No one intended on the plane to crash. The situation was taken care of very well considering most people freak out immediately when a situation like this occurs. Minor cuts and bruises are a blessing for our boys and everyone else on that plane... This is a common situation and no one should make a big deal about it thinking someone caused this. Rather than blaming individuals or even an entire country just be glad no one was hurt. We need to realize bad things do happen on their own. I just thought this may help some of you out a bit. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 20 Dec 1999 12:18:31 -0500 To: goo@mailinglists.org From: Sheri.Marcus@jwt.com Subject: mp3s?? - silent night, 1000 words, never take the place of your man Message-ID: <8525684D.005FFA31.00@usam05.na.jwt.com> hi- does anyone have mp3s of the above songs? also, is there a version of "never take the place of your man" where john sings? thanks! sheri ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 20 Dec 1999 09:35:38 -0800 To: Goo Goo Dolls From: Gooey Christmas Subject: Gooey Winner!!!! Message-ID: <385E68E3.C66E0738@Hotmail.com> Hello everyone! Drum roll please. . .is everyone tingling in anticipation? Don't worry, just go to your doctor, they have a cream that will clear that right up! Ok, ok, no more teasing! First thing I did when I woke up this morning (well, second thing) I did was check my email, and, woo hoo! there is a e-mail from our "mystery celebrity judge" (who has asked to remain a mystery), with his/her choice for the winning essay. For the record, I would have chosen the same essay that the judge picked! It is my pleasure to announce, that our very own Erika G. Rzeznik (pseudonym, ya think? LOL) is the Gooey Winner! Erika, with your permission, I will post your winning essay to the list. I am sure many of you are very curious about the correct answers. . .and, since Erika's were so good, I'll just copy exactly what she answered: 1) Before adopting the name The Goo Goo Dolls, what did the band call themselves? the sex maggots 2) What is the significance of "Mama, I'm gonna get me another corn dog"? In "Hammerin Eggs (the metal song)".....that lyric is repeated backwards 3) Who is Armand John Petri? The guy who produced Jed and Hold Me Up. He also did Pre-production and arrangement assitance AND contributed musically on A Boy Named Goo 4) What color vinyl is the "Only One" 7" single pressed on? hot pink 5) What band do you get to see, if you "bring a nickel, tap your feet. . ."? Willie and the Poor Boys 6) Where can you find the studio recorded version of "Don't Change"? The Ace Ventura When Nature Calls Soundtrack 7) What band originally recorded "Don't Change"? INXS 8) What record label originally released the Goo's first album? Celluloid/Mercenary 9) What song does George sing? 22 Seconds 10) Who directed the "Slide" video? Nancy Bardawil 11) What Goo song is on the "No Alternative" compilation? "bitch" with lance diamond 12) In 1997, the Goo's recorded a song for a TV theme show compilation.What song did they record, and, what show is the original from? "I'll be there for you" Friends 13) How did the album Jed get it's name? it was named after the guy who did the cover art and inner sleeve for the album 14) What songs (all from the first release) are on the original 5-track Goo demo tape? Torn Apart, I'm addicted, sunshine of your love, hardsores, slaughterhouse 15) On what street can you find the real SuperStar Car Wash? William St. 16) What is special about November 23rd, in Buffalo, New York? LANCE DIAMOND DAY 17) In what city was the recently released live version of "Black Balloon" recorded in? Seattle 18) What was "Ain't That Unusual" originally called, before it became "Ain't That Unusual"? "someday" 19) The Goos have released two different recordings of "Do You Believe In Him?" the first in 1990, the second in 1997. On what releases can these tracks be found? 1990 For Children of the night, 1997's That Other Christmas CD 20) On A Boy Named Goo, the Goo's covered The Enemies "Disconnected." On what Enemies album can their version of "Disconnected" be found? "Products of the Street." There was some confusion about question #16. On Fay's sight, she posted a news release on Nov 23rd saying that Dizzy Up The Girl had been certified Triple Platinum. Though that was not the actual day of certification (just the day she posted the update to her sight), I did accept that as a correct answer because of potential confusion. As it turns out, Erika had the answer correct anyway, so it really isn't an issue! I want to thank everyone who played, everyone who helped, our mystery judge, and everyone who sent me an email just to thank me for doing this contest! I had a great time doing it, and, will be sure to do something similar if I ever come across any more Gooey stuff! Have a great week everyone, and happy holidaze!

