Vincent, Beck, and Dave Grohl's daughter: Watc Puddle of Mudd's cover of Nirvana's 'About A Girl' has shot to online infamy, after fans savaged the performance of frontman Wes Scantlin. Let’s hope they can deliver going forward.Puddle of Mudd announce first album in 10 years, unveil Uh Oh single: Stream Surviving Nirvana members reunite alongside St. The fans who witnessed Puddle Of Mudd rockin’ the downs Friday night know what this band is capable of.

A rejuvenated Scantlin writing new material is exactly what Puddle Of Mudd fans have been waiting for. It hard to believe the band’s last album was a covers project released in 2011.

Songs like “Said”, “Daddy”, “Living On Borrowed Time” and the Stones cover of “Gimme Shelter” showed the flexibility of the band as well as diversity. It was one of those rare shows where you were expecting the band to end with their big song “Blurry” any moment, the only problem was the band kept digging deeper into their catalog. A rare play of the stellar track “We Don’t Have To Look Back Now” simply was one of those moments you just don’t see in many concerts these days. Highlights included “She Hates Me” which was intertwined with a verse of “Summer Nights” from the musical Grease. From there the band mixed things up by playing songs from all their studio albums. Early on the band mixed in hits like “Stoned” and rare plays of songs like the AC/DC cover of “TNT”. The band entered the stage with the Wizard of Oz theme playing until they started off with “Control” which then dipped into Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs” for a verse. You could not ask for much better weather as noted by Scantlin earlier during the proceedings. This lineup has been together since 2014 and they sounded amazing. The current version of Scantlin’s Puddle Of Mudd includes guitarist Matt Fuller, bassist Michael John Adams as well as drummer Dave Moreno. Scantlin appeared to be pulling songs out of thin air during the bands near two-hour set. Scantlin has now been sober for almost a year and it shows on stage. As evidenced by Puddle of Mudd’s performance at the Batavia Downs Friday night, this was exactly what the fans wanted to see. When Wes Scantlin is on top of his game there are few better front-men from his era.
