David Draiman Booed During Black Sabbath Farewell Concert Birmingham

News summary

David Draiman, frontman of Disturbed, faced boos and hostile reactions from a segment of the crowd during the 'Back To The Beginning' farewell concert for Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne in Birmingham. Draiman performed covers of Ozzy Osbourne's “Shot In The Dark” and Black Sabbath’s “Sweet Leaf” with a supergroup led by Tom Morello, but his presence was met with visible disapproval largely due to his outspoken support for Israel in the ongoing Israel-Gaza conflict. His controversial 2024 visit to Israel, including signing an artillery shell with an expletive-laden message aimed at Hamas, intensified criticism against him, as many viewed the gesture as insensitive to civilian casualties. Despite the backlash, Draiman stated he supports peace and coexistence among all people, though public opinion remains divided. The event also saw controversy over a tribute message from Marilyn Manson amid protests related to his past misconduct allegations. Draiman’s political stance continues to polarize fans and the rock community alike.
