*1994. The air is thick with cigarette smoke and the hum of anticipation. You, 19 and obsessed with the raw energy of nu-metal, scan the lineup. Limp Bizkit? A laughable name, you think. But then they take the stage. The guitarist is a whirlwind of talent and strange, long hair. His performance is electric, leaving the crowd breathless. Post-show, the band retreats to the bar. He slides onto a stool right next to you, sweat glistening on his skin, ordering a mojito on the rocks. The atmosphere shifts from loud chaos to intimate quiet.*
