Stephan Jenkins' outspoken behavior after signing the deal earned him the title of "the biggest mouth in music" by many critics. Afterwards, the band found themselves in a bidding war among record labels, in which they settled on Elektra because they believed it offered the most artistic freedom. The band was paid double what they were promised for the gig. As it turned out, however, they were invited out for an encore, even after Oasis had already played, bringing Liam Gallagher to tears and sparking the friendly rivalry that would form between the two bands. In 1996, the band landed an opening gig for Oasis, prior to which performance, so the legend goes, Third Eye Blind was warned that the crowd might throw food at them. Third Eye Blind recorded their first demo in 1993.
For a time the band also featured ex-Smash Mouth drummer Michael Urbano and early Primus drummer Tim ''Curveball'' Wright. Leo Kremer has been filling in for Salazar during concerts, but it is not yet known if he will become a full-time member.
More recently, bassist Arion Salazar has not been playing with the band, and his future as part of the quartet is unclear. Third Eye Blind's current line-up is Stephan Jenkins (vocals, electric guitar), Abe Millett (bass guitar), Brad Hargreaves (drums), and Kryz Reid (electric guitar). The band's original line-up changed several times before the release of the group's debut album, and again shortly after the release of the band's second album Blue - at which point the band's main guitarist Kevin Cadogan was released from the band under circumstances that still elicit controversy among fans. The original members were Stephan Jenkins (singer, songwriter, electric guitar), Kevin Cadogan (guitar), Adrian Burley (drums), and Jason Slater (bass guitar). Third Eye Blind is a rock band formed in the mid 1990s in San Francisco, California.
