There's a big debate going on about people using mobile phones during live concerts. Is it rude? If they paid for a ticket, should they be allowed to do whatever they want?

During their show in Dallas, David Draiman of Disturbed makes his stance on the issue clear as day when he calls out an audience member that he notice was glued to her phone the entire show.

"Oh, up in the balcony, what am I gonna do with you? Especially this one. Yeah, you, the brunette. Yeah. Hi, how are you?" said Draiman in the fan-shot video. "So what is so important going on in the world that you need to be texting the entire f**king show? The whole show! You're right up front; I can see you clear as day. You've had your face in your f**king phone the whole goddamn show. Are we that boring?"

Though the woman's response wasn't audible, Draiman responds to her displeasure of being put on the spot, "Don't tell me to go f**k myself; you already did by looking in your phone instead of paying attention." Draiman continues by saying, "I'm not wrong. Am I wrong? if you were up here and I did that to you, how would you feel? Seriously! It's f**king rude. It is! If you don't wanna watch, don't watch, but don't stand there in front of the f**king stage in the front row of the balcony where everybody can see you texting the whole f**king time on your phone."

Draiman concludes his mini rant by saying, "Can I at least have your word that I will have your attention for the rest of whatever's left of the set?" The woman still seemed upset after being called out. "Now she's all pissed off. She thinks that I did something wrong to her. I love it. Welcome to the age of the internet, ladies and f**king gentlemen."
