I think those of us who are older were just looking for some reassurance that there are people in their thirties who subscribe to this list. I admit, it's nice to know that while I'm going nuts over this band there are other people out there my age experiencing the same thing. I have to thank the younger ones...because of the questions I'm finding out a lot more than I knew. So, I think older and younger can benefit from each other.

For reasons beyond my control, eBay has romoved my tye-dye t-shirt from the auction block (don't ask why, I don't want to talk about it... LOL!) In any case, my highest bid was $39.99 I believe. It is a super cool shirt with pics mostly of John, and it has the other bands pics on it too. I bought it in Camden, NJ. Anyway, I will take the best offer for it if anyone wants it. If you need to see the pic again, email me and I will send it to you privately! Thanks Goo-Heads!

Even though I wasn't thrilled to come home to find 90+ emails, it was actually nice to see how many people who never post to the list itself are actually out there (due to the reply button problem.) I was especially happy to see that there are a lot more older fans than I thought. I'm 25 and at one point was ready to get off the list because I felt the majority of people were 17 and under. I must say though, that reading some of the younger fans posts is amusing because it's alot fun to see them so excited. We get to hear about all the creative projects they do for the guys, not to mention the ways they have to get the money for tickets or how to get to the concerts. I remember doing those things myself and sometimes it's fun to look back. It doesn't matter how old or young you are, just that you are a true Goo fan.

Message-ID: Hello! Like you and your child, my son and I are Goo heads as well, lol! I've seen and met the band twice this year, once with my son in the spring, who was at that time, four and a half, and we had a blast with the guys. I've attached our Goo encounters/reviews for the shows to this message, so you can read about our very special moments. I wrote the reviews for FABFAY, who owns the GGDs official website, so they are addressed to her, and on her site she has 5 pages of my son's pics with the guys. :o) Be warned, though. Although he never spoke an inappropriate word to my son when they were one on one, once on stage, John Rzeznik tends to have a potty mouth. :o( My husband and I were prepared for this, and when the time came for the band's introductions to be made and John spent a moment interacting with the crowd, my husband just took our son out into the lobby for something to drink, then came back when the band started playing again. I do NOT recommend that you take your child into the mosh pit area on the floor if there are no chairs. This is VERY dangerous, even to an adult. If there ARE chairs, and the venue is relatively small, then you'll probably be okay, since we were on the floor, 6 rows back from the stage at Morehead, Ky. Also, I would recommend that you take some child sized ear plugs for safety's sake. And be prepared to take your daughter out of the show in case the loudness and heart pounding vibrations frighten her. Other than that, just enjoy yourself :o) Please let me know what you think about our Goo encounters. My son has become sort of a celebrity with Fay and with the mailing lists, lol, since he's the youngest ever to have such a GOOey outlook on life. Enjoy the reviews and keep in touch :o) Agoostic#3 (Lisa) *Everybody stop yelling!.....You all see that little fellow right there? In the middle of the crowd?

I just got back from Morehead, and I had the best time of my life! All my dreams for my son and myself came true. It was an absolutely perfect night in every way! (If I can calm down enough to tell you about it..... :o) Ok, here goes..... We arrived at 5:30pm (the show wasnt scheduled to start til 8) We parked in the very same lot as the tour buses, and the security guards said that we were the first to arrive. They were standing by the open doors, and we could hear the sound check going on from inside, which was cool. The guards saw my son, who was wearing his black "John Rzeznik" shirt, as he calls it, and black pants, and his beaded necklaces that I got him. He also had his little electric guitar strapped on, and refused to take it off, lol The guards talked to us and told us that the main gate, which was around the other side of the building, wouldnt open til 7pm, so we decided, since they were so amused by our son, to stay there and talk to them and listen to the sound check. At one point, Jared asked one of the guards if he was the "Goo Police" lol! After about 5 minutes or so, Nathan came out of the building and went into the tour bus. I wanted to meet him but hadnt recognized him in time to call him over, so we watched for him to come back out. While we were watching for Nathan, here came Robby! I got the gift out that we brought for him, held it up to get his attention, and called him over. As soon as he saw Jared, he was down on his knees (and barefooted, as ever! lol) and was talking to my son. :o) He commented on how Jared was wearing clothes and necklaces like Johns, and asked if he could look at his guitar. Of course, Jared didnt want to hand his guitar over, so Robby signed it while it was hanging around his neck, lol! I also had him sign my Dizzy cd liner. (I was busy taking pictures of him knelt down with Jared, and completely forgot to have someone take one with me in it with him! :o( ) He talked to Jared for a few minutes, and assured us the rest of the guys would be out before the show, and then I gave him the gift we brought. He opened it right there, and just started laughing! (We got him UK Wildcat socks to remind him of his visit to Kentucky) I told him that I'd talked to you, Fay, a couple of times, and that I had promised to give you a review, and he said to please tell you hello from him, and commented that you were just GREAT! I also told him that I know Mary from Australia (she'll know who she is...) and he immediately knew who I was talking about, said her last name out loud and grinned. He talked to Jared about music a few moments longer, kept telling Jared how cool he thought he was, which made my son just grin like a little monkey! He thanked us several times, shook Jared's, mine and my husband's hands, and then went on out to the bus. :o) A few moments later, out came Nathan again. Jared stepped forward, after I told him who Nathan was, and asked him to sign his guitar for him. Nathan obliged, and knelt down to do the deed. He also commented that he has a little girl and that she has a guitar identical to Jared's, and he thought that it was pretty cool. I have pictures of all this too :o) He didnt stay with us too long, but we saw him several times, cause he must have made 4 or 5 trips to and from the bus. Well, Robby must have gone back inside and told Mike and John, cause Mike came out a short while later, and when I called him over and told him I had a gift for him, when he saw Jared, he said, "Hey, you're that little guy that everyone is talking about inside" :o) He seemed a little shy, almost kind of embarrassed by our getting him a gift, but he opened it right there, and when he saw that it was a blue Kentucky t-shirt, he pulled it out of the box and grinned. He thanked us, signed Jared's guitar, commented on Jared's "John Clothes" and laughed. He told us he hoped we would have a good time at the show. One thing that was funny, was that he had this white bag slung over his arm. Well, Jared, being the little kid he is, he asked Mike if there was a surprise in the bag for him! (how presumptuous! lol) Mike laughed and said it was his laundry, that they have to do their own laundry just like everyone else. :o) He thanked us again, took a few pics with Jared, and then went back inside. Well, up to this point, we had been the only folks there by the guards. Now, however, being that it was about 5 minutes til the main gate opened, people (mostly girls) were starting to gather around. When John came out, there were about 10 other people around, and all the girls started for him. Well, of a sudden, he ran up, took this ladies camera away from her and started snapping pictures of her with her own camera! lol And then, he chased the ladies daughter around and around (the girl was about 13) laughing the whole time! It was funny! Then he saw Jared and stopped. It was a really cool moment, cause he just stood there and took him in. He said "Oh my God! You have my clothes on!" lol (I was too focused on this exchange to even think about pictures, so luckily my hubby was snapping away!) John walked over to Jared, knelt down and asked him where he got the cool necklaces he was wearing. Jared told him, "My Mama got them for me, and I have 2!" John laughed and said that he had about 10 just like it at home. I told John that he is Jared's hero, and he grinned really big and started asking if anyone had something he could sign Jared's guitar with. I handed him my pen, (which I never got back, lol) and he signed it while all these other people were standing around getting impatient. (it's terrible of me to say this, but I totally did NOT care about their impatience! I had been waiting for this moment for months, and my son was finally standing in front of his hero, and all his little dreams were coming true, and the others were the last thing on my mind!) He was still talking to Jared when a lady asked him if he'd kiss her daughter (it was her birthday) and sign their shirts. As soon as he did this, he turned right back to Jared, and started talking to him again about what his favorite music was (and of course, Jared said GOO!) He also looked at Jared's guitar and noticed all the pick scratches on it, he said, "Boy, you must play it alot to have that many scratches, cause mine looks like that too!" We gave him his gift (an Elvis Costello double cd set) which he opened right there, and when he saw what it was, he asked Jared if he liked Elvis Costello too. Jared said, "No. I just like GOO!" and John laughed. I gave him a letter I'd had the foresight to write, knowing we'd have little or no time to spend with him, telling him about how GOOey my son really is, then I handed John the video tape we'd made of Jared doing his version of the Hard Rock Live performance. I told him what was on it, and he really laughed and asked Jared which songs he played on it. He seemed impressed when I told him that Jared plays the entire 5 song set, and he promised to watch it when he went out to the bus (which is where he was headed when he came out of the building) He thanked us for the cd, shook Jared's hand again, and then turned to sign some things for the others. As soon as this was over, Jared asked John if he could play on stage with him. John looked wowed and asked, "You want to play on the stage with me? Would you really do that?" Jared grinned really big and told him, "Yeah! I wanna rock with the Goos!" Then John grinned, laughed and said, "Well, I'll have to ask my tour manager, cause he's kinda my boss these days" lol A moment later, he thanked us again, signed my Dizzy cd liner, let us take some more pics of him and Jared, and then headed off to the tour bus. His last words to us right before he stepped on the bus were, "I'm gonna go watch this right now!" Well, I guess he did, cause we got inside and got the New Radicals out of the way (sorry, but I dont care for them. I was there to see GOO!) and after they opened with Dizzy, while the crowd was still cheering, the lights came into the audience, and John saw my son sitting on my husband's shoulders, holding his little guitar way up in the air, cheering. John pointed right at him, and said: "Everybody stop! See that little guy right there in the middle of the crowd with his guitar?" and everyone turned and looked at us, Then John said, "That little guy's trying to take my job!" then laughs, "Well, you can have it, buddy!" The crowd started laughing, although they had no clue what he meant, lol For us, it was the coolest moment of the whole show! :o) After that, the show was absolutely great! Morehead is really small, and we were six rows back from the stage (only about 25 feet from the guys) on the floor. We were standing on our chairs, screaming, dancing, it was incredible! My son had the best view of the whole thing, as he spent the show on either his daddy's or my shoulders. And everytime a song would end, since Jared's head was above the rest of the crowd, John or Robby would grin at him when they saw him clapping. :o) Cameras were allowed, and I took 4 rolls with my good camera and a disposable! lol John also mentioned that the whole concert was being filmed, and for all of us to smile alot and act like we were having a good time! lol (wonder if this means that maybe one day I'll get to see my son's footage in a Goo video?) The songs played were: (In exact order) Dizzy Longway Lazy Eye Slide Blk. Balloon Bullet Proof Naked Name January Friend Stop The World Full 4 Ever Broadway 2nd Time Around Flat Top Iris Just The Way You Are (with new ending) Burnin' Up Hate This Place 2 Days in February Their performance was energetic and fun, they involved the crowd alot, and John sprayed water all over everyone every chance he got. He poked fun at the security guards and said they probably hated him for doing stuff like that. "But hey, it's part of my job" he laughed, and sprayed them some more! lol They really rocked the house, and the sound was very clear, to the point that even if you didnt know the words, you could clearly hear what they were singing, and that's unusual. Most bands are so loud and blaring that you cant understand anything if you dont already know the music. At the end, they went off the stage saying, "See Ya" in a nonchalant way Then, this purple light came on, and this eerie sounding music, and then they popped back on stage for the encore. When this was over, while looking at the audience as if he was debating doing it or not, John smashed his guitar. He is truly a great showman! The show was totally awesome (other than a few colorful metaphores which I wish John had left out for my son's sake) All in all we had a total blast! Even my hubby, who is forever complaining about being "Stuck in Goo Land" at home! lol I caught him singing a few times (during Iris, Name, and Long Way Down) and he just grinned sheepishly After the show, I got one of John's guitar picks for Jared, (the tech was very nice about finding me one) a set list, and a tiny piece of the smashed guitar (a steel spring that I assume works the whammy bar???) We bought t-shirts and stickers too, so we have lots of momentos from this show. The entire experience was fabulous, but I swear I'd have been almost as happy if we'd never went inside. To see John down on his knees, interacting with Jared, interested in him and appreciating his GOOeyness was worth the whole trip! Sorry so long, Fay, but I know you understand!!! Love, The most happy woman (and proudest mother) alive!

No offense, but I think you'll understand after you read it. Here goes.... :o) My sister and I arrived at Louisville Gardens at almost 6pm. As we'd driven 50 miles to get there, and had had a late start getting on the road, I was afraid that we'd blown our chance to catch the guys, as the main gate would open at 6:30 and the show start at 7:30. We immediately headed for the back of the building, in hopes of finding the tour buses parked there. No buses in sight! So, we started walking down the alley that runs behind the building, and find there's a wine colored van blocking our path. I realized then that the van was pulled up to the back doors of the building, and there's a sign taped on one of the open doors that says "Goo Goo Doll Dressing Rooms" I knew we'd come to the right place! So, we sat down, smiled at the handful of people that were milling about, in and out of those doors. A few minutes later, a guy that I recognized from the Morehead show, one of the Goo guitar techs, came outside. I told him who I was, and that I'd met the guys at Morehead, and mentioned Jared. As soon as I said something about Jared, his face lit up and he remembered exactly who I was. He grinned and said he'd go and get one of the guys to come out. :o) A second later, Mike strolled out the door, saw us and came over. I told him that I had another gift for him, one that I had originally planned to get him, but couldnt find, so instead had gotten him the Wildcat T-shirt that I ended up giving him at Morehead. (I'd mentioned to him at Morehead that I'd been trying to find him a Wildcat golf club head cover, but hadnt had any luck, hence the T-shirt) So I pulled out a whole set of Wildcat blue and white golf club head covers, and he grinned really big. He thanked me and said that he wore the T-shirt I'd given him at Morehead all the time. :o) Then he said that he does enjoy a good game of golf when he's not on the road, and that now he could wear his UK t-shirt to the golf course and he'd match his golf gear, hehehe I asked him what he thought about Jared's video tape that we'd given them at Morehead, and he grinned really big and said he thought it was just great and that they watch it almost every night! That just made me sooooo happy and proud! I could hardly believe it! :o) I took a picture of him with my sister, and he talked to us for a few minutes longer about where we live, Louisville itself, and then he thanked me for the golf club head covers. I told him NO, the golf club covers had been my way of thanking HIM for being so good to my son in Morehead. He grinned again, thanked me anyway, then said he hated to go but he had to get some things done before show time. He didnt seem nearly so shy this time, and my sister commented on how sweet he is. I told her to be prepared, cause every single one of them are just as sweet!! :o) While we'd been talking to Mike, John had slipped by us. I saw him as he was walking away from us, down the alley, towards where the buses were parked on the opposite side of the building from where I had parked. All I saw was a pair of baggy olive green cargo pants, and some strange thing on his head that looked like a floppy, tan colored cowboy hat that had seen better days, hehehe I knew he'd have to come back into the building, so we didnt follow him (I think it's bad form to follow someone around) So, we sat there and waited, hoping perhaps Nathan or Robby would come out in the meantime. Well, it wasnt long before John came back up the alley, and when he saw us, I stood and told him he was just the man I wanted to see. He smiled and I could tell he knew he'd seen me before but couldnt place me. So instead of introducing myself, I asked him to tell me what he thought of my "little Goo head"s video tape, and then it clicked with him. He smiled really big and said he thought it was just great! Unfortunately, I didnt give him time to elaborate, not once I heard him speak. His voice was very quiet, just above a whisper, not at all like he carried on at Morehead. I looked at him seriously and told him that he didnt sound too good. He rolled his eyes a bit, then he grinned and said that he'd be alright, that the doctors had just told him to take it easy. I told him that I really wished he'd just go home and get well. He looked surprised that I would say that, then he looked a little sad and said that he couldn't go home, that they'd already cancelled some shows, and that he just couldnt. I felt really bad for him. To keep things light, and to prevent myself from doing my usual mothering and pecking at him any further, I told him I'd brought him a few things and he smiled. I gave him an 8x10 enlargement of a picture of him and Jared together. The one where they are sharing a laugh and have the eye contact thing going on. The one where Jared had just asked if he could play on stage with him at Morehead and then proceeded to tell John that he wanted to "Rock with the Goos!" I told him I thought it might make a nice keepsake for him, and John smiled, held it up to get a better look, and just grinned. Then I gave him a bottle of UK blue nail polish (I never thought I'd EVER give nail polish to a man! hehe) and he thought that was pretty cool. I told him I didnt get him alot this time because I'd gotten him the double cd set at Morehead, and I asked him how he liked it. He said it was great, that he'd listened to it alot :o) Then I gave him the card that Jared made for him when he found out John was sick. (Get out the hankie, this will almost make you cry!) I told John that Jared had made the card himself, and bless his little heart, he's just learning to write his letters, but he wrote on it: "To John" then a little heart in the middle (for Love) then, "Jared" at the bottom. On the inside he'd written: "I love you" and "Get Well" at the bottom. All this was done squiggly wiggly in crayon, yet you could read it. Jared had also pulled his favorite stickers off one of his Tonka trucks and stuck them on it, and then just basically doodled and stamped all over it, hehe. It was a true labor of love, I'd say, and John said that it was a great thing for him to do, and seemed to really and truly like it. The tear jerking part comes next, though. I handed John a gift from Jared. Something that Jared had brought to me right before I left for the show and told me to give to John. I was surprised at what it was, and almost didnt agree to take it for fear that Jared would regret it later, but he insisted. I handed John a little, beat up, nicked up, black GTO HotWheel car that has been Jared's very favorite forever. He'd gotten it for his first birthday, and has often carried it in his pants pockets and slept with it. It must have cost him a great deal to part with it, because he looked kind of solemn when he told me to give it to John, but he insisted that I should, because he was certain that it would make John feel better. When I handed it to John and explained all that to him, this look passed over his face that was indescribable. He looked up at me and I could tell he was touched. Then he smiled this quiet little half smile, rolled the little car back and forth on his hand for a second, then turned it over and looked at it from all sides, commented that it was a GTO, and grinned. That's all he said, though, which puzzled me, then I thought that maybe I'd been wrong, that maybe he wasn't touched after all, that he was just amused at getting a little junky toy from a little 4 year old kid. He thanked me for the nail polish and photograph, and I told him that it was just my way of saying thanks for him being so good to my son. I told him everybody in our whole town knows how nice they are! And he laughed After that, I put my arm around him (his hands were full) and my sister took a picture of us, then I got one of her with him too. (When the pics were developed, John isnt looking at the camera for that one, he's still looking at the little Hot Wheel and Jared's homemade card in his hand) He talked to us for a moment longer, still making no mention whatsoever about the little car, even though he'd thanked me for everything else. But when he left us to go inside, he suddenly stopped and turned to me in the doorway. Held that little car up in his fist, in a grip so tight his knuckles were white, and said in a voice surprisingly fierce, "You tell him (meaning Jared) that I said thank you VERY much for this, and that I will hang on to it and NEVER let ANYTHING happen to it" I told him I would, watched as he slipped it into his pants pocket, then disappeared inside. Oh, I could have just bawled like a baby! And something made me feel (even my sister commented on it) that John had felt like doing the same. It was a priceless moment, one I'll never forget. While I was trying to decide if I was going to cry or not, Mike came back out with some envelopes in his hand. He grinned at us and asked if we knew where he could find a mail box. I reminded him that we werent from Louisville, so we wouldnt know, but surely there would be one on almost every corner since we were right downtown. He told us to wish him luck, that if he didnt show up for the show to tell everyone he was lost on the streets of downtown Louisville, lol, then he headed off down the alley :o) Well, shortly after that, one of the security guys that had been so nice to us, came out said his supervisor had just came in and had asked what we were doing there in the alley. He said it would probably be best if we went ahead and left. So, we headed to where the tour buses were parked, and waited right next to them for Nathan and Robby. While we were waiting, this older fellow, who was security, came over and asked us what we were doing, and I told him that we were waiting to catch the guys, and that we'd already seen Mike and John. He smiled and said he'd been with them all day and that they seemed like really nice boys. I agreed wholeheartedly and told him about our experience at Morehead. He thought it was really cool, and after I told him that I was there on a "Thank You Mission", he said he understood and said he'd let us wait by the buses as long as we needed to. He was really nice! A few minutes later, around the corner came Nathan :o) After he'd signed Jared's guitar at Morehead, and was so nice to us, telling us about his little girl and stuff, I felt really guilty for not bringing him anything. So, this time, I'd gotten him a gift. An unusual one. As he got closer, I called to him and he came over. He didnt recognize me 'til I told him I was Jared's mom, and then a big grin broke out on his face. I told him that I'd felt really bad about not getting him anything at Morehead, so I'd brought him something this time. His face lit up. Until I told him that what I'd brought was not exactly for HIM. He looked a little confused, but curious. As I placed a book in his hands, a book called '20th Century Treasury of Children's Stories', I explained to him that I remembered him telling us that he had a 2 year old little girl, and that I'd gotten him the book in hopes that he would take the time to sit with her and read to her as I've always done with Jared. He LOVED it!!!! As soon as I laid it in his hands, the man went crazy! He was oooohing and aaaaahing and flipping pages and pointing at the artwork. He was ecstatic! More excited than I ever dreamed he'd be. As it was a compilation book, with everything from Curious George to Madeline to The Star Bellied Sneeches; over 30 books with the original artwork, Nathan was absolutely tickled! I've NEVER seen anyone get so excited about a book before! He was pointing out all this stuff, commenting that this one or that one was a favorite author/artist, he was truly happy. :o) Which made ME happy, because I'd sort of had my doubts about giving the book to him in the first place, but now I KNOW I made the right choice!! As I was watching Nathan and getting a kick out of him with his book, he suddenly held it up and yelled down the street! "Hey! Look what I just got!" And here came John and Mr. Dirty Toes himself! (pardon the expression, but Jared kindly pointed that fact out to Robby when we met them at Morehead, hehe) Robby had a smile on his face. (and shock of all shocks...SHOES on his feet!) John had his things that we'd given him in his hands, grinned, waved, and headed on into the bus. He really looked sick and very tired :o( Nathan pulled Robby over to look at the book before I could even say anything! hehe Robby checked it out for a moment, then looked up at me and I told him who I was, gave him my usual identity- "I'm Jared's mom" He said "Cool! Good to see you again!" and grinned huge! I asked him what he thought about Jared's video, and he just started saying how cool he thought it was, how they were forever confused by how I got them AND Jared into the same video (I shot Jared playing beside a large mirror that reflected the guys playing the HRL show on the big screen tv on the opposite side of the room, fyi) He said they were all tripping because the video showed them playing left handed, and they are all righties, hehehe Really screwed them up! They finally figured out how it was done, and thought it was cool. I told Robby that I'd gotten him a gift, something guaranteed that he would like and use! He looked like a little kid, got that excited expression that a child does when they know they are going to get a surprise. He's so darned cute! I got him a mousepad for his computer that you can put your own picture inside of. I showed him that I'd already put a picture of him and Jared together in it, but got it mainly because I thought he might like to put in a picture of his family. I thought it might help him when he gets to missing them while he's on the road. He loved it! I also presented him (because he and I have a mutual friend that has him on e-mail, and I had asked this person to contact Robby and make sure it was ok) with 2 homemade Rum Cakes, that are a specialty of mine. Well, with John being sick and the guys off the road for a few days, Robby hadnt checked any of his e-mails, so he didnt know I was bringing the cakes. After not hearing anything back from our mutual friend, I decided to take a risk and bake them anyway, hoping like hell that they would accept them, after having remembered me from Morehead. Robby looked surprised that I'd done such a thing, and I told him that I would understand completely if he felt they couldnt accept them, that I'd known I was taking a risk in bringing them. He said no, that it was fine, that it was just great of me to do it for them, and thanked me profusely. He kept saying that he couldnt believe I had taken the time to BAKE something for THEM! He set the cakes down on the sidewalk then gave me a full frontal hug and kissed me on the cheek! :o) Another priceless moment!! Then I had my sister take a picture of me standing between Robby and Nathan (Who had to be got up off the sidewalk, lol! While Robby and I were talking, Nathan had sat down on the sidewalk, leaned up against the building, and was flipping through the book, pointing out "Curious George to my sister!) Robby signed my sister's COA cd liner, and drew her a little GOO :o) Then he noticed the canned food we'd brought, and told us that the fans had donated 50,000 cans to date! He seemed really proud about it. (and should be!) As it was 7pm, everyone had to go!! We had to get inside, and they had to get dressed!! Nathan and Robby thanked me again, Nathan told me once more how much he totally loved the book, then they told us goodbye and that they'd see us in a little while. We started heading for the front gate. We were in a hurry because the gates had been open for over a half hour and we were certain we were too late to ANYWHERE near the front, as this show was Gen. Admn. Before we could make it past the tour buses, the security fellow that had let us remain by the buses came over and started talking to us again because he'd seen our exchange with the guys and just thought it was fabulous. He started telling us about some of the shows he had worked over the years, and I got a sinking feeling because I didnt want to be rude and cut him off, but our chances of getting good spots for the show were gone. It was 15 minutes til show time. At the first opportunity, I told him we were sorry to go but we HAD to get inside. He looked at his watch, and I could tell by his face that he knew he'd been holding us up and that it was LATE. I told him we'd probably screwed up by waiting around so long to see the guys, but it was definately worth it, but now we would NEVER find a good view of the stage on the floor like we wanted. He struggled with himself for a second, came to a mental decision, and told us to follow him! He took us back around to the dressing room doors where we'd met Mike and John earlier, took us in, through that room, down a hallway passing us right by a whole crew of security, telling them it was ok, that we were with him! I couldnt believe it when we found ourselves entering the arena from behind the security barriers! He introduced us to his son, who also worked there, told him to take care of our extra stuff (gift bags, canned food, etc) and to show us where we could pick them up after the show. He then walked us out to the front barrier, opened a gate, and let us out right in front of the stage! We thanked him, and then I remembered our tickets in my pocket. I handed them to him and asked him if he would take them out front and give them to someone outside that didnt have tickets. I mean, I'd already paid for them, so SOMEBODY should get to use them! lol He grinned and said he would, told us to have a blast and enjoy ourselves. A really really cool guy!! The next thing we did was go around to the other side of the stage, on John's side, because we just couldnt see anything on our side (Robby's) but huge speakers on the stage. We were too far out on the edge of the crowd. My aunt and cousin were to meet us at the show, (yes, I'm determined to convert EVERYONE to Goo, lol!) and we got lucky enough to find them on our way around. They joined us, and we managed to work our way to just left of John's mic stand, and were in the second and third rows, so we could see. I didnt care for Frog Pond, the opening band (which John later told us was "An ass whuppin that you deserved for acting so wild" hehe). Fastball was pretty good, they were fun. I knew we were in trouble as soon as the opening bands started playing, because during the short time they were on, already about 15 people were crowd surfing. I'd never been in a mosh pit before and it got really really ugly! (My aunt almost got into a fist fight! ugh!) By the time the guys came on, it was terrible! My poor sister got a whole glass of Pepsi dumped on her head, in her face as soon as Dizzy opened! My cousin Ashley had to leave to go sit in the stands because she was getting too hot and light headed, so my aunt left with her. My sister and I remained, and she was almost crying from the Pepsi in her eyes. She took it pretty well, other than her eyes burning for a long time, but I was scared to death she'd hate me for bringing her!! (she'd never been to a concert before) I wont go into anymore detail about how bad it got, but I will say that John stopped the music dead right in the middle of Naked and told everybody to calm down. He also offered some guy his money back. Apparently the guy was fighting (I couldnt see) and John was pissed about it. He sang incredibly well, much better than I was expecting when I had talked to him earlier. He worked the crowd alot (and was still wearing that silly hat, btw!), but didnt carry on his verbal nonsense like he did at Morehead. He did tell everyone that the doctors had said he'd "F*cked up" his throat, but then laughed and said they'd told him he was ugly too! He was in a playful mood, and made a few short jokes, but all in all, you could tell he wasnt cutting loose like normal. Singing wise, he was as fabulous as ever, though. I did notice on Iris that on the chorus he took a different approach, bringing it down a bit, but it worked out great, and no one seemed to notice or mind. He did wonderful! I noticed him slipping off between songs to sip from a coffee mug sitting on one of the speakers. He had a water bottle as well (which he later tossed out to a girl standing directly in front of me) but he only drank from it once. So I assume whatever was in that coffee cup was medicinal for his throat. Robby was his usual bubbly, energetic self, playing with the crowd, working his own brand of magic. He played fabulously, and I noticed that he kept an eye on John, during almost every song, especially the vocally demanding choruses, Robby would get close to John and give him a look, kind of asking him silently with his eyes if he was ok. John would nod, Robby would grin, and they'd just rock together! They have great chemistry and the crowd eats it up! At the end of the show, John brought out this white guitar, and tried to smash it. It must have been one well made guitar, because he threw it 4 times across the stage (I dont know why he didnt just beat it on the floor) and it still didnt break apart. He finally shrugged and gave up. The whole show went well, and if I hadnt been stuck in the middle of a bunch of rude, shoving, pushing, pulling people, I would have enjoyed it. It was definately NOT an equal to Morehead! After the show, the guitar tech that remembered me from Morehead, the one who we had talked to earlier by the dressing room doors, he saw me, grinned, came over to the edge of the stage, and tried to toss me a guitar pick. One went over my head and someone else got it, and 2 landed on the floor in front of me, behind the barrier, and the security guard picked them up and gave one to someone else and stuck the other in his own pocket, although the tech was trying to tell him that they'd been intended for me. I gave up, told him thanks for trying, then went off to find my stuff backstage. We still had to put our canned goods in the box out front, so we came back through the arena, and I saw the guitar tech again on the stage. I went over to tell him goodbye, and thanked him for telling the guys I was outside earlier. I started for the door and got half way across the floor before he yelled for me. I turned and he motioned for me to come back. I did, and he dug into his pocket and pulled out 2 brand new picks, and handed one to me and one to my sister. :o) We were surprised and thanked him a bunch! I have just a few pics that we took with the guys before the show (my sister didnt snap away like my hubby did at Morehead, unfortunately) and then I have 3 rolls that I took inside during the show. I hope they'll all turn out well, I'll let you know. I guess my reason for not wanting this review posted to the site is because it just seems too personal, you know? All my meetings with the guys directly related back to our meeting them at Morehead and their meeting with Jared. I dont know. I feel weird about it. Something about John's fierceness over that little beat up car, Nathan's utter delight with that children's book.....it's just too emotionally personal, something I dont want to sully by having all those little 12 year old girls on the GGDs and TTB lists that read it on your site e-mailing me and telling me how "awesome" or "waaaay cool" they think it is. It surpassed those terms. I truly think the guys were all touched by their gifts, and I was touched by their reactions. Somehow, to exploit that by allowing a thousand people to read it, it would be like sneaking a video camera into their homes during Christmas with their families, catching those special moments and emotions on video, and then selling copies of it out on the street corner. It would just cheapen it somehow. Does that sound crazy? There is also the food issue. I dont want 10,000 people suddenly trying to give them homemade food, which is potentially dangerous, and I dont think they'd go for that. For them to accept what I gave them was an exception, I'd say, and was only allowed because they'd met me before, and had had a memorable experience with my son. Well, Fay, you were the one person that I DID want to share this with. You've been very sweet to me in the past, giving me parenting advice and such, and I know you'll get what I'm saying. It was a very special, very precious, very priceless time for me, and for the guys as well, I think. (I hope!) Sorry it's sooooo long again, but I'm a writer in my spare time, so it comes easy to me, hehe I hope you'll enjoy it and savor it too. :o) Let me know what you think Ever Your Friend, Lisa Miller --=_-=_-CDLMHHNDBEBMGAAA-- ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 01 Oct 1999 22:14:45 -0700 To: goo@mailinglists.org From: "Agoostic#3 of the TTB " Cc: Subject: Here's the Morehead review (first show) Message-ID: Fay, Oh Lord, I am soooooo excited!!!! I just got back from Morehead, and I had the best time of my life! All my dreams for my son and myself came true. It was an absolutely perfect night in every way! (If I can calm down enough to tell you about it..... :o) Ok, here goes..... We arrived at 5:30pm (the show wasnt scheduled to start til 8) We parked in the very same lot as the tour buses, and the security guards said that we were the first to arrive. They were standing by the open doors, and we could hear the sound check going on from inside, which was cool. The guards saw my son, who was wearing his black "John Rzeznik" shirt, as he calls it, and black pants, and his beaded necklaces that I got him. He also had his little electric guitar strapped on, and refused to take it off, lol The guards talked to us and told us that the main gate, which was around the other side of the building, wouldnt open til 7pm, so we decided, since they were so amused by our son, to stay there and talk to them and listen to the sound check. At one point, Jared asked one of the guards if he was the "Goo Police" lol! After about 5 minutes or so, Nathan came out of the building and went into the tour bus. I wanted to meet him but hadnt recognized him in time to call him over, so we watched for him to come back out. While we were watching for Nathan, here came Robby! I got the gift out that we brought for him, held it up to get his attention, and called him over. As soon as he saw Jared, he was down on his knees (and barefooted, as ever! lol) and was talking to my son. :o) He commented on how Jared was wearing clothes and necklaces like Johns, and asked if he could look at his guitar. Of course, Jared didnt want to hand his guitar over, so Robby signed it while it was hanging around his neck, lol! I also had him sign my Dizzy cd liner. (I was busy taking pictures of him knelt down with Jared, and completely forgot to have someone take one with me in it with him! :o( ) He talked to Jared for a few minutes, and assured us the rest of the guys would be out before the show, and then I gave him the gift we brought. He opened it right there, and just started laughing! (We got him UK Wildcat socks to remind him of his visit to Kentucky) I told him that I'd talked to you, Fay, a couple of times, and that I had promised to give you a review, and he said to please tell you hello from him, and commented that you were just GREAT! I also told him that I know Mary from Australia (she'll know who she is...) and he immediately knew who I was talking about, said her last name out loud and grinned. He talked to Jared about music a few moments longer, kept telling Jared how cool he thought he was, which made my son just grin like a little monkey! He thanked us several times, shook Jared's, mine and my husband's hands, and then went on out to the bus. :o) A few moments later, out came Nathan again. Jared stepped forward, after I told him who Nathan was, and asked him to sign his guitar for him. Nathan obliged, and knelt down to do the deed. He also commented that he has a little girl and that she has a guitar identical to Jared's, and he thought that it was pretty cool. I have pictures of all this too :o) He didnt stay with us too long, but we saw him several times, cause he must have made 4 or 5 trips to and from the bus. Well, Robby must have gone back inside and told Mike and John, cause Mike came out a short while later, and when I called him over and told him I had a gift for him, when he saw Jared, he said, "Hey, you're that little guy that everyone is talking about inside" :o) He seemed a little shy, almost kind of embarrassed by our getting him a gift, but he opened it right there, and when he saw that it was a blue Kentucky t-shirt, he pulled it out of the box and grinned. He thanked us, signed Jared's guitar, commented on Jared's "John Clothes" and laughed. He told us he hoped we would have a good time at the show. One thing that was funny, was that he had this white bag slung over his arm. Well, Jared, being the little kid he is, he asked Mike if there was a surprise in the bag for him! (how presumptuous! lol) Mike laughed and said it was his laundry, that they have to do their own laundry just like everyone else. :o) He thanked us again, took a few pics with Jared, and then went back inside. Well, up to this point, we had been the only folks there by the guards. Now, however, being that it was about 5 minutes til the main gate opened, people (mostly girls) were starting to gather around. When John came out, there were about 10 other people around, and all the girls started for him. Well, of a sudden, he ran up, took this ladies camera away from her and started snapping pictures of her with her own camera! lol And then, he chased the ladies daughter around and around (the girl was about 13) laughing the whole time! It was funny! Then he saw Jared and stopped. It was a really cool moment, cause he just stood there and took him in. He said "Oh my God! You have my clothes on!" lol (I was too focused on this exchange to even think about pictures, so luckily my hubby was snapping away!) John walked over to Jared, knelt down and asked him where he got the cool necklaces he was wearing. Jared told him, "My Mama got them for me, and I have 2!" John laughed and said that he had about 10 just like it at home. I told John that he is Jared's hero, and he grinned really big and started asking if anyone had something he could sign Jared's guitar with. I handed him my pen, (which I never got back, lol) and he signed it while all these other people were standing around getting impatient. (it's terrible of me to say this, but I totally did NOT care about their impatience! I had been waiting for this moment for months, and my son was finally standing in front of his hero, and all his little dreams were coming true, and the others were the last thing on my mind!) He was still talking to Jared when a lady asked him if he'd kiss her daughter (it was her birthday) and sign their shirts. As soon as he did this, he turned right back to Jared, and started talking to him again about what his favorite music was (and of course, Jared said GOO!) He also looked at Jared's guitar and noticed all the pick scratches on it, he said, "Boy, you must play it alot to have that many scratches, cause mine looks like that too!" We gave him his gift (an Elvis Costello double cd set) which he opened right there, and when he saw what it was, he asked Jared if he liked Elvis Costello too. Jared said, "No. I just like GOO!" and John laughed. I gave him a letter I'd had the foresight to write, knowing we'd have little or no time to spend with him, telling him about how GOOey my son really is, then I handed John the video tape we'd made of Jared doing his version of the Hard Rock Live performance. I told him what was on it, and he really laughed and asked Jared which songs he played on it. He seemed impressed when I told him that Jared plays the entire 5 song set, and he promised to watch it when he went out to the bus (which is where he was headed when he came out of the building) He thanked us for the cd, shook Jared's hand again, and then turned to sign some things for the others. As soon as this was over, Jared asked John if he could play on stage with him. John looked wowed and asked, "You want to play on the stage with me? Would you really do that?" Jared grinned really big and told him, "Yeah! I wanna rock with the Goos!" Then John grinned, laughed and said, "Well, I'll have to ask my tour manager, cause he's kinda my boss these days" lol A moment later, he thanked us again, signed my Dizzy cd liner, let us take some more pics of him and Jared, and then headed off to the tour bus. His last words to us right before he stepped on the bus were, "I'm gonna go watch this right now!" Well, I guess he did, cause we got inside and got the New Radicals out of the way (sorry, but I dont care for them. I was there to see GOO!) and after they opened with Dizzy, while the crowd was still cheering, the lights came into the audience, and John saw my son sitting on my husband's shoulders, holding his little guitar way up in the air, cheering. John pointed right at him, and said: "Everybody stop! See that little guy right there in the middle of the crowd with his guitar?" and everyone turned and looked at us, Then John said, "That little guy's trying to take my job!" then laughs, "Well, you can have it, buddy!" The crowd started laughing, although they had no clue what he meant, lol For us, it was the coolest moment of the whole show! :o) After that, the show was absolutely great! Morehead is really small, and we were six rows back from the stage (only about 25 feet from the guys) on the floor. We were standing on our chairs, screaming, dancing, it was incredible! My son had the best view of the whole thing, as he spent the show on either his daddy's or my shoulders. And everytime a song would end, since Jared's head was above the rest of the crowd, John or Robby would grin at him when they saw him clapping. :o) Cameras were allowed, and I took 4 rolls with my good camera and a disposable! lol John also mentioned that the whole concert was being filmed, and for all of us to smile alot and act like we were having a good time! lol (wonder if this means that maybe one day I'll get to see my son's footage in a Goo video?) The songs played were: (In exact order) Dizzy Longway Lazy Eye Slide Blk. Balloon Bullet Proof Naked Name January Friend Stop The World Full 4 Ever Broadway 2nd Time Around Flat Top Iris Just The Way You Are (with new ending) Burnin' Up Hate This Place 2 Days in February Their performance was energetic and fun, they involved the crowd alot, and John sprayed water all over everyone every chance he got. He poked fun at the security guards and said they probably hated him for doing stuff like that. "But hey, it's part of my job" he laughed, and sprayed them some more! lol They really rocked the house, and the sound was very clear, to the point that even if you didnt know the words, you could clearly hear what they were singing, and that's unusual. Most bands are so loud and blaring that you cant understand anything if you dont already know the music. At the end, they went off the stage saying, "See Ya" in a nonchalant way Then, this purple light came on, and this eerie sounding music, and then they popped back on stage for the encore. When this was over, while looking at the audience as if he was debating doing it or not, John smashed his guitar. He is truly a great showman! The show was totally awesome (other than a few colorful metaphores which I wish John had left out for my son's sake) All in all we had a total blast! Even my hubby, who is forever complaining about being "Stuck in Goo Land" at home! lol I caught him singing a few times (during Iris, Name, and Long Way Down) and he just grinned sheepishly After the show, I got one of John's guitar picks for Jared, (the tech was very nice about finding me one) a set list, and a tiny piece of the smashed guitar (a steel spring that I assume works the whammy bar???) We bought t-shirts and stickers too, so we have lots of momentos from this show. The entire experience was fabulous, but I swear I'd have been almost as happy if we'd never went inside. To see John down on his knees, interacting with Jared, interested in him and appreciating his GOOeyness was worth the whole trip! Sorry so long, Fay, but I know you understand!!!

