Swedish House Mafia star Steve Angello launched a furious online tirade against Los Angeles party police this week, after cops ordered him to stop playing halfway through his set at Avalon over fears the Hollywood superclub was over-crowded.

“I had an unbelievable time . . . But extremely bad technical difficulties and cops breathing down my neck . . . Sorry Los Angeles,” he Tweeted hours after the event.

“If the cops wouldn't have shut us down we would have an amazing night ... Officially fuck the police ... Ohh sorry fire marshal. Fuck,” he added. Tweeting about the gig the next day, he back-tracked a little declaring ‘such an amazing night yesterday despite the close down’ and (in a message to Roger Sanchez)  added ‘it was (an) amazing show. But hard work! They shut me down 5.15 . Over capacity so its a good thing.. It was rammed.”

The closure came just days before LA’s County Board of Supervisors issued a ten point ‘safety guideline’ plan for all future raves in the city which will include a 2am curfew for all music festivals.

Additional requirements promoters will be expected to introduce include ‘cool-off’ breaks during the shows, and regular public service announcements warning about the dangers of ecstasy and other drugs, the Board revealed.
