^ First time I saw them, they looked pissed, like they had a horrible fight before the show. It's really unnerving having Eric Brock glare at you with intense hatred for over an hour.
Second time I saw them, they were in a pleasant mood and did better, but there is some weird lack of energy they have on stage. They just can't seem to get pumpin'. The albums rock harder for some reason.
I've heard some live MM where they were obviously drunk. Mix this with the "lack of energy" thing, and my oh my it's shitty rock. (I even have a version of "Neverending Math" where, after a verse, Eric says, "Wow. That was shitty," acknowledging the truth and sounding a little surprised at it, maybe even apologetic).
