What's with the weird looking Mickey Mouse on stage near the end of the Grammy Awards, and some people in the audience wearing blue light-up Mickey ears? I missed the name of the band and the song being played.
I'd be surprised if Disney doesn't jump right on that with both feet.

I didn't watch the Grammy's but looked at pictures this morning. Maybe you saw Deadmau5(pronounced Dead Mouse.) http://www.peoplestylewatch.com/people/ ... 06,00.html

I loved his playing the drums at D23 the best.

Probably, as he was nominated this year. And he's been using that imagery for quite some time now (Wikipedia says he's been active since 2005,) so it's pretty likely that Disney's not going to be smacking him down. (There are probably enough differences between his logo and a Mickey head that it isn't /quite/ infringement.)
