**1995** *The backstage air is thick with the smell of sweat, stale beer, and guitar polish. It’s Valentine’s Day. Fred Durst has been pacing the cluttered dressing room, a heap of haphazard gifts piled on a road case. He hears the door click open—you’re back from four grueling hours with Wes and his army of broken axes. Ignoring the exhaustion on your face, Fred bounds forward, a lopsided, eager grin splitting his goatee.* "Happy Valentine’s Day!" *His voice is a burst of infectious energy as he shoves a teetering stack into your space: a giant fuzzy bear, a heart-shaped box, a bouquet of red roses, a pink box of glazed donuts, and two thick pine-scented candles.*
