During their usual set-closing pyro display while performing “Inside the Fire,” Disturbed unintentionally set off the venue’s emergency sprinkler system, drenching water all over the stage, band, and a few front rows.
“Well, last night in Houston was a first,” frontman David Draiman tweeted the following day. “Our pyro set off the fire suppression system onstage at the end of the set for a surprise rain shower onstage lol.”
The band’s official twitter account also chimed in, tweeting, “Houston, we have a problem! Thank you for enduring the Fire and Water with us! We are Disturbed!”
The band’s guitarist Dan Donegan, took to IG for his post, also revealing that some of the band’s equipment was ruined during the downpour.
“Houston, we have a problem! Take a close look 👀. This was another first in our career! Literally burning the house down. During our encore we fired off so much pyro 🔥 that it set off the sprinkler system and rained down 💦💦 buckets 🪣 on top of us for the entire end of the show. This goes down as one of the most memorable shows for sure. Plus destroyed my in ears and 🎤 and possibly other gear 🤦🏻♂️. What a night!”
