Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. The mayor of Vorst, Belgium, has officially banned an upcoming Disturbed concert, citing public safety concerns stemming from frontman David Draiman’s outspoken support for the Israeli army – namely that one picture where he's signing missiles that'll kill people shortly thereafter.

Disturbed was scheduled to play Vorst Nationaal on Wednesday, October 15, but the plug has now been pulled following a police order issued by Mayor Charles Spapens (PS) according to De Standaard.

Look, I'm not going to support his recent actions, but imo that's one of the best covers ever done. I legit prefer it to the original.

It's almost as bad as Limp Bizkit's Behind Blue Eyes.
