Looking back, that was a RIDICULOUS lineup. Smashing Pumpkins, Foo Fighters, Our Lady Peace, A Perfect Circle, I Mother Earth, Eve 6, Sum 41, Treble Charger, and Finger Eleven. Not all awesome I realize, but almost all are still around in some capacity which you can't say for too many bands from 14 years ago.
Haha, I've never heard anybody say the Rainbow Butt Monkeys added anything special to a lineup.

Treble Charger is awful as well. Only achieved a modicum of popularity because of Canadian content rules.

Sum 41 puts on a good show and I've seen Tool a few times, but never A Perfect Circle. I Mother Earth had a couple of good songs. Our Lady Peace was generally pretty bad, but had a few songs that would be fun live.

I saw Smashing Pumpkins at the dome in '95 or '96 during the Zero tour. It was a good enough show as far as Saddledome shows go, which isn't saying a lot. Man I have a hard time enjoying arena shows.
