Today a petition hit the internet titled “Ban Joel Thomas “deadmau5” Zimmerman from performing and/or appearing at any music festival based in the United States” and I can’t help but giggle at it. I’m going to guess that this start-up has something to do with the trolling that Joel committed at Ultra Music Festival.
I knew fans were sour, but starting a petition on ‘petitions.whitehouse.gov’ is next level butthurt. Though, this effort seemingly comes off as a joke, you just never know I guess – so much trolling. However, to think that 100,000 would sign this it is outrageous. It’s quite hilarious that I see people seriously promoting this all over the interwebz. 14 people has signed this… only 99,986 to go.
“On 29 March 2014, Joel Thomas “deadmau5” Zimmerman executed a travesty upon the millions (and millions) of EDM fans across America.
Deadmau5 trolled electronic dance aficionados by playing Animals, Old McDonald Had a Farm, and Levels sarcastically during his set at the Ultra Music Festival.
We urge Barack Obama to use all the powers of the presidency to ensure this never happens again.
Ban Joel Thomas “deadmau5″ Zimmerman from performing or appearing at any future music festival held in the United States. Deadmau5’s presence is a detriment to the economy and national security of America.”