One of my favorite parts was where one of the DJ's and John decided to have a little "contest" lol.. they wanted to see who could cuss eachother out worse in another language. So, grace (the DJ) Cusses john out in spanish and he's like "what the hell.." and so then he cusses her out in Polish and w/o a doubt of course.. John won.. lol.. Well.. here's what i thought was extra funny. Mike (the other DJ) asked him about how they got their name and he told them out of the back of a magazine.. blah blah blah.. u know the whole thing i assume.. anyways.. then the DJ says "and u know what johnny.. i heard you guys had a name before the goo goo dolls.. the sex maggots" and john's totally serious when he says .."no i dont' know how that started that totally untrue" and then the DJ's and John start talking about how they start to LIE about answers to questions just because they're tired of answering them.. how it depends on what mood they're in.. lol.. I really dont' think the DJ's caught on there.. lol Anyways..

They are great pics and they bring back memories for us who been to concert and for those who haven't been to see them in concert, it's a chance to see a glimpse on how it is like. The reason this photo is special to me is b/c this isn't a concert photo. Makes me think of what he would look like on an everyday basis. No glam or anything, just John. I was fortunate to see him a few times and when I see this pic, that's where my where I go back to. This pic is absolutely beautiful to me. Thanks Cathy for the great words. So to anyone who wants to check it out.

I remember I sent it to Washington D.C. I'll see if I still have the address somewhere. I'm not sure if the price is per song or not. Here is a suggestion if you have alot of songs that you want to protect.....This is called a "poorman's copywright". Make a tape of all your songs and mail it to yourself "CERTIFIED MAIL". When it arrives, sign for it but DON'T OPEN IT! This will hold up in a court of Law until you can afford the "real" way.

The album is No. 89 this week on The Billboard 200. is this true? did dutg sell five million? i know its triple platinum, but did it get up to five million already? i mean, i wouldn't be surprised or anything, that'd be totally cool if it did, but is it actually five times platinum? thanx for any help:) also, vh1 did a quick little news brief on the plane mishap, and i was watching trl couple minutes, and they didn't even mention what happened. like serena altshul (sp?) mentioned the golden globe nominees (which by the way, if anyone knows where i can find a list to the nominees, can you send me a link? thanx) but she didnt mention the goos at all. it was weird cause it seemed like carson daly was hinting to her to say something about it. he was like "so nothing else happened? no one o.d, no shootings? everythings okay? that's all the news?" and serena was like "that's all i know"... seems kinda weird they didnt mention it (especially since the goos on part of the fly2k contest) but oh well, what are ya gonna do? actually, the mishap has been mentioned in a bunch of entertainment newsletters i get, so its not something little, for sure... anywho, bye for now dudes:) happy holidays:) ~rachel "i don't procrastinate, i prioritize" ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 20 Dec 1999 16:38:28 EST To: goo@mailinglists.org From: Curly110@aol.com Subject: time is of the essance Message-ID: <0.f7d13651.258ffbd4@aol.com> HEy~~ I have to have the whole First Release CD on MP3 by wednesday or even thursday at the latest...PLEASE...i can't seem to find it anywhere and I wanna give a copy of the CD to my cousin for Christmas...if u have First Release and u can send me the whole CD in MP3s...PLEASE sen dit to me ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 20 Dec 1999 16:49:07 EST To: goo@mailinglists.org From: "Cathy Ravago" Subject: BritneySpearsLikesGoo,etc Message-ID: <19991220214907.91341.qmail@hotmail.com> heLLo heLLo...

He posted something a while ago - like back in early november, saying that he had certain shows for like $20 a piece or if you got two, it was $18 or something. I wanted to know, for those who have worked with him, how exactly are the quality of those CDs? Is the show completely clear, as if it were a professional recording? Were you satisfied with your purchase??? Please email me privately with your information or comments regarding this, as I am highly interested in getting one of the shows! Also - for those who have been posting stuff about the Silent Night single, and those that are not readily available on the shelves of most stores or in the internet shops, how do you go about getting them? If you knew the code number for them (like got it from Warner Bros. or whomever put it out), could you order it from them that way? Just wondering...!

