Saw 30 Seconds to Mars, Taproot and Chevelle at House of Blues Myrtle Beach. We were there for Chevelle but Taproot stole the show. Lead singer jumped into the crowd from a second story balcony
In my head cannon, the space between grunge and rap metal/butt rock was dominated by, for lack of a better term, "adult rock." Goo Goo Dolls, Collective Soul, Lenny Kravitz, Gin Blossoms, Live, Barenaked Ladies, Sugar Ray, etc.
