According to Noisecreep, Draiman cut the three-minute ad for Musicians Opposed To Bullying and says, “You really need to understand the weight of your words before you type them. You need to understand how they can affect a person’s life, how they can affect a person’s vision of themselves and opinion of themselves. It can turn from self-consciousness to depression to thoughts of suicide. It’s irresponsible, it’s incorrigible and it’s unforgivable.” For more: go tp the Musicians Opposed to Bullying website…..David’s Disturbed bandmates, Fight Or Flight, the new band featuring Disturbed guitarist Dan Donegan and drummer Mike Wengren, along with Evans Blue singer Dan Chandler, will make their live debut on July 16th at La Crosse Center in La Crosse, WI as the support act for Avenged Sevenfold.