I posted this a while ago, but I'll do it again because I'm just getting around to it... is anyone else, other than the ones I have already talked to and confirmed, who is interested in a photocopy of the entire Hal Leonard guitar book (with TABs) of sheet music for DUTG? I know that there are some fellow guitar players on this list who are new - so I thought that I would extend this offer to them too! I'm looking for a lot of their music (Lazy Eye is one!), so, if you've got something like that (or anything else! my goo collection is small, but steadily growing as I get the time!) that you may be able to trade - drop me a line privately ASAP, and let me know!!! And to those people (you probably won't remember, but I do!), who I was initially talking to and then just kind of dropped off of the face of the planet with (ie: Cindy, Pam, etc), I'll be in touch with you soon! Promise! If I get busy again and don't have time to do a quick post - I wish everyone the best for the holidays! Be safe (if you drink, call a cab or have someone else who's sober drive you), be smart, and have fun! Remember to say a brief thank you to whomever/whatever, if anything, you pray to/worship, for letting the goos come out of this freaky plane thing alright! Where would we be without them?? (what do you mean? Life without John, Robby, and Mike??? aaaahhhhh!!! ;) ) I do love them dearly though!

I always thought they were the same, but I was listening to the soundtrack today for the first time in a while, and it sounded different. it seemed faster, and John's voice sounded, I don't know, higher??? so anyone know if they're the same??? like I said, I thought they were, but now I'm confused. and here are the results for what the beginning of "Girl Right Next To Me" means. You changed my face I think I like it better now It doesn't matter anyhow Cuz that's the way it is responses: "I think he's using "my face" as synecdoche, using a part to represent a whole (I just had my English final today, haha). I think the person he's singing about has changed his attitude and who he is as a whole. Apparently, he likes this change, but it doesn't matter, b/c, well, that's the way it is!" "I think it means she makes him smile (happy) and he didn't notice before but now does" "Well, if you want to take it literally, it always sounded to me like cosmetic surgery...well it doesn't matter because it's something you can't change, but actually you can if you really want, plastic surgery. I'm not saying John had it but that's what I think that part of the song means." "you changed the way i am and i like it better now. and it doesn't matter b/c i'm not changing back." So those are what people think of the song. want my interpretation??? it's hard to follow so stay with me... "you changed my face" I'm assuming that John was with this girl, so by changing his face, she changed the face of the guy she was with. I took that to mean that she's dating a guy w/a new face, i.e. she dumped him. "I think I like it better now" YAY!!! I'M FREE!!! (because dude, she's only 17) If you have any further interpretations, sorry, but this category's over. when I get my website running better, I might take more. I'll think of a new lyric this week and take opinions on it soon, k??? thanks to everyone who participated!!! sorry so long!!!

It was my understand that this is a magazine some people are having difficulties finding and some of you had to order it thru their site. I ordered mine thru their site too but I found one near my home so I bought one. I enjoyed it sooo much that I thought I would type it up here for you. An early Christmas gift from me to all my GOOd friends: Performing Songwriter (Nov 199. Vol. 7, Issue 41) Goo Goo Dolls' John Rzeznik By Russell Hall Formed in the mid '80s, the Buffalo, New York-based Goo Goo Dolls hovered at the fringes of commercial success for more than a decade before breaking through to platinum sales. From the start, the group steered toward a power-pop style that made them critical darlings, but it was a beautiful acoustic ballad, titled "Name," that launched the band into the land of stardom. Since 1995, the year "Name" ascended the pop charts, the group has enjoyed a flurry of hits, and has garnered a reputation as one of America's most musically consistent bands. The Goo Goo Doll's beginnings can be traced to 1985, when 19-year-old aspiring guitarist Johnny Rzeznik was introduced to 20-year-old bassist Robby Takac. The two became fast friends and, after recruiting schoolmate George Tutuska to play drums, decided to form their own group. Taking their name from an advertisement in the back pages of TRUE DETECTIVE magazine, the Goo Goo Dolls began performing in small clubs in and around Buffalo. Though at first specialized in off-beat covers of songs by such artists as Prince and Creedence Clearwater Revival, the band soon began writing original material, most of which was penned by Rzeznik. Release in 1987 and 1989, respectively, the Goo Goo Dolls' first two albums mixed the band's own songs with a smattering of covers. Both releases generated a buzz