(We got him UK Wildcat socks to remind him of his visit to Kentucky) I told him that I'd talked to you, Fay, a couple of times, and that I had promised to give you a review, and he said to please tell you hello from him, and commented that you were just GREAT! I also told him that I know Mary from Australia (she'll know who she is...) and he immediately knew who I was talking about, said her last name out loud and grinned. He talked to Jared about music a few moments longer, kept telling Jared how cool he thought he was, which made my son just grin like a little monkey! He thanked us several times, shook Jared's, mine and my husband's hands, and then went on out to the bus. :o) A few moments later, out came Nathan again. Jared stepped forward, after I told him who Nathan was, and asked him to sign his guitar for him. Nathan obliged, and knelt down to do the deed. He also commented that he has a little girl and that she has a guitar identical to Jared's, and he thought that it was pretty cool. I have pictures of all this too :o) He didnt stay with us too long, but we saw him several times, cause he must have made 4 or 5 trips to and from the bus. Well, Robby must have gone back inside and told Mike and John, cause Mike came out a short while later, and when I called him over and told him I had a gift for him, when he saw Jared, he said, "Hey, you're that little guy that everyone is talking about inside" :o) He seemed a little shy, almost kind of embarrassed by our getting him a gift, but he opened it right there, and when he saw that it was a blue Kentucky t-shirt, he pulled it out of the box and grinned. He thanked us, signed Jared's guitar, commented on Jared's "John Clothes" and laughed. He told us he hoped we would have a good time at the show. One thing that was funny, was that he had this white bag slung over his arm. Well, Jared, being the little kid he is, he asked Mike if there was a surprise in the bag for him! (how presumptuous! lol) Mike laughed and said it was his laundry, that they have to do their own laundry just like everyone else. :o) He thanked us again, took a few pics with Jared, and then went back inside. Well, up to this point, we had been the only folks there by the guards. Now, however, being that it was about 5 minutes til the main gate opened, people (mostly girls) were starting to gather around. When John came out, there were about 10 other people around, and all the girls started for him. Well, of a sudden, he ran up, took this ladies camera away from her and started snapping pictures of her with her own camera! lol And then, he chased the ladies daughter around and around (the girl was about 13) laughing the whole time! It was funny! Then he saw Jared and stopped. It was a really cool moment, cause he just stood there and took him in. He said "Oh my God! You have my clothes on!" lol (I was too focused on this exchange to even think about pictures, so luckily my hubby was snapping away!) John walked over to Jared, knelt down and asked him where he got the cool necklaces he was wearing. Jared told him, "My Mama got them for me, and I have 2!" John laughed and said that he had about 10 just like it at home. I told John that he is Jared's hero, and he grinned really big and started asking if anyone had something he could sign Jared's guitar with. I handed him my pen, (which I never got back, lol) and he signed it while all these other people were standing around getting impatient. (it's terrible of me to say this, but I totally did NOT care about their impatience! I had been waiting for this moment for months, and my son was finally standing in front of his hero, and all his little dreams were coming true, and the others were the last thing on my mind!) He was still talking to Jared when a lady asked him if he'd kiss her daughter (it was her birthday) and sign their shirts. As soon as he did this, he turned right back to Jared, and started talking to him again about what his favorite music was (and of course, Jared said GOO!) He also looked at Jared's guitar and noticed all the pick scratches on it, he said, "Boy, you must play it alot to have that many scratches, cause mine looks like that too!" We gave him his gift (an Elvis Costello double cd set) which he opened right there, and when he saw what it was, he asked Jared if he liked Elvis Costello too. Jared said, "No. I just like GOO!" and John laughed. I gave him a letter I'd had the foresight to write, knowing we'd have little or no time to spend with him, telling him about how GOOey my son really is, then I handed John the video tape we'd made of Jared doing his version of the Hard Rock Live performance. I told him what was on it, and he really laughed and asked Jared which songs he played on it. He seemed impressed when I told him that Jared plays the entire 5 song set, and he promised to watch it when he went out to the bus (which is where he was headed when he came out of the building) He thanked us for the cd, shook Jared's hand again, and then turned to sign some things for the others. As soon as this was over, Jared asked John if he could play on stage with him. John looked wowed and asked, "You want to play on the stage with me? Would you really do that?" Jared grinned really big and told him, "Yeah! I wanna rock with the Goos!" Then John grinned, laughed and said, "Well, I'll have to ask my tour manager, cause he's kinda my boss these days" lol A moment later, he thanked us again, signed my Dizzy cd liner, let us take some more pics of him and Jared, and then headed off to the tour bus. His last words to us right before he stepped on the bus were, "I'm gonna go watch this right now!" Well, I guess he did, cause we got inside and got the New Radicals out of the way (sorry, but I dont care for them. I was there to see GOO!) and after they opened with Dizzy, while the crowd was still cheering, the lights came into the audience, and John saw my son sitting on my husband's shoulders, holding his little guitar way up in the air, cheering. John pointed right at him, and said: "Everybody stop! See that little guy right there in the middle of the crowd with his guitar?" and everyone turned and looked at us, Then John said, "That little guy's trying to take my job!" then laughs, "Well, you can have it, buddy!" The crowd started laughing, although they had no clue what he meant, lol For us, it was the coolest moment of the whole show! :o) After that, the show was absolutely great! Morehead is really small, and we were six rows back from the stage (only about 25 feet from the guys) on the floor. We were standing on our chairs, screaming, dancing, it was incredible! My son had the best view of the whole thing, as he spent the show on either his daddy's or my shoulders. And everytime a song would end, since Jared's head was above the rest of the crowd, John or Robby would grin at him when they saw him clapping. :o) Cameras were allowed, and I took 4 rolls with my good camera and a disposable! lol John also mentioned that the whole concert was being filmed, and for all of us to smile alot and act like we were having a good time! lol (wonder if this means that maybe one day I'll get to see my son's footage in a Goo video?) The songs played were: (In exact order) Dizzy Longway Lazy Eye Slide Blk. Balloon Bullet Proof Naked Name January Friend Stop The World Full 4 Ever Broadway 2nd Time Around Flat Top Iris Just The Way You Are (with new ending) Burnin' Up Hate This Place 2 Days in February Their performance was energetic and fun, they involved the crowd alot, and John sprayed water all over everyone every chance he got. He poked fun at the security guards and said they probably hated him for doing stuff like that. "But hey, it's part of my job" he laughed, and sprayed them some more! lol They really rocked the house, and the sound was very clear, to the point that even if you didnt know the words, you could clearly hear what they were singing, and that's unusual. Most bands are so loud and blaring that you cant understand anything if you dont already know the music. At the end, they went off the stage saying, "See Ya" in a nonchalant way Then, this purple light came on, and this eerie sounding music, and then they popped back on stage for the encore. When this was over, while looking at the audience as if he was debating doing it or not, John smashed his guitar. He is truly a great showman! The show was totally awesome (other than a few colorful metaphores which I wish John had left out for my son's sake) All in all we had a total blast! Even my hubby, who is forever complaining about being "Stuck in Goo Land" at home! lol I caught him singing a few times (during Iris, Name, and Long Way Down) and he just grinned sheepishly After the show, I got one of John's guitar picks for Jared, (the tech was very nice about finding me one) a set list, and a tiny piece of the smashed guitar (a steel spring that I assume works the whammy bar???) We bought t-shirts and stickers too, so we have lots of momentos from this show. The entire experience was fabulous, but I swear I'd have been almost as happy if we'd never went inside. To see John down on his knees, interacting with Jared, interested in him and appreciating his GOOeyness was worth the whole trip! Sorry so long, Fay, but I know you understand!!!

I just got back from Morehead, and I had the best time of my life! All my dreams for my son and myself came true. It was an absolutely perfect night in every way! (If I can calm down enough to tell you about it..... :o) Ok, here goes..... We arrived at 5:30pm (the show wasnt scheduled to start til 8) We parked in the very same lot as the tour buses, and the security guards said that we were the first to arrive. They were standing by the open doors, and we could hear the sound check going on from inside, which was cool. The guards saw my son, who was wearing his black "John Rzeznik" shirt, as he calls it, and black pants, and his beaded necklaces that I got him. He also had his little electric guitar strapped on, and refused to take it off, lol The guards talked to us and told us that the main gate, which was around the other side of the building, wouldnt open til 7pm, so we decided, since they were so amused by our son, to stay there and talk to them and listen to the sound check. At one point, Jared asked one of the guards if he was the "Goo Police" lol! After about 5 minutes or so, Nathan came out of the building and went into the tour bus. I wanted to meet him but hadnt recognized him in time to call him over, so we watched for him to come back out. While we were watching for Nathan, here came Robby! I got the gift out that we brought for him, held it up to get his attention, and called him over. As soon as he saw Jared, he was down on his knees (and barefooted, as ever! lol) and was talking to my son. :o) He commented on how Jared was wearing clothes and necklaces like Johns, and asked if he could look at his guitar. Of course, Jared didnt want to hand his guitar over, so Robby signed it while it was hanging around his neck, lol! I also had him sign my Dizzy cd liner. (I was busy taking pictures of him knelt down with Jared, and completely forgot to have someone take one with me in it with him! :o( ) He talked to Jared for a few minutes, and assured us the rest of the guys would be out before the show, and then I gave him the gift we brought.

No offense, but I think you'll understand after you read it. Here goes.... :o) My sister and I arrived at Louisville Gardens at almost 6pm. As we'd driven 50 miles to get there, and had had a late start getting on the road, I was afraid that we'd blown our chance to catch the guys, as the main gate would open at 6:30 and the show start at 7:30. We immediately headed for the back of the building, in hopes of finding the tour buses parked there. No buses in sight! So, we started walking down the alley that runs behind the building, and find there's a wine colored van blocking our path. I realized then that the van was pulled up to the back doors of the building, and there's a sign taped on one of the open doors that says "Goo Goo Doll Dressing Rooms" I knew we'd come to the right place! So, we sat down, smiled at the handful of people that were milling about, in and out of those doors. A few minutes later, a guy that I recognized from the Morehead show, one of the Goo guitar techs, came outside. I told him who I was, and that I'd met the guys at Morehead, and mentioned Jared. As soon as I said something about Jared, his face lit up and he remembered exactly who I was. He grinned and said he'd go and get one of the guys to come out. :o) A second later, Mike strolled out the door, saw us and came over. I told him that I had another gift for him, one that I had originally planned to get him, but couldnt find, so instead had gotten him the Wildcat T-shirt that I ended up giving him at Morehead. (I'd mentioned to him at Morehead that I'd been trying to find him a Wildcat golf club head cover, but hadnt had any luck, hence the T-shirt) So I pulled out a whole set of Wildcat blue and white golf club head covers, and he grinned really big. He thanked me and said that he wore the T-shirt I'd given him at Morehead all the time. :o) Then he said that he does enjoy a good game of golf when he's not on the road, and that now he could wear his UK t-shirt to the golf course and he'd match his golf gear, hehehe I asked him what he thought about Jared's video tape that we'd given them at Morehead, and he grinned really big and said he thought it was just great and that they watch it almost every night! That just made me sooooo happy and proud! I could hardly believe it! :o) I took a picture of him with my sister, and he talked to us for a few minutes longer about where we live, Louisville itself, and then he thanked me for the golf club head covers. I told him NO, the golf club covers had been my way of thanking HIM for being so good to my son in Morehead. He grinned again, thanked me anyway, then said he hated to go but he had to get some things done before show time. He didnt seem nearly so shy this time, and my sister commented on how sweet he is. I told her to be prepared, cause every single one of them are just as sweet!! :o) While we'd been talking to Mike, John had slipped by us. I saw him as he was walking away from us, down the alley, towards where the buses were parked on the opposite side of the building from where I had parked. All I saw was a pair of baggy olive green cargo pants, and some strange thing on his head that looked like a floppy, tan colored cowboy hat that had seen better days, hehehe I knew he'd have to come back into the building, so we didnt follow him (I think it's bad form to follow someone around) So, we sat there and waited, hoping perhaps Nathan or Robby would come out in the meantime. Well, it wasnt long before John came back up the alley, and when he saw us, I stood and told him he was just the man I wanted to see. He smiled and I could tell he knew he'd seen me before but couldnt place me. So instead of introducing myself, I asked him to tell me what he thought of my "little Goo head"s video tape, and then it clicked with him. He smiled really big and said he thought it was just great! Unfortunately, I didnt give him time to elaborate, not once I heard him speak. His voice was very quiet, just above a whisper, not at all like he carried on at Morehead. I looked at him seriously and told him that he didnt sound too good. He rolled his eyes a bit, then he grinned and said that he'd be alright, that the doctors had just told him to take it easy. I told him that I really wished he'd just go home and get well. He looked surprised that I would say that, then he looked a little sad and said that he couldn't go home, that they'd already cancelled some shows, and that he just couldnt. I felt really bad for him. To keep things light, and to prevent myself from doing my usual mothering and pecking at him any further, I told him I'd brought him a few things and he smiled. I gave him an 8x10 enlargement of a picture of him and Jared together. The one where they are sharing a laugh and have the eye contact thing going on. The one where Jared had just asked if he could play on stage with him at Morehead and then proceeded to tell John that he wanted to "Rock with the Goos!" I told him I thought it might make a nice keepsake for him, and John smiled, held it up to get a better look, and just grinned. Then I gave him a bottle of UK blue nail polish (I never thought I'd EVER give nail polish to a man! hehe) and he thought that was pretty cool. I told him I didnt get him alot this time because I'd gotten him the double cd set at Morehead, and I asked him how he liked it. He said it was great, that he'd listened to it alot :o) Then I gave him the card that Jared made for him when he found out John was sick. (Get out the hankie, this will almost make you cry!) I told John that Jared had made the card himself, and bless his little heart, he's just learning to write his letters, but he wrote on it: "To John" then a little heart in the middle (for Love) then, "Jared" at the bottom. On the inside he'd written: "I love you" and "Get Well" at the bottom. All this was done squiggly wiggly in crayon, yet you could read it. Jared had also pulled his favorite stickers off one of his Tonka trucks and stuck them on it, and then just basically doodled and stamped all over it, hehe. It was a true labor of love, I'd say, and John said that it was a great thing for him to do, and seemed to really and truly like it. The tear jerking part comes next, though. I handed John a gift from Jared. Something that Jared had brought to me right before I left for the show and told me to give to John. I was surprised at what it was, and almost didnt agree to take it for fear that Jared would regret it later, but he insisted. I handed John a little, beat up, nicked up, black GTO HotWheel car that has been Jared's very favorite forever. He'd gotten it for his first birthday, and has often carried it in his pants pockets and slept with it. It must have cost him a great deal to part with it, because he looked kind of solemn when he told me to give it to John, but he insisted that I should, because he was certain that it would make John feel better. When I handed it to John and explained all that to him, this look passed over his face that was indescribable. He looked up at me and I could tell he was touched. Then he smiled this quiet little half smile, rolled the little car back and forth on his hand for a second, then turned it over and looked at it from all sides, commented that it was a GTO, and grinned. That's all he said, though, which puzzled me, then I thought that maybe I'd been wrong, that maybe he wasn't touched after all, that he was just amused at getting a little junky toy from a little 4 year old kid. He thanked me for the nail polish and photograph, and I told him that it was just my way of saying thanks for him being so good to my son. I told him everybody in our whole town knows how nice they are! And he laughed After that, I put my arm around him (his hands were full) and my sister took a picture of us, then I got one of her with him too. (When the pics were developed, John isnt looking at the camera for that one, he's still looking at the little Hot Wheel and Jared's homemade card in his hand) He talked to us for a moment longer, still making no mention whatsoever about the little car, even though he'd thanked me for everything else. But when he left us to go inside, he suddenly stopped and turned to me in the doorway. Held that little car up in his fist, in a grip so tight his knuckles were white, and said in a voice surprisingly fierce, "You tell him (meaning Jared) that I said thank you VERY much for this, and that I will hang on to it and NEVER let ANYTHING happen to it" I told him I would, watched as he slipped it into his pants pocket, then disappeared inside. Oh, I could have just bawled like a baby! And something made me feel (even my sister commented on it) that John had felt like doing the same. It was a priceless moment, one I'll never forget. While I was trying to decide if I was going to cry or not, Mike came back out with some envelopes in his hand. He grinned at us and asked if we knew where he could find a mail box. I reminded him that we werent from Louisville, so we wouldnt know, but surely there would be one on almost every corner since we were right downtown. He told us to wish him luck, that if he didnt show up for the show to tell everyone he was lost on the streets of downtown Louisville, lol, then he headed off down the alley :o) Well, shortly after that, one of the security guys that had been so nice to us, came out said his supervisor had just came in and had asked what we were doing there in the alley. He said it would probably be best if we went ahead and left. So, we headed to where the tour buses were parked, and waited right next to them for Nathan and Robby. While we were waiting, this older fellow, who was security, came over and asked us what we were doing, and I told him that we were waiting to catch the guys, and that we'd already seen Mike and John. He smiled and said he'd been with them all day and that they seemed like really nice boys. I agreed wholeheartedly and told him about our experience at Morehead. He thought it was really cool, and after I told him that I was there on a "Thank You Mission", he said he understood and said he'd let us wait by the buses as long as we needed to. He was really nice! A few minutes later, around the corner came Nathan :o) After he'd signed Jared's guitar at Morehead, and was so nice to us, telling us about his little girl and stuff, I felt really guilty for not bringing him anything. So, this time, I'd gotten him a gift. An unusual one. As he got closer, I called to him and he came over. He didnt recognize me 'til I told him I was Jared's mom, and then a big grin broke out on his face. I told him that I'd felt really bad about not getting him anything at Morehead, so I'd brought him something this time. His face lit up. Until I told him that what I'd brought was not exactly for HIM. He looked a little confused, but curious. As I placed a book in his hands, a book called '20th Century Treasury of Children's Stories', I explained to him that I remembered him telling us that he had a 2 year old little girl, and that I'd gotten him the book in hopes that he would take the time to sit with her and read to her as I've always done with Jared. He LOVED it!!!! As soon as I laid it in his hands, the man went crazy! He was oooohing and aaaaahing and flipping pages and pointing at the artwork. He was ecstatic! More excited than I ever dreamed he'd be. As it was a compilation book, with everything from Curious George to Madeline to The Star Bellied Sneeches; over 30 books with the original artwork, Nathan was absolutely tickled! I've NEVER seen anyone get so excited about a book before! He was pointing out all this stuff, commenting that this one or that one was a favorite author/artist, he was truly happy. :o) Which made ME happy, because I'd sort of had my doubts about giving the book to him in the first place, but now I KNOW I made the right choice!! As I was watching Nathan and getting a kick out of him with his book, he suddenly held it up and yelled down the street! "Hey! Look what I just got!" And here came John and Mr. Dirty Toes himself! (pardon the expression, but Jared kindly pointed that fact out to Robby when we met them at Morehead, hehe) Robby had a smile on his face. (and shock of all shocks...SHOES on his feet!) John had his things that we'd given him in his hands, grinned, waved, and headed on into the bus. He really looked sick and very tired :o( Nathan pulled Robby over to look at the book before I could even say anything! hehe Robby checked it out for a moment, then looked up at me and I told him who I was, gave him my usual identity- "I'm Jared's mom" He said "Cool! Good to see you again!" and grinned huge! I asked him what he thought about Jared's video, and he just started saying how cool he thought it was, how they were forever confused by how I got them AND Jared into the same video (I shot Jared playing beside a large mirror that reflected the guys playing the HRL show on the big screen tv on the opposite side of the room, fyi) He said they were all tripping because the video showed them playing left handed, and they are all righties, hehehe Really screwed them up! They finally figured out how it was done, and thought it was cool. I told Robby that I'd gotten him a gift, something guaranteed that he would like and use! He looked like a little kid, got that excited expression that a child does when they know they are going to get a surprise. He's so darned cute! I got him a mousepad for his computer that you can put your own picture inside of. I showed him that I'd already put a picture of him and Jared together in it, but got it mainly because I thought he might like to put in a picture of his family. I thought it might help him when he gets to missing them while he's on the road. He loved it! I also presented him (because he and I have a mutual friend that has him on e-mail, and I had asked this person to contact Robby and make sure it was ok) with 2 homemade Rum Cakes, that are a specialty of mine. Well, with John being sick and the guys off the road for a few days, Robby hadnt checked any of his e-mails, so he didnt know I was bringing the cakes. After not hearing anything back from our mutual friend, I decided to take a risk and bake them anyway, hoping like hell that they would accept them, after having remembered me from Morehead. Robby looked surprised that I'd done such a thing, and I told him that I would understand completely if he felt they couldnt accept them, that I'd known I was taking a risk in bringing them. He said no, that it was fine, that it was just great of me to do it for them, and thanked me profusely. He kept saying that he couldnt believe I had taken the time to BAKE something for THEM! He set the cakes down on the sidewalk then gave me a full frontal hug and kissed me on the cheek! :o) Another priceless moment!! Then I had my sister take a picture of me standing between Robby and Nathan (Who had to be got up off the sidewalk, lol! While Robby and I were talking, Nathan had sat down on the sidewalk, leaned up against the building, and was flipping through the book, pointing out "Curious George to my sister!) Robby signed my sister's COA cd liner, and drew her a little GOO :o) Then he noticed the canned food we'd brought, and told us that the fans had donated 50,000 cans to date! He seemed really proud about it. (and should be!) As it was 7pm, everyone had to go!! We had to get inside, and they had to get dressed!! Nathan and Robby thanked me again, Nathan told me once more how much he totally loved the book, then they told us goodbye and that they'd see us in a little while. We started heading for the front gate. We were in a hurry because the gates had been open for over a half hour and we were certain we were too late to ANYWHERE near the front, as this show was Gen. Admn. Before we could make it past the tour buses, the security fellow that had let us remain by the buses came over and started talking to us again because he'd seen our exchange with the guys and just thought it was fabulous. He started telling us about some of the shows he had worked over the years, and I got a sinking feeling because I didnt want to be rude and cut him off, but our chances of getting good spots for the show were gone. It was 15 minutes til show time. At the first opportunity, I told him we were sorry to go but we HAD to get inside. He looked at his watch, and I could tell by his face that he knew he'd been holding us up and that it was LATE. I told him we'd probably screwed up by waiting around so long to see the guys, but it was definately worth it, but now we would NEVER find a good view of the stage on the floor like we wanted. He struggled with himself for a second, came to a mental decision, and told us to follow him! He took us back around to the dressing room doors where we'd met Mike and John earlier, took us in, through that room, down a hallway passing us right by a whole crew of security, telling them it was ok, that we were with him! I couldnt believe it when we found ourselves entering the arena from behind the security barriers! He introduced us to his son, who also worked there, told him to take care of our extra stuff (gift bags, canned food, etc) and to show us where we could pick them up after the show. He then walked us out to the front barrier, opened a gate, and let us out right in front of the stage! We thanked him, and then I remembered our tickets in my pocket. I handed them to him and asked him if he would take them out front and give them to someone outside that didnt have tickets. I mean, I'd already paid for them, so SOMEBODY should get to use them! lol He grinned and said he would, told us to have a blast and enjoy ourselves. A really really cool guy!! The next thing we did was go around to the other side of the stage, on John's side, because we just couldnt see anything on our side (Robby's) but huge speakers on the stage. We were too far out on the edge of the crowd. My aunt and cousin were to meet us at the show, (yes, I'm determined to convert EVERYONE to Goo, lol!) and we got lucky enough to find them on our way around. They joined us, and we managed to work our way to just left of John's mic stand, and were in the second and third rows, so we could see. I didnt care for Frog Pond, the opening band (which John later told us was "An ass whuppin that you deserved for acting so wild" hehe). Fastball was pretty good, they were fun. I knew we were in trouble as soon as the opening bands started playing, because during the short time they were on, already about 15 people were crowd surfing. I'd never been in a mosh pit before and it got really really ugly! (My aunt almost got into a fist fight! ugh!) By the time the guys came on, it was terrible! My poor sister got a whole glass of Pepsi dumped on her head, in her face as soon as Dizzy opened! My cousin Ashley had to leave to go sit in the stands because she was getting too hot and light headed, so my aunt left with her. My sister and I remained, and she was almost crying from the Pepsi in her eyes. She took it pretty well, other than her eyes burning for a long time, but I was scared to death she'd hate me for bringing her!! (she'd never been to a concert before) I wont go into anymore detail about how bad it got, but I will say that John stopped the music dead right in the middle of Naked and told everybody to calm down. He also offered some guy his money back. Apparently the guy was fighting (I couldnt see) and John was pissed about it. He sang incredibly well, much better than I was expecting when I had talked to him earlier. He worked the crowd alot (and was still wearing that silly hat, btw!), but didnt carry on his verbal nonsense like he did at Morehead. He did tell everyone that the doctors had said he'd "F*cked up" his throat, but then laughed and said they'd told him he was ugly too! He was in a playful mood, and made a few short jokes, but all in all, you could tell he wasnt cutting loose like normal. Singing wise, he was as fabulous as ever, though. I did notice on Iris that on the chorus he took a different approach, bringing it down a bit, but it worked out great, and no one seemed to notice or mind. He did wonderful! I noticed him slipping off between songs to sip from a coffee mug sitting on one of the speakers. He had a water bottle as well (which he later tossed out to a girl standing directly in front of me) but he only drank from it once. So I assume whatever was in that coffee cup was medicinal for his throat. Robby was his usual bubbly, energetic self, playing with the crowd, working his own brand of magic. He played fabulously, and I noticed that he kept an eye on John, during almost every song, especially the vocally demanding choruses, Robby would get close to John and give him a look, kind of asking him silently with his eyes if he was ok. John would nod, Robby would grin, and they'd just rock together! They have great chemistry and the crowd eats it up! At the end of the show, John brought out this white guitar, and tried to smash it. It must have been one well made guitar, because he threw it 4 times across the stage (I dont know why he didnt just beat it on the floor) and it still didnt break apart. He finally shrugged and gave up. The whole show went well, and if I hadnt been stuck in the middle of a bunch of rude, shoving, pushing, pulling people, I would have enjoyed it. It was definately NOT an equal to Morehead! After the show, the guitar tech that remembered me from Morehead, the one who we had talked to earlier by the dressing room doors, he saw me, grinned, came over to the edge of the stage, and tried to toss me a guitar pick. One went over my head and someone else got it, and 2 landed on the floor in front of me, behind the barrier, and the security guard picked them up and gave one to someone else and stuck the other in his own pocket, although the tech was trying to tell him that they'd been intended for me. I gave up, told him thanks for trying, then went off to find my stuff backstage. We still had to put our canned goods in the box out front, so we came back through the arena, and I saw the guitar tech again on the stage. I went over to tell him goodbye, and thanked him for telling the guys I was outside earlier. I started for the door and got half way across the floor before he yelled for me. I turned and he motioned for me to come back. I did, and he dug into his pocket and pulled out 2 brand new picks, and handed one to me and one to my sister. :o) We were surprised and thanked him a bunch! I have just a few pics that we took with the guys before the show (my sister didnt snap away like my hubby did at Morehead, unfortunately) and then I have 3 rolls that I took inside during the show. I hope they'll all turn out well, I'll let you know. I guess my reason for not wanting this review posted to the site is because it just seems too personal, you know? All my meetings with the guys directly related back to our meeting them at Morehead and their meeting with Jared. I dont know. I feel weird about it. Something about John's fierceness over that little beat up car, Nathan's utter delight with that children's book.....it's just too emotionally personal, something I dont want to sully by having all those little 12 year old girls on the GGDs and TTB lists that read it on your site e-mailing me and telling me how "awesome" or "waaaay cool" they think it is. It surpassed those terms. I truly think the guys were all touched by their gifts, and I was touched by their reactions. Somehow, to exploit that by allowing a thousand people to read it, it would be like sneaking a video camera into their homes during Christmas with their families, catching those special moments and emotions on video, and then selling copies of it out on the street corner. It would just cheapen it somehow. Does that sound crazy? There is also the food issue. I dont want 10,000 people suddenly trying to give them homemade food, which is potentially dangerous, and I dont think they'd go for that. For them to accept what I gave them was an exception, I'd say, and was only allowed because they'd met me before, and had had a memorable experience with my son. Well, Fay, you were the one person that I DID want to share this with. You've been very sweet to me in the past, giving me parenting advice and such, and I know you'll get what I'm saying. It was a very special, very precious, very priceless time for me, and for the guys as well, I think. (I hope!) Sorry it's sooooo long again, but I'm a writer in my spare time, so it comes easy to me, hehe I hope you'll enjoy it and savor it too. :o) Let me know what you think Ever Your Friend, Lisa Miller Agoostic#3 (Lisa) *Everybody stop yelling!.....You all see that little fellow right there? In the middle of the crowd? With his guitar in the air?.....That little guy is trying to take my job!!!* ~John Rzeznik, referring to my son, Jared, at Morehead, Ky. *Yeah! Absolutely. It sits on my amp every night when I play* ~John Rzeznik's answer when asked on Yahoo Chat if he still has the little black GTO Hot Wheel car that my son gave him in May.

