Deadmau5 brought his seminal electronic tunes to Red Rocks with opening acts JAUZ, Good Times Ahead and Volaris on November 3 and 4. He began the show without his infamous “mau5head” helmet for the first three songs before donning his Día de los Muertos-inspired mask for the rest of the night.
The two-night run at Red Rocks, which he dubs “Day of the Deadmau5,” is an annual tradition for the EDM artist, who got his start in the late ’90s.
Take a look at photos from his day-one set below:
Opener JAUZ dropped his remix of deadmau5 song “Ghosts ‘n Stuff.”

Before the show, deadmau5 came out and fooled the audience while wearing a ghost costume.

Deadmau5’s real name is Joel Zimmerman.

The deadmau5 mask is inspired by Zimmerman’s late cat, Meowingtons.

Zimmerman also visited his pop-up shop in Denver before the shows on November 3 and 4.

“There’s some mainstays, some thematic things I do with the universe,” Zimmerman told us ahead of the show.
