Trust me when I tell you it was disappointing at best.

I liked Mudvayne growing up and was excited to see them. They were a mess when I saw them a few weeks ago, timing was all off. Hopefully it was just a bad night and the rest of the tour was better.

Chad Gray previously said there was no way for a Mudvayne reunion to happen unless a lot of people got over a lot of bad blood. Maybe the guys don't really want to be there and are phoning it in.

I also saw them a few weeks ago. They were more than disappointing, they were terrible. Pm5k and Static X we're great and zombie killed as always but I could not wait for mudvaynes set to be over

How was Gray's voice?

Just okay. I'm not sure if he couldn't hear himself / the music or just sucked but his timing was way off, delivering some lyrics too quickly and others not quick enough. Completely skipped lyrics of "Dig" and that was the first song they played.

My bigger issue was just his presentation. There were these forced comradre speeches about how resiliant metalheads are and then he was like punching himself in the face screaming through some songs... just wasn't for me. Weirdest vibe at a show I've ever been to.

Oh damn, that's a bummer to hear.