No offense, but I think you'll understand after you read it. Here goes.... :o) My sister and I arrived at Louisville Gardens at almost 6pm. As we'd driven 50 miles to get there, and had had a late start getting on the road, I was afraid that we'd blown our chance to catch the guys, as the main gate would open at 6:30 and the show start at 7:30. We immediately headed for the back of the building, in hopes of finding the tour buses parked there. No buses in sight! So, we started walking down the alley that runs behind the building, and find there's a wine colored van blocking our path. I realized then that the van was pulled up to the back doors of the building, and there's a sign taped on one of the open doors that says "Goo Goo Doll Dressing Rooms" I knew we'd come to the right place! So, we sat down, smiled at the handful of people that were milling about, in and out of those doors. A few minutes later, a guy that I recognized from the Morehead show, one of the Goo guitar techs, came outside. I told him who I was, and that I'd met the guys at Morehead, and mentioned Jared. As soon as I said something about Jared, his face lit up and he remembered exactly who I was. He grinned and said he'd go and get one of the guys to come out. :o) A second later, Mike strolled out the door, saw us and came over. I told him that I had another gift for him, one that I had originally planned to get him, but couldnt find, so instead had gotten him the Wildcat T-shirt that I ended up giving him at Morehead. (I'd mentioned to him at Morehead that I'd been trying to find him a Wildcat golf club head cover, but hadnt had any luck, hence the T-shirt) So I pulled out a whole set of Wildcat blue and white golf club head covers, and he grinned really big. He thanked me and said that he wore the T-shirt I'd given him at Morehead all the time. :o) Then he said that he does enjoy a good game of golf when he's not on the road, and that now he could wear his UK t-shirt to the golf course and he'd match his golf gear, hehehe I asked him what he thought about Jared's video tape that we'd given them at Morehead, and he grinned really big and said he thought it was just great and that they watch it almost every night! That just made me sooooo happy and proud! I could hardly believe it! :o) I took a picture of him with my sister, and he talked to us for a few minutes longer about where we live, Louisville itself, and then he thanked me for the golf club head covers. I told him NO, the golf club covers had been my way of thanking HIM for being so good to my son in Morehead. He grinned again, thanked me anyway, then said he hated to go but he had to get some things done before show time. He didnt seem nearly so shy this time, and my sister commented on how sweet he is. I told her to be prepared, cause every single one of them are just as sweet!! :o) While we'd been talking to Mike, John had slipped by us. I saw him as he was walking away from us, down the alley, towards where the buses were parked on the opposite side of the building from where I had parked. All I saw was a pair of baggy olive green cargo pants, and some strange thing on his head that looked like a floppy, tan colored cowboy hat that had seen better days, hehehe I knew he'd have to come back into the building, so we didnt follow him (I think it's bad form to follow someone around) So, we sat there and waited, hoping perhaps Nathan or Robby would come out in the meantime. Well, it wasnt long before John came back up the alley, and when he saw us, I stood and told him he was just the man I wanted to see. He smiled and I could tell he knew he'd seen me before but couldnt place me. So instead of introducing myself, I asked him to tell me what he thought of my "little Goo head"s video tape, and then it clicked with him. He smiled really big and said he thought it was just great! Unfortunately, I didnt give him time to elaborate, not once I heard him speak. His voice was very quiet, just above a whisper, not at all like he carried on at Morehead. I looked at him seriously and told him that he didnt sound too good. He rolled his eyes a bit, then he grinned and said that he'd be alright, that the doctors had just told him to take it easy. I told him that I really wished he'd just go home and get well. He looked surprised that I would say that, then he looked a little sad and said that he couldn't go home, that they'd already cancelled some shows, and that he just couldnt. I felt really bad for him. To keep things light, and to prevent myself from doing my usual mothering and pecking at him any further, I told him I'd brought him a few things and he smiled. I gave him an 8x10 enlargement of a picture of him and Jared together. The one where they are sharing a laugh and have the eye contact thing going on. The one where Jared had just asked if he could play on stage with him at Morehead and then proceeded to tell John that he wanted to "Rock with the Goos!" I told him I thought it might make a nice keepsake for him, and John smiled, held it up to get a better look, and just grinned. Then I gave him a bottle of UK blue nail polish (I never thought I'd EVER give nail polish to a man! hehe) and he thought that was pretty cool. I told him I didnt get him alot this time because I'd gotten him the double cd set at Morehead, and I asked him how he liked it. He said it was great, that he'd listened to it alot :o) Then I gave him the card that Jared made for him when he found out John was sick. (Get out the hankie, this will almost make you cry!) I told John that Jared had made the card himself, and bless his little heart, he's just learning to write his letters, but he wrote on it: "To John" then a little heart in the middle (for Love) then, "Jared" at the bottom. On the inside he'd written: "I love you" and "Get Well" at the bottom. All this was done squiggly wiggly in crayon, yet you could read it. Jared had also pulled his favorite stickers off one of his Tonka trucks and stuck them on it, and then just basically doodled and stamped all over it, hehe. It was a true labor of love, I'd say, and John said that it was a great thing for him to do, and seemed to really and truly like it. The tear jerking part comes next, though. I handed John a gift from Jared. Something that Jared had brought to me right before I left for the show and told me to give to John. I was surprised at what it was, and almost didnt agree to take it for fear that Jared would regret it later, but he insisted. I handed John a little, beat up, nicked up, black GTO HotWheel car that has been Jared's very favorite forever. He'd gotten it for his first birthday, and has often carried it in his pants pockets and slept with it. It must have cost him a great deal to part with it, because he looked kind of solemn when he told me to give it to John, but he insisted that I should, because he was certain that it would make John feel better. When I handed it to John and explained all that to him, this look passed over his face that was indescribable. He looked up at me and I could tell he was touched. Then he smiled this quiet little half smile, rolled the little car back and forth on his hand for a second, then turned it over and looked at it from all sides, commented that it was a GTO, and grinned. That's all he said, though, which puzzled me, then I thought that maybe I'd been wrong, that maybe he wasn't touched after all, that he was just amused at getting a little junky toy from a little 4 year old kid. He thanked me for the nail polish and photograph, and I told him that it was just my way of saying thanks for him being so good to my son. I told him everybody in our whole town knows how nice they are! And he laughed After that, I put my arm around him (his hands were full) and my sister took a picture of us, then I got one of her with him too. (When the pics were developed, John isnt looking at the camera for that one, he's still looking at the little Hot Wheel and Jared's homemade card in his hand) He talked to us for a moment longer, still making no mention whatsoever about the little car, even though he'd thanked me for everything else. But when he left us to go inside, he suddenly stopped and turned to me in the doorway. Held that little car up in his fist, in a grip so tight his knuckles were white, and said in a voice surprisingly fierce, "You tell him (meaning Jared) that I said thank you VERY much for this, and that I will hang on to it and NEVER let ANYTHING happen to it" I told him I would, watched as he slipped it into his pants pocket, then disappeared inside. Oh, I could have just bawled like a baby! And something made me feel (even my sister commented on it) that John had felt like doing the same. It was a priceless moment, one I'll never forget. While I was trying to decide if I was going to cry or not, Mike came back out with some envelopes in his hand. He grinned at us and asked if we knew where he could find a mail box. I reminded him that we werent from Louisville, so we wouldnt know, but surely there would be one on almost every corner since we were right downtown. He told us to wish him luck, that if he didnt show up for the show to tell everyone he was lost on the streets of downtown Louisville, lol, then he headed off down the alley :o) Well, shortly after that, one of the security guys that had been so nice to us, came out said his supervisor had just came in and had asked what we were doing there in the alley. He said it would probably be best if we went ahead and left. So, we headed to where the tour buses were parked, and waited right next to them for Nathan and Robby. While we were waiting, this older fellow, who was security, came over and asked us what we were doing, and I told him that we were waiting to catch the guys, and that we'd already seen Mike and John. He smiled and said he'd been with them all day and that they seemed like really nice boys. I agreed wholeheartedly and told him about our experience at Morehead. He thought it was really cool, and after I told him that I was there on a "Thank You Mission", he said he understood and said he'd let us wait by the buses as long as we needed to. He was really nice! A few minutes later, around the corner came Nathan :o) After he'd signed Jared's guitar at Morehead, and was so nice to us, telling us about his little girl and stuff, I felt really guilty for not bringing him anything. So, this time, I'd gotten him a gift. An unusual one. As he got closer, I called to him and he came over. He didnt recognize me 'til I told him I was Jared's mom, and then a big grin broke out on his face. I told him that I'd felt really bad about not getting him anything at Morehead, so I'd brought him something this time. His face lit up. Until I told him that what I'd brought was not exactly for HIM. He looked a little confused, but curious. As I placed a book in his hands, a book called '20th Century Treasury of Children's Stories', I explained to him that I remembered him telling us that he had a 2 year old little girl, and that I'd gotten him the book in hopes that he would take the time to sit with her and read to her as I've always done with Jared. He LOVED it!!!! As soon as I laid it in his hands, the man went crazy! He was oooohing and aaaaahing and flipping pages and pointing at the artwork. He was ecstatic! More excited than I ever dreamed he'd be. As it was a compilation book, with everything from Curious George to Madeline to The Star Bellied Sneeches; over 30 books with the original artwork, Nathan was absolutely tickled! I've NEVER seen anyone get so excited about a book before!

As I was watching Nathan and getting a kick out of him with his book, he suddenly held it up and yelled down the street! "Hey! Look what I just got!" And here came John and Mr. Dirty Toes himself! (pardon the expression, but Jared kindly pointed that fact out to Robby when we met them at Morehead, hehe) Robby had a smile on his face. (and shock of all shocks...SHOES on his feet!) John had his things that we'd given him in his hands, grinned, waved, and headed on into the bus. He really looked sick and very tired :o( Nathan pulled Robby over to look at the book before I could even say anything! hehe Robby checked it out for a moment, then looked up at me and I told him who I was, gave him my usual identity- "I'm Jared's mom" He said "Cool! Good to see you again!" and grinned huge! I asked him what he thought about Jared's video, and he just started saying how cool he thought it was, how they were forever confused by how I got them AND Jared into the same video (I shot Jared playing beside a large mirror that reflected the guys playing the HRL show on the big screen tv on the opposite side of the room, fyi) He said they were all tripping because the video showed them playing left handed, and they are all righties, hehehe Really screwed them up! They finally figured out how it was done, and thought it was cool. I told Robby that I'd gotten him a gift, something guaranteed that he would like and use! He looked like a little kid, got that excited expression that a child does when they know they are going to get a surprise. He's so darned cute! I got him a mousepad for his computer that you can put your own picture inside of. I showed him that I'd already put a picture of him and Jared together in it, but got it mainly because I thought he might like to put in a picture of his family. I thought it might help him when he gets to missing them while he's on the road. He loved it! I also presented him (because he and I have a mutual friend that has him on e-mail, and I had asked this person to contact Robby and make sure it was ok) with 2 homemade Rum Cakes, that are a specialty of mine. Well, with John being sick and the guys off the road for a few days, Robby hadnt checked any of his e-mails, so he didnt know I was bringing the cakes. After not hearing anything back from our mutual friend, I decided to take a risk and bake them anyway, hoping like hell that they would accept them, after having remembered me from Morehead.

He said no, that it was fine, that it was just great of me to do it for them, and thanked me profusely. He kept saying that he couldnt believe I had taken the time to BAKE something for THEM! He set the cakes down on the sidewalk then gave me a full frontal hug and kissed me on the cheek! :o) Another priceless moment!! Then I had my sister take a picture of me standing between Robby and Nathan (Who had to be got up off the sidewalk, lol! While Robby and I were talking, Nathan had sat down on the sidewalk, leaned up against the building, and was flipping through the book, pointing out "Curious George to my sister!) Robby signed my sister's COA cd liner, and drew her a little GOO :o) Then he noticed the canned food we'd brought, and told us that the fans had donated 50,000 cans to date! He seemed really proud about it. (and should be!) As it was 7pm, everyone had to go!! We had to get inside, and they had to get dressed!! Nathan and Robby thanked me again, Nathan told me once more how much he totally loved the book, then they told us goodbye and that they'd see us in a little while. We started heading for the front gate. We were in a hurry because the gates had been open for over a half hour and we were certain we were too late to ANYWHERE near the front, as this show was Gen. Admn. Before we could make it past the tour buses, the security fellow that had let us remain by the buses came over and started talking to us again because he'd seen our exchange with the guys and just thought it was fabulous. He started telling us about some of the shows he had worked over the years, and I got a sinking feeling because I didnt want to be rude and cut him off, but our chances of getting good spots for the show were gone. It was 15 minutes til show time. At the first opportunity, I told him we were sorry to go but we HAD to get inside. He looked at his watch, and I could tell by his face that he knew he'd been holding us up and that it was LATE. I told him we'd probably screwed up by waiting around so long to see the guys, but it was definately worth it, but now we would NEVER find a good view of the stage on the floor like we wanted. He struggled with himself for a second, came to a mental decision, and told us to follow him! He took us back around to the dressing room doors where we'd met Mike and John earlier, took us in, through that room, down a hallway passing us right by a whole crew of security, telling them it was ok, that we were with him! I couldnt believe it when we found ourselves entering the arena from behind the security barriers! He introduced us to his son, who also worked there, told him to take care of our extra stuff (gift bags, canned food, etc) and to show us where we could pick them up after the show. He then walked us out to the front barrier, opened a gate, and let us out right in front of the stage! We thanked him, and then I remembered our tickets in my pocket. I handed them to him and asked him if he would take them out front and give them to someone outside that didnt have tickets. I mean, I'd already paid for them, so SOMEBODY should get to use them! lol He grinned and said he would, told us to have a blast and enjoy ourselves. A really really cool guy!! The next thing we did was go around to the other side of the stage, on John's side, because we just couldnt see anything on our side (Robby's) but huge speakers on the stage. We were too far out on the edge of the crowd. My aunt and cousin were to meet us at the show, (yes, I'm determined to convert EVERYONE to Goo, lol!) and we got lucky enough to find them on our way around. They joined us, and we managed to work our way to just left of John's mic stand, and were in the second and third rows, so we could see. I didnt care for Frog Pond, the opening band (which John later told us was "An ass whuppin that you deserved for acting so wild" hehe). Fastball was pretty good, they were fun. I knew we were in trouble as soon as the opening bands started playing, because during the short time they were on, already about 15 people were crowd surfing. I'd never been in a mosh pit before and it got really really ugly! (My aunt almost got into a fist fight! ugh!) By the time the guys came on, it was terrible! My poor sister got a whole glass of Pepsi dumped on her head, in her face as soon as Dizzy opened! My cousin Ashley had to leave to go sit in the stands because she was getting too hot and light headed, so my aunt left with her. My sister and I remained, and she was almost crying from the Pepsi in her eyes. She took it pretty well, other than her eyes burning for a long time, but I was scared to death she'd hate me for bringing her!! (she'd never been to a concert before) I wont go into anymore detail about how bad it got, but I will say that John stopped the music dead right in the middle of Naked and told everybody to calm down. He also offered some guy his money back. Apparently the guy was fighting (I couldnt see) and John was pissed about it. He sang incredibly well, much better than I was expecting when I had talked to him earlier. He worked the crowd alot (and was still wearing that silly hat, btw!), but didnt carry on his verbal nonsense like he did at Morehead. He did tell everyone that the doctors had said he'd "F*cked up" his throat, but then laughed and said they'd told him he was ugly too! He was in a playful mood, and made a few short jokes, but all in all, you could tell he wasnt cutting loose like normal. Singing wise, he was as fabulous as ever, though. I did notice on Iris that on the chorus he took a different approach, bringing it down a bit, but it worked out great, and no one seemed to notice or mind. He did wonderful! I noticed him slipping off between songs to sip from a coffee mug sitting on one of the speakers. He had a water bottle as well (which he later tossed out to a girl standing directly in front of me) but he only drank from it once. So I assume whatever was in that coffee cup was medicinal for his throat. Robby was his usual bubbly, energetic self, playing with the crowd, working his own brand of magic. He played fabulously, and I noticed that he kept an eye on John, during almost every song, especially the vocally demanding choruses, Robby would get close to John and give him a look, kind of asking him silently with his eyes if he was ok. John would nod, Robby would grin, and they'd just rock together! They have great chemistry and the crowd eats it up! At the end of the show, John brought out this white guitar, and tried to smash it. It must have been one well made guitar, because he threw it 4 times across the stage (I dont know why he didnt just beat it on the floor) and it still didnt break apart. He finally shrugged and gave up. The whole show went well, and if I hadnt been stuck in the middle of a bunch of rude, shoving, pushing, pulling people, I would have enjoyed it. It was definately NOT an equal to Morehead! After the show, the guitar tech that remembered me from Morehead, the one who we had talked to earlier by the dressing room doors, he saw me, grinned, came over to the edge of the stage, and tried to toss me a guitar pick. One went over my head and someone else got it, and 2 landed on the floor in front of me, behind the barrier, and the security guard picked them up and gave one to someone else and stuck the other in his own pocket, although the tech was trying to tell him that they'd been intended for me. I gave up, told him thanks for trying, then went off to find my stuff backstage. We still had to put our canned goods in the box out front, so we came back through the arena, and I saw the guitar tech again on the stage. I went over to tell him goodbye, and thanked him for telling the guys I was outside earlier. I started for the door and got half way across the floor before he yelled for me. I turned and he motioned for me to come back. I did, and he dug into his pocket and pulled out 2 brand new picks, and handed one to me and one to my sister. :o) We were surprised and thanked him a bunch! I have just a few pics that we took with the guys before the show (my sister didnt snap away like my hubby did at Morehead, unfortunately) and then I have 3 rolls that I took inside during the show. I hope they'll all turn out well, I'll let you know. I guess my reason for not wanting this review posted to the site is because it just seems too personal, you know? All my meetings with the guys directly related back to our meeting them at Morehead and their meeting with Jared. I dont know. I feel weird about it. Something about John's fierceness over that little beat up car, Nathan's utter delight with that children's book.....it's just too emotionally personal, something I dont want to sully by having all those little 12 year old girls on the GGDs and TTB lists that read it on your site e-mailing me and telling me how "awesome" or "waaaay cool" they think it is. It surpassed those terms. I truly think the guys were all touched by their gifts, and I was touched by their reactions. Somehow, to exploit that by allowing a thousand people to read it, it would be like sneaking a video camera into their homes during Christmas with their families, catching those special moments and emotions on video, and then selling copies of it out on the street corner. It would just cheapen it somehow. Does that sound crazy? There is also the food issue. I dont want 10,000 people suddenly trying to give them homemade food, which is potentially dangerous, and I dont think they'd go for that. For them to accept what I gave them was an exception, I'd say, and was only allowed because they'd met me before, and had had a memorable experience with my son. Well, Fay, you were the one person that I DID want to share this with. You've been very sweet to me in the past, giving me parenting advice and such, and I know you'll get what I'm saying. It was a very special, very precious, very priceless time for me, and for the guys as well, I think. (I hope!) Sorry it's sooooo long again, but I'm a writer in my spare time, so it comes easy to me, hehe I hope you'll enjoy it and savor it too. :o) Let me know what you think Ever Your Friend, Lisa Miller Agoostic#3 (Lisa) *Everybody stop yelling!.....You all see that little fellow right there? In the middle of the crowd? With his guitar in the air?.....That little guy is trying to take my job!!!* ~John Rzeznik, referring to my son, Jared, at Morehead, Ky. *Yeah! Absolutely. It sits on my amp every night when I play* ~John Rzeznik's answer when asked on Yahoo Chat if he still has the little black GTO Hot Wheel car that my son gave him in May.

