This Band Loves Boise for Burgers, Now They're Back for a Concert

Celebrities in Boise. Celebrities in Idaho. Celebrities are obsessed with us, y'all.

We know that our area is growing--but over the last several years, it seems that the place we call home--the world's worst kept secret--is growing even more popular among the stars of Hollywood. From Kardashians and Jenners to Bad Bunny and Mark Wahlberg--the paparazzi had best set up a satellite office in the 208 sometime soon!

A year ago, nearly to the date, a very popular rock band was in Boise--not for a concert, but because they HAD to stop by their favorite burger joint...

Here's a look at how one well-known band is all about Idaho!

Did you spot REO Speedwagon hanging out in Boise last summer?

Often times when celebrities are spotted around town--they're here for business, for a getaway, or they are just passing through. What we believe makes this visit and sighting so special, is that REO Speedwagon came by Boise Fry Company intentionally.

In fact, the band says that they had experienced Boise Fry Company before and had to come back...

I just happened to discover this place on a walk through Boise last year. I returned for more last week, and brought along my REO brothers. Being in Idaho, home of Famous Potatoes, and having been raised on burgers and fries, I was powerless. I had to go back!

How cool of an endorsement is this!?

Lovers of the band are 'double double' excited because not only do we know WHEN they'll be returning to Boise--but they're making the Treasure Valley a part of their final tour.

The band will be playing at the Ford Idaho Center on Thursday, October 24th.

Will they make a stop at Boise Fry Company? Odds are--they've got to. Right?
