Ready For Will Ferrell To Join Swedish House Mafia Onstage?

Ready For Will Ferrell To Join Swedish House Mafia Onstage? He Shall Team Up This Autumn For A Benefit Concert Via Chicago.

"Who could have predicted this collaboration? In a video posted to Swedish House Mafia’s socials, Will Ferrell announced he’ll be performing with the EDM trio in Chicago this fall. The concert, which is a benefit for the charity Cancer for College, will take place at the Wintrust Arena on Oct. 26. Swedish House Mafia, which teased the show on social media with the banner “major announcement,” have not yet listed ticketing details for the concert on their website.

The short clip begins with the actor sitting in a Swedish House Mafia shirt and sunglasses at a computer with a musical keyboard bopping to some beats before he turns around. “Oh, hello, I didn’t see you there,” he says. “I have a major announcement to make … I’ll be playing with my band, Swedish House Mafia. Boys — Steve, Seb, Ax — get in here.” And in walk the Swedes. “Be there,” Ferrell says forcefully. “Don’t piss these guys off.”

Cancer for College offers college scholarships to cancer survivors. Ferrell has long championed the organization, which his friend and three-time cancer survivor Craig Pollard, founded three decades ago.

In 2014, Ferrell joined forces with his celebrity doppelgänger, Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith, for a Cancer for College benefit where they performed the Rolling Stones’ “Honky Tonk Women” together. He’s also raised money for the organization by auctioning baseball uniforms, organizing an all-star benefit, and playing cowbell with his son, Magnus, among other events.

Earlier this month, Swedish House Mafia released a new single, “Lioness,” which features Niki and the Dove. In addition to the Chicago concert with Ferrell, the trio has several tour dates booked throughout the summer — both as Swedish House Mafia and individually — all over the world." - Yahoo.com
