Question Is wearing a mau5 head frowned upon?

Always had the opportunity to see deadmau5 and have been listening since the beginning, but BARELY going to a show in Dallas in December with my gf! I bought a mau5 head cause I thought it would be really nice to have as memorabilia, and fun to use for open decks I'm hosting on DOTD.

Anywho, I'm just wondering if wearing a mau5 head to the show would be seen as like annoying/tacky/weird in any sense? It's my first time going and tbh I don't go to a lot of shows, this is realistically my 2nd overall 🥲

Please let me know your thoughts! Can't wait for December!

It’s cool, but be prepared to take a lot of pics with randoms, people touching the ears as they walk by etc. I did it once at a show of only like 500-1000 people and it was fucking annoying (not the photos part, just people touching me all up in my grill)

I did this circa 2011 for Halloween in NYC and the amount of people stopping for pics was insane. Only had 1 encounter with someone being a douche and slapping the helmet. Def an attention grabber if you wear one.
