Title: So, if the GOOs did a 2 CD set...
Post by the orange o on Aug 15^th, 2006, 1:30pm

would it take 8 years to make it?

LOL...Sorry I know that's a b*tchy comment, but I'm already looking for a new CD from the guys...LLI just wasn't worth waiting 4 years for - IMO...And I don't think I can wait that long for something new...

The LLI songs sound great live, but the CD - um, I'm getting tired of it really fast. It's also making me want more "Robby" songs. I definitely prefer John's voice, but I prefer the "rockness" (is that a word?) of Robby's songs...

Oh, I wonder how long I'll have to wait for something new.....OK, rant is over now...

I would assume a double cd would take about as long as a single cd, it would just probably have songs that wouldn't have made the cut for a single cd.

As much as I would love a new cd immediately since LLI did absolutely nothing for me except make me sad, the last thing in the world I am doing right now is waiting for a new cd. �The Goos seem set to tour through summer 2007 and a new cd won't be out for at least a year after that, meaning we will be waiting until somewhere between 2008 and 2010 (damn). �Hopefully the long wait will be supplemented with a live cd or something else. �That's what I'm looking forward to.

Blargh... thinking about this made me sad.

This thread made me depressed. Time to head back to the O thread.

Sorry, Shannon. I will post something uplifting in the O thread just for you.

I'm good now. I just listened to Keith Urban's new song a couple times and it lifted me right up ;D At least I have his new CD to look forward to.

I loooooove Robby's songs from LLI, so yeah, I definitely was craving for more. They've said before that generally the songs that are on the album are all the songs they have; I guess they just work on it until they like it, rather than having a bunch of half-finished songs as b-sides . . . but I doubt that's a steadfast rule, so who knows? Maybe the upcoming DVD will have a new track as a single too.

Ooooohhhh....I've never heard the acoustic "We'll Be Here". That's one of my favorites off the album too. I bet it's a goodie!

Ooooo it is! Really different acoustic, worth investing in.

Oh, I just thought of a good reason for the Goos to release a double disc album. A double disc counts as 2 units sold. You go platinum by only selling 500,000 albums. I think that's why there's been a resurgence of double discs recently while the industry is sucking, but artists are still expected to sell huge amounts of records.

I've never seen the acoustic "We'll Be Here" either. I thought I was going crazy. Glad it's not just me. I'm jealous of those of you who have it. I just bet it's amazing.

Sorry, I didn't mean to depress you guys :-/

I created this post after coming in from a run. My iPod is loaded with GOO for running and when the LLI songs came on, I had to skip most of them - just no good for running. And the idea of deleting the songs from my iPod Playlist so I wouldn't have to listen to them when I run, kind of put me in a funk. :-[

LLI left me throully satisfied, and cannot wait for the tour. I think its unfair to expect more so soon. I don't think the guys would appreciate fans being disappointed.