among critics, but it was the group's 1990 efforts, HOLD ME UP, which made them a force to be reckoned with on the alternative scene. Freewheeling and spirited, the album triggered favorable comparisons to the Replacements, a band Rzeznik had often cited as an influence. Unfortunately, however, record sales were not commensurate with the accolades the group received in print. More critical raves accompanied the Goo Goo Dolls' next album, SUPERSTAR CAR WASH, which was released in 1993. Despite the inclusion of one song ("We Are The Normal"), co-written by former Replacements frontman Paul Westerberg, the album sold only modestly, and Rzeznik began contemplating a change of career. As he later told GUITAR WORLD magazine, "I didn't want to be a 35-year-old guy playing bars. It's so sad to see these guys in their late thirties who...still believe they're going to get the big record deal." Fortunately, the Goo Goo Dolls' next album, A BOY NAMED GOO, scuttled any inclination Rzeznik might've had to seek other employment. Commercially, the 1995 release got off to a slow start, but when influential L.A. radio station KROQ put the Rzeznik-penned acoustic ballad, "Name," into heavy rotation, public interest in the band began to take hold. Originally, the Goo Goo Dolls' record company hadn't planned to release the song as a single, but so dramatic was listener response that the label quickly opted to go with the flow. By the time the year was out, the Goo Goo Dolls had their first platinum album. Pleased though the group was at its good fortune, pain and controversy soon followed in the wake of the success. First, in the weeks immediately prior to the release of A BOY NAMED GOO, Rzeznik and Takac decided to fire drummer George Tutuska. (The mild-manner Mike Malinin was quietly recruited as Tutuska's replacement.) Equally distressing, Rzeznik and Takac discovered they were in the grips of a slavish contract that allotted them only a paltry percentage of album sales. A nine-month legal battle with the band's record company, Metal Blade, ensued, and ultimately a settlement was reached that freed the group from its contract. Subsequently, the Goo Goo Dolls signed with Warner Brothers Records. Largely as a result of this turmoil, as the Goo Goo Dolls approached the making of their next album, Rzeznik found himself in the throes of a harrowing writer's block. Only when the group's management company (which is also involved in film work) asked Rzeznik to write a song fro the film, CITY OF ANGELS, did the cloud begin to lift. After attending a screening of the movie, Rzeznik went home and wrote the poignant ballad, "Iris," in a matter of hours. (The song's title, incidentally--though not the song itself--was inspired by country singer-songwriter Iris Dement.) The biggest single of 1998 for Warner Music, "Iris" became the Goo Goo Dolls' first #1 hit, and helped kindle anticipation for the group's next full-length CD. In September of last year, the band released DIZZY UP THE GIRL, which became their second platinum-selling album. Their recent fame and success notwithstanding, the members of the Goo Goo Dolls remain humble. Though "Iris" garnered three Grammy nominations--for Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group With Vocal--Rzeznik insists that he's most proud of the fat that the band has remained true to its roots. Recently he told the Australian magazine, SANITY: "I'm happy that the Goo Goo Dolls wasn't put together by a producer or a record company guy. We were just three kids wanting to make some noise, hang out, and have some fun. I think the band is playing stronger than it ever has, and I'm excited about the future." --End of Part one-- ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 21 Dec 1999 00:58:45 EST To: goo@mailinglists.org, TTB@onelist.com, hdtg@onelist.com, Goo-Goo@onelist.com From: Eri11375@aol.com Subject: Performing Songwriter article Part 2 Message-ID: <0.d83d136f.25907115@aol.com> --Beginning of Part 2-- WHAT SORT OF MUSIC WAS AROUND THE HOUSE, WHEN YOU WERE GROWING UP? Mostly it was my older sisters' albums. There was a lot of Beatles, the Stones, the Kinks. And some Yes albums, oddly enough. But then the youngest of my older sisters started getting into punk, so I began picking up on bands like the Sex Pistols and the Clash. WHERE DO YOU THINK YOUR STRONG SENSE OF MELODY COMES FROM? I think a lot of that comes from listening to AM radio when I was growing up. There was a radio station in Buffalo--WKBW--that played all the hits. This was in the early '70s. By around 1980, I was getting into other kinds of music. This was after I discovered FM radio. I listened to a lot of Cheap Trick and Kiss. People don't often realize it, but Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons were really great songwriters. Kiss' songs had great hooks and melodies. WHAT DO YOU THINK STEERED YOU TOWARD MUSIC THAT WAS MORE POP-ORIENTED AS OPPOSED TO METAL-ORIENTED? Well, it's true I was different from most of my friends, who were definitely into "metal." But looking back, you can see that a lot of those vintage metal