Deadmau5: Part 2

       Ok time for the second installment of my rant. Not only did Deadmau5 copy the helmet, but even more obviously, he copied the stage setup. Daft Punk are widely known for having the absolute best light/sound show in the history of the world (lol I know I'm pushing that a little, but their stage setup is at least in the top 3, and it is far better than that of Tiesto and Deadmau5). Daft Punks stage setup consists of an LCD screen geometric shape (pyramid), they have tube lights surrounding the LCD shape (the honeycomb of triangles) and they have a huge LED matrix screen behind everything that works like one big screen. Deadmau5 recently updated his stage setup (he used to have just a table with stage lights above it like any other DJ) and this updated setup includes an LCD geometric shape, tube lights surrounding the shape, and an LED matrix screen behind everything. Sounds familiar right? He basically copied the entire Daft Punk setup and tweaked little differences into it so he wouldn't get caught. Like instead of a LCD pyramid he has an LCD cube thing, instead of a honeycomb of tube lights he has a waveform of tube lights, but that's where the differences end, the LED matrix screen is of course the same. Like i said before though, deadmau5 cannot do anything nearly as well as daft punk can, and when compared next to daft punk, you see how deadmau5's stage setup, while similar just doesnt beat the original Daft Punk pyramid.
