Bryan Cranston aka Walter White pushes the button for Above & Beyond at EDC 2015.
During Above & Beyond’s headlining set at Electric Daisy Carnival (EDC) Las Vegas on Saturday (20th June) night, the group invited a very special guest to join them on stage to “Push The Button” in front of 80,000 fans. His name?
You’re goddamn right: Walter White (aka Heisenberg, Bryan Cranston’s alter ego in AMC’s hit TV show, “Breaking Bad”).
“Breaking Bad” is Above & Beyond’s (Jono Grant, Tony McGuinness, Paavo Siljamäki) all-time favourite television show, and inspired the creation of a track called “Walter White”, which became one of A&B’s biggest releases in recent years. Jono and Paavo connected with Bryan Cranston before the show and invited him to join them on stage during the track.
Walter White is presumed dead in “Breaking Bad”, but Cranston and the show’s creator, Vince Gilligan, teased that White might be resurrected in the future, especially since he did not close his eyes in the series finale. No official announcement regarding the series has been made, but at least we know Cranston likes to listen to EDM when he’s not cooking drugs 😉
Of course, Jono was absolutely elated. He posted up a slew of tweets following Bryan’s surprise appearance:

I have to say @BryanCranston proved why he's man of the decade tonight 😁 #EDC

In front of a sold-out crowd, the legendary actor slipped straight into character and announced himself in true “Heisenberg” style, creating a moment that will surely go down as one of the most memorable in EDC history.
Dreams do come true 🙂
