Legendary act Eric Prydz has undoubtedly been one of the most respectable acts within the electronic music scene. Known for his kind persona, the Swedish veteran has always stayed true to his beloved fans and has maintained a wonderful relationship with his equally passionate fanbase.
In a recent Reddit post which was posted by user and a big fan of Eric himself, YardleyYeti wrote about how he has been diagnosed with cancer and isn’t too hopeful about catching his idol live at EPIC 5.0. Instead, he put forth his wish to have an opportunity to catch him live at an earlier date, if possible.
“I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in January and have been lucky enough to make it this far.
Just posting here to see if anyone has any contacts with Eric that could make a US east coast date a possibility. I know how exclusive he is and he is by far (like Im sure for most of you) my favorite producer in the world. I have tickets to EPIC 5.0 (never been to one before!) but am not positive I’ll make it that far and would love to just see him one more time.”
Only a day later with some serious help from the residents of Eric Prydz’s sub-reddit, the information was forwarded to the producer’s team who reverted back offering the fan with an opportunity to fly him down for Eric’s show in LA on January 1st. Moreover, they also have decided to host an exclusive LA show for the fan whose details are yet to be disclosed.
A highly respectable move by Eric Prydz and his team, check out YardleyYeti’s Reddit post below:
“I don’t honestly know how to put the following into words. It’s unbelievable.
So I got an email today from Eric’s manager asking for my number and got a call today. As you all know Eric isn’t much of a flyer so it would be hard for him to get him onto the east coast soon. So they offered me to see him in LA January 1st! Already crazy.
Not even 30 minutes later he calls back and tells me “So I talked to Eric and the rest of the team and we want to throw you your own personal LA show. ALL tickets sold will go to the charity of your choosing.” Theyre flying me out. Getting me a hotel room. And it looks like we’re going to have another LA show before Christmas that the team will be posting about shortly. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH. THE LOVE FELT TODAY WAS OUTSTANDING. THEY ARE THE BEST IN THE WORLD.”
