Anyone remember "The Place" for Throwing Muses fans?

In the late 90s, the band Throwing Muses hosted a social networking site for fans called "The Place." Does anybody remember this? I'm looking for any info or archives about it. Google, Yahoo, Wayback Machine and others have failed me. There was the ability to have a profile, message people, message boards, etc. Thanks!

I tried searching with the names of a few brands of forum software that were around back then, without any luck. I didn't try every one on that list, though, and maybe you'd have ideas for other keywords to combine with them.

Best answer: Here it is via the Wayback Machine. I started by searching Usenet messages at groups.google.com, found references to beestung.net, and found a link there to ThrowingMusic.com, which seems to have hosted The Place.
