When you’re Eric Prydz, and you’re supposed to be playing Tomorrowland in 20 minutes, the entire state of Belgium is going to do its damnedest to help get you there.
Due to his well known dislike for air transportation, Eric Prydz was on his way to Boom via train, but an unforeseen accident halted the railways for over two hours, causing a massive delay and forcing Afrojack to step in for an impromptu gap-filler while Prydz was escorted by police to Tomorrowland.
Due to some big accident, the French trains from south are all standing still.. been locked in here for over 2h. Starting to get stressed.. pic.twitter.com/ekc6WetJok

Omg this is gonna be so tight. Getting police escort from the train direct to the Mainstage. Looks like I might be a wee bit late.

Perhaps the biggest disappointment is that Prydz’ set was cut short to keep the rest oft he schedule in tact, and judging by his visual frustration in the first few minutes of the performance, fans aren’t the only ones upset. However, he’ll be taking Drumcode by storm again later this evening as Cirez D for anyone who might need more of the Swede.
