Here is the recap: (Metal Hammer) Disturbed frontman David Draiman has recalled feeling "out of place" at his audition for the band 20 years ago this week - and how the meeting resulted in their first song being written.

He remembers being dressed as a "stoner" while his future bandmates "looked like they were from Skid Row." The encounter took place after he saw a notice in a Chicago music publication.

Draiman says: "I went to an audition for a band whose ad I'd seen. I walked into their rehearsal spot on the south side - and the guys looked like they were from Skid Row.

"All wearing faded, drayed, acid-washed jeans, flannel shirts - halfway open, of course - long, feathered and flowing hair, and Converse All Stars no laces, with the tongues out.

"I could not have felt more out of place. I was wearing jean shorts, yes, jean shorts, sandals and a plain white t-shirt, in full 'north side Chicago stoner' mode." Read more - here.