bands--Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin--wrote terrific melodies. What they did was based on real songs. WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ABOUT THEY STYLE OF MUSIC YOU HEAR TODAY ON THE RADIO OR ON MTV? Sometimes I hear a band that's really popular today, and I think, "What the hell is this?" (laughs). It makes me think I must be getting old. It seems to me that a lot of new bands try to mimic what they've heard in the past, and they end up just scratching the surface. Part of the problem, I think, is that music has become image-driven, and ghetto-ized. Musical genres have become too segregated, in that people tend to focus on one thing, and that's it. Too much of it is about having the proper tattoo or the proper pair of shorts. Music tends to be identified with certain lifestyles now, as opposed to being about the appreciation of good songwriting. LET'S TALK ABOUT YOUR SONGWRITING A BIT. WHICH TENDS TO COME EASIER TO YOU AS A WRITER--BALLADS OR ROCKERS? I don't really know. I think they're equally difficult. It all depends on how I'm feeling. When you're trying to express something you feel deeply--something that's really close to the bone--it usually comes out of you pretty easily. It only become difficult to deal with once you've gotten it out and turned it over to the public consumption. There are things I've written that I've looked at and thought, "Whoa, no way is anyone going to hear that." Sometimes I write things that I think are too personal--or maybe too specific--to share with other people. ARE THE THINGS THAT INSPIRE YOU TODAY, CREATIVELY, THE SAME SORTS OF THINGS THAT INSPIRED YOU BEFORE THE BAND BECAME COMMERCIALLY SUCCESSFUL? Oh, sure. You draw upon whatever's around you, if you're writing honestly. There is one theme I've come to see in my music. I think it often has the flavor of a guy who's looking through a window at the rest of the world. Sometimes I feel slightly separated from a lot of what I write about, like I'm just kind of observing. THERE'S A MIX, THEN, OF THE AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL AND THE PURELY OBSERVATIONAL? Absolutely. HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN YOU'RE ONTO SOMETHING GOOD? Well, first of all I don't use a tape recorder when I first begin writing. I sit on the couch, I work on something, and then I put the guitar down. If the song--or whatever I was working on--comes back to me the next day, then I know I'm onto something special. But my feeling has always been that inspiration is only a spark, which you then have to follow. And it generally lasts only for a moment. You get that spark, but then it requires work to build the fire. HOW COMPLETE DOES A SONG TEND TO BE BEFORE YOU TAKE IT TO ROBBY AND MIKE? Pretty complete. But then I'll jam with them and new ideas will come flying out of the air. At that point, I'll take the song and maybe try to rework something. Then we'll play it again. That process of messing around with a song goes on for a while. There's a lot of tinkering that goes on, even after the song structures are complete. When you start playing a song with human beings--instead of with a drum machine or an acoustic guitar--it starts to take on a different feel. You start to capture the character--and the personality--of the song. DO YOU MAKE CHANGES IN THE STUDIO AS WELL? No. Everything's ready to go by that point. I'm from the old school, in that I'm of the mind that the studio is not a place to write. When you're on an independent label--as we were--and you're only getting a couple of thousand dollars to make an album, you make damn sure you flesh out the tunes in the garage, and that they're read to go. You get a clear picture of what the songs are going to be, so that when you're in the studio the meter's running, you can get it in, get the work done, and get out. I really don't understand how anyone can spend a million dollars making an album. It's so self-indulgent. That's why you set up a studio in your garage or in your basement. ONCE YOU'RE IN THE STUDIO, HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN TO STOP ADDING THINGS TO A SONG, OR WHEN IT BEGINS TO FEEL CLUTTERED? Well, it's funny. On DIZZY UP THE GIRL, the way we worked was to put lots of tracks together, then listen to what we had, and then start subtracting things. That was interesting process, because there were things that made us go, "oh, please, just erase that" (laughs). In a way, I guess that was self-indulgent, but it certainly wasn't like trying to write a song in the studio. GIVEN THAT YOU WRITE MOSTLY ON ACOUSTIC GUITAR, HOW DO SOME OF THE MORE UPBEAT "ROCKER" TYPE SONGS UNFOLD? They always start melodically, but then when you take them to rehearsal, you might decide something might sound better electric. So you plug in the Marshall and you're on your way. I have written occasionally on electric guitar, but I've always had to live in apartments where you couldn't make much noise. I've sometimes written on electric guitars--I just don't plug them in. DO YOU USE ANY WRITING TOOLS OTHER THAN GUITARS