Pop star Post Malone seemingly surprised the California hardcore act DRAIN when he arrived at their May 29 show in Salt Lake City wearing a bootleg T-shirt of the band.
Post Malone, or Posty, who first gained fame in hip-hop but has since dabbled in rock, country and beyond, is a known fan of aggressive music. He continually reaffirms his love for metal and punk by hanging with its creators and commending its late heroes. Post Malone cut his teeth in a metalcore band.

“Posty at the SLC show in the drain bootleg,” DRAIN said alongside the image of the music celebrity standing arm-in-arm with the band.
DRAIN vocalist Sammy Ciaramitaro said, “Post Malone at the drain show in SLC — in the dopest drain boot.”
The DRAIN bootleg Post Malone wore to the show was created by the singer’s photographer Adam DeGross, per the band. It reads, This Is Not a DRAIN T-Shirt.
