DISTURBED frontman David Draiman is suing his former landlord, alleging misrepresentation of a rental property’s condition. Filed on March 11, 2025, the lawsuit, reported by Law360.com, claims the Coral Gables home, which Draiman rented for $18,500 per month, suffered from undisclosed leaks and mold.
Draiman claims that despite promises from the landlord to rectify the discovered issues, the repairs were not completed promptly, forcing him to vacate the property. He is now seeking the return of his $37,000 security deposit and alleging fraudulent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and negligence.
Draiman‘s legal representative said in the complaint that the alleged presence of mold in the home, “impacts [Draiman‘s] ability to sing as he is lead singer of a prominent rock band with tour dates and recording time and fully advised defendant of the same.” “The uninhabitability and mold concerns, among others, resulted in impacts to plaintiff’s singing career, recording and studio time with medical concerns.”
DISTURBED launched the U.S. leg of “The Sickness 25th Anniversary Tour” on February 25 at the Ford Idaho Center Arena in Nampa, Idaho. This tour commemorates 25 years of the band’s groundbreaking debut album, which propelled them into the spotlight and remains one of the most significant and influential heavy metal records of all time.
Each night features two sets of music, opening with DISTURBED playing the five times platinum The Sickness in full, followed by a full set of greatest hits. The first half of the tour will feature support from special guests THREE DAYS GRACE, featuring the return of original singer Adam Gontier, and opener SEVENDUST, and the second half will feature special guests DAUGHTRY with opener NOTHING MORE.
