Deadmau5 collapses on stage
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 2 August 2010
Deadmau5, real name Joel Zimmerman, has been forced to cancel a number of upcoming shows after collapsing on stage in Washington DC on Saturday night.
A statement issued by the producer and DJ’s management reads: “Last night, whilst performing onstage at the 9:30 club in Washington DC, Deadmau5 collapsed, suffering exhaustion and vomiting. Medics at the venue took him directly to hospital where he is now under supervision. Deadmau5 is sad to advise his fans that on the strict advice of the doctors, he now has no choice but to cancel the next nine shows of his summer tour schedule to allow for his recovery”.
No UK shows are affected, and Deadmau5 is still expected to play Creamfields on 28 Aug.