No offense, but I think you'll understand after you read it. Here goes.... :o) My sister and I arrived at Louisville Gardens at almost 6pm. As we'd driven 50 miles to get there, and had had a late start getting on the road, I was afraid that we'd blown our chance to catch the guys, as the main gate would open at 6:30 and the show start at 7:30. We immediately headed for the back of the building, in hopes of finding the tour buses parked there. No buses in sight! So, we started walking down the alley that runs behind the building, and find there's a wine colored van blocking our path. I realized then that the van was pulled up to the back doors of the building, and there's a sign taped on one of the open doors that says "Goo Goo Doll Dressing Rooms" I knew we'd come to the right place! So, we sat down, smiled at the handful of people that were milling about, in and out of those doors. A few minutes later, a guy that I recognized from the Morehead show, one of the Goo guitar techs, came outside. I told him who I was, and that I'd met the guys at Morehead, and mentioned Jared. As soon as I said something about Jared, his face lit up and he remembered exactly who I was. He grinned and said he'd go and get one of the guys to come out. :o) A second later, Mike strolled out the door, saw us and came over. I told him that I had another gift for him, one that I had originally planned to get him, but couldnt find, so instead had gotten him the Wildcat T-shirt that I ended up giving him at Morehead. (I'd mentioned to him at Morehead that I'd been trying to find him a Wildcat golf club head cover, but hadnt had any luck, hence the T-shirt) So I pulled out a whole set of Wildcat blue and white golf club head covers, and he grinned really big. He thanked me and said that he wore the T-shirt I'd given him at Morehead all the time. :o) Then he said that he does enjoy a good game of golf when he's not on the road, and that now he could wear his UK t-shirt to the golf course and he'd match his golf gear, hehehe I asked him what he thought about Jared's video tape that we'd given them at Morehead, and he grinned really big and said he thought it was just great and that they watch it almost every night! That just made me sooooo happy and proud! I could hardly believe it! :o) I took a picture of him with my sister, and he talked to us for a few minutes longer about where we live, Louisville itself, and then he thanked me for the golf club head covers. I told him NO, the golf club covers had been my way of thanking HIM for being so good to my son in Morehead. He grinned again, thanked me anyway, then said he hated to go but he had to get some things done before show time. He didnt seem nearly so shy this time, and my sister commented on how sweet he is. I told her to be prepared, cause every single one of them are just as sweet!! :o) While we'd been talking to Mike, John had slipped by us. I saw him as he was walking away from us, down the alley, towards where the buses were parked on the opposite side of the building from where I had parked. All I saw was a pair of baggy olive green cargo pants, and some strange thing on his head that looked like a floppy, tan colored cowboy hat that had seen better days, hehehe I knew he'd have to come back into the building, so we didnt follow him (I think it's bad form to follow someone around) So, we sat there and waited, hoping perhaps Nathan or Robby would come out in the meantime. Well, it wasnt long before John came back up the alley, and when he saw us, I stood and told him he was just the man I wanted to see. He smiled and I could tell he knew he'd seen me before but couldnt place me. So instead of introducing myself, I asked him to tell me what he thought of my "little Goo head"s video tape, and then it clicked with him. He smiled really big and said he thought it was just great! Unfortunately, I didnt give him time to elaborate, not once I heard him speak. His voice was very quiet, just above a whisper, not at all like he carried on at Morehead. I looked at him seriously and told him that he didnt sound too good. He rolled his eyes a bit, then he grinned and said that he'd be alright, that the doctors had just told him to take it easy. I told him that I really wished he'd just go home and get well. He looked surprised that I would say that, then he looked a little sad and said that he couldn't go home, that they'd already cancelled some shows, and that he just couldnt. I felt really bad for him. To keep things light, and to prevent myself from doing my usual mothering and pecking at him any further, I told him I'd brought him a few things and he smiled. I gave him an 8x10 enlargement of a picture of him and Jared together. The one where they are sharing a laugh and have the eye contact thing going on. The one where Jared had just asked if he could play on stage with him at Morehead and then proceeded to tell John that he wanted to "Rock with the Goos!" I told him I thought it might make a nice keepsake for him, and John smiled, held it up to get a better look, and just grinned. Then I gave him a bottle of UK blue nail polish (I never thought I'd EVER give nail polish to a man! hehe) and he thought that was pretty cool. I told him I didnt get him alot this time because I'd gotten him the double cd set at Morehead, and I asked him how he liked it. He said it was great, that he'd listened to it alot :o) Then I gave him the card that Jared made for him when he found out John was sick. (Get out the hankie, this will almost make you cry!) I told John that Jared had made the card himself, and bless his little heart, he's just learning to write his letters, but he wrote on it: "To John" then a little heart in the middle (for Love) then, "Jared" at the bottom. On the inside he'd written: "I love you" and "Get Well" at the bottom. All this was done squiggly wiggly in crayon, yet you could read it. Jared had also pulled his favorite stickers off one of his Tonka trucks and stuck them on it, and then just basically doodled and stamped all over it, hehe. It was a true labor of love, I'd say, and John said that it was a great thing for him to do, and seemed to really and truly like it. The tear jerking part comes next, though. I handed John a gift from Jared. Something that Jared had brought to me right before I left for the show and told me to give to John. I was surprised at what it was, and almost didnt agree to take it for fear that Jared would regret it later, but he insisted. I handed John a little, beat up, nicked up, black GTO HotWheel car that has been Jared's very favorite forever. He'd gotten it for his first birthday, and has often carried it in his pants pockets and slept with it. It must have cost him a great deal to part with it, because he looked kind of solemn when he told me to give it to John, but he insisted that I should, because he was certain that it would make John feel better. When I handed it to John and explained all that to him, this look passed over his face that was indescribable. He looked up at me and I could tell he was touched. Then he smiled this quiet little half smile, rolled the little car back and forth on his hand for a second, then turned it over and looked at it from all sides, commented that it was a GTO, and grinned. That's all he said, though, which puzzled me, then I thought that maybe I'd been wrong, that maybe he wasn't touched after all, that he was just amused at getting a little junky toy from a little 4 year old kid. He thanked me for the nail polish and photograph, and I told him that it was just my way of saying thanks for him being so good to my son. I told him everybody in our whole town knows how nice they are! And he laughed After that, I put my arm around him (his hands were full) and my sister took a picture of us, then I got one of her with him too. (When the pics were developed, John isnt looking at the camera for that one, he's still looking at the little Hot Wheel and Jared's homemade card in his hand) He talked to us for a moment longer, still making no mention whatsoever about the little car, even though he'd thanked me for everything else. But when he left us to go inside, he suddenly stopped and turned to me in the doorway. Held that little car up in his fist, in a grip so tight his knuckles were white, and said in a voice surprisingly fierce, "You tell him (meaning Jared) that I said thank you VERY much for this, and that I will hang on to it and NEVER let ANYTHING happen to it" I told him I would, watched as he slipped it into his pants pocket, then disappeared inside. Oh, I could have just bawled like a baby! And something made me feel (even my sister commented on it) that John had felt like doing the same. It was a priceless moment, one I'll never forget. While I was trying to decide if I was going to cry or not, Mike came back out with some envelopes in his hand. He grinned at us and asked if we knew where he could find a mail box. I reminded him that we werent from Louisville, so we wouldnt know, but surely there would be one on almost every corner since we were right downtown. He told us to wish him luck, that if he didnt show up for the show to tell everyone he was lost on the streets of downtown Louisville, lol, then he headed off down the alley :o) Well, shortly after that, one of the security guys that had been so nice to us, came out said his supervisor had just came in and had asked what we were doing there in the alley. He said it would probably be best if we went ahead and left. So, we headed to where the tour buses were parked, and waited right next to them for Nathan and Robby. While we were waiting, this older fellow, who was security, came over and asked us what we were doing, and I told him that we were waiting to catch the guys, and that we'd already seen Mike and John. He smiled and said he'd been with them all day and that they seemed like really nice boys. I agreed wholeheartedly and told him about our experience at Morehead. He thought it was really cool, and after I told him that I was there on a "Thank You Mission", he said he understood and said he'd let us wait by the buses as long as we needed to. He was really nice! A few minutes later, around the corner came Nathan :o) After he'd signed Jared's guitar at Morehead, and was so nice to us, telling us about his little girl and stuff, I felt really guilty for not bringing him anything. So, this time, I'd gotten him a gift. An unusual one. As he got closer, I called to him and he came over. He didnt recognize me 'til I told him I was Jared's mom, and then a big grin broke out on his face. I told him that I'd felt really bad about not getting him anything at Morehead, so I'd brought him something this time. His face lit up. Until I told him that what I'd brought was not exactly for HIM. He looked a little confused, but curious. As I placed a book in his hands, a book called '20th Century Treasury of Children's Stories', I explained to him that I remembered him telling us that he had a 2 year old little girl, and that I'd gotten him the book in hopes that he would take the time to sit with her and read to her as I've always done with Jared. He LOVED it!!!! As soon as I laid it in his hands, the man went crazy! He was oooohing and aaaaahing and flipping pages and pointing at the artwork. He was ecstatic! More excited than I ever dreamed he'd be. As it was a compilation book, with everything from Curious George to Madeline to The Star Bellied Sneeches; over 30 books with the original artwork, Nathan was absolutely tickled! I've NEVER seen anyone get so excited about a book before! He was pointing out all this stuff, commenting that this one or that one was a favorite author/artist, he was truly happy. :o) Which made ME happy, because I'd sort of had my doubts about giving the book to him in the first place, but now I KNOW I made the right choice!! As I was watching Nathan and getting a kick out of him with his book, he suddenly held it up and yelled down the street! "Hey! Look what I just got!" And here came John and Mr. Dirty Toes himself! (pardon the expression, but Jared kindly pointed that fact out to Robby when we met them at Morehead, hehe) Robby had a smile on his face. (and shock of all shocks...SHOES on his feet!) John had his things that we'd given him in his hands, grinned, waved, and headed on into the bus. He really looked sick and very tired :o( Nathan pulled Robby over to look at the book before I could even say anything! hehe Robby checked it out for a moment, then looked up at me and I told him who I was, gave him my usual identity- "I'm Jared's mom" He said "Cool! Good to see you again!" and grinned huge! I asked him what he thought about Jared's video, and he just started saying how cool he thought it was, how they were forever confused by how I got them AND Jared into the same video (I shot Jared playing beside a large mirror that reflected the guys playing the HRL show on the big screen tv on the opposite side of the room, fyi) He said they were all tripping because the video showed them playing left handed, and they are all righties, hehehe Really screwed them up! They finally figured out how it was done, and thought it was cool. I told Robby that I'd gotten him a gift, something guaranteed that he would like and use! He looked like a little kid, got that excited expression that a child does when they know they are going to get a surprise. He's so darned cute! I got him a mousepad for his computer that you can put your own picture inside of. I showed him that I'd already put a picture of him and Jared together in it, but got it mainly because I thought he might like to put in a picture of his family. I thought it might help him when he gets to missing them while he's on the road. He loved it! I also presented him (because he and I have a mutual friend that has him on e-mail, and I had asked this person to contact Robby and make sure it was ok) with 2 homemade Rum Cakes, that are a specialty of mine. Well, with John being sick and the guys off the road for a few days, Robby hadnt checked any of his e-mails, so he didnt know I was bringing the cakes. After not hearing anything back from our mutual friend, I decided to take a risk and bake them anyway, hoping like hell that they would accept them, after having remembered me from Morehead. Robby looked surprised that I'd done such a thing, and I told him that I would understand completely if he felt they couldnt accept them, that I'd known I was taking a risk in bringing them. He said no, that it was fine, that it was just great of me to do it for them, and thanked me profusely. He kept saying that he couldnt believe I had taken the time to BAKE something for THEM! He set the cakes down on the sidewalk then gave me a full frontal hug and kissed me on the cheek! :o) Another priceless moment!! Then I had my sister take a picture of me standing between Robby and Nathan (Who had to be got up off the sidewalk, lol! While Robby and I were talking, Nathan had sat down on the sidewalk, leaned up against the building, and was flipping through the book, pointing out "Curious George to my sister!) Robby signed my sister's COA cd liner, and drew her a little GOO :o) Then he noticed the canned food we'd brought, and told us that the fans had donated 50,000 cans to date! He seemed really proud about it. (and should be!) As it was 7pm, everyone had to go!! We had to get inside, and they had to get dressed!! Nathan and Robby thanked me again, Nathan told me once more how much he totally loved the book, then they told us goodbye and that they'd see us in a little while. We started heading for the front gate. We were in a hurry because the gates had been open for over a half hour and we were certain we were too late to ANYWHERE near the front, as this show was Gen. Admn. Before we could make it past the tour buses, the security fellow that had let us remain by the buses came over and started talking to us again because he'd seen our exchange with the guys and just thought it was fabulous. He started telling us about some of the shows he had worked over the years, and I got a sinking feeling because I didnt want to be rude and cut him off, but our chances of getting good spots for the show were gone. It was 15 minutes til show time. At the first opportunity, I told him we were sorry to go but we HAD to get inside. He looked at his watch, and I could tell by his face that he knew he'd been holding us up and that it was LATE. I told him we'd probably screwed up by waiting around so long to see the guys, but it was definately worth it, but now we would NEVER find a good view of the stage on the floor like we wanted. He struggled with himself for a second, came to a mental decision, and told us to follow him! He took us back around to the dressing room doors where we'd met Mike and John earlier, took us in, through that room, down a hallway passing us right by a whole crew of security, telling them it was ok, that we were with him! I couldnt believe it when we found ourselves entering the arena from behind the security barriers! He introduced us to his son, who also worked there, told him to take care of our extra stuff (gift bags, canned food, etc) and to show us where we could pick them up after the show. He then walked us out to the front barrier, opened a gate, and let us out right in front of the stage! We thanked him, and then I remembered our tickets in my pocket. I handed them to him and asked him if he would take them out front and give them to someone outside that didnt have tickets. I mean, I'd already paid for them, so SOMEBODY should get to use them! lol He grinned and said he would, told us to have a blast and enjoy ourselves. A really really cool guy!! The next thing we did was go around to the other side of the stage, on John's side, because we just couldnt see anything on our side (Robby's) but huge speakers on the stage. We were too far out on the edge of the crowd. My aunt and cousin were to meet us at the show, (yes, I'm determined to convert EVERYONE to Goo, lol!) and we got lucky enough to find them on our way around. They joined us, and we managed to work our way to just left of John's mic stand, and were in the second and third rows, so we could see. I didnt care for Frog Pond, the opening band (which John later told us was "An ass whuppin that you deserved for acting so wild" hehe). Fastball was pretty good, they were fun. I knew we were in trouble as soon as the opening bands started playing, because during the short time they were on, already about 15 people were crowd surfing. I'd never been in a mosh pit before and it got really really ugly! (My aunt almost got into a fist fight! ugh!) By the time the guys came on, it was terrible! My poor sister got a whole glass of Pepsi dumped on her head, in her face as soon as Dizzy opened! My cousin Ashley had to leave to go sit in the stands because she was getting too hot and light headed, so my aunt left with her. My sister and I remained, and she was almost crying from the Pepsi in her eyes. She took it pretty well, other than her eyes burning for a long time, but I was scared to death she'd hate me for bringing her!! (she'd never been to a concert before) I wont go into anymore detail about how bad it got, but I will say that John stopped the music dead right in the middle of Naked and told everybody to calm down. He also offered some guy his money back. Apparently the guy was fighting (I couldnt see) and John was pissed about it. He sang incredibly well, much better than I was expecting when I had talked to him earlier.

He did tell everyone that the doctors had said he'd "F*cked up" his throat, but then laughed and said they'd told him he was ugly too! He was in a playful mood, and made a few short jokes, but all in all, you could tell he wasnt cutting loose like normal. Singing wise, he was as fabulous as ever, though. I did notice on Iris that on the chorus he took a different approach, bringing it down a bit, but it worked out great, and no one seemed to notice or mind. He did wonderful! I noticed him slipping off between songs to sip from a coffee mug sitting on one of the speakers. He had a water bottle as well (which he later tossed out to a girl standing directly in front of me) but he only drank from it once. So I assume whatever was in that coffee cup was medicinal for his throat. Robby was his usual bubbly, energetic self, playing with the crowd, working his own brand of magic. He played fabulously, and I noticed that he kept an eye on John, during almost every song, especially the vocally demanding choruses, Robby would get close to John and give him a look, kind of asking him silently with his eyes if he was ok. John would nod, Robby would grin, and they'd just rock together! They have great chemistry and the crowd eats it up! At the end of the show, John brought out this white guitar, and tried to smash it. It must have been one well made guitar, because he threw it 4 times across the stage (I dont know why he didnt just beat it on the floor) and it still didnt break apart. He finally shrugged and gave up. The whole show went well, and if I hadnt been stuck in the middle of a bunch of rude, shoving, pushing, pulling people, I would have enjoyed it. It was definately NOT an equal to Morehead! After the show, the guitar tech that remembered me from Morehead, the one who we had talked to earlier by the dressing room doors, he saw me, grinned, came over to the edge of the stage, and tried to toss me a guitar pick. One went over my head and someone else got it, and 2 landed on the floor in front of me, behind the barrier, and the security guard picked them up and gave one to someone else and stuck the other in his own pocket, although the tech was trying to tell him that they'd been intended for me. I gave up, told him thanks for trying, then went off to find my stuff backstage. We still had to put our canned goods in the box out front, so we came back through the arena, and I saw the guitar tech again on the stage. I went over to tell him goodbye, and thanked him for telling the guys I was outside earlier. I started for the door and got half way across the floor before he yelled for me. I turned and he motioned for me to come back. I did, and he dug into his pocket and pulled out 2 brand new picks, and handed one to me and one to my sister. :o) We were surprised and thanked him a bunch! I have just a few pics that we took with the guys before the show (my sister didnt snap away like my hubby did at Morehead, unfortunately) and then I have 3 rolls that I took inside during the show. I hope they'll all turn out well, I'll let you know. I guess my reason for not wanting this review posted to the site is because it just seems too personal, you know? All my meetings with the guys directly related back to our meeting them at Morehead and their meeting with Jared. I dont know. I feel weird about it. Something about John's fierceness over that little beat up car, Nathan's utter delight with that children's book.....it's just too emotionally personal, something I dont want to sully by having all those little 12 year old girls on the GGDs and TTB lists that read it on your site e-mailing me and telling me how "awesome" or "waaaay cool" they think it is. It surpassed those terms. I truly think the guys were all touched by their gifts, and I was touched by their reactions. Somehow, to exploit that by allowing a thousand people to read it, it would be like sneaking a video camera into their homes during Christmas with their families, catching those special moments and emotions on video, and then selling copies of it out on the street corner. It would just cheapen it somehow. Does that sound crazy? There is also the food issue. I dont want 10,000 people suddenly trying to give them homemade food, which is potentially dangerous, and I dont think they'd go for that. For them to accept what I gave them was an exception, I'd say, and was only allowed because they'd met me before, and had had a memorable experience with my son. Well, Fay, you were the one person that I DID want to share this with. You've been very sweet to me in the past, giving me parenting advice and such, and I know you'll get what I'm saying. It was a very special, very precious, very priceless time for me, and for the guys as well, I think. (I hope!) Sorry it's sooooo long again, but I'm a writer in my spare time, so it comes easy to me, hehe I hope you'll enjoy it and savor it too. :o) Let me know what you think Ever Your Friend, Lisa Miller Agoostic#3 (Lisa) *Everybody stop yelling!.....You all see that little fellow right there? In the middle of the crowd? With his guitar in the air?.....That little guy is trying to take my job!!!* ~John Rzeznik, referring to my son, Jared, at Morehead, Ky. *Yeah! Absolutely.

No offense, but I think you'll understand after you read it. Here goes.... :o) My sister and I arrived at Louisville Gardens at almost 6pm. As we'd driven 50 miles to get there, and had had a late start getting on the road, I was afraid that we'd blown our chance to catch the guys, as the main gate would open at 6:30 and the show start at 7:30. We immediately headed for the back of the building, in hopes of finding the tour buses parked there. No buses in sight! So, we started walking down the alley that runs behind the building, and find there's a wine colored van blocking our path. I realized then that the van was pulled up to the back doors of the building, and there's a sign taped on one of the open doors that says "Goo Goo Doll Dressing Rooms" I knew we'd come to the right place! So, we sat down, smiled at the handful of people that were milling about, in and out of those doors. A few minutes later, a guy that I recognized from the Morehead show, one of the Goo guitar techs, came outside. I told him who I was, and that I'd met the guys at Morehead, and mentioned Jared. As soon as I said something about Jared, his face lit up and he remembered exactly who I was. He grinned and said he'd go and get one of the guys to come out. :o) A second later, Mike strolled out the door, saw us and came over. I told him that I had another gift for him, one that I had originally planned to get him, but couldnt find, so instead had gotten him the Wildcat T-shirt that I ended up giving him at Morehead. (I'd mentioned to him at Morehead that I'd been trying to find him a Wildcat golf club head cover, but hadnt had any luck, hence the T-shirt) So I pulled out a whole set of Wildcat blue and white golf club head covers, and he grinned really big. He thanked me and said that he wore the T-shirt I'd given him at Morehead all the time. :o) Then he said that he does enjoy a good game of golf when he's not on the road, and that now he could wear his UK t-shirt to the golf course and he'd match his golf gear, hehehe I asked him what he thought about Jared's video tape that we'd given them at Morehead, and he grinned really big and said he thought it was just great and that they watch it almost every night! That just made me sooooo happy and proud! I could hardly believe it! :o) I took a picture of him with my sister, and he talked to us for a few minutes longer about where we live, Louisville itself, and then he thanked me for the golf club head covers. I told him NO, the golf club covers had been my way of thanking HIM for being so good to my son in Morehead. He grinned again, thanked me anyway, then said he hated to go but he had to get some things done before show time. He didnt seem nearly so shy this time, and my sister commented on how sweet he is. I told her to be prepared, cause every single one of them are just as sweet!! :o) While we'd been talking to Mike, John had slipped by us. I saw him as he was walking away from us, down the alley, towards where the buses were parked on the opposite side of the building from where I had parked. All I saw was a pair of baggy olive green cargo pants, and some strange thing on his head that looked like a floppy, tan colored cowboy hat that had seen better days, hehehe I knew he'd have to come back into the building, so we didnt follow him (I think it's bad form to follow someone around) So, we sat there and waited, hoping perhaps Nathan or Robby would come out in the meantime. Well, it wasnt long before John came back up the alley, and when he saw us, I stood and told him he was just the man I wanted to see. He smiled and I could tell he knew he'd seen me before but couldnt place me. So instead of introducing myself, I asked him to tell me what he thought of my "little Goo head"s video tape, and then it clicked with him. He smiled really big and said he thought it was just great! Unfortunately, I didnt give him time to elaborate, not once I heard him speak. His voice was very quiet, just above a whisper, not at all like he carried on at Morehead. I looked at him seriously and told him that he didnt sound too good. He rolled his eyes a bit, then he grinned and said that he'd be alright, that the doctors had just told him to take it easy. I told him that I really wished he'd just go home and get well. He looked surprised that I would say that, then he looked a little sad and said that he couldn't go home, that they'd already cancelled some shows, and that he just couldnt. I felt really bad for him. To keep things light, and to prevent myself from doing my usual mothering and pecking at him any further, I told him I'd brought him a few things and he smiled. I gave him an 8x10 enlargement of a picture of him and Jared together. The one where they are sharing a laugh and have the eye contact thing going on. The one where Jared had just asked if he could play on stage with him at Morehead and then proceeded to tell John that he wanted to "Rock with the Goos!" I told him I thought it might make a nice keepsake for him, and John smiled, held it up to get a better look, and just grinned. Then I gave him a bottle of UK blue nail polish (I never thought I'd EVER give nail polish to a man! hehe) and he thought that was pretty cool. I told him I didnt get him alot this time because I'd gotten him the double cd set at Morehead, and I asked him how he liked it. He said it was great, that he'd listened to it alot :o) Then I gave him the card that Jared made for him when he found out John was sick. (Get out the hankie, this will almost make you cry!) I told John that Jared had made the card himself, and bless his little heart, he's just learning to write his letters, but he wrote on it: "To John" then a little heart in the middle (for Love) then, "Jared" at the bottom. On the inside he'd written: "I love you" and "Get Well" at the bottom. All this was done squiggly wiggly in crayon, yet you could read it. Jared had also pulled his favorite stickers off one of his Tonka trucks and stuck them on it, and then just basically doodled and stamped all over it, hehe. It was a true labor of love, I'd say, and John said that it was a great thing for him to do, and seemed to really and truly like it. The tear jerking part comes next, though. I handed John a gift from Jared. Something that Jared had brought to me right before I left for the show and told me to give to John. I was surprised at what it was, and almost didnt agree to take it for fear that Jared would regret it later, but he insisted. I handed John a little, beat up, nicked up, black GTO HotWheel car that has been Jared's very favorite forever. He'd gotten it for his first birthday, and has often carried it in his pants pockets and slept with it. It must have cost him a great deal to part with it, because he looked kind of solemn when he told me to give it to John, but he insisted that I should, because he was certain that it would make John feel better. When I handed it to John and explained all that to him, this look passed over his face that was indescribable. He looked up at me and I could tell he was touched. Then he smiled this quiet little half smile, rolled the little car back and forth on his hand for a second, then turned it over and looked at it from all sides, commented that it was a GTO, and grinned. That's all he said, though, which puzzled me, then I thought that maybe I'd been wrong, that maybe he wasn't touched after all, that he was just amused at getting a little junky toy from a little 4 year old kid. He thanked me for the nail polish and photograph, and I told him that it was just my way of saying thanks for him being so good to my son. I told him everybody in our whole town knows how nice they are! And he laughed After that, I put my arm around him (his hands were full) and my sister took a picture of us, then I got one of her with him too. (When the pics were developed, John isnt looking at the camera for that one, he's still looking at the little Hot Wheel and Jared's homemade card in his hand) He talked to us for a moment longer, still making no mention whatsoever about the little car, even though he'd thanked me for everything else. But when he left us to go inside, he suddenly stopped and turned to me in the doorway. Held that little car up in his fist, in a grip so tight his knuckles were white, and said in a voice surprisingly fierce, "You tell him (meaning Jared) that I said thank you VERY much for this, and that I will hang on to it and NEVER let ANYTHING happen to it" I told him I would, watched as he slipped it into his pants pocket, then disappeared inside. Oh, I could have just bawled like a baby! And something made me feel (even my sister commented on it) that John had felt like doing the same. It was a priceless moment, one I'll never forget. While I was trying to decide if I was going to cry or not, Mike came back out with some envelopes in his hand. He grinned at us and asked if we knew where he could find a mail box. I reminded him that we werent from Louisville, so we wouldnt know, but surely there would be one on almost every corner since we were right downtown. He told us to wish him luck, that if he didnt show up for the show to tell everyone he was lost on the streets of downtown Louisville, lol, then he headed off down the alley :o) Well, shortly after that, one of the security guys that had been so nice to us, came out said his supervisor had just came in and had asked what we were doing there in the alley. He said it would probably be best if we went ahead and left. So, we headed to where the tour buses were parked, and waited right next to them for Nathan and Robby. While we were waiting, this older fellow, who was security, came over and asked us what we were doing, and I told him that we were waiting to catch the guys, and that we'd already seen Mike and John. He smiled and said he'd been with them all day and that they seemed like really nice boys. I agreed wholeheartedly and told him about our experience at Morehead. He thought it was really cool, and after I told him that I was there on a "Thank You Mission", he said he understood and said he'd let us wait by the buses as long as we needed to. He was really nice! A few minutes later, around the corner came Nathan :o) After he'd signed Jared's guitar at Morehead, and was so nice to us, telling us about his little girl and stuff, I felt really guilty for not bringing him anything. So, this time, I'd gotten him a gift. An unusual one. As he got closer, I called to him and he came over. He didnt recognize me 'til I told him I was Jared's mom, and then a big grin broke out on his face. I told him that I'd felt really bad about not getting him anything at Morehead, so I'd brought him something this time. His face lit up. Until I told him that what I'd brought was not exactly for HIM. He looked a little confused, but curious. As I placed a book in his hands, a book called '20th Century Treasury of Children's Stories', I explained to him that I remembered him telling us that he had a 2 year old little girl, and that I'd gotten him the book in hopes that he would take the time to sit with her and read to her as I've always done with Jared. He LOVED it!!!! As soon as I laid it in his hands, the man went crazy! He was oooohing and aaaaahing and flipping pages and pointing at the artwork. He was ecstatic! More excited than I ever dreamed he'd be. As it was a compilation book, with everything from Curious George to Madeline to The Star Bellied Sneeches; over 30 books with the original artwork, Nathan was absolutely tickled! I've NEVER seen anyone get so excited about a book before! He was pointing out all this stuff, commenting that this one or that one was a favorite author/artist, he was truly happy. :o) Which made ME happy, because I'd sort of had my doubts about giving the book to him in the first place, but now I KNOW I made the right choice!! As I was watching Nathan and getting a kick out of him with his book, he suddenly held it up and yelled down the street! "Hey! Look what I just got!" And here came John and Mr. Dirty Toes himself! (pardon the expression, but Jared kindly pointed that fact out to Robby when we met them at Morehead, hehe) Robby had a smile on his face. (and shock of all shocks...SHOES on his feet!) John had his things that we'd given him in his hands, grinned, waved, and headed on into the bus. He really looked sick and very tired :o( Nathan pulled Robby over to look at the book before I could even say anything! hehe Robby checked it out for a moment, then looked up at me and I told him who I was, gave him my usual identity- "I'm Jared's mom" He said "Cool! Good to see you again!" and grinned huge! I asked him what he thought about Jared's video, and he just started saying how cool he thought it was, how they were forever confused by how I got them AND Jared into the same video (I shot Jared playing beside a large mirror that reflecgs that we'd given him in his hands, grinned, waved, and headed on into the bus. He really looked sick and very tired :o( Nathan pulled Robby over to look at the book before I could even say anything! hehe Robby checked it out for a moment, then looked up at me and I told him who I was, gave him my usual identity- "I'm Jared's mom" He said "Cool!

While we were waiting, this older fellow, who was security, came over and asked us what we were doing, and I told him that we were waiting to catch the guys, and were too far out on the edge of the crowd. My aunt and cousin were to meet us at the show, (yes, I'm determined to convert EVERYONE to Goo, lol!) and we got lucky enough to find them on our way around. They joined us, and we managed to work our way to just left of John's mic stand, and were in the second and third rows, so we could see. I didnt care for Frog Pond, the opening band (which John later told us was "An ass whuppin that you deserved for acting so wild" hehe). Fastball was pretty good, they were fun. I knew we were in trouble as soon as the opening bands started playing, because during the short time they were on, already about 15 people were crowd surfing. I'd never been in a mosh pit before and it got really really ugly! (My aunt almost got into a fist fight! ugh!) By the time the guys came on, it was terrible! My poor sister got a whole glass of Pepsi dumped on her head, in her face as soon as Dizzy opened! My cousin Ashley had to leave to go sit in the stands because she was getting too hot and light headed, so my aunt left with her. My sister and I remained, and she was almost crying from the Pepsi in her eyes. She took it pretty well, other than her eyes burning for a long time, but I was scared to death she'd hate me for bringing her!) Another priceless moment!! Then I had my sister take a picture of me standing between Robby and Nathan (Who had to be got up off the sidewalk, lol! While Robby and I were talking, Nathan had sat down on the sidewalk, leaned up against the building, and was flipping through the book, pointing out "Curious George to my sister!) Robby signed my sister's COA cd liner, and drew her a little GOO :o) Then he noticed the canned food we'd brought, and told us that the fans had donated 50,000 cans to date! He seemed really proud about it. (and should be!) As it was 7pm, everyone had to go!! We had to get inside, and they had to get dressed!! Nathan and Robby thanked me again, Nathan told me once more how much he totally loved the book, then they told us goodbye and that they'd see us in a little while. We started heading for the front gate. We were in a hurry because the gates had been open for over a half hour and we were certain we were too late to ANYWHERE near the front, as this show was Gen. Admn. Before we could make it past the tour buses, the security fellow that had let us remain by the buses came over and started talking to us again because he'd seen our exchange with the guys and just thought it was fabulous.

