January 2, 2012 Pronounced “deadmau5 Day” in Sin City
In perhaps one of the most incredible tributes ever to electronic dance music, Las Vegas mayor Carolyn G. Goodman has named January 2, 2012 “deadmau5 Day” in Las Vegas. The celebration coincides with the start of deadmau5‘s exclusive residency at the snazzy Wynn’s XS Nightclub and Encore Beach Club.
“The following for deadmau5 is phenomenal, and I applaud Mayor Goodman for recognizing both [deadmau5’s] remarkable persona alongside his ability to drive visitor traffic from fans traveling across the globe to experience his live sets.” — Jesse Waits, co-owner and managing partner of XS and Tryst
