Disturbed's San Francisco concert scrapped as NBA playoffs take over Chase Center
Disturbed's upcoming concert at San Francisco's Chase Center has been canceled due to the NBA playoffs. The nu-metal band was set to celebrate the 25th anniversary of its multi-platinum debut album 'The Sickness' on Saturday, May 10, with Daughtry and Nothing More opening. But the Golden State Warriors' playoff series against the Minnesota Timberwolves has forced a change to the venue's schedule, leading to the cancellation. Fans who purchased tickets through Ticketmaster will receive automatic refunds, while those who bought tickets from third-party resellers such as StubHub and SeatGeek are advised to contact their point of purchase directly for a refund. This is not the first time Disturbed has faced a conflict with the NBA during this tour. In March, during a concert at the United Center in Chicago, the band's heavy use of pyrotechnics allegedly caused damage to six Chicago Bulls championship banners. The venue confirmed that the flames singed the banners, which were taken down for repairs and would not be displayed for the remainder of the season. SAN FRANCISCO UPDATE: Due to an unforeseen schedule conflict with the Golden State Warriors and the NBA playoffs, the Disturbed show scheduled for May 10 at Chase Center in San Francisco has been cancelled. Details here: — Disturbed (@Disturbed) May 5, 2025 Disturbed, however, denied responsibility for the damage, which occurred during its performance of 'Inside the Fire.' In addition to the pyrotechnic mishap, Disturbed frontman David Draiman has been making headlines for his outspoken views on political issues. In April, he called out Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day for altering the lyrics of the band's 2004 hit 'Jesus of Suburbia' during a performance at Coachella. Armstrong had changed the line 'runnin' away from pain when you've been victimized' to 'runnin' away from pain like the kids from Palestine.' 'You know I respect you, brother,' Draiman wrote in an open letter posted on social media on April 14. 'I'd love to have the opportunity for you to hear the Israeli/Jewish side of this horrific war. I'm available to discuss whenever you are. No judgment, nothing preconceived. Let me know.'
