MUDVAYNE Vocalist Comments On His Fall Off Stage: "It Was F*ckin' Brutal"

Mudvayne vocalist Chad Grey unfortunately fell off the stage during the band's performance in Tampa, FL on July 26. Of course the running narrative across the media was that Grey fell during Mudvayne's "Not Falling," and it seemed like Grey was alright given he got right back up and continued the show. Now in an Instagram video, Grey shared that the fall was actually "fuckin' brutal." He also confirms he's alright and that he didn't permanently injure himself in anyway, which is the best news.

"So I basically walked to the downstage – the edge of the stage – and I step across and I put my foot on the top of the barricade. There's about five feet underneath me from where my feet are at to the ground, so [my head and all are] even higher. So yeah, it's probably four or five feet.

"So what happened was, I stepped out, the crowd surged forward and pushed my foot off backward so my foot went straight fuckin' down. My left foot was still on the stage, I hadn't stepped across yet, and my whole fuckin' body went [claps hands] wham, right on top of the barricade. Right [into my ribs], right across my sternum. I thought I was gonna piss my pants it hurt so fuckin' bad. We were ironically in the course of 'Not Falling,' which is amazing."
