Disturbed‘s David Draiman recently shared his thoughts on the arrest of Lamb Of God‘s Randy Blythe in a roundabout way. Draiman was recently asked by a Twitter user how he felt about Blythe “slaughtering” a fan. On that, Draiman replied:
“HE DIDNT “SLAUGHTER” ANYONE. THE KID JUMPED ON STAGE AND STARTED A BRAWL, AND RANDY DEFENDED HIMSELF, THAT HIS LIFE WAS LOST–IN THE PROCESS IS TRULY UNFORTUNATE, BUT, RANDY IS MY FRIEND AND HES NO MURDERER I FEEL FOR THE CHILD AND FOR THE FAMILY AND FOR RANDY, BUT YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT EVER SINCE DIMEBAG DARRYL WAS–ASSAULTED, SHOT, AND MURDERED ON STAGE BY A “FAN”, ALL OF US HAVE BEEN VERY DEFENSIVE/CAUTIOUS OF ANYONE JUMPING UP ON STAGE IM NOT SAYING THAT IT’S OK, OR JUSTIFIED, OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. ONLY THAT IT’S AN UNFORTUNATE/TRAGIC SET OF CIRCUMSTANCES–AND THAT I KNOW RANDY’S INTENTION WAS NOT TO KILL THE KID. THAT’S MY OPINION. I’VE HEARD YOURS. THAT IS ALL.”
