Stephan Jenkins was a member of Puck and Natty. They performed the track "Just Wanna Be Your Friend" on the 1992 Beverly Hills 90210 soundtrack.

Honestly 3eb were mismarketed and miscoined at this alt rockish boy band / sex symbols when there was so much more to their music than what they played on the pop stations. You need to honestly give these guys a listen, and you'll find their music is about much more than just girls. Their music is about, well, the trials and tribulations of a 90s kid, pure and simple.

These guys were super influential in my life and if you ask me you'd be doing an injustice NOT to add these guys to the rock and roll hall of fame.

Another important thing to note- they never compromised on their sound. They never "sold out". Their entire discography can be taken as one cohesive whole.

Dunno about you guys, but I think they deserve it, they have a lot of songs that deserve more recognition such as the background and god of wine, you should really give them a listen and maybe youll change your mind, at least listen to their debut album, which is absolute PERFECTION and their best album.

I thought I'd commented about these guys already, but I saw them play Lolla back in 2018 on a hot afternoon at Grant Park. They played on the 'Clamshell Stage' (forget what they call it, but is the permanent one there in the corner. About 3 or 4 in afternoon. Had a huge crowd for that time period. Just about completely filled up the big meadow that makes up that portion of park.

Played all their hits to a very enthusiastic audience. I think they are a great band. Love seeing them live. They need about 2 or 3 more 'Semi-Charmed Life' level songs to have any kind of chance. This is the kind of band, IMO, that's inducted 20 years after all members are dead, due to a critical re-evaluation of their career.

Great music Great video's. Their music is so much more than just music. It set trends in the late 90's early 00's along with the Goo Goo Dolls, Lifehouse, The Frey and Matchbox these groups set the bar for Lite Rock in this Era

Funny that you mention Third Eye Blind. Back in March when vulture did the infamous interview with the two anonymous hall voters, things turned sour when they discussed Sheryl Crow. One anonymous hall voter who did not vote for Sheryl Crow tried to make the case that what she did back in the 90s was no different from Hootie and the Blowfish and Third Eye Blind. Basically what the voter was saying was that all three were doing the same thing: mixing alternative rock with adult contemporary (the triple-a music format for the NPR crowd).
