You thought Forest Whitaker being at a Bring Me The Horizon show was random? How about New Kid on the Block, actor, restaurant proprietor, husband of Jenny McCarthy, Donnie Wahlberg showing up to a Periphery show?
That's exactly what happened at last night's (April 9, 2017) Periphery gig at the House Of Blues in Chicago, IL. Wahlberg tweeted from what looks the VIP section thanking the band for their hospitality:
#Thankful to @MarkPeriphery, @MattPeriphery, @spencersotelo & @PeripheryBand for the hospitality! @HOBChicago show was amazing!

So nice meeting you, @DonnieWahlberg!

I spoke to guitarist Mark Holcomb who noted that Donnie's "people" contacted the band. Mark had a chance to meet Donnie and his son, Elijah, who is an enormous fan of Periphery. Mark notes that Donnie was a total class act, and said that his son plays Periphery in the car constantly and that he dug Juggernaut. Mark, Donnie and Elijah all posed for a photo together, which you can see above.
Periphery is on tour now with The Contortionist. Get dates here.