Then he smiled this quiet little half smile, rolled the little car back and forth on his hand for a second, then turned it over and looked at it from all sides, commented that it was a GTO, and grinned. That's all he said, though, which puzzled me, then I thought that maybe I'd been wrong, that maybe he wasn't touched after all, that he was just amused at getting a little junky toy from a little 4 year old kid. He thanked me for the nail polish and photograph, and I told him that it was just my way of saying thanks for him being so good to my son. I told him everybody in our whole town knows how nice they are! And he laughed After that, I put my arm around him (his hands were full) and my sister took a picture of us, then I got one of her with him too. (When the pics were developed, John isnt looking at the camera for that one, he's still looking at the little Hot Wheel and Jared's homemade card in his hand) He talked to us for a moment longer, still making no mention whatsoever about the little car, even though he'd thanked me for everything else. But when he left us to go inside, he suddenly stopped and turned to me in the doorway. Held that little car up in his fist, in a grip so tight his knuckles were white, and said in a voice surprisingly fierce, "You tell him (meaning Jared) that I said thank you VERY much for this, and that I will hang on to it and NEVER let ANYTHING happen to it" I told him I would, watched as he slipped it into his pants pocket, then disappeared inside. Oh, I could have just bawled like a baby! And something made me feel (even my sister commented on it) that John had felt like doing the same. It was a priceless moment, one I'll never forget. While I was trying to decide if I was going to cry or not, Mike came back out with some envelopes in his hand. He grinned at us and asked if we knew where he could find a mail box. I reminded him that we werent from Louisville, so we wouldnt know, but surely there would be one on almost every corner since we were right downtown. He told us to wish him luck, that if he didnt show up for the show to tell everyone he was lost on the streets of downtown Louisville, lol, then he headed off down the alley :o) Well, shortly after that, one of the security guys that had been so nice to us, came out said his supervisor had just came in and had asked what we were doing there in the alley. He said it would probably be best if we went ahead and left. So, we headed to where the tour buses were parked, and waited right next to them for Nathan and Robby. While we were waiting, this older fellow, who was security, came over and asked us what we were doing, and I told him that we were waiting to catch the guys, and that we'd already seen Mike and John. He smiled and said he'd been with them all day and that they seemed like really nice boys. I agreed wholeheartedly and told him about our experience at Morehead. He thought it was really cool, and after I told him that I was there on a "Thank You Mission", he said he understood and said he'd let us wait by the buses as long as we needed to. He was really nice! A few minutes later, around the corner came Nathan :o) After he'd signed Jared's guitar at Morehead, and was so nice to us, telling us about his little girl and stuff, I felt really guilty for not bringing him anything. So, this time, I'd gotten him a gift. An unusual one. As he got closer, I called to him and he came over. He didnt recognize me 'til I told him I was Jared's mom, and then a big grin broke out on his face. I told him that I'd felt really bad about not getting him anything at Morehead, so I'd brought him something this time. His face lit up. Until I told him that what I'd brought was not exactly for HIM. He looked a little confused, but curious. As I placed a book in his hands, a book called '20th Century Treasury of Children's Stories', I explained to him that I remembered him telling us that he had a 2 year old little girl, and that I'd gotten him the book in hopes that he would take the time to sit with her and read to her as I've always done with Jared. He LOVED it!!!! As soon as I laid it in his hands, the man went crazy! He was oooohing and aaaaahing and flipping pages and pointing at the artwork. He was ecstatic! More excited than I ever dreamed he'd be. As it was a compilation book, with everything from Curious George to Madeline to The Star Bellied Sneeches; over 30 books with the original artwork, Nathan was absolutely tickled! I've NEVER seen anyone get so excited about a book before! He was pointing out all this stuff, commenting that this one or that one was a favorite author/artist, he was truly happy. :o) Which made ME happy, because I'd sort of had my doubts about giving the book to him in the first place, but now I KNOW I made the right choice!! As I was watching Nathan and getting a kick out of him with his book, he suddenly held it up and yelled down the street! "Hey! Look what I just got!" And here came John and Mr. Dirty Toes himself! (pardon the expression, but Jared kindly pointed that fact out to Robby when we met them at Morehead, hehe) Robby had a smile on his face. (and shock of all shocks...SHOES on his feet!) John had his things that we'd given him in his hands, grinned, waved, and headed on into the bus. He really looked sick and very tired :o( Nathan pulled Robby over to look at the book before I could even say anything! hehe Robby checked it out for a moment, then looked up at me and I told him who I was, gave him my usual identity- "I'm Jared's mom" He said "Cool! Good to see you again!" and grinned huge! I asked him what he thought about Jared's video, and he just started saying how cool he thought it was, how they were forever confused by how I got them AND Jared into the same video (I shot Jared playing beside a large mirror that reflected the guys playing the HRL show on the big screen tv on the opposite side of the room, fyi) He said they were all tripping because the video showed them playing left handed, and they are all righties, hehehe Really screwed them up! They finally figured out how it was done, and thought it was cool. I told Robby that I'd gotten him a gift, something guaranteed that he would like and use! He looked like a little kid, got that excited expression that a child does when they know they are going to get a surprise. He's so darned cute! I got him a mousepad for his computer that you can put your own picture inside of. I showed him that I'd already put a picture of him and Jared together in it, but got it mainly because I thought he might like to put in a picture of his family. I thought it might help him when he gets to missing them while he's on the road. He loved it! I also presented him (because he and I have a mutual friend that has him on e-mail, and I had asked this person to contact Robby and make sure it was ok) with 2 homemade Rum Cakes, that are a specialty of mine. Well, with John being sick and the guys off the road for a few days, Robby hadnt checked any of his e-mails, so he didnt know I was bringing the cakes. After not hearing anything back from our mutual friend, I decided to take a risk and bake them anyway, hoping like hell that they would accept them, after having remembered me from Morehead. Robby looked surprised that I'd done such a thing, and I told him that I would understand completely if he felt they couldnt accept them, that I'd known I was taking a risk in bringing them. He said no, that it was fine, that it was just great of me to do it for them, and thanked me profusely. He kept saying that he couldnt believe I had taken the time to BAKE something for THEM! He set the cakes down on the sidewalk then gave me a full frontal hug and kissed me on the cheek! :o) Another priceless moment!! Then I had my sister take a picture of me standing between Robby and Nathan (Who had to be got up off the sidewalk, lol! While Robby and I were talking, Nathan had sat down on the sidewalk, leaned up against the building, and was flipping through the book, pointing out "Curious George to my sister!) Robby signed my sister's COA cd liner, and drew her a little GOO :o) Then he noticed the canned food we'd brought, and told us that the fans had donated 50,000 cans to date! He seemed really proud about it. (and should be!) As it was 7pm, everyone had to go!! We had to get inside, and they had to get dressed!! Nathan and Robby thanked me again, Nathan told me once more how much he totally loved the book, then they told us goodbye and that they'd see us in a little while. We started heading for the front gate. We were in a hurry because the gates had been open for over a half hour and we were certain we were too late to ANYWHERE near the front, as this show was Gen. Admn. Before we could make it past the tour buses, the security fellow that had let us remain by the buses came over and started talking to us again because he'd seen our exchange with the guys and just thought it was fabulous. He started telling us about some of the shows he had worked over the years, and I got a sinking feeling because I didnt want to be rude and cut him off, but our chances of getting good spots for the show were gone. It was 15 minutes til show time. At the first opportunity, I told him we were sorry to go but we HAD to get inside. He looked at his watch, and I could tell by his face that he knew he'd been holding us up and that it was LATE. I told him we'd probably screwed up by waiting around so long to see the guys, but it was definately worth it, but now we would NEVER find a good view of the stage on the floor like we wanted. He struggled with himself for a second, came to a mental decision, and told us to follow him! He took us back around to the dressing room doors where we'd met Mike and John earlier, took us in, through that room, down a hallway passing us right by a whole crew of security, telling them it was ok, that we were with him! I couldnt believe it when we found ourselves entering the arena from behind the security barriers! He introduced us to his son, who also worked there, told him to take care of our extra stuff (gift bags, canned food, etc) and to show us where we could pick them up after the show. He then walked us out to the front barrier, opened a gate, and let us out right in front of the stage! We thanked him, and then I remembered our tickets in my pocket. I handed them to him and asked him if he would take them out front and give them to someone outside that didnt have tickets. I mean, I'd already paid for them, so SOMEBODY should get to use them! lol He grinned and said he would, told us to have a blast and enjoy ourselves. A really really cool guy!! The next thing we did was go around to the other side of the stage, on John's side, because we just couldnt see anything on our side (Robby's) but huge speakers on the stage. We were too far out on the edge of the crowd. My aunt and cousin were to meet us at the show, (yes, I'm determined to convert EVERYONE to Goo, lol!) and we got lucky enough to find them on our way around. They joined us, and we managed to work our way to just left of John's mic stand, and were in the second and third rows, so we could see. I didnt care for Frog Pond, the opening band (which John later told us was "An ass whuppin that you deserved for acting so wild" hehe). Fastball was pretty good, they were fun. I knew we were in trouble as soon as the opening bands started playing, because during the short time they were on, already about 15 people were crowd surfing. I'd never been in a mosh pit before and it got really really ugly! (My aunt almost got into a fist fight! ugh!) By the time the guys came on, it was terrible! My poor sister got a whole glass of Pepsi dumped on her head, in her face as soon as Dizzy opened! My cousin Ashley had to leave to go sit in the stands because she was getting too hot and light headed, so my aunt left with her. My sister and I remained, and she was almost crying from the Pepsi in her eyes. She took it pretty well, other than her eyes burning for a long time, but I was scared to death she'd hate me for bringing her!! (she'd never been to a concert before) I wont go into anymore detail about how bad it got, but I will say that John stopped the music dead right in the middle of Naked and told everybody to calm down. He also offered some guy his money back. Apparently the guy was fighting (I couldnt see) and John was pissed about it. He sang incredibly well, much better than I was expecting when I had talked to him earlier. He worked the crowd alot (and was still wearing that silly hat, btw!), but didnt carry on his verbal nonsense like he did at Morehead. He did tell everyone that the doctors had said he'd "F*cked up" his throat, but then laughed and said they'd told him he was ugly too! He was in a playful mood, and made a few short jokes, but all in all, you could tell he wasnt cutting loose like normal. Singing wise, he was as fabulous as ever, though. I did notice on Iris that on the chorus he took a different approach, bringing it down a bit, but it worked out great, and no one seemed to notice or mind. He did wonderful! I noticed him slipping off between songs to sip from a coffee mug sitting on one of the speakers. He had a water bottle as well (which he later tossed out to a girl standing directly in front of me) but he only drank from it once. So I assume whatever was in that coffee cup was medicinal for his throat. Robby was his usual bubbly, energetic self, playing with the crowd, working his own brand of magic. He played fabulously, and I noticed that he kept an eye on John, during almost every song, especially the vocally demanding choruses, Robby would get close to John and give him a look, kind of asking him silently with his eyes if he was ok. John would nod, Robby would grin, and they'd just rock together! They have great chemistry and the crowd eats it up! At the end of the show, John brought out this white guitar, and tried to smash it. It must have been one well made guitar, because he threw it 4 times across the stage (I dont know why he didnt just beat it on the floor) and it still didnt break apart. He finally shrugged and gave up. The whole show went well, and if I hadnt been stuck in the middle of a bunch of rude, shoving, pushing, pulling people, I would have enjoyed it. It was definately NOT an equal to Morehead! After the show, the guitar tech that remembered me from Morehead, the one who we had talked to earlier by the dressing room doors, he saw me, grinned, came over to the edge of the stage, and tried to toss me a guitar pick. One went over my head and someone else got it, and 2 landed on the floor in front of me, behind the barrier, and the security guard picked them up and gave one to someone else and stuck the other in his own pocket, although the tech was trying to tell him that they'd been intended for me. I gave up, told him thanks for trying, then went off to find my stuff backstage. We still had to put our canned goods in the box out front, so we came back through the arena, and I saw the guitar tech again on the stage. I went over to tell him goodbye, and thanked him for telling the guys I was outside earlier. I started for the door and got half way across the floor before he yelled for me. I turned and he motioned for me to come back. I did, and he dug into his pocket and pulled out 2 brand new picks, and handed one to me and one to my sister. :o) We were surprised and thanked him a bunch! I have just a few pics that we took with the guys before the show (my sister didnt snap away like my hubby did at Morehead, unfortunately) and then I have 3 rolls that I took inside during the show. I hope they'll all turn out well, I'll let you know. I guess my reason for not wanting this review posted to the site is because it just seems too personal, you know? All my meetings with the guys directly related back to our meeting them at Morehead and their meeting with Jared. I dont know. I feel weird about it. Something about John's fierceness over that little beat up car, Nathan's utter delight with that children's book.....it's just too emotionally personal, something I dont want to sully by having all those little 12 year old girls on the GGDs and TTB lists that read it on your site e-mailing me and telling me how "awesome" or "waaaay cool" they think it is. It surpassed those terms. I truly think the guys were all touched by their gifts, and I was touched by their reactions. Somehow, to exploit that by allowing a thousand people to read it, it would be like sneaking a video camera into their homes during Christmas with their families, catching those special moments and emotions on video, and then selling copies of it out on the street corner. It would just cheapen it somehow. Does that sound crazy? There is also the food issue. I dont want 10,000 people suddenly trying to give them homemade food, which is potentially dangerous, and I dont think they'd go for that. For them to accept what I gave them was an exception, I'd say, and was only allowed because they'd met me before, and had had a memorable experience with my son. Well, Fay, you were the one person that I DID want to share this with. You've been very sweet to me in the past, giving me parenting advice and such, and I know you'll get what I'm saying. It was a very special, very precious, very priceless time for me, and for the guys as well, I think. (I hope!) Sorry it's sooooo long again, but I'm a writer in my spare time, so it comes easy to me, hehe I hope you'll enjoy it and savor it too. :o) Let me know what you think Ever Your Friend, Lisa Miller Agoostic#3 (Lisa) *Everybody stop yelling!.....You all see that little fellow right there? In the middle of the crowd? With his guitar in the air?.....That little guy is trying to take my job!!!* ~John Rzeznik, referring to my son, Jared, at Morehead, Ky. *Yeah! Absolutely. It sits on my amp every night when I play* ~John Rzeznik's answer when asked on Yahoo Chat if he still has the little black GTO Hot Wheel car that my son gave him in May.

No offense, but I think you'll understand after you read it. Here goes.... :o) My sister and I arrived at Louisville Gardens at almost 6pm. As we'd driven 50 miles to get there, and had had a late start getting on the road, I was afraid that we'd blown our chance to catch the guys, as the main gate would open at 6:30 and the show start at 7:30. We immediately headed for the back of the building, in hopes of finding the tour buses parked there. No buses in sight! So, we started walking down the alley that runs behind the building, and find there's a wine colored van blocking our path. I realized then that the van was pulled up to the back doors of the building, and there's a sign taped on one of the open doors that says "Goo Goo Doll Dressing Rooms" I knew we'd come to the right place! So, we sat down, smiled at the handful of people that were milling about, in and out of those doors. A few minutes later, a guy that I recognized from the Morehead show, one of the Goo guitar techs, came outside. I told him who I was, and that I'd met the guys at Morehead, and mentioned Jared. As soon as I said something about Jared, his face lit up and he remembered exactly who I was. He grinned and said he'd go and get one of the guys to come out. :o) A second later, Mike strolled out the door, saw us and came over. I told him that I had another gift for him, one that I had originally planned to get him, but couldnt find, so instead had gotten him the Wildcat T-shirt that I ended up giving him at Morehead. (I'd mentioned to him at Morehead that I'd been trying to find him a Wildcat golf club head cover, but hadnt had any luck, hence the T-shirt) So I pulled out a whole set of Wildcat blue and white golf club head covers, and he grinned really big. He thanked me and said that he wore the T-shirt I'd given him at Morehead all the time. :o) Then he said that he does enjoy a good game of golf when he's not on the road, and that now he could wear his UK t-shirt to the golf course and he'd match his golf gear, hehehe I asked him what he thought about Jared's video tape that we'd given them at Morehead, and he grinned really big and said he thought it was just great and that they watch it almost every night! That just made me sooooo happy and proud! I could hardly believe it! :o) I took a picture of him with my sister, and he talked to us for a few minutes longer about where we live, Louisville itself, and then he thanked me for the golf club head covers. I told him NO, the golf club covers had been my way of thanking HIM for being so good to my son in Morehead. He grinned again, thanked me anyway, then said he hated to go but he had to get some things done before show time. He didnt seem nearly so shy this time, and my sister commented on how sweet he is. I told her to be prepared, cause every single one of them are just as sweet!! :o) While we'd been talking to Mike, John had slipped by us. I saw him as he was walking away from us, down the alley, towards where the buses were parked on the opposite side of the building from where I had parked. All I saw was a pair of baggy olive green cargo pants, and some strange thing on his head that looked like a floppy, tan colored cowboy hat that had seen better days, hehehe I knew he'd have to come back into the building, so we didnt follow him (I think it's bad form to follow someone around) So, we sat there and waited, hoping perhaps Nathan or Robby would come out in the meantime. Well, it wasnt long before John came back up the alley, and when he saw us, I stood and told him he was just the man I wanted to see. He smiled and I could tell he knew he'd seen me before but couldnt place me. So instead of introducing myself, I asked him to tell me what he thought of my "little Goo head"s video tape, and then it clicked with him. He smiled really big and said he thought it was just great! Unfortunately, I didnt give him time to elaborate, not once I heard him speak. His voice was very quiet, just above a whisper, not at all like he carried on at Morehead. I looked at him seriously and told him that he didnt sound too good. He rolled his eyes a bit, then he grinned and said that he'd be alright, that the doctors had just told him to take it easy. I told him that I really wished he'd just go home and get well. He looked surprised that I would say that, then he looked a little sad and said that he couldn't go home, that they'd already cancelled some shows, and that he just couldnt. I felt really bad for him. To keep things light, and to prevent myself from doing my usual mothering and pecking at him any further, I told him I'd brought him a few things and he smiled. I gave him an 8x10 enlargement of a picture of him and Jared together. The one where they are sharing a laugh and have the eye contact thing going on. The one where Jared had just asked if he could play on stage with him at Morehead and then proceeded to tell John that he wanted to "Rock with the Goos!" I told him I thought it might make a nice keepsake for him, and John smiled, held it up to get a better look, and just grinned. Then I gave him a bottle of UK blue nail polish (I never thought I'd EVER give nail polish to a man! hehe) and he thought that was pretty cool. I told him I didnt get him alot this time because I'd gotten him the double cd set at Morehead, and I asked him how he liked it. He said it was great, that he'd listened to it alot :o) Then I gave him the card that Jared made for him when he found out John was sick. (Get out the hankie, this will almost make you cry!) I told John that Jared had made the card himself, and bless his little heart, he's just learning to write his letters, but he wrote on it: "To John" then a little heart in the middle (for Love) then, "Jared" at the bottom. On the inside he'd written: "I love you" and "Get Well" at the bottom. All this was done squiggly wiggly in crayon, yet you could read it. Jared had also pulled his favorite stickers off one of his Tonka trucks and stuck them on it, and then just basically doodled and stamped all over it, hehe. It was a true labor of love, I'd say, and John said that it was a great thing for him to do, and seemed to really and truly like it. The tear jerking part comes next, though. I handed John a gift from Jared. Something that Jared had brought to me right before I left for the show and told me to give to John. I was surprised at what it was, and almost didnt agree to take it for fear that Jared would regret it later, but he insisted. I handed John a little, beat up, nicked up, black GTO HotWheel car that has been Jared's very favorite forever. He'd gotten it for his first birthday, and has often carried it in his pants pockets and slept with it. It must have cost him a great deal to part with it, because he looked kind of solemn when he told me to give it to John, but he insisted that I should, because he was certain that it would make John feel better. When I handed it to John and explained all that to him, this look passed over his face that was indescribable. He looked up at me and I could tell he was touched. Then he smiled this quiet little half smile, rolled the little car back and forth on his hand for a second, then turned it over and looked at it from all sides, commented that it was a GTO, and grinned. That's all he said, though, which puzzled me, then I thought that maybe I'd been wrong, that maybe he wasn't touched after all, that he was just amused at getting a little junky toy from a little 4 year old kid. He thanked me for the nail polish and photograph, and I told him that it was just my way of saying thanks for him being so good to my son. I told him everybody in our whole town knows how nice they are! And he laughed After that, I put my arm around him (his hands were full) and my sister took a picture of us, then I got one of her with him too. (When the pics were developed, John isnt looking at the camera for that one, he's still looking at the little Hot Wheel and Jared's homemade card in his hand) He talked to us for a moment longer, still making no mention whatsoever about the little car, even though he'd thanked me for everything else. But when he left us to go inside, he suddenly stopped and turned to me in the doorway. Held that little car up in his fist, in a grip so tight his knuckles were white, and said in a voice surprisingly fierce, "You tell him (meaning Jared) that I said thank you VERY much for this, and that I will hang on to it and NEVER let ANYTHING happen to it" I told him I would, watched as he slipped it into his pants pocket, then disappeared inside. Oh, I could have just bawled like a baby! And something made me feel (even my sister commented on it) that John had felt like doing the same. It was a priceless moment, one I'll never forget. While I was trying to decide if I was going to cry or not, Mike came back out with some envelopes in his hand. He grinned at us and asked if we knew where he could find a mail box. I reminded him that we werent from Louisville, so we wouldnt know, but surely there would be one on almost every corner since we were right downtown. He told us to wish him luck, that if he didnt show up for the show to tell everyone he was lost on the streets of downtown Louisville, lol, then he headed off down the alley :o) Well, shortly after that, one of the security guys that had been so nice to us, came out said his supervisor had just came in and had asked what we were doing there in the alley.

As I placed a book in his hands, a book called '20th Century Treasury of Children's Stories', I explained to him that I remembered him telling us that he had a 2 year old little girl, and that I'd gotten him the book in hopes that he would take the time to sit with her and read to her as I've always done with Jared. He LOVED it!!!! As soon as I laid it in his hands, the man went crazy! He was oooohing and aaaaahing and flipping pages and pointing at the artwork. He was ecstatic! More excited than I ever dreamed he'd be. As it was a compilation book, with everything from Curious George to Madeline to The Star Bellied Sneeches; over 30 books with the original artwork, Nathan was absolutely tickled! I've NEVER seen anyone get so excited about a book before!

As I was watching Nathan and getting a kick out of him with his book, he suddenly held it up and yelled down the street! "Hey! Look what I just got!" And here came John and Mr. Dirty Toes himself! (pardon the expression, but Jared kindly pointed that fact out to Robby when we met them at Morehead, hehe) Robby had a smile on his face. (and shock of all shocks...SHOES on his feet!) John had his things that we'd given him in his hands, grinned, waved, and headed on into the bus. He really looked sick and very tired :o( Nathan pulled Robby over to look at the book before I could even say anything! hehe Robby checked it out for a moment, then looked up at me and I told him who I was, gave him my usual identity- "I'm Jared's mom" He said "Cool! Good to see you again!" and grinned huge! I asked him what he thought about Jared's video, and he just started saying how cool he thought it was, how they were forever confused by how I got them AND Jared into the same video (I shot Jared playing beside a large mirror that reflected the guys playing the HRL show on the big screen tv on the opposite side of the room, fyi) He said they were all tripping because the video showed them playing left handed, and they are all righties, hehehe Really screwed them up! They finally figured out how it was done, and thought it was cool. I told Robby that I'd gotten him a gift, something guaranteed that he would like and use! He looked like a little kid, got that excited expression that a child does when they know they are going to get a surprise. He's so darned cute! I got him a mousepad for his computer that you can put your own picture inside of. I showed him that I'd already put a picture of him and Jared together in it, but got it mainly because I thought he might like to put in a picture of his family. I thought it might help him when he gets to missing them while he's on the road. He loved it! I also presented him (because he and I have a mutual friend that has him on e-mail, and I had asked this person to contact Robby and make sure it was ok) with 2 homemade Rum Cakes, that are a specialty of mine. Well, with John being sick and the guys off the road for a few days, Robby hadnt checked any of his e-mails, so he didnt know I was bringing the cakes. After not hearing anything back from our mutual friend, I decided to take a risk and bake them anyway, hoping like hell that they would accept them, after having remembered me from Morehead. Robby looked surprised that I'd done such a thing, and I told him that I would understand completely if he felt they couldnt accept them, that I'd known I was taking a risk in bringing them. He said no, that it was fine, that it was just great of me to do it for them, and thanked me profusely. He kept saying that he couldnt believe I had taken the time to BAKE something for THEM! He set the cakes down on the sidewalk then gave me a full frontal hug and kissed me on the cheek! :o) Another priceless moment!! Then I had my sister take a picture of me standing between Robby and Nathan (Who had to be got up off the sidewalk, lol! While Robby and I were talking, Nathan had sat down on the sidewalk, leaned up against the building, and was flipping through the book, pointing out "Curious George to my sister!) Robby signed my sister's COA cd liner, and drew her a little GOO :o) Then he noticed the canned food we'd brought, and told us that the fans had donated 50,000 cans to date! He seemed really proud about it. (and should be!) As it was 7pm, everyone had to go!! We had to get inside, and they had to get dressed!! Nathan and Robby thanked me again, Nathan told me once more how much he totally loved the book, then they told us goodbye and that they'd see us in a little while. We started heading for the front gate. We were in a hurry because the gates had been open for over a half hour and we were certain we were too late to ANYWHERE near the front, as this show was Gen. Admn. Before we could make it past the tour buses, the security fellow that had let us remain by the buses came over and started talking to us again because he'd seen our exchange with the guys and just thought it was fabulous. He started telling us about some of the shows he had worked over the years, and I got a sinking feeling because I didnt want to be rude and cut him off, but our chances of getting good spots for the show were gone. It was 15 minutes til show time. At the first opportunity, I told him we were sorry to go but we HAD to get inside. He looked at his watch, and I could tell by his face that he knew he'd been holding us up and that it was LATE. I told him we'd probably screwed up by waiting around so long to see the guys, but it was definately worth it, but now we would NEVER find a good view of the stage on the floor like we wanted. He struggled with himself for a second, came to a mental decision, and told us to follow him! He took us back around to the dressing room doors where we'd met Mike and John earlier, took us in, through that room, down a hallway passing us right by a whole crew of security, telling them it was ok, that we were with him! I couldnt believe it when we found ourselves entering the arena from behind the security barriers! He introduced us to his son, who also worked there, told him to take care of our extra stuff (gift bags, canned food, etc) and to show us where we could pick them up after the show. He then walked us out to the front barrier, opened a gate, and let us out right in front of the stage! We thanked him, and then I remembered our tickets in my pocket. I handed them to him and asked him if he would take them out front and give them to someone outside that didnt have tickets. I mean, I'd already paid for them, so SOMEBODY should get to use them! lol He grinned and said he would, told us to have a blast and enjoy ourselves. A really really cool guy!! The next thing we did was go around to the other side of the stage, on John's side, because we just couldnt see anything on our side (Robby's) but huge speakers on the stage. We were too far out on the edge of the crowd. My aunt and cousin were to meet us at the show, (yes, I'm determined to convert EVERYONE to Goo, lol!) and we got lucky enough to find them on our way around. They joined us, and we managed to work our way to just left of John's mic stand, and were in the second and third rows, so we could see. I didnt care for Frog Pond, the opening band (which John later told us was "An ass whuppin that you deserved for acting so wild" hehe). Fastball was pretty good, they were fun. I knew we were in trouble as soon as the opening bands started playing, because during the short time they were on, already about 15 people were crowd surfing. I'd never been in a mosh pit before and it got really really ugly! (My aunt almost got into a fist fight! ugh!) By the time the guys came on, it was terrible! My poor sister got a whole glass of Pepsi dumped on her head, in her face as soon as Dizzy opened! My cousin Ashley had to leave to go sit in the stands because she was getting too hot and light headed, so my aunt left with her. My sister and I remained, and she was almost crying from the Pepsi in her eyes. She took it pretty well, other than her eyes burning for a long time, but I was scared to death she'd hate me for bringing her!! (she'd never been to a concert before) I wont go into anymore detail about how bad it got, but I will say that John stopped the music dead right in the middle of Naked and told everybody to calm down. He also offered some guy his money back. Apparently the guy was fighting (I couldnt see) and John was pissed about it. He sang incredibly well, much better than I was expecting when I had talked to him earlier. He worked the crowd alot (and was still wearing that silly hat, btw!), but didnt carry on his verbal nonsense like he did at Morehead. He did tell everyone that the doctors had said he'd "F*cked up" his throat, but then laughed and said they'd told him he was ugly too! He was in a playful mood, and made a few short jokes, but all in all, you could tell he wasnt cutting loose like normal. Singing wise, he was as fabulous as ever, though. I did notice on Iris that on the chorus he took a different approach, bringing it down a bit, but it worked out great, and no one seemed to notice or mind. He did wonderful! I noticed him slipping off between songs to sip from a coffee mug sitting on one of the speakers. He had a water bottle as well (which he later tossed out to a girl standing directly in front of me) but he only drank from it once. So I assume whatever was in that coffee cup was medicinal for his throat. Robby was his usual bubbly, energetic self, playing with the crowd, working his own brand of magic. He played fabulously, and I noticed that he kept an eye on John, during almost every song, especially the vocally demanding choruses, Robby would get close to John and give him a look, kind of asking him silently with his eyes if he was ok. John would nod, Robby would grin, and they'd just rock together! They have great chemistry and the crowd eats it up! At the end of the show, John brought out this white guitar, and tried to smash it. It must have been one well made guitar, because he threw it 4 times across the stage (I dont know why he didnt just beat it on the floor) and it still didnt break apart. He finally shrugged and gave up. The whole show went well, and if I hadnt been stuck in the middle of a bunch of rude, shoving, pushing, pulling people, I would have enjoyed it. It was definately NOT an equal to Morehead! After the show, the guitar tech that remembered me from Morehead, the one who we had talked to earlier by the dressing room doors, he saw me, grinned, came over to the edge of the stage, and tried to toss me a guitar pick. One went over my head and someone else got it, and 2 landed on the floor in front of me, behind the barrier, and the security guard picked them up and gave one to someone else and stuck the other in his own pocket, although the tech was trying to tell him that they'd been intended for me. I gave up, told him thanks for trying, then went off to find my stuff backstage. We still had to put our canned goods in the box out front, so we came back through the arena, and I saw the guitar tech again on the stage. I went over to tell him goodbye, and thanked him for telling the guys I was outside earlier. I started for the door and got half way across the floor before he yelled for me. I turned and he motioned for me to come back. I did, and he dug into his pocket and pulled out 2 brand new picks, and handed one to me and one to my sister. :o) We were surprised and thanked him a bunch! I have just a few pics that we took with the guys before the show (my sister didnt snap away like my hubby did at Morehead, unfortunately) and then I have 3 rolls that I took inside during the show. I hope they'll all turn out well, I'll let you know. I guess my reason for not wanting this review posted to the site is because it just seems too personal, you know? All my meetings with the guys directly related back to our meeting them at Morehead and their meeting with Jared. I dont know. I feel weird about it. Something about John's fierceness over that little beat up car, Nathan's utter delight with that children's book.....it's just too emotionally personal, something I dont want to sully by having all those little 12 year old girls on the GGDs and TTB lists that read it on your site e-mailing me and telling me how "awesome" or "waaaay cool" they think it is. It surpassed those terms. I truly think the guys were all touched by their gifts, and I was touched by their reactions. Somehow, to exploit that by allowing a thousand people to read it, it would be like sneaking a video camera into their homes during Christmas with their families, catching those special moments and emotions on video, and then selling copies of it out on the street corner. It would just cheapen it somehow. Does that sound crazy? There is also the food issue. I dont want 10,000 people suddenly trying to give them homemade food, which is potentially dangerous, and I dont think they'd go for that. For them to accept what I gave them was an exception, I'd say, and was only allowed because they'd met me before, and had had a memorable experience with my son. Well, Fay, you were the one person that I DID want to share this with. You've been very sweet to me in the past, giving me parenting advice and such, and I know you'll get what I'm saying. It was a very special, very precious, very priceless time for me, and for the guys as well, I think. (I hope!) Sorry it's sooooo long again, but I'm a writer in my spare time, so it comes easy to me, hehe I hope you'll enjoy it and savor it too. :o) Let me know what you think Ever Your Friend, Lisa Miller Agoostic#3 (Lisa) *Everybody stop yelling!.....You all see that little fellow right there? In the middle of the crowd? With his guitar in the air?.....That little guy is trying to take my job!!!* ~John Rzeznik, referring to my son, Jared, at Morehead, Ky. *Yeah! Absolutely. It sits on my amp every night when I play* ~John Rzeznik's answer when asked on Yahoo Chat if he still has the little black GTO Hot Wheel car that my son gave him in May.

