Hardwell's Canadian tour hits a snag in Kingston when Dyro was "kicked in the face"

Hardwell is currently touring across Canada with Dyro and Dannic when the following event as described by Hardwell and Dyro occurred on their 2nd stop in Kingston, Ontario at Stages Nightclub last night. 

Hardwell and Dyro explained the situation over Twitter:

My buddy @dyromusic and manager just got kicked out while playing his set! NEVER play this club again! @stagesnightclub Kingston, Canada

— Hardwell (@HARDWELL) January 31, 2013

.@dyromusic even got kicked in the face two times!!!! Never play this club again @stagesnightclub Kingston, Canada

— Hardwell (@HARDWELL) January 31, 2013

Me and my manager just got kicked out and I got kicked in the face twice!NEVER play this club again! @stagesnightclub Kingston, Canada

Funny thing is, i was supposed to play till 3 and i was kicked out at like 2:45. Wasn't even over time

— Dyro (@DyroMusic) January 31, 2013

I'm going to sleep now. Hope my face isnt still fucked up in a few hours. #ouch

Clearly this is an unfortunate situation and I hope Dyro recovers from his injuries. At this time I'm not sure who exactly "kicked" Dyro "in the face" but if more details surface I will update this page.

Hardwell, Dyro, and Dannic will be playing tonight in Waterloo and tomorrow in Montreal to a sold out crowd at the New City Gas. I'm sure I'm not the only Canadian EDM fan that wishes Dyro, Hardwell and his crew the best for the rest of their Canadian tour.

*Update: A comment made by "K-Towns Finest" gives a different version of the events that occurred that night. In response I have updated the post that includes quotations in the title and body of the original post. If Stages Nightclub would like to make an official statement about the events that night, they can send it to email@edmcanada.com and it will be posted.

*Update #2: Here is another perspective on that night posted on a Wordpress blog called "The Anonymous Raver".

Is it just me or is this poster the best A Tribe Called Red promo I've ever seen? Congratulations to the trio from Ottawa for making the Phase 1 lineup.

The Dillon Francis interview that you don't want to miss (video)

Hilarious interview:

Between this interview and the inthemix article on DJ Pauly D it's been a good 24 hours for entertaining EDM content.

Dave Grohl pokes fun at DJs in latest Soundgarden video

Dave Grohl directed the following music video for Soundgarden where Deadmau5 makes a surprise cameo appearance:

The DJ, who is played by the same actor in Calvin Harris' 'Bounce', and Zedd's 'Clarity' videos, is portrayed as a preposterous DJ caricature that's playing to an empty room and eventually calls the cops on Soundgarden when they unplug his laptop and take over the stage. I will spare you the blow by blow but eventually Soundgarden are 'caught' and are arrested by Deadmau5 dressed as a cop.

Is this video some kind of metaphor to suggest that EDM is now the 'man' and that DJs are trying to put down Rock and Roll? I could write a crappy English report on it if I was still back in my grade 6 English class.
