Disturbed's Netherlands Show Cancelled Over IDF Photo
The cancellation of Disturbed's show at the Vorst Nationaal on October 15 was sparked by a photo of vocalist David Draiman signing an artillery shell meant for the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) to launch into Gaza.
We in Disturbed are all about unity.
The image led to backlash, particularly after a heated online exchange between Draiman and Irish pro-Palestinian rap collective Kneecap. Draiman was also booed during a surprise appearance at Black Sabbath's farewell show in Birmingham.
- Disturbed's show at the Vorst Nationaal was cancelled earlier this month.