No offense, but I think you'll understand after you read it. Here goes.... :o) My sister and I arrived at Louisville Gardens at almost 6pm. As we'd driven 50 miles to get there, and had had a late start getting on the road, I was afraid that we'd blown our chance to catch the guys, as the main gate would open at 6:30 and the show start at 7:30. We immediately headed for the back of the building, in hopes of finding the tour buses parked there. No buses in sight! So, we started walking down the alley that runs behind the building, and find there's a wine colored van blocking our path. I realized then that the van was pulled up to the back doors of the building, and there's a sign taped on one of the open doors that says "Goo Goo Doll Dressing Rooms" I knew we'd come to the right place! So, we sat down, smiled at the handful of people that were milling about, in and out of those doors. A few minutes later, a guy that I recognized from the Morehead show, one of the Goo guitar techs, came outside. I told him who I was, and that I'd met the guys at Morehead, and mentioned Jared. As soon as I said something about Jared, his face lit up and he remembered exactly who I was. He grinned and said he'd go and get one of the guys to come out. :o) A second later, Mike strolled out the door, saw us and came over. I told him that I had another gift for him, one that I had originally planned to get him, but couldnt find, so instead had gotten him the Wildcat T-shirt that I ended up giving him at Morehead. (I'd mentioned to him at Morehead that I'd been trying to find him a Wildcat golf club head cover, but hadnt had any luck, hence the T-shirt) So I pulled out a whole set of Wildcat blue and white golf club head covers, and he grinned really big. He thanked me and said that he wore the T-shirt I'd given him at Morehead all the time. :o) Then he said that he does enjoy a good game of golf when he's not on the road, and that now he could wear his UK t-shirt to the golf course and he'd match his golf gear, hehehe I asked him what he thought about Jared's video tape that we'd given them at Morehead, and he grinned really big and said he thought it was just great and that they watch it almost every night! That just made me sooooo happy and proud! I could hardly believe it! :o) I took a picture of him with my sister, and he talked to us for a few minutes longer about where we live, Louisville itself, and then he thanked me for the golf club head covers. I told him NO, the golf club covers had been my way of thanking HIM for being so good to my son in Morehead. He grinned again, thanked me anyway, then said he hated to go but he had to get some things done before show time. He didnt seem nearly so shy this time, and my sister commented on how sweet he is. I told her to be prepared, cause every single one of them are just as sweet!! :o) While we'd been talking to Mike, John had slipped by us. I saw him as he was walking away from us, down the alley, towards where the buses were parked on the opposite side of the building from where I had parked. All I saw was a pair of baggy olive green cargo pants, and some strange thing on his head that looked like a floppy, tan colored cowboy hat that had seen better days, hehehe I knew he'd have to come back into the building, so we didnt follow him (I think it's bad form to follow someone around) So, we sat there and waited, hoping perhaps Nathan or Robby would come out in the meantime. Well, it wasnt long before John came back up the alley, and when he saw us, I stood and told him he was just the man I wanted to see. He smiled and I could tell he knew he'd seen me before but couldnt place me. So instead of introducing myself, I asked him to tell me what he thought of my "little Goo head"s video tape, and then it clicked with him. He smiled really big and said he thought it was just great! Unfortunately, I didnt give him time to elaborate, not once I heard him speak. His voice was very quiet, just above a whisper, not at all like he carried on at Morehead. I looked at him seriously and told him that he didnt sound too good. He rolled his eyes a bit, then he grinned and said that he'd be alright, that the doctors had just told him to take it easy. I told him that I really wished he'd just go home and get well. He looked surprised that I would say that, then he looked a little sad and said that he couldn't go home, that they'd already cancelled some shows, and that he just couldnt. I felt really bad for him. To keep things light, and to prevent myself from doing my usual mothering and pecking at him any further, I told him I'd brought him a few things and he smiled. I gave him an 8x10 enlargement of a picture of him and Jared together. The one where they are sharing a laugh and have the eye contact thing going on. The one where Jared had just asked if he could play on stage with him at Morehead and then proceeded to tell John that he wanted to "Rock with the Goos!" I told him I thought it might make a nice keepsake for him, and John smiled, held it up to get a better look, and just grinned. Then I gave him a bottle of UK blue nail polish (I never thought I'd EVER give nail polish to a man! hehe) and he thought that was pretty cool. I told him I didnt get him alot this time because I'd gotten him the double cd set at Morehead, and I asked him how he liked it. He said it was great, that he'd listened to it alot :o) Then I gave him the card that Jared made for him when he found out John was sick. (Get out the hankie, this will almost make you cry!) I told John that Jared had made the card himself, and bless his little heart, he's just learning to write his letters, but he wrote on it: "To John" then a little heart in the middle (for Love) then, "Jared" at the bottom. On the inside he'd written: "I love you" and "Get Well" at the bottom. All this was done squiggly wiggly in crayon, yet you could read it. Jared had also pulled his favorite stickers off one of his Tonka trucks and stuck them on it, and then just basically doodled and stamped all over it, hehe. It was a true labor of love, I'd say, and John said that it was a great thing for him to do, and seemed to really and truly like it. The tear jerking part comes next, though. I handed John a gift from Jared. Something that Jared had brought to me right before I left for the show and told me to give to John. I was surprised at what it was, and almost didnt agree to take it for fear that Jared would regret it later, but he insisted. I handed John a little, beat up, nicked up, black GTO HotWheel car that has been Jared's very favorite forever. He'd gotten it for his first birthday, and has often carried it in his pants pockets and slept with it. It must have cost him a great deal to part with it, because he looked kind of solemn when he told me to give it to John, but he insisted that I should, because he was certain that it would make John feel better. When I handed it to John and explained all that to him, this look passed over his face that was indescribable. He looked up at me and I could tell he was touched. Then he smiled this quiet little half smile, rolled the little car back and forth on his hand for a second, then turned it over and looked at it from all sides, commented that it was a GTO, and grinned. That's all he said, though, which puzzled me, then I thought that maybe I'd been wrong, that maybe he wasn't touched after all, that he was just amused at getting a little junky toy from a little 4 year old kid. He thanked me for the nail polish and photograph, and I told him that it was just my way of saying thanks for him being so good to my son. I told him everybody in our whole town knows how nice they are! And he laughed After that, I put my arm around him (his hands were full) and my sister took a picture of us, then I got one of her with him too. (When the pics were developed, John isnt looking at the camera for that one, he's still looking at the little Hot Wheel and Jared's homemade card in his hand) He talked to us for a moment longer, still making no mention whatsoever about the little car, even though he'd thanked me for everything else. But when he left us to go inside, he suddenly stopped and turned to me in the doorway. Held that little car up in his fist, in a grip so tight his knuckles were white, and said in a voice surprisingly fierce, "You tell him (meaning Jared) that I said thank you VERY much for this, and that I will hang on to it and NEVER let ANYTHING happen to it" I told him I would, watched as he slipped it into his pants pocket, then disappeared inside. Oh, I could have just bawled like a baby! And something made me feel (even my sister commented on it) that John had felt like doing the same. It was a priceless moment, one I'll never forget. While I was trying to decide if I was going to cry or not, Mike came back out with some envelopes in his hand. He grinned at us and asked if we knew where he could find a mail box. I reminded him that we werent from Louisville, so we wouldnt know, but surely there would be one on almost every corner since we were right downtown. He told us to wish him luck, that if he didnt show up for the show to tell everyone he was lost on the streets of downtown Louisville, lol, then he headed off down the alley :o) Well, shortly after that, one of the security guys that had been so nice to us, came out said his supervisor had just came in and had asked what we were doing there in the alley. He said it would probably be best if we went ahead and left. So, we headed to where the tour buses were parked, and waited right next to them for Nathan and Robby. While we were waiting, this older fellow, who was security, came over and asked us what we were doing, and I told him that we were waiting to catch the guys, and that we'd already seen Mike and John. He smiled and said he'd been with them all day and that they seemed like really nice boys. I agreed wholeheartedly and told him about our experience at Morehead. He thought it was really cool, and after I told him that I was there on a "Thank You Mission", he said he understood and said he'd let us wait by the buses as long as we needed to. He was really nice! A few minutes later, around the corner came Nathan :o) After he'd signed Jared's guitar at Morehead, and was so nice to us, telling us about his little girl and stuff, I felt really guilty for not bringing him anything. So, this time, I'd gotten him a gift. An unusual one. As he got closer, I called to him and he came over. He didnt recognize me 'til I told him I was Jared's mom, and then a big grin broke out on his face. I told him that I'd felt really bad about not getting him anything at Morehead, so I'd brought him something this time. His face lit up. Until I told him that what I'd brought was not exactly for HIM. He looked a little confused, but curious. As I placed a book in his hands, a book called '20th Century Treasury of Children's Stories', I explained to him that I remembered him telling us that he had a 2 year old little girl, and that I'd gotten him the book in hopes that he would take the time to sit with her and read to her as I've always done with Jared. He LOVED it!!!! As soon as I laid it in his hands, the man went crazy! He was oooohing and aaaaahing and flipping pages and pointing at the artwork. He was ecstatic! More excited than I ever dreamed he'd be. As it was a compilation book, with everything from Curious George to Madeline to The Star Bellied Sneeches; over 30 books with the original artwork, Nathan was absolutely tickled! I've NEVER seen anyone get so excited about a book before! He was pointing out all this stuff, commenting that this one or that one was a favorite author/artist, he was truly happy. :o) Which made ME happy, because I'd sort of had my doubts about giving the book to him in the first place, but now I KNOW I made the right choice!! As I was watching Nathan and getting a kick out of him with his book, he suddenly held it up and yelled down the street! "Hey! Look what I just got!" And here came John and Mr. Dirty Toes himself! (pardon the expression, but Jared kindly pointed that fact out to Robby when we met them at Morehead, hehe) Robby had a smile on his face. (and shock of all shocks...SHOES on his feet!) John had his things that we'd given him in his hands, grinned, waved, and headed on into the bus. He really looked sick and very tired :o( Nathan pulled Robby over to look at the book before I could even say anything! hehe Robby checked it out for a moment, then looked up at me and I told him who I was, gave him my usual identity- "I'm Jared's mom" He said "Cool! Good to see you again!" and grinned huge! I asked him what he thought about Jared's video, and he just started saying how cool he thought it was, how they were forever confused by how I got them AND Jared into the same video (I shot Jared playing beside a large mirror that reflected the guys playing the HRL show on the big screen tv on the opposite side of the room, fyi) He said they were all tripping because the video showed them playing left handed, and they are all righties, hehehe Really screwed them up! They finally figured out how it was done, and thought it was cool. I told Robby that I'd gotten him a gift, something guaranteed that he would like and use! He looked like a little kid, got that excited expression that a child does when they know they are going to get a surprise. He's so darned cute! I got him a mousepad for his computer that you can put your own picture inside of. I showed him that I'd already put a picture of him and Jared together in it, but got it mainly because I thought he might like to put in a picture of his family. I thought it might help him when he gets to missing them while he's on the road. He loved it! I also presented him (because he and I have a mutual friend that has him on e-mail, and I had asked this person to contact Robby and make sure it was ok) with 2 homemade Rum Cakes, that are a specialty of mine. Well, with John being sick and the guys off the road for a few days, Robby hadnt checked any of his e-mails, so he didnt know I was bringing the cakes. After not hearing anything back from our mutual friend, I decided to take a risk and bake them anyway, hoping like hell that they would accept them, after having remembered me from Morehead. Robby looked surprised that I'd done such a thing, and I told him that I would understand completely if he felt they couldnt accept them, that I'd known I was taking a risk in bringing them. He said no, that it was fine, that it was just great of me to do it for them, and thanked me profusely. He kept saying that he couldnt believe I had taken the time to BAKE something for THEM! He set the cakes down on the sidewalk then gave me a full frontal hug and kissed me on the cheek! :o) Another priceless moment!! Then I had my sister take a picture of me standing between Robby and Nathan (Who had to be got up off the sidewalk, lol! While Robby and I were talking, Nathan had sat down on the sidewalk, leaned up against the building, and was flipping through the book, pointing out "Curious George to my sister!) Robby signed my sister's COA cd liner, and drew her a little GOO :o) Then he noticed the canned food we'd brought, and told us that the fans had donated 50,000 cans to date! He seemed really proud about it. (and should be!) As it was 7pm, everyone had to go!! We had to get inside, and they had to get dressed!! Nathan and Robby thanked me again, Nathan told me once more how much he totally loved the book, then they told us goodbye and that they'd see us in a little while. We started heading for the front gate. We were in a hurry because the gates had been open for over a half hour and we were certain we were too late to ANYWHERE near the front, as this show was Gen. Admn. Before we could make it past the tour buses, the security fellow that had let us remain by the buses came over and started talking to us again because he'd seen our exchange with the guys and just thought it was fabulous.

He looked at his watch, and I could tell by his face that he knew he'd been holding us up and that it was LATE. I told him we'd probably screwed up by waiting around so long to see the guys, but it was definately worth it, but now we would NEVER find a good view of the stage on the floor like we wanted. He struggled with himself for a second, came to a mental decision, and told us to follow him! He took us back around to the dressing room doors where we'd met Mike and John earlier, took us in, through that room, down a hallway passing us right by a whole crew of security, telling them it was ok, that we were with him! I couldnt believe it when we found ourselves entering the arena from behind the security barriers! He introduced us to his son, who also worked there, told him to take care of our extra stuff (gift bags, canned food, etc) and to show us where we could pick them up after the show. He then walked us out to the front barrier, opened a gate, and let us out right in front of the stage! We thanked him, and then I remembered our tickets in my pocket. I handed them to him and asked him if he would take them out front and give them to someone outside that didnt have tickets. I mean, I'd already paid for them, so SOMEBODY should get to use them! lol He grinned and said he would, told us to have a blast and enjoy ourselves. A really really cool guy!! The next thing we did was go around to the other side of the stage, on John's side, because we just couldnt see anything on our side (Robby's) but huge speakers on the stage. We were too far out on the edge of the crowd. My aunt and cousin were to meet us at the show, (yes, I'm determined to convert EVERYONE to Goo, lol!) and we got lucky enough to find them on our way around. They joined us, and we managed to work our way to just left of John's mic stand, and were in the second and third rows, so we could see. I didnt care for Frog Pond, the opening band (which John later told us was "An ass whuppin that you deserved for acting so wild" hehe). Fastball was pretty good, they were fun. I knew we were in trouble as soon as the opening bands started playing, because during the short time they were on, already about 15 people were crowd surfing. I'd never been in a mosh pit before and it got really really ugly! (My aunt almost got into a fist fight! ugh!) By the time the guys came on, it was terrible! My poor sister got a whole glass of Pepsi dumped on her head, in her face as soon as Dizzy opened! My cousin Ashley had to leave to go sit in the stands because she was getting too hot and light headed, so my aunt left with her. My sister and I remained, and she was almost crying from the Pepsi in her eyes. She took it pretty well, other than her eyes burning for a long time, but I was scared to death she'd hate me for bringing her!! (she'd never been to a concert before) I wont go into anymore detail about how bad it got, but I will say that John stopped the music dead right in the middle of Naked and told everybody to calm down. He also offered some guy his money back. Apparently the guy was fighting (I couldnt see) and John was pissed about it. He sang incredibly well, much better than I was expecting when I had talked to him earlier. He worked the crowd alot (and was still wearing that silly hat, btw!), but didnt carry on his verbal nonsense like he did at Morehead. He did tell everyone that the doctors had said he'd "F*cked up" his throat, but then laughed and said they'd told him he was ugly too! He was in a playful mood, and made a few short jokes, but all in all, you could tell he wasnt cutting loose like normal. Singing wise, he was as fabulous as ever, though. I did notice on Iris that on the chorus he took a different approach, bringing it down a bit, but it worked out great, and no one seemed to notice or mind. He did wonderful! I noticed him slipping off between songs to sip from a coffee mug sitting on one of the speakers. He had a water bottle as well (which he later tossed out to a girl standing directly in front of me) but he only drank from it once. So I assume whatever was in that coffee cup was medicinal for his throat. Robby was his usual bubbly, energetic self, playing with the crowd, working his own brand of magic. He played fabulously, and I noticed that he kept an eye on John, during almost every song, especially the vocally demanding choruses, Robby would get close to John and give him a look, kind of asking him silently with his eyes if he was ok. John would nod, Robby would grin, and they'd just rock together! They have great chemistry and the crowd eats it up! At the end of the show, John brought out this white guitar, and tried to smash it. It must have been one well made guitar, because he threw it 4 times across the stage (I dont know why he didnt just beat it on the floor) and it still didnt break apart. He finally shrugged and gave up. The whole show went well, and if I hadnt been stuck in the middle of a bunch of rude, shoving, pushing, pulling people, I would have enjoyed it. It was definately NOT an equal to Morehead! After the show, the guitar tech that remembered me from Morehead, the one who we had talked to earlier by the dressing room doors, he saw me, grinned, came over to the edge of the stage, and tried to toss me a guitar pick. One went over my head and someone else got it, and 2 landed on the floor in front of me, behind the barrier, and the security guard picked them up and gave one to someone else and stuck the other in his own pocket, although the tech was trying to tell him that they'd been intended for me. I gave up, told him thanks for trying, then went off to find my stuff backstage. We still had to put our canned goods in the box out front, so we came back through the arena, and I saw the guitar tech again on the stage. I went over to tell him goodbye, and thanked him for telling the guys I was outside earlier. I started for the door and got half way across the floor before he yelled for me. I turned and he motioned for me to come back. I did, and he dug into his pocket and pulled out 2 brand new picks, and handed one to me and one to my sister. :o) We were surprised and thanked him a bunch! I have just a few pics that we took with the guys before the show (my sister didnt snap away like my hubby did at Morehead, unfortunately) and then I have 3 rolls that I took inside during the show. I hope they'll all turn out well, I'll let you know. I guess my reason for not wanting this review posted to the site is because it just seems too personal, you know? All my meetings with the guys directly related back to our meeting them at Morehead and their meeting with Jared. I dont know. I feel weird about it. Something about John's fierceness over that little beat up car, Nathan's utter delight with that children's book.....it's just too emotionally personal, something I dont want to sully by having all those little 12 year old girls on the GGDs and TTB lists that read it on your site e-mailing me and telling me how "awesome" or "waaaay cool" they think it is. It surpassed those terms. I truly think the guys were all touched by their gifts, and I was touched by their reactions. Somehow, to exploit that by allowing a thousand people to read it, it would be like sneaking a video camera into their homes during Christmas with their families, catching those special moments and emotions on video, and then selling copies of it out on the street corner. It would just cheapen it somehow. Does that sound crazy? There is also the food issue. I dont want 10,000 people suddenly trying to give them homemade food, which is potentially dangerous, and I dont think they'd go for that. For them to accept what I gave them was an exception, I'd say, and was only allowed because they'd met me before, and had had a memorable experience with my son. Well, Fay, you were the one person that I DID want to share this with. You've been very sweet to me in the past, giving me parenting advice and such, and I know you'll get what I'm saying. It was a very special, very precious, very priceless time for me, and for the guys as well, I think. (I hope!) Sorry it's sooooo long again, but I'm a writer in my spare time, so it comes easy to me, hehe I hope you'll enjoy it and savor it too. :o) Let me know what you think Ever Your Friend, Lisa Miller Agoostic#3 (Lisa) *Everybody stop yelling!.....You all see that little fellow right there?

No offense, but I think you'll understand after you read it. Here goes.... :o) My sister and I arrived at Louisville Gardens at almost 6pm. As we'd driven 50 miles to get there, and had had a late start getting on the road, I was afraid that we'd blown our chance to catch the guys, as the main gate would open at 6:30 and the show start at 7:30. We immediately headed for the back of the building, in hopes of finding the tour buses parked there. No buses in sight! So, we started walking down the alley that runs behind the building, and find there's a wine colored van blocking our path. I realized then that the van was pulled up to the back doors of the building, and there's a sign taped on one of the open doors that says "Goo Goo Doll Dressing Rooms" I knew we'd come to the right place! So, we sat down, smiled at the handful of people that were milling about, in and out of those doors. A few minutes later, a guy that I recognized from the Morehead show, one of the Goo guitar techs, came outside. I told him who I was, and that I'd met the guys at Morehead, and mentioned Jared. As soon as I said something about Jared, his face lit up and he remembered exactly who I was. He grinned and said he'd go and get one of the guys to come out. :o) A second later, Mike strolled out the door, saw us and came over. I told him that I had another gift for him, one that I had originally planned to get him, but couldnt find, so instead had gotten him the Wildcat T-shirt that I ended up giving him at Morehead. (I'd mentioned to him at Morehead that I'd been trying to find him a Wildcat golf club head cover, but hadnt had any luck, hence the T-shirt) So I pulled out a whole set of Wildcat blue and white golf club head covers, and he grinned really big. He thanked me and said that he wore the T-shirt I'd given him at Morehead all the time. :o) Then he said that he does enjoy a good game of golf when he's not on the road, and that now he could wear his UK t-shirt to the golf course and he'd match his golf gear, hehehe I asked him what he thought about Jared's video tape that we'd given them at Morehead, and he grinned really big and said he thought it was just great and that they watch it almost every night! That just made me sooooo happy and proud! I could hardly believe it! :o) I took a picture of him with my sister, and he talked to us for a few minutes longer about where we live, Louisville itself, and then he thanked me for the golf club head covers. I told him NO, the golf club covers had been my way of thanking HIM for being so good to my son in Morehead. He grinned again, thanked me anyway, then said he hated to go but he had to get some things done before show time. He didnt seem nearly so shy this time, and my sister commented on how sweet he is. I told her to be prepared, cause every single one of them are just as sweet!! :o) While we'd been talking to Mike, John had slipped by us. I saw him as he was walking away from us, down the alley, towards where the buses were parked on the opposite side of the building from where I had parked. All I saw was a pair of baggy olive green cargo pants, and some strange thing on his head that looked like a floppy, tan colored cowboy hat that had seen better days, hehehe I knew he'd have to come back into the building, so we didnt follow him (I think it's bad form to follow someone around) So, we sat there and waited, hoping perhaps Nathan or Robby would come out in the meantime. Well, it wasnt long before John came back up the alley, and when he saw us, I stood and told him he was just the man I wanted to see. He smiled and I could tell he knew he'd seen me before but couldnt place me. So instead of introducing myself, I asked him to tell me what he thought of my "little Goo head"s video tape, and then it clicked with him. He smiled really big and said he thought it was just great! Unfortunately, I didnt give him time to elaborate, not once I heard him speak. His voice was very quiet, just above a whisper, not at all like he carried on at Morehead. I looked at him seriously and told him that he didnt sound too good. He rolled his eyes a bit, then he grinned and said that he'd be alright, that the doctors had just told him to take it easy. I told him that I really wished he'd just go home and get well. He looked surprised that I would say that, then he looked a little sad and said that he couldn't go home, that they'd already cancelled some shows, and that he just couldnt. I felt really bad for him. To keep things light, and to prevent myself from doing my usual mothering and pecking at him any further, I told him I'd brought him a few things and he smiled. I gave him an 8x10 enlargement of a picture of him and Jared together. The one where they are sharing a laugh and have the eye contact thing going on. The one where Jared had just asked if he could play on stage with him at Morehead and then proceeded to tell John that he wanted to "Rock with the Goos!" I told him I thought it might make a nice keepsake for him, and John smiled, held it up to get a better look, and just grinned. Then I gave him a bottle of UK blue nail polish (I never thought I'd EVER give nail polish to a man! hehe) and he thought that was pretty cool. I told him I didnt get him alot this time because I'd gotten him the double cd set at Morehead, and I asked him how he liked it. He said it was great, that he'd listened to it alot :o) Then I gave him the card that Jared made for him when he found out John was sick. (Get out the hankie, this will almost make you cry!) I told John that Jared had made the card himself, and bless his little heart, he's just learning to write his letters, but he wrote on it: "To John" then a little heart in the middle (for Love) then, "Jared" at the bottom. On the inside he'd written: "I love you" and "Get Well" at the bottom. All this was done squiggly wiggly in crayon, yet you could read it. Jared had also pulled his favorite stickers off one of his Tonka trucks and stuck them on it, and then just basically doodled and stamped all over it, hehe. It was a true labor of love, I'd say, and John said that it was a great thing for him to do, and seemed to really and truly like it. The tear jerking part comes next, though. I handed John a gift from Jared. Something that Jared had brought to me right before I left for the show and told me to give to John. I was surprised at what it was, and almost didnt agree to take it for fear that Jared would regret it later, but he insisted. I handed John a little, beat up, nicked up, black GTO HotWheel car that has been Jared's very favorite forever. He'd gotten it for his first birthday, and has often carried it in his pants pockets and slept with it. It must have cost him a great deal to part with it, because he looked kind of solemn when he told me to give it to John, but he insisted that I should, because he was certain that it would make John feel better. When I handed it to John and explained all that to him, this look passed over his face that was indescribable. He looked up at me and I could tell he was touched. Then he smiled this quiet little half smile, rolled the little car back and forth on his hand for a second, then turned it over and looked at it from all sides, commented that it was a GTO, and grinned. That's all he said, though, which puzzled me, then I thought that maybe I'd been wrong, that maybe he wasn't touched after all, that he was just amused at getting a little junky toy from a little 4 year old kid. He thanked me for the nail polish and photograph, and I told him that it was just my way of saying thanks for him being so good to my son. I told him everybody in our whole town knows how nice they are! And he laughed After that, I put my arm around him (his hands were full) and my sister took a picture of us, then I got one of her with him too. (When the pics were developed, John isnt looking at the camera for that one, he's still looking at the little Hot Wheel and Jared's homemade card in his hand) He talked to us for a moment longer, still making no mention whatsoever about the little car, even though he'd thanked me for everything else. But when he left us to go inside, he suddenly stopped and turned to me in the doorway. Held that little car up in his fist, in a grip so tight his knuckles were white, and said in a voice surprisingly fierce, "You tell him (meaning Jared) that I said thank you VERY much for this, and that I will hang on to it and NEVER let ANYTHING happen to it" I told him I would, watched as he slipped it into his pants pocket, then disappeared inside. Oh, I could have just bawled like a baby! And something made me feel (even my sister commented on it) that John had felt like doing the same. It was a priceless moment, one I'll never forget. While I was trying to decide if I was going to cry or not, Mike came back out with some envelopes in his hand. He grinned at us and asked if we knew where he could find a mail box. I reminded him that we werent from Louisville, so we wouldnt know, but surely there would be one on almost every corner since we were right downtown. He told us to wish him luck, that if he didnt show up for the show to tell everyone he was lost on the streets of downtown Louisville, lol, then he headed off down the alley :o) Well, shortly after that, one of the security guys that had been so nice to us, came out said his supervisor had just came in and had asked what we were doing there in the alley. He said it would probably be best if we went ahead and left. So, we headed to where the tour buses were parked, and waited right next to them for Nathan and Robby. While we were waiting, this older fellow, who was security, came over and asked us what we were doing, and I told him that we were waiting to catch the guys, and that we'd already seen Mike and John. He smiled and said he'd been with them all day and that they seemed like really nice boys. I agreed wholeheartedly and told him about our experience at Morehead. He thought it was really cool, and after I told him that I was there on a "Thank You Mission", he said he understood and said he'd let us wait by the buses as long as we needed to. He was really nice! A few minutes later, around the corner came Nathan :o) After he'd signed Jared's guitar at Morehead, and was so nice to us, telling us about his little girl and stuff, I felt really guilty for not bringing him anything. So, this time, I'd gotten him a gift. An unusual one. As he got closer, I called to him and he came over. He didnt recognize me 'til I told him I was Jared's mom, and then a big grin broke out on his face. I told him that I'd felt really bad about not getting him anything at Morehead, so I'd brought him something this time. His face lit up. Until I told him that what I'd brought was not exactly for HIM. He looked a little confused, but curious. As I placed a book in his hands, a book called '20th Century Treasury of Children's Stories', I explained to him that I remembered him telling us that he had a 2 year old little girl, and that I'd gotten him the book in hopes that he would take the time to sit with her and read to her as I've always done with Jared. He LOVED it!!!! As soon as I laid it in his hands, the man went crazy! He was oooohing and aaaaahing and flipping pages and pointing at the artwork. He was ecstatic! More excited than I ever dreamed he'd be. As it was a compilation book, with everything from Curious George to Madeline to The Star Bellied Sneeches; over 30 books with the original artwork, Nathan was absolutely tickled! I've NEVER seen anyone get so excited about a book before! He was pointing out all this stuff, commenting that this one or that one was a favorite author/artist, he was truly happy. :o) Which made ME happy, because I'd sort of had my doubts about giving the book to him in the first place, but now I KNOW I made the right choice!! As I was watching Nathan and getting a kick out of him with his book, he suddenly held it up and yelled down the street! "Hey! Look what I just got!" And here came John and Mr. Dirty Toes himself! (pardon the expression, but Jared kindly pointed that fact out to Robby when we met them at Morehead, hehe) Robby had a smile on his face. (and shock of all shocks...SHOES on his feet!) John had his things that we'd given him in his hands, grinned, waved, and headed on into the bus. He really looked sick and very tired :o( Nathan pulled Robby over to look at the book before I could even say anything! hehe Robby checked it out for a moment, then looked up at me and I told him who I was, gave him my usual identity- "I'm Jared's mom" He said "Cool! Good to see you again!" and grinned huge! I asked him what he thought about Jared's video, and he just started saying how cool he thought it was, how they were forever confused by how I got them AND Jared into the same video (I shot Jared playing beside a large mirror that reflected the guys playing the HRL show on the big screen tv on the opposite side of the room, fyi) He said they were all tripping because the video showed them playing left handed, and they are all righties, hehehe Really screwed them up! They finally figured out how it was done, and thought it was cool. I told Robby that I'd gotten him a gift, something guaranteed that he would like and use! He looked like a little kid, got that excited expression that a child does when they know they are going to get a surprise. He's so darned cute! I got him a mousepad for his computer that you can put your own picture inside of. I showed him that I'd already put a picture of him and Jared together in it, but got it mainly because I thought he might like to put in a picture of his family. I thought it might help him when he gets to missing them while he's on the road. He loved it! I also presented him (because he and I have a mutual friend that has him on e-mail, and I had asked this person to contact Robby and make sure it was ok) with 2 homemade Rum Cakes, that are a specialty of mine. Well, with John being sick and the guys off the road for a few days, Robby hadnt checked any of his e-mails, so he didnt know I was bringing the cakes. After not hearing anything back from our mutual friend, I decided to take a risk and bake them anyway, hoping like hell that they would accept them, after having remembered me from Morehead. Robby looked surprised that I'd done such a thing, and I told him that I would understand completely if he felt they couldnt accept them, that I'd known I was taking a risk in bringing them. He said no, that it was fine, that it was just great of me to do it for them, and thanked me profusely. He kept saying that he couldnt believe I had taken the time to BAKE something for THEM! He set the cakes down on the sidewalk then gave me a full frontal hug and kissed me on the cheek! :o) Another priceless moment!! Then I had my sister take a picture of me standing between Robby and Nathan (Who had to be got up off the sidewalk, lol! While Robby and I were talking, Nathan had sat down on the sidewalk, leaned up against the building, and was flipping through the book, pointing out "Curious George to my sister!) Robby signed my sister's COA cd liner, and drew her a little GOO :o) Then he noticed the canned food we'd brought, and told us that the fans had donated 50,000 cans to date! He seemed really proud about it. (and should be!) As it was 7pm, everyone had to go!! We had to get inside, and they had to get dressed!! Nathan and Robby thanked me again, Nathan told me once more how much he totally loved the book, then they told us goodbye and that they'd see us in a little while. We started heading for the front gate. We were in a hurry because the gates had been open for over a half hour and we were certain we were too late to ANYWHERE near the front, as this show was Gen. Admn. Before we could make it past the tour buses, the security fellow that had let us remain by the buses came over and started talking to us again because he'd seen our exchange with the guys and just thought it was fabulous. He started telling us about some of the shows he had worked over the years, and I got a sinking feeling because I didnt want to be rude and cut him off, but our chances of getting good spots for the show were gone. It was 15 minutes til show time. At the first opportunity, I told him we were sorry to go but we HAD to get inside. He looked at his watch, and I could tell by his face that he knew he'd been holding us up and that it was LATE. I told him we'd probably screwed up by waiting around so long to see the guys, but it was definately worth it, but now we would NEVER find a good view of the stage on the floor like we wanted. He struggled with himself for a second, came to a mental decision, and told us to follow him! He took us back around to the dressing room doors where we'd met Mike and John earlier, took us in, through that room, down a hallway passing us right by a whole crew of security, telling them it was ok, that we were with him! I couldnt believe it when we found ourselves entering the arena from behind the security barriers! He introduced us to his son, who also worked there, told him to take care of our extra stuff (gift bags, canned food, etc) and to show us where we could pick them up after the show. He then walked us out to the front barrier, opened a gate, and let us out right in front of the stage! We thanked him, and then I remembered our tickets in my pocket. I handed them to him and asked him if he would take them out front and give them to someone outside that didnt have tickets. I mean, I'd already paid for them, so SOMEBODY should get to use them! lol He grinned and said he would, told us to have a blast and enjoy ourselves. A really really cool guy!! The next thing we did was go around to the other side of the stage, on John's side, because we just couldnt see anything on our side (Robby's) but huge speakers on the stage. We were too far out on the edge of the crowd. My aunt and cousin were to meet us at the show, (yes, I'm determined to convert EVERYONE to Goo, lol!) and we got lucky enough to find them on our way around. They joined us, and we managed to work our way to just left of John's mic stand, and were in the second and third rows, so we could see. I didnt care for Frog Pond, the opening band (which John later told us was "An ass whuppin that you deserved for acting so wild" hehe). Fastball was pretty good, they were fun. I knew we were in trouble as soon as the opening bands started playing, because during the short time they were on, already about 15 people were crowd surfing. I'd never been in a mosh pit before and it got really really ugly! (My aunt almost got into a fist fight! ugh!) By the time the guys came on, it was terrible! My poor sister got a whole glass of Pepsi dumped on her head, in her face as soon as Dizzy opened! My cousin Ashley had to leave to go sit in the stands because she was getting too hot and light headed, so my aunt left with her. My sister and I remained, and she was almost crying from the Pepsi in her eyes. She took it pretty well, other than her eyes burning for a long time, but I was scared to death she'd hate me for bringing her!! (she'd never been to a concert before) I wont go into anymore detail about how bad it got, but I will say that John stopped the music dead right in the middle of Naked and told everybody to calm down. He also offered some guy his money back. Apparently the guy was fighting (I couldnt see) and John was pissed about it. He sang incredibly well, much better than I was expecting when I had talked to him earlier. He worked the crowd alot (and was still wearing that silly hat, btw!), but didnt carry on his verbal nonsense like he did at Morehead. He did tell everyone that the doctors had said he'd "F*cked up" his throat, but then laughed and said they'd told him he was ugly too! He was in a playful mood, and made a few short jokes, but all in all, you could tell he wasnt cutting loose like normal. Singing wise, he was as fabulous as ever, though. I did notice on Iris that on the chorus he took a different approach, bringing it down a bit, but it worked out great, and no one seemed to notice or mind. He did wonderful! I noticed him slipping off between songs to sip from a coffee mug sitting on one of the speakers. He had a water bottle as well (which he later tossed out to a girl standing directly in front of me) but he only drank from it once. So I assume whatever was in that coffee cup was medicinal for his throat. Robby was his usual bubbly, energetic self, playing with the crowd, working his own brand of magic. He played fabulously, and I noticed that he kept an eye on John, during almost every song, especially the vocally demanding choruses, Robby would get close to John and give him a look, kind of asking him silently with his eyes if he was ok. John would nod, Robby would grin, and they'd just rock together! They have great chemistry and the crowd eats it up! At the end of the show, John brought out this white guitar, and tried to smash it. It must have been one well made guitar, because he threw it 4 times across the stage (I dont know why he didnt just beat it on the floor) and it still didnt break apart. He finally shrugged and gave up. The whole show went well, and if I hadnt been stuck in the middle of a bunch of rude, shoving, pushing, pulling people, I would have enjoyed it. It was definately NOT an equal to Morehead! After the show, the guitar tech that remembered me from Morehead, the one who we had talked to earlier by the dressing room doors, he saw me, grinned, came over to the edge of the stage, and tried to toss me a guitar pick. One went over my head and someone else got it, and 2 landed on the floor in front of me, behind the barrier, and the security guard picked them up and gave one to someone else and stuck the other in his own pocket, although the tech was trying to tell him that they'd been intended for me. I gave up, told him thanks for trying, then went off to find my stuff backstage. We still had to put our canned goods in the box out front, so we came back through the arena, and I saw the guitar tech again on the stage. I went over to tell him goodbye, and thanked him for telling the guys I was outside earlier. I started for the door and got half way across the floor before he yelled for me. I turned and he motioned for me to come back. I did, and he dug into his pocket and pulled out 2 brand new picks, and handed one to me and one to my sister. :o) We were surprised and thanked him a bunch! I have just a few pics that we took with the guys before the show (my sister didnt snap away like my hubby did at Morehead, unfortunately) and then I have 3 rolls that I took inside during the show. I hope they'll all turn out well, I'll let you know. I guess my reason for not wanting this review posted to the site is because it just seems too personal, you know? All my meetings with the guys directly related back to our meeting them at Morehead and their meeting with Jared. I dont know. I feel weird about it. Something about John's fierceness over that little beat up car, Nathan's utter delight with that children's book.....it's just too emotionally personal, something I dont want to sully by having all those little 12 year old girls on the GGDs and TTB lists that read it on your site e-mailing me and telling me how "awesome" or "waaaay cool" they think it is. It surpassed those terms. I truly think the guys were all touched by their gifts, and I was touched by their reactions. Somehow, to exploit that by allowing a thousand people to read it, it would be like sneaking a video camera into their homes during Christmas with their families, catching those special moments and emotions on video, and then selling copies of it out on the street corner. It would just cheapen it somehow. Does that sound crazy? There is also the food issue. I dont want 10,000 people suddenly trying to give them homemade food, which is potentially dangerous, and I dont think they'd go for that. For them to accept what I gave them was an exception, I'd say, and was only allowed because they'd met me before, and had had a memorable experience with my son. Well, Fay, you were the one person that I DID want to share this with. You've been very sweet to me in the past, giving me parenting advice and such, and I know you'll get what I'm saying. It was a very special, very precious, very priceless time for me, and for the guys as well, I think. (I hope!) Sorry it's sooooo long again, but I'm a writer in my spare time, so it comes easy to me, hehe I hope you'll enjoy it and savor it too. :o) Let me know what you think Ever Your Friend, Lisa Miller Agoostic#3 (Lisa) *Everybody stop yelling!.....You all see that little fellow right there?

