion asked us if we were the nearest vendor of manufactured hallucinogens/ feel good chemical agents, we weren’t distracted at all. We were both so overwhelmed by bass makers and light projections which were a major part of the show. The music itself I felt was kind of similar to most electronic out there. Their uniqueness is really shown in the ‘drop’ or bouts of heavy bass that literally shake the audience. The Light shows, costumes the drop and body shaking bass made the show worthwhile. The CD tunes paled in comparison to such a performance and I understand a little better now why thousands of people go to see Deadmau5 perform. I’m sure Deadmau5 will  be touring for a long time in the future if every live performance continues to be like that.
