Goo Goo Dolls Live at a block party September 1995 John Rzeznik - Guitar, Vocals Robby Takac - Bass, Vocals Mike Malinin - Drums Please leave a comment
They were a post-punk/power-pop trio. They were always vying to be a pop band. I love the Goos, but all they wanted was to be rich and famous, and it’s obvious . Their new music is unlistenable because the production is too slick and they don’t include Robbie enough in the writing process. Despite my love for it, their first album sucked. They were great from Jed - A Boy Named Goo Then they were good from Dizzy Up The Girl - Let Love In. Now they’re only good live.
So many comments about how this was peak Goo, before ballads. I appreciate all their music, and I'm able to enjoy so many more songs than the people who are stuck on pre- Dizzy Up The Girl music
Their peak was probably around Dizzy up the Girl, they had a balance between alternative rock songs and ballads. Afterwards they leaned too hard on where the money was. I personally enjoy Superstar Carwash, A Boy Named Goo and Dizzy up the girl the most of all their discography. That doesn't mean the albums after those are bad, but they lost almost all their edge.
I agree- my favourite albums are superstar car wash, a boy named goo, dizzy up the girl and gutterflower but I still like some of their new music! That being said, their older albums are definitely better in my opinion.
Transport yourself back to 1990 and hearing Hold Me Up, then Superstar Carwash in 1993… 1995 comes along and Boy comes out… Still the same, except for « Name ». That song gets massive airplay and you’re like « Yay! good for them, they’re finally getting recognition! » You finally see them in concert in a small club and the only song the audience knows the lyrics of is Name… Then the next album comes up and you’re like « What the hell?! » For those who listened to the band pre-Boy, it no longer was the Goos they loved to hear… That said, it’s great if you enjoy post-Boy. We just don’t have the same frame of reference!
Wow, I just started Kindergarten when they played right there. I was living in Amityville while this was being performed. Something For the Rest of Us in my opinion was their last album with their signature sound in 2010. Don't get me wrong; Magnetic, Boxes, Miracle Pill, and Chaos in Bloom do have some awesome songs. Either way, every album they've released I love, but Boxes is my least favorite.

When goo goo dolls were a rock band 😢
Boy Named Goo-era GGD was probably the best grunge band ever. It's really weird how they turned out
It even close. Nirvana slams goo goo dolls as a grunge band 😂

@@th3gr81I don't think that's true at all. They stumbled into fame and fortune.
As an Aussie who grew up with INXS, it was such a blast to see the Goos singing Don’t Change as their last song.
I love these shows
I wish I could've seen them live in the ABNG era they were one great live band
Same. Esp bc I was in college in Buffalo during this time. I wish I could go back in time
Love love!!

They still make good tunes but this IS better

Yeah, not a big fan. Miracle Pill's probably my least favorite though
"Are you guys psyched?" "No" LOL
minute?
Johnny's hair is so funky here, lol.
They're super tight here. Is that Mike or George on drums ? I can't even tell.