No offense, but I think you'll understand after you read it. Here goes.... :o) My sister and I arrived at Louisville Gardens at almost 6pm. As we'd driven 50 miles to get there, and had had a late start getting on the road, I was afraid that we'd blown our chance to catch the guys, as the main gate would open at 6:30 and the show start at 7:30. We immediately headed for the back of the building, in hopes of finding the tour buses parked there. No buses in sight! So, we started walking down the alley that runs behind the building, and find there's a wine colored van blocking our path. I realized then that the van was pulled up to the back doors of the building, and there's a sign taped on one of the open doors that says "Goo Goo Doll Dressing Rooms" I knew we'd come to the right place! So, we sat down, smiled at the handful of people that were milling about, in and out of those doors. A few minutes later, a guy that I recognized from the Morehead show, one of the Goo guitar techs, came outside. I told him who I was, and that I'd met the guys at Morehead, and mentioned Jared. As soon as I said something about Jared, his face lit up and he remembered exactly who I was. He grinned and said he'd go and get one of the guys to come out. :o) A second later, Mike strolled out the door, saw us and came over. I told him that I had another gift for him, one that I had originally planned to get him, but couldnt find, so instead had gotten him the Wildcat T-shirt that I ended up giving him at Morehead. (I'd mentioned to him at Morehead that I'd been trying to find him a Wildcat golf club head cover, but hadnt had any luck, hence the T-shirt) So I pulled out a whole set of Wildcat blue and white golf club head covers, and he grinned really big. He thanked me and said that he wore the T-shirt I'd given him at Morehead all the time. :o) Then he said that he does enjoy a good game of golf when he's not on the road, and that now he could wear his UK t-shirt to the golf course and he'd match his golf gear, hehehe I asked him what he thought about Jared's video tape that we'd given them at Morehead, and he grinned really big and said he thought it was just great and that they watch it almost every night! That just made me sooooo happy and proud! I could hardly believe it! :o) I took a picture of him with my sister, and he talked to us for a few minutes longer about where we live, Louisville itself, and then he thanked me for the golf club head covers. I told him NO, the golf club covers had been my way of thanking HIM for being so good to my son in Morehead. He grinned again, thanked me anyway, then said he hated to go but he had to get some things done before show time. He didnt seem nearly so shy this time, and my sister commented on how sweet he is. I told her to be prepared, cause every single one of them are just as sweet!! :o) While we'd been talking to Mike, John had slipped by us. I saw him as he was walking away from us, down the alley, towards where the buses were parked on the opposite side of the building from where I had parked. All I saw was a pair of baggy olive green cargo pants, and some strange thing on his head that looked like a floppy, tan colored cowboy hat that had seen better days, hehehe I knew he'd have to come back into the building, so we didnt follow him (I think it's bad form to follow someone around) So, we sat there and waited, hoping perhaps Nathan or Robby would come out in the meantime. Well, it wasnt long before John came back up the alley, and when he saw us, I stood and told him he was just the man I wanted to see. He smiled and I could tell he knew he'd seen me before but couldnt place me. So instead of introducing myself, I asked him to tell me what he thought of my "little Goo head"s video tape, and then it clicked with him. He smiled really big and said he thought it was just great! Unfortunately, I didnt give him time to elaborate, not once I heard him speak. His voice was very quiet, just above a whisper, not at all like he carried on at Morehead. I looked at him seriously and told him that he didnt sound too good. He rolled his eyes a bit, then he grinned and said that he'd be alright, that the doctors had just told him to take it easy. I told him that I really wished he'd just go home and get well. He looked surprised that I would say that, then he looked a little sad and said that he couldn't go home, that they'd already cancelled some shows, and that he just couldnt. I felt really bad for him. To keep things light, and to prevent myself from doing my usual mothering and pecking at him any further, I told him I'd brought him a few things and he smiled. I gave him an 8x10 enlargement of a picture of him and Jared together. The one where they are sharing a laugh and have the eye contact thing going on. The one where Jared had just asked if he could play on stage with him at Morehead and then proceeded to tell John that he wanted to "Rock with the Goos!" I told him I thought it might make a nice keepsake for him, and John smiled, held it up to get a better look, and just grinned. Then I gave him a bottle of UK blue nail polish (I never thought I'd EVER give nail polish to a man! hehe) and he thought that was pretty cool. I told him I didnt get him alot this time because I'd gotten him the double cd set at Morehead, and I asked him how he liked it. He said it was great, that he'd listened to it alot :o) Then I gave him the card that Jared made for him when he found out John was sick. (Get out the hankie, this will almost make you cry!) I told John that Jared had made the card himself, and bless his little heart, he's just learning to write his letters, but he wrote on it: "To John" then a little heart in the middle (for Love) then, "Jared" at the bottom. On the inside he'd written: "I love you" and "Get Well" at the bottom. All this was done squiggly wiggly in crayon, yet you could read it. Jared had also pulled his favorite stickers off one of his Tonka trucks and stuck them on it, and then just basically doodled and stamped all over it, hehe. It was a true labor of love, I'd say, and John said that it was a great thing for him to do, and seemed to really and truly like it. The tear jerking part comes next, though. I handed John a gift from Jared. Something that Jared had brought to me right before I left for the show and told me to give to John. I was surprised at what it was, and almost didnt agree to take it for fear that Jared would regret it later, but he insisted. I handed John a little, beat up, nicked up, black GTO HotWheel car that has been Jared's very favorite forever. He'd gotten it for his first birthday, and has often carried it in his pants pockets and slept with it. It must have cost him a great deal to part with it, because he looked kind of solemn when he told me to give it to John, but he insisted that I should, because he was certain that it would make John feel better. When I handed it to John and explained all that to him, this look passed over his face that was indescribable. He looked up at me and I could tell he was touched. Then he smiled this quiet little half smile, rolled the little car back and forth on his hand for a second, then turned it over and looked at it from all sides, commented that it was a GTO, and grinned. That's all he said, though, which puzzled me, then I thought that maybe I'd been wrong, that maybe he wasn't touched after all, that he was just amused at getting a little junky toy from a little 4 year old kid. He thanked me for the nail polish and photograph, and I told him that it was just my way of saying thanks for him being so good to my son. I told him everybody in our whole town knows how nice they are! And he laughed After that, I put my arm around him (his hands were full) and my sister took a picture of us, then I got one of her with him too. (When the pics were developed, John isnt looking at the camera for that one, he's still looking at the little Hot Wheel and Jared's homemade card in his hand) He talked to us for a moment longer, still making no mention whatsoever about the little car, even though he'd thanked me for everything else. But when he left us to go inside, he suddenly stopped and turned to me in the doorway. Held that little car up in his fist, in a grip so tight his knuckles were white, and said in a voice surprisingly fierce, "You tell him (meaning Jared) that I said thank you VERY much for this, and that I will hang on to it and NEVER let ANYTHING happen to it" I told him I would, watched as he slipped it into his pants pocket, then disappeared inside. Oh, I could have just bawled like a baby! And something made me feel (even my sister commented on it) that John had felt like doing the same. It was a priceless moment, one I'll never forget. While I was trying to decide if I was going to cry or not, Mike came back out with some envelopes in his hand. He grinned at us and asked if we knew where he could find a mail box. I reminded him that we werent from Louisville, so we wouldnt know, but surely there would be one on almost every corner since we were right downtown. He told us to wish him luck, that if he didnt show up for the show to tell everyone he was lost on the streets of downtown Louisville, lol, then he headed off down the alley :o) Well, shortly after that, one of the security guys that had been so nice to us, came out said his supervisor had just came in and had asked what we were doing there in the alley. He said it would probably be best if we went ahead and left. So, we headed to where the tour buses were parked, and waited right next to them for Nathan and Robby. While we were waiting, this older fellow, who was security, came over and asked us what we were doing, and I told him that we were waiting to catch the guys, and that we'd already seen Mike and John. He smiled and said he'd been with them all day and that they seemed like really nice boys. I agreed wholeheartedly and told him about our experience at Morehead. He thought it was really cool, and after I told him that I was there on a "Thank You Mission", he said he understood and said he'd let us wait by the buses as long as we needed to. He was really nice! A few minutes later, around the corner came Nathan :o) After he'd signed Jared's guitar at Morehead, and was so nice to us, telling us about his little girl and stuff, I felt really guilty for not bringing him anything. So, this time, I'd gotten him a gift. An unusual one. As he got closer, I called to him and he came over. He didnt recognize me 'til I told him I was Jared's mom, and then a big grin broke out on his face. I told him that I'd felt really bad about not getting him anything at Morehead, so I'd brought him something this time. His face lit up. Until I told him that what I'd brought was not exactly for HIM. He looked a little confused, but curious. As I placed a book in his hands, a book called '20th Century Treasury of Children's Stories', I explained to him that I remembered him telling us that he had a 2 year old little girl, and that I'd gotten him the book in hopes that he would take the time to sit with her and read to her as I've always done with Jared. He LOVED it!!!! As soon as I laid it in his hands, the man went crazy! He was oooohing and aaaaahing and flipping pages and pointing at the artwork. He was ecstatic! More excited than I ever dreamed he'd be. As it was a compilation book, with everything from Curious George to Madeline to The Star Bellied Sneeches; over 30 books with the original artwork, Nathan was absolutely tickled! I've NEVER seen anyone get so excited about a book before! He was pointing out all this stuff, commenting that this one or that one was a favorite author/artist, he was truly happy. :o) Which made ME happy, because I'd sort of had my doubts about giving the book to him in the first place, but now I KNOW I made the right choice!! As I was watching Nathan and getting a kick out of him with his book, he suddenly held it up and yelled down the street! "Hey! Look what I just got!" And here came John and Mr. Dirty Toes himself! (pardon the expression, but Jared kindly pointed that fact out to Robby when we met them at Morehead, hehe) Robby had a smile on his face. (and shock of all shocks...SHOES on his feet!) John had his things that we'd given him in his hands, grinned, waved, and headed on into the bus. He really looked sick and very tired :o( Nathan pulled Robby over to look at the book before I could even say anything! hehe Robby checked it out for a moment, then looked up at me and I told him who I was, gave him my usual identity- "I'm Jared's mom" He said "Cool! Good to see you again!" and grinned huge! I asked him what he thought about Jared's video, and he just started saying how cool he thought it was, how they were forever confused by how I got them AND Jared into the same video (I shot Jared playing beside a large mirror that reflected the guys playing the HRL show on the big screen tv on the opposite side of the room, fyi) He said they were all tripping because the video showed them playing left handed, and they are all righties, hehehe Really screwed them up! They finally figured out how it was done, and thought it was cool. I told Robby that I'd gotten him a gift, something guaranteed that he would like and use! He looked like a little kid, got that excited expression that a child does when they know they are going to get a surprise. He's so darned cute! I got him a mousepad for his computer that you can put your own picture inside of. I showed him that I'd already put a picture of him and Jared together in it, but got it mainly because I thought he might like to put in a picture of his family. I thought it might help him when he gets to missing them while he's on the road. He loved it! I also presented him (because he and I have a mutual friend that has him on e-mail, and I had asked this person to contact Robby and make sure it was ok) with 2 homemade Rum Cakes, that are a specialty of mine. Well, with John being sick and the guys off the road for a few days, Robby hadnt checked any of his e-mails, so he didnt know I was bringing the cakes. After not hearing anything back from our mutual friend, I decided to take a risk and bake them anyway, hoping like hell that they would accept them, after having remembered me from Morehead. Robby looked surprised that I'd done such a thing, and I told him that I would understand completely if he felt they couldnt accept them, that I'd known I was taking a risk in bringing them. He said no, that it was fine, that it was just great of me to do it for them, and thanked me profusely. He kept saying that he couldnt believe I had taken the time to BAKE something for THEM! He set the cakes down on the sidewalk then gave me a full frontal hug and kissed me on the cheek! :o) Another priceless moment!! Then I had my sister take a picture of me standing between Robby and Nathan (Who had to be got up off the sidewalk, lol! While Robby and I were talking, Nathan had sat down on the sidewalk, leaned up against the building, and was flipping through the book, pointing out "Curious George to my sister!) Robby signed my sister's COA cd liner, and drew her a little GOO :o) Then he noticed the canned food we'd brought, and told us that the fans had donated 50,000 cans to date! He seemed really proud about it. (and should be!) As it was 7pm, everyone had to go!! We had to get inside, and they had to get dressed!! Nathan and Robby thanked me again, Nathan told me once more how much he totally loved the book, then they told us goodbye and that they'd see us in a little while. We started heading for the front gate. We were in a hurry because the gates had been open for over a half hour and we were certain we were too late to ANYWHERE near the front, as this show was Gen. Admn. Before we could make it past the tour buses, the security fellow that had let us remain by the buses came over and started talking to us again because he'd seen our exchange with the guys and just thought it was fabulous. He started telling us about some of the shows he had worked over the years, and I got a sinking feeling because I didnt want to be rude and cut him off, but our chances of getting good spots for the show were gone. It was 15 minutes til show time. At the first opportunity, I told him we were sorry to go but we HAD to get inside. He looked at his watch, and I could tell by his face that he knew he'd been holding us up and that it was LATE. I told him we'd probably screwed up by waiting around so long to see the guys, but it was definately worth it, but now we would NEVER find a good view of the stage on the floor like we wanted. He struggled with himself for a second, came to a mental decision, and told us to follow him! He took us back around to the dressing room doors where we'd met Mike and John earlier, took us in, through that room, down a hallway passing us right by a whole crew of security, telling them it was ok, that we were with him! I couldnt believe it when we found ourselves entering the arena from behind the security barriers! He introduced us to his son, who also worked there, told him to take care of our extra stuff (gift bags, canned food, etc) and to show us where we could pick them up after the show. He then walked us out to the front barrier, opened a gate, and let us out right in front of the stage! We thanked him, and then I remembered our tickets in my pocket. I handed them to him and asked him if he would take them out front and give them to someone outside that didnt have tickets. I mean, I'd already paid for them, so SOMEBODY should get to use them! lol He grinned and said he would, told us to have a blast and enjoy ourselves. A really really cool guy!! The next thing we did was go around to the other side of the stage, on John's side, because we just couldnt see anything on our side (Robby's) but huge speakers on the stage. We were too far out on the edge of the crowd. My aunt and cousin were to meet us at the show, (yes, I'm determined to convert EVERYONE to Goo, lol!) and we got lucky enough to find them on our way around. They joined us, and we managed to work our way to just left of John's mic stand, and were in the second and third rows, so we could see. I didnt care for Frog Pond, the opening band (which John later told us was "An ass whuppin that you deserved for acting so wild" hehe). Fastball was pretty good, they were fun. I knew we were in trouble as soon as the opening bands started playing, because during the short time they were on, already about 15 people were crowd surfing. I'd never been in a mosh pit before and it got really really ugly! (My aunt almost got into a fist fight! ugh!) By the time the guys came on, it was terrible! My poor sister got a whole glass of Pepsi dumped on her head, in her face as soon as Dizzy opened! My cousin Ashley had to leave to go sit in the stands because she was getting too hot and light headed, so my aunt left with her. My sister and I remained, and she was almost crying from the Pepsi in her eyes. She took it pretty well, other than her eyes burning for a long time, but I was scared to death she'd hate me for bringing her!! (she'd never been to a concert before) I wont go into anymore detail about how bad it got, but I will say that John stopped the music dead right in the middle of Naked and told everybody to calm down. He also offered some guy his money back. Apparently the guy was fighting (I couldnt see) and John was pissed about it. He sang incredibly well, much better than I was expecting when I had talked to him earlier. He worked the crowd alot (and was still wearing that silly hat, btw!), but didnt carry on his verbal nonsense like he did at Morehead. He did tell everyone that the doctors had said he'd "F*cked up" his throat, but then laughed and said they'd told him he was ugly too! He was in a playful mood, and made a few short jokes, but all in all, you could tell he wasnt cutting loose like normal. Singing wise, he was as fabulous as ever, though. I did notice on Iris that on the chorus he took a different approach, bringing it down a bit, but it worked out great, and no one seemed to notice or mind. He did wonderful! I noticed him slipping off between songs to sip from a coffee mug sitting on one of the speakers. He had a water bottle as well (which he later tossed out to a girl standing directly in front of me) but he only drank from it once. So I assume whatever was in that coffee cup was medicinal for his throat. Robby was his usual bubbly, energetic self, playing with the crowd, working his own brand of magic. He played fabulously, and I noticed that he kept an eye on John, during almost every song, especially the vocally demanding choruses, Robby would get close to John and give him a look, kind of asking him silently with his eyes if he was ok. John would nod, Robby would grin, and they'd just rock together! They have great chemistry and the crowd eats it up! At the end of the show, John brought out this white guitar, and tried to smash it. It must have been one well made guitar, because he threw it 4 times across the stage (I dont know why he didnt just beat it on the floor) and it still didnt break apart. He finally shrugged and gave up. The whole show went well, and if I hadnt been stuck in the middle of a bunch of rude, shoving, pushing, pulling people, I would have enjoyed it. It was definately NOT an equal to Morehead! After the show, the guitar tech that remembered me from Morehead, the one who we had talked to earlier by the dressing room doors, he saw me, grinned, came over to the edge of the stage, and tried to toss me a guitar pick. One went over my head and someone else got it, and 2 landed on the floor in front of me, behind the barrier, and the security guard picked them up and gave one to someone else and stuck the other in his own pocket, although the tech was trying to tell him that they'd been intended for me. I gave up, told him thanks for trying, then went off to find my stuff backstage. We still had to put our canned goods in the box out front, so we came back through the arena, and I saw the guitar tech again on the stage. I went over to tell him goodbye, and thanked him for telling the guys I was outside earlier. I started for the door and got half way across the floor before he yelled for me. I turned and he motioned for me to come back. I did, and he dug into his pocket and pulled out 2 brand new picks, and handed one to me and one to my sister. :o) We were surprised and thanked him a bunch! I have just a few pics that we took with the guys before the show (my sister didnt snap away like my hubby did at Morehead, unfortunately) and then I have 3 rolls that I took inside during the show. I hope they'll all turn out well, I'll let you know. I guess my reason for not wanting this review posted to the site is because it just seems too personal, you know? All my meetings with the guys directly related back to our meeting them at Morehead and their meeting with Jared. I dont know. I feel weird about it. Something about John's fierceness over that little beat up car, Nathan's utter delight with that children's book.....it's just too emotionally personal, something I dont want to sully by having all those little 12 year old girls on the GGDs and TTB lists that read it on your site e-mailing me and telling me how "awesome" or "waaaay cool" they think it is. It surpassed those terms. I truly think the guys were all touched by their gifts, and I was touched by their reactions. Somehow, to exploit that by allowing a thousand people to read it, it would be like sneaking a video camera into their homes during Christmas with their families, catching those special moments and emotions on video, and then selling copies of it out on the street corner. It would just cheapen it somehow. Does that sound crazy? There is also the food issue. I dont want 10,000 people suddenly trying to give them homemade food, which is potentially dangerous, and I dont think they'd go for that. For them to accept what I gave them was an exception, I'd say, and was only allowed because they'd met me before, and had had a memorable experience with my son. Well, Fay, you were the one person that I DID want to share this with. You've been very sweet to me in the past, giving me parenting advice and such, and I know you'll get what I'm saying. It was a very special, very precious, very priceless time for me, and for the guys as well, I think. (I hope!) Sorry it's sooooo long again, but I'm a writer in my spare time, so it comes easy to me, hehe I hope you'll enjoy it and savor it too. :o) Let me know what you think Ever Your Friend, Lisa Miller Agoostic#3 (Lisa) *Everybody stop yelling!.....You all see that little fellow right there?

