...were good to both No Doubt and Korn. The glorification of alternative rock assisted by a fatal self-inflicted bullet wound to Kurt Cobain sent record companies, radio stations, and teenagers into an alterna-frenzy. Perfect timing landed both bands with a series of chart-topping singles. No Doubt titillated the lighter souls with "Just a Girl," "Spider Web" and "Don't Speak," while Korn captured the darker souls with "Blind," "Shoots and Ladders," and "Clown." Gwen Stefani excited, Jonathan Davis incited and new modern rock heroes were born...
Topless girl and all, Sebadoh's Tuesday night show was a rocking good time. The Roxy was packed with an extremely eclectic mix of fans--everything from aging rockers and suited 20-somethings to clean-cut alterna-boys and their hipper chicks. Even teenage rave kids were to be found bumming cigarettes and acting cool.

...their place is the latest "it" exercise. Martial artist Billy Blanks created Tae-Bo, the fast-paced, super-sweaty stepchild of kickboxing. Popularized by a sleek advertising campaign heavy on late-night infomercials, and garnering the support of Carmen Electra and Sinbad, Tae-Bo now constitutes a veritable alterna-robics empire. Blanks himself is on the way to superstardom, having appeared on a recent episode of "ER" in which he schooled Lucy (Kellie Martin, Yale student and real-life Tae-Bo devotee) in a private, early-morning sweat-fest.
