The whole planet is dealing with a heatwave and most people suffer from high temperatures. Disturbed had to cancel their live show in Phoenix, US, due to “excessive heat” that caused “the band’s equipment is not working properly”.
The band’s concert on Saturday (July 22, 2023) at the Talking Stick Resort Amphitheatre in Phoenix as part of the band’s “Take Back Your Life” tour didn’t finally take place.
Shortly before 7 p.m. on Saturday, Disturbed released the following statement via social media: “PHOENIX UPDATE: Tonight’s Disturbed show will be postponed. Due to the excessive heat, the band’s equipment is not working properly. Please hold on to your tickets, and stay tuned for a rescheduled date”. When one fan complained on Twitter that Disturbed waited until so late in the day to cancel the concert, the band’s lead singer David Draiman replied: “We were still trying to make everything work. None of our equipment would power up. I’m devastated”.
Phoenix’s high temperature for Saturday reached approximately 48 degrees Celsius.