The one where Jared had just asked if he could play on stage with him at Morehead and then proceeded to tell John that he wanted to "Rock with the Goos!" I told him I thought it might make a nice keepsake for him, and John smiled, held it up to get a better look, and just grinned. Then I gave him a bottle of UK blue nail polish (I never thought I'd EVER give nail polish to a man! hehe) and he thought that was pretty cool. I told him I didnt get him alot this time because I'd gotten him the double cd set at Morehead, and I asked him how he liked it. He said it was great, that he'd listened to it alot :o) Then I gave him the card that Jared made for him when he found out John was sick. (Get out the hankie, this will almost make you cry!) I told John that Jared had made the card himself, and bless his little heart, he's just learning to write his letters, but he wrote on it: "To John" then a little heart in the middle (for Love) then, "Jared" at the bottom. On the inside he'd written: "I love you" and "Get Well" at the bottom. All this was done squiggly wiggly in crayon, yet you could read it. Jared had also pulled his favorite stickers off one of his Tonka trucks and stuck them on it, and then just basically doodled and stamped all over it, hehe. It was a true labor of love, I'd say, and John said that it was a great thing for him to do, and seemed to really and truly like it. The tear jerking part comes next, though. I handed John a gift from Jared. Something that Jared had brought to me right before I left for the show and told me to give to John. I was surprised at what it was, and almost didnt agree to take it for fear that Jared would regret it later, but he insisted. I handed John a little, beat up, nicked up, black GTO HotWheel car that has been Jared's very favorite forever. He'd gotten it for his first birthday, and has often carried it in his pants pockets and slept with it. It must have cost him a great deal to part with it, because he looked kind of solemn when he told me to give it to John, but he insisted that I should, because he was certain that it would make John feel better. When I handed it to John and explained all that to him, this look passed over his face that was indescribable. He looked up at me and I could tell he was touched. Then he smiled this quiet little half smile, rolled the little car back and forth on his hand for a second, then turned it over and looked at it from all sides, commented that it was a GTO, and grinned. That's all he said, though, which puzzled me, then I thought that maybe I'd been wrong, that maybe he wasn't touched after all, that he was just amused at getting a little junky toy from a little 4 year old kid. He thanked me for the nail polish and photograph, and I told him that it was just my way of saying thanks for him being so good to my son. I told him everybody in our whole town knows how nice they are! And he laughed After that, I put my arm around him (his hands were full) and my sister took a picture of us, then I got one of her with him too. (When the pics were developed, John isnt looking at the camera for that one, he's still looking at the little Hot Wheel and Jared's homemade card in his hand) He talked to us for a moment longer, still making no mention whatsoever about the little car, even though he'd thanked me for everything else. But when he left us to go inside, he suddenly stopped and turned to me in the doorway. Held that little car up in his fist, in a grip so tight his knuckles were white, and said in a voice surprisingly fierce, "You tell him (meaning Jared) that I said thank you VERY much for this, and that I will hang on to it and NEVER let ANYTHING happen to it" I told him I would, watched as he slipped it into his pants pocket, then disappeared inside. Oh, I could have just bawled like a baby! And something made me feel (even my sister commented on it) that John had felt like doing the same. It was a priceless moment, one I'll never forget. While I was trying to decide if I was going to cry or not, Mike came back out with some envelopes in his hand. He grinned at us and asked if we knew where he could find a mail box. I reminded him that we werent from Louisville, so we wouldnt know, but surely there would be one on almost every corner since we were right downtown. He told us to wish him luck, that if he didnt show up for the show to tell everyone he was lost on the streets of downtown Louisville, lol, then he headed off down the alley :o) Well, shortly after that, one of the security guys that had been so nice to us, came out said his supervisor had just came in and had asked what we were doing there in the alley. He said it would probably be best if we went ahead and left. So, we headed to where the tour buses were parked, and waited right next to them for Nathan and Robby. While we were waiting, this older fellow, who was security, came over and asked us what we were doing, and I told him that we were waiting to catch the guys, and that we'd already seen Mike and John. He smiled and said he'd been with them all day and that they seemed like really nice boys. I agreed wholeheartedly and told him about our experience at Morehead. He thought it was really cool, and after I told him that I was there on a "Thank You Mission", he said he understood and said he'd let us wait by the buses as long as we needed to. He was really nice! A few minutes later, around the corner came Nathan :o) After he'd signed Jared's guitar at Morehead, and was so nice to us, telling us about his little girl and stuff, I felt really guilty for not bringing him anything. So, this time, I'd gotten him a gift. An unusual one. As he got closer, I called to him and he came over. He didnt recognize me 'til I told him I was Jared's mom, and then a big grin broke out on his face. I told him that I'd felt really bad about not getting him anything at Morehead, so I'd brought him something this time. His face lit up. Until I told him that what I'd brought was not exactly for HIM. He looked a little confused, but curious. As I placed a book in his hands, a book called '20th Century Treasury of Children's Stories', I explained to him that I remembered him telling us that he had a 2 year old little girl, and that I'd gotten him the book in hopes that he would take the time to sit with her and read to her as I've always done with Jared. He LOVED it!!!! As soon as I laid it in his hands, the man went crazy! He was oooohing and aaaaahing and flipping pages and pointing at the artwork. He was ecstatic! More excited than I ever dreamed he'd be. As it was a compilation book, with everything from Curious George to Madeline to The Star Bellied Sneeches; over 30 books with the original artwork, Nathan was absolutely tickled! I've NEVER seen anyone get so excited about a book before! He was pointing out all this stuff, commenting that this one or that one was a favorite author/artist, he was truly happy. :o) Which made ME happy, because I'd sort of had my doubts about giving the book to him in the first place, but now I KNOW I made the right choice!! As I was watching Nathan and getting a kick out of him with his book, he suddenly held it up and yelled down the street! "Hey! Look what I just got!" And here came John and Mr. Dirty Toes himself! (pardon the expression, but Jared kindly pointed that fact out to Robby when we met them at Morehead, hehe) Robby had a smile on his face. (and shock of all shocks...SHOES on his feet!) John had his things that we'd given him in his hands, grinned, waved, and headed on into the bus. He really looked sick and very tired :o( Nathan pulled Robby over to look at the book before I could even say anything! hehe Robby checked it out for a moment, then looked up at me and I told him who I was, gave him my usual identity- "I'm Jared's mom" He said "Cool! Good to see you again!" and grinned huge! I asked him what he thought about Jared's video, and he just started saying how cool he thought it was, how they were forever confused by how I got them AND Jared into the same video (I shot Jared playing beside a large mirror that reflected the guys playing the HRL show on the big screen tv on the opposite side of the room, fyi) He said they were all tripping because the video showed them playing left handed, and they are all righties, hehehe Really screwed them up! They finally figured out how it was done, and thought it was cool. I told Robby that I'd gotten him a gift, something guaranteed that he would like and use! He looked like a little kid, got that excited expression that a child does when they know they are going to get a surprise. He's so darned cute! I got him a mousepad for his computer that you can put your own picture inside of. I showed him that I'd already put a picture of him and Jared together in it, but got it mainly because I thought he might like to put in a picture of his family. I thought it might help him when he gets to missing them while he's on the road. He loved it! I also presented him (because he and I have a mutual friend that has him on e-mail, and I had asked this person to contact Robby and make sure it was ok) with 2 homemade Rum Cakes, that are a specialty of mine. Well, with John being sick and the guys off the road for a few days, Robby hadnt checked any of his e-mails, so he didnt know I was bringing the cakes. After not hearing anything back from our mutual friend, I decided to take a risk and bake them anyway, hoping like hell that they would accept them, after having remembered me from Morehead. Robby looked surprised that I'd done such a thing, and I told him that I would understand completely if he felt they couldnt accept them, that I'd known I was taking a risk in bringing them. He said no, that it was fine, that it was just great of me to do it for them, and thanked me profusely. He kept saying that he couldnt believe I had taken the time to BAKE something for THEM! He set the cakes down on the sidewalk then gave me a full frontal hug and kissed me on the cheek! :o) Another priceless moment!! Then I had my sister take a picture of me standing between Robby and Nathan (Who had to be got up off the sidewalk, lol! While Robby and I were talking, Nathan had sat down on the sidewalk, leaned up against the building, and was flipping through the book, pointing out "Curious George to my sister!) Robby signed my sister's COA cd liner, and drew her a little GOO :o) Then he noticed the canned food we'd brought, and told us that the fans had donated 50,000 cans to date! He seemed really proud about it. (and should be!) As it was 7pm, everyone had to go!! We had to get inside, and they had to get dressed!! Nathan and Robby thanked me again, Nathan told me once more how much he totally loved the book, then they told us goodbye and that they'd see us in a little while. We started heading for the front gate. We were in a hurry because the gates had been open for over a half hour and we were certain we were too late to ANYWHERE near the front, as this show was Gen. Admn. Before we could make it past the tour buses, the security fellow that had let us remain by the buses came over and started talking to us again because he'd seen our exchange with the guys and just thought it was fabulous. He started telling us about some of the shows he had worked over the years, and I got a sinking feeling because I didnt want to be rude and cut him off, but our chances of getting good spots for the show were gone. It was 15 minutes til show time. At the first opportunity, I told him we were sorry to go but we HAD to get inside. He looked at his watch, and I could tell by his face that he knew he'd been holding us up and that it was LATE. I told him we'd probably screwed up by waiting around so long to see the guys, but it was definately worth it, but now we would NEVER find a good view of the stage on the floor like we wanted. He struggled with himself for a second, came to a mental decision, and told us to follow him! He took us back around to the dressing room doors where we'd met Mike and John earlier, took us in, through that room, down a hallway passing us right by a whole crew of security, telling them it was ok, that we were with him! I couldnt believe it when we found ourselves entering the arena from behind the security barriers! He introduced us to his son, who also worked there, told him to take care of our extra stuff (gift bags, canned food, etc) and to show us where we could pick them up after the show. He then walked us out to the front barrier, opened a gate, and let us out right in front of the stage! We thanked him, and then I remembered our tickets in my pocket. I handed them to him and asked him if he would take them out front and give them to someone outside that didnt have tickets. I mean, I'd already paid for them, so SOMEBODY should get to use them! lol He grinned and said he would, told us to have a blast and enjoy ourselves. A really really cool guy!! The next thing we did was go around to the other side of the stage, on John's side, because we just couldnt see anything on our side (Robby's) but huge speakers on the stage. We were too far out on the edge of the crowd. My aunt and cousin were to meet us at the show, (yes, I'm determined to convert EVERYONE to Goo, lol!) and we got lucky enough to find them on our way around. They joined us, and we managed to work our way to just left of John's mic stand, and were in the second and third rows, so we could see. I didnt care for Frog Pond, the opening band (which John later told us was "An ass whuppin that you deserved for acting so wild" hehe). Fastball was pretty good, they were fun. I knew we were in trouble as soon as the opening bands started playing, because during the short time they were on, already about 15 people were crowd surfing. I'd never been in a mosh pit before and it got really really ugly! (My aunt almost got into a fist fight! ugh!) By the time the guys came on, it was terrible! My poor sister got a whole glass of Pepsi dumped on her head, in her face as soon as Dizzy opened! My cousin Ashley had to leave to go sit in the stands because she was getting too hot and light headed, so my aunt left with her. My sister and I remained, and she was almost crying from the Pepsi in her eyes. She took it pretty well, other than her eyes burning for a long time, but I was scared to death she'd hate me for bringing her!! (she'd never been to a concert before) I wont go into anymore detail about how bad it got, but I will say that John stopped the music dead right in the middle of Naked and told everybody to calm down. He also offered some guy his money back. Apparently the guy was fighting (I couldnt see) and John was pissed about it. He sang incredibly well, much better than I was expecting when I had talked to him earlier. He worked the crowd alot (and was still wearing that silly hat, btw!), but didnt carry on his verbal nonsense like he did at Morehead. He did tell everyone that the doctors had said he'd "F*cked up" his throat, but then laughed and said they'd told him he was ugly too! He was in a playful mood, and made a few short jokes, but all in all, you could tell he wasnt cutting loose like normal. Singing wise, he was as fabulous as ever, though. I did notice on Iris that on the chorus he took a different approach, bringing it down a bit, but it worked out great, and no one seemed to notice or mind. He did wonderful! I noticed him slipping off between songs to sip from a coffee mug sitting on one of the speakers. He had a water bottle as well (which he later tossed out to a girl standing directly in front of me) but he only drank from it once. So I assume whatever was in that coffee cup was medicinal for his throat. Robby was his usual bubbly, energetic self, playing with the crowd, working his own brand of magic. He played fabulously, and I noticed that he kept an eye on John, during almost every song, especially the vocally demanding choruses, Robby would get close to John and give him a look, kind of asking him silently with his eyes if he was ok. John would nod, Robby would grin, and they'd just rock together! They have great chemistry and the crowd eats it up! At the end of the show, John brought out this white guitar, and tried to smash it. It must have been one well made guitar, because he threw it 4 times across the stage (I dont know why he didnt just beat it on the floor) and it still didnt break apart. He finally shrugged and gave up. The whole show went well, and if I hadnt been stuck in the middle of a bunch of rude, shoving, pushing, pulling people, I would have enjoyed it. It was definately NOT an equal to Morehead! After the show, the guitar tech that remembered me from Morehead, the one who we had talked to earlier by the dressing room doors, he saw me, grinned, came over to the edge of the stage, and tried to toss me a guitar pick. One went over my head and someone else got it, and 2 landed on the floor in front of me, behind the barrier, and the security guard picked them up and gave one to someone else and stuck the other in his own pocket, although the tech was trying to tell him that they'd been intended for me. I gave up, told him thanks for trying, then went off to find my stuff backstage. We still had to put our canned goods in the box out front, so we came back through the arena, and I saw the guitar tech again on the stage. I went over to tell him goodbye, and thanked him for telling the guys I was outside earlier. I started for the door and got half way across the floor before he yelled for me. I turned and he motioned for me to come back. I did, and he dug into his pocket and pulled out 2 brand new picks, and handed one to me and one to my sister. :o) We were surprised and thanked him a bunch! I have just a few pics that we took with the guys before the show (my sister didnt snap away like my hubby did at Morehead, unfortunately) and then I have 3 rolls that I took inside during the show. I hope they'll all turn out well, I'll let you know. I guess my reason for not wanting this review posted to the site is because it just seems too personal, you know? All my meetings with the guys directly related back to our meeting them at Morehead and their meeting with Jared. I dont know. I feel weird about it. Something about John's fierceness over that little beat up car, Nathan's utter delight with that children's book.....it's just too emotionally personal, something I dont want to sully by having all those little 12 year old girls on the GGDs and TTB lists that read it on your site e-mailing me and telling me how "awesome" or "waaaay cool" they think it is. It surpassed those terms. I truly think the guys were all touched by their gifts, and I was touched by their reactions. Somehow, to exploit that by allowing a thousand people to read it, it would be like sneaking a video camera into their homes during Christmas with their families, catching those special moments and emotions on video, and then selling copies of it out on the street corner. It would just cheapen it somehow. Does that sound crazy? There is also the food issue. I dont want 10,000 people suddenly trying to give them homemade food, which is potentially dangerous, and I dont think they'd go for that. For them to accept what I gave them was an exception, I'd say, and was only allowed because they'd met me before, and had had a memorable experience with my son. Well, Fay, you were the one person that I DID want to share this with. You've been very sweet to me in the past, giving me parenting advice and such, and I know you'll get what I'm saying. It was a very special, very precious, very priceless time for me, and for the guys as well, I think. (I hope!) Sorry it's sooooo long again, but I'm a writer in my spare time, so it comes easy to me, hehe I hope you'll enjoy it and savor it too. :o) Let me know what you think Ever Your Friend, Lisa Miller Agoostic#3 (Lisa) *Everybody stop yelling!.....You all see that little fellow right there? In the middle of the crowd? With his guitar in the air?.....That little guy is trying to take my job!!!* ~John Rzeznik, referring to my son, Jared, at Morehead, Ky. *Yeah! Absolutely.

No offense, but I think you'll understand after you read it. Here goes.... :o) My sister and I arrived at Louisville Gardens at almost 6pm. As we'd driven 50 miles to get there, and had had a late start getting on the road, I was afraid that we'd blown our chance to catch the guys, as the main gate would open at 6:30 and the show start at 7:30. We immediately headed for the back of the building, in hopes of finding the tour buses parked there. No buses in sight! So, we started walking down the alley that runs behind the building, and find there's a wine colored van blocking our path. I realized then that the van was pulled up to the back doors of the building, and there's a sign taped on one of the open doors that says "Goo Goo Doll Dressing Rooms" I knew we'd come to the right place! So, we sat down, smiled at the handful of people that were milling about, in and out of those doors. A few minutes later, a guy that I recognized from the Morehead show, one of the Goo guitar techs, came outside. I told him who I was, and that I'd met the guys at Morehead, and mentioned Jared. As soon as I said something about Jared, his face lit up and he remembered exactly who I was. He grinned and said he'd go and get one of the guys to come out. :o) A second later, Mike strolled out the door, saw us and came over. I told him that I had another gift for him, one that I had originally planned to get him, but couldnt find, so instead had gotten him the Wildcat T-shirt that I ended up giving him at Morehead. (I'd mentioned to him at Morehead that I'd been trying to find him a Wildcat golf club head cover, but hadnt had any luck, hence the T-shirt) So I pulled out a whole set of Wildcat blue and white golf club head covers, and he grinned really big. He thanked me and said that he wore the T-shirt I'd given him at Morehead all the time. :o) Then he said that he does enjoy a good game of golf when he's not on the road, and that now he could wear his UK t-shirt to the golf course and he'd match his golf gear, hehehe I asked him what he thought about Jared's video tape that we'd given them at Morehead, and he grinned really big and said he thought it was just great and that they watch it almost every night! That just made me sooooo happy and proud! I could hardly believe it! :o) I took a picture of him with my sister, and he talked to us for a few minutes longer about where we live, Louisville itself, and then he thanked me for the golf club head covers. I told him NO, the golf club covers had been my way of thanking HIM for being so good to my son in Morehead. He grinned again, thanked me anyway, then said he hated to go but he had to get some things done before show time. He didnt seem nearly so shy this time, and my sister commented on how sweet he is. I told her to be prepared, cause every single one of them are just as sweet!! :o) While we'd been talking to Mike, John had slipped by us. I saw him as he was walking away from us, down the alley, towards where the buses were parked on the opposite side of the building from where I had parked. All I saw was a pair of baggy olive green cargo pants, and some strange thing on his head that looked like a floppy, tan colored cowboy hat that had seen better days, hehehe I knew he'd have to come back into the building, so we didnt follow him (I think it's bad form to follow someone around) So, we sat there and waited, hoping perhaps Nathan or Robby would come out in the meantime. Well, it wasnt long before John came back up the alley, and when he saw us, I stood and told him he was just the man I wanted to see. He smiled and I could tell he knew he'd seen me before but couldnt place me. So instead of introducing myself, I asked him to tell me what he thought of my "little Goo head"s video tape, and then it clicked with him. He smiled really big and said he thought it was just great! Unfortunately, I didnt give him time to elaborate, not once I heard him speak. His voice was very quiet, just above a whisper, not at all like he carried on at Morehead. I looked at him seriously and told him that he didnt sound too good. He rolled his eyes a bit, then he grinned and said that he'd be alright, that the doctors had just told him to take it easy. I told him that I really wished he'd just go home and get well. He looked surprised that I would say that, then he looked a little sad and said that he couldn't go home, that they'd already cancelled some shows, and that he just couldnt. I felt really bad for him. To keep things light, and to prevent myself from doing my usual mothering and pecking at him any further, I told him I'd brought him a few things and he smiled. I gave him an 8x10 enlargement of a picture of him and Jared together. The one where they are sharing a laugh and have the eye contact thing going on. The one where Jared had just asked if he could play on stage with him at Morehead and then proceeded to tell John that he wanted to "Rock with the Goos!" I told him I thought it might make a nice keepsake for him, and John smiled, held it up to get a better look, and just grinned. Then I gave him a bottle of UK blue nail polish (I never thought I'd EVER give nail polish to a man! hehe) and he thought that was pretty cool. I told him I didnt get him alot this time because I'd gotten him the double cd set at Morehead, and I asked him how he liked it. He said it was great, that he'd listened to it alot :o) Then I gave him the card that Jared made for him when he found out John was sick. (Get out the hankie, this will almost make you cry!) I told John that Jared had made the card himself, and bless his little heart, he's just learning to write his letters, but he wrote on it: "To John" then a little heart in the middle (for Love) then, "Jared" at the bottom. On the inside he'd written: "I love you" and "Get Well" at the bottom. All this was done squiggly wiggly in crayon, yet you could read it. Jared had also pulled his favorite stickers off one of his Tonka trucks and stuck them on it, and then just basically doodled and stamped all over it, hehe. It was a true labor of love, I'd say, and John said that it was a great thing for him to do, and seemed to really and truly like it. The tear jerking part comes next, though. I handed John a gift from Jared. Something that Jared had brought to me right before I left for the show and told me to give to John. I was surprised at what it was, and almost didnt agree to take it for fear that Jared would regret it later, but he insisted. I handed John a little, beat up, nicked up, black GTO HotWheel car that has been Jared's very favorite forever. He'd gotten it for his first birthday, and has often carried it in his pants pockets and slept with it. It must have cost him a great deal to part with it, because he looked kind of solemn when he told me to give it to John, but he insisted that I should, because he was certain that it would make John feel better. When I handed it to John and explained all that to him, this look passed over his face that was indescribable. He looked up at me and I could tell he was touched. Then he smiled this quiet little half smile, rolled the little car back and forth on his hand for a second, then turned it over and looked at it from all sides, commented that it was a GTO, and grinned. That's all he said, though, which puzzled me, then I thought that maybe I'd been wrong, that maybe he wasn't touched after all, that he was just amused at getting a little junky toy from a little 4 year old kid. He thanked me for the nail polish and photograph, and I told him that it was just my way of saying thanks for him being so good to my son. I told him everybody in our whole town knows how nice they are! And he laughed After that, I put my arm around him (his hands were full) and my sister took a picture of us, then I got one of her with him too. (When the pics were developed, John isnt looking at the camera for that one, he's still looking at the little Hot Wheel and Jared's homemade card in his hand) He talked to us for a moment longer, still making no mention whatsoever about the little car, even though he'd thanked me for everything else. But when he left us to go inside, he suddenly stopped and turned to me in the doorway. Held that little car up in his fist, in a grip so tight his knuckles were white, and said in a voice surprisingly fierce, "You tell him (meaning Jared) that I said thank you VERY much for this, and that I will hang on to it and NEVER let ANYTHING happen to it" I told him I would, watched as he slipped it into his pants pocket, then disappeared inside. Oh, I could have just bawled like a baby! And something made me feel (even my sister commented on it) that John had felt like doing the same. It was a priceless moment, one I'll never forget. While I was trying to decide if I was going to cry or not, Mike came back out with some envelopes in his hand. He grinned at us and asked if we knew where he could find a mail box.

As I placed a book in his hands, a book called '20th Century Treasury of Children's Stories', I explained to him that I remembered him telling us that he had a 2 year old little girl, and that I'd gotten him the book in hopes that he would take the time to sit with her and read to her as I've always done with Jared. He LOVED it!!!! As soon as I laid it in his hands, the man went crazy! He was oooohing and aaaaahing and flipping pages and pointing at the artwork. He was ecstatic! More excited than I ever dreamed he'd be. As it was a compilation book, with everything from Curious George to Madeline to The Star Bellied Sneeches; over 30 books with the original artwork, Nathan was absolutely tickled! I've NEVER seen anyone get so excited about a book before! He was pointing out all this stuff, commenting that this one or that one was a favorite author/artist, he was truly happy. :o) Which made ME happy, because I'd sort of had my doubts about giving the book to him in the first place, but now I KNOW I made the right choice!! As I was watching Nathan and getting a kick out of him with his book, he suddenly held it up and yelled down the street! "Hey! Look what I just got!" And here came John and Mr. Dirty Toes himself! (pardon the expression, but Jared kindly pointed that fact out to Robby when we met them at Morehead, hehe) Robby had a smile on his face. (and shock of all shocks...SHOES on his feet!) John had his things that we'd given him in his hands, grinned, waved, and headed on into the bus. He really looked sick and very tired :o( Nathan pulled Robby over to look at the book before I could even say anything! hehe Robby checked it out for a moment, then looked up at me and I told him who I was, gave him my usual identity- "I'm Jared's mom" He said "Cool! Good to see you again!" and grinned huge! I asked him what he thought about Jared's video, and he just started saying how cool he thought it was, how they were forever confused by how I got them AND Jared into the same video (I shot Jared playing beside a large mirror that reflected the guys playing the HRL show on the big screen tv on the opposite side of the room, fyi) He said they were all tripping because the video showed them playing left handed, and they are all righties, hehehe Really screwed them up! They finally figured out how it was done, and thought it was cool. I told Robby that I'd gotten him a gift, something guaranteed that he would like and use! He looked like a little kid, got that excited expression that a child does when they know they are going to get a surprise. He's so darned cute! I got him a mousepad for his computer that you can put your own picture inside of. I showed him that I'd already put a picture of him and Jared together in it, but got it mainly because I thought he might like to put in a picture of his family. I thought it might help him when he gets to missing them while he's on the road. He loved it! I also presented him (because he and I have a mutual friend that has him on e-mail, and I had asked this person to contact Robby and make sure it was ok) with 2 homemade Rum Cakes, that are a specialty of mine. Well, with John being sick and the guys off the road for a few days, Robby hadnt checked any of his e-mails, so he didnt know I was bringing the cakes. After not hearing anything back from our mutual friend, I decided to take a risk and bake them anyway, hoping like hell that they would accept them, after having remembered me from Morehead. Robby looked surprised that I'd done such a thing, and I told him that I would understand completely if he felt they couldnt accept them, that I'd known I was taking a risk in bringing them. He said no, that it was fine, that it was just great of me to do it for them, and thanked me profusely. He kept saying that he couldnt believe I had taken the time to BAKE something for THEM! He set the cakes down on the sidewalk then gave me a full frontal hug and kissed me on the cheek! :o) Another priceless moment!! Then I had my sister take a picture of me standing between Robby and Nathan (Who had to be got up off the sidewalk, lol! While Robby and I were talking, Nathan had sat down on the sidewalk, leaned up against the building, and was flipping through the book, pointing out "Curious George to my sister!) Robby signed my sister's COA cd liner, and drew her a little GOO :o) Then he noticed the canned food we'd brought, and told us that the fans had donated 50,000 cans to date! He seemed really proud about it. (and should be!) As it was 7pm, everyone had to go!! We had to get inside, and they had to get dressed!! Nathan and Robby thanked me again, Nathan told me once more how much he totally loved the book, then they told us goodbye and that they'd see us in a little while. We started heading for the front gate. We were in a hurry because the gates had been open for over a half hour and we were certain we were too late to ANYWHERE near the front, as this show was Gen. Admn. Before we could make it past the tour buses, the security fellow that had let us remain by the buses came over and started talking to us again because he'd seen our exchange with the guys and just thought it was fabulous. He started telling us about some of the shows he had worked over the years, and I got a sinking feeling because I didnt want to be rude and cut him off, but our chances of getting good spots for the show were gone. It was 15 minutes til show time. At the first opportunity, I told him we were sorry to go but we HAD to get inside. He looked at his watch, and I could tell by his face that he knew he'd been holding us up and that it was LATE. I told him we'd probably screwed up by waiting around so long to see the guys, but it was definately worth it, but now we would NEVER find a good view of the stage on the floor like we wanted. He struggled with himself for a second, came to a mental decision, and told us to follow him! He took us back around to the dressing room doors where we'd met Mike and John earlier, took us in, through that room, down a hallway passing us right by a whole crew of security, telling them it was ok, that we were with him! I couldnt believe it when we found ourselves entering the arena from behind the security barriers! He introduced us to his son, who also worked there, told him to take care of our extra stuff (gift bags, canned food, etc) and to show us where we could pick them up after the show. He then walked us out to the front barrier, opened a gate, and let us out right in front of the stage! We thanked him, and then I remembered our tickets in my pocket. I handed them to him and asked him if he would take them out front and give them to someone outside that didnt have tickets. I mean, I'd already paid for them, so SOMEBODY should get to use them! lol He grinned and said he would, told us to have a blast and enjoy ourselves. A really really cool guy!! The next thing we did was go around to the other side of the stage, on John's side, because we just couldnt see anything on our side (Robby's) but huge speakers on the stage. We were too far out on the edge of the crowd. My aunt and cousin were to meet us at the show, (yes, I'm determined to convert EVERYONE to Goo, lol!) and we got lucky enough to find them on our way around. They joined us, and we managed to work our way to just left of John's mic stand, and were in the second and third rows, so we could see. I didnt care for Frog Pond, the opening band (which John later told us was "An ass whuppin that you deserved for acting so wild" hehe). Fastball was pretty good, they were fun. I knew we were in trouble as soon as the opening bands started playing, because during the short time they were on, already about 15 people were crowd surfing. I'd never been in a mosh pit before and it got really really ugly! (My aunt almost got into a fist fight! ugh!) By the time the guys came on, it was terrible! My poor sister got a whole glass of Pepsi dumped on her head, in her face as soon as Dizzy opened! My cousin Ashley had to leave to go sit in the stands because she was getting too hot and light headed, so my aunt left with her. My sister and I remained, and she was almost crying from the Pepsi in her eyes. She took it pretty well, other than her eyes burning for a long time, but I was scared to death she'd hate me for bringing her!! (she'd never been to a concert before) I wont go into anymore detail about how bad it got, but I will say that John stopped the music dead right in the middle of Naked and told everybody to calm down. He also offered some guy his money back. Apparently the guy was fighting (I couldnt see) and John was pissed about it. He sang incredibly well, much better than I was expecting when I had talked to him earlier. He worked the crowd alot (and was still wearing that silly hat, btw!), but didnt carry on his verbal nonsense like he did at Morehead. He did tell everyone that the doctors had said he'd "F*cked up" his throat, but then laughed and said they'd told him he was ugly too! He was in a playful mood, and made a few short jokes, but all in all, you could tell he wasnt cutting loose like normal. Singing wise, he was as fabulous as ever, though. I did notice on Iris that on the chorus he took a different approach, bringing it down a bit, but it worked out great, and no one seemed to notice or mind. He did wonderful! I noticed him slipping off between songs to sip from a coffee mug sitting on one of the speakers. He had a water bottle as well (which he later tossed out to a girl standing directly in front of me) but he only drank from it once. So I assume whatever was in that coffee cup was medicinal for his throat. Robby was his usual bubbly, energetic self, playing with the crowd, working his own brand of magic. He played fabulously, and I noticed that he kept an eye on John, during almost every song, especially the vocally demanding choruses, Robby would get close to John and give him a look, kind of asking him silently with his eyes if he was ok. John would nod, Robby would grin, and they'd just rock together! They have great chemistry and the crowd eats it up! At the end of the show, John brought out this white guitar, and tried to smash it. It must have been one well made guitar, because he threw it 4 times across the stage (I dont know why he didnt just beat it on the floor) and it still didnt break apart. He finally shrugged and gave up. The whole show went well, and if I hadnt been stuck in the middle of a bunch of rude, shoving, pushing, pulling people, I would have enjoyed it. It was definately NOT an equal to Morehead! After the show, the guitar tech that remembered me from Morehead, the one who we had talked to earlier by the dressing room doors, he saw me, grinned, came over to the edge of the stage, and tried to toss me a guitar pick. One went over my head and someone else got it, and 2 landed on the floor in front of me, behind the barrier, and the security guard picked them up and gave one to someone else and stuck the other in his own pocket, although the tech was trying to tell him that they'd been intended for me. I gave up, told him thanks for trying, then went off to find my stuff backstage. We still had to put our canned goods in the box out front, so we came back through the arena, and I saw the guitar tech again on the stage. I went over to tell him goodbye, and thanked him for telling the guys I was outside earlier. I started for the door and got half way across the floor before he yelled for me. I turned and he motioned for me to come back. I did, and he dug into his pocket and pulled out 2 brand new picks, and handed one to me and one to my sister. :o) We were surprised and thanked him a bunch! I have just a few pics that we took with the guys before the show (my sister didnt snap away like my hubby did at Morehead, unfortunately) and then I have 3 rolls that I took inside during the show. I hope they'll all turn out well, I'll let you know. I guess my reason for not wanting this review posted to the site is because it just seems too personal, you know? All my meetings with the guys directly related back to our meeting them at Morehead and their meeting with Jared. I dont know. I feel weird about it. Something about John's fierceness over that little beat up car, Nathan's utter delight with that children's book.....it's just too emotionally personal, something I dont want to sully by having all those little 12 year old girls on the GGDs and TTB lists that read it on your site e-mailing me and telling me how "awesome" or "waaaay cool" they think it is. It surpassed those terms. I truly think the guys were all touched by their gifts, and I was touched by their reactions. Somehow, to exploit that by allowing a thousand people to read it, it would be like sneaking a video camera into their homes during Christmas with their families, catching those special moments and emotions on video, and then selling copies of it out on the street corner. It would just cheapen it somehow. Does that sound crazy? There is also the food issue. I dont want 10,000 people suddenly trying to give them homemade food, which is potentially dangerous, and I dont think they'd go for that. For them to accept what I gave them was an exception, I'd say, and was only allowed because they'd met me before, and had had a memorable experience with my son. Well, Fay, you were the one person that I DID want to share this with. You've been very sweet to me in the past, giving me parenting advice and such, and I know you'll get what I'm saying. It was a very special, very precious, very priceless time for me, and for the guys as well, I think. (I hope!) Sorry it's sooooo long again, but I'm a writer in my spare time, so it comes easy to me, hehe I hope you'll enjoy it and savor it too. :o) Let me know what you think Ever Your Friend, Lisa Miller Agoostic#3 (Lisa) *Everybody stop yelling!.....You all see that little fellow right there?

I made many friends off this list in many different age groups and that happened because I talked to them without thinking about their age. Some people you can talk to and know there age, but some people will absolutely amaze you b/c they can be so young but so experience that they can teach you a thing or two. Physical age doesn't matter, its mental age! If you want to rock at 15, 25, 35 or whatever, just rock on people!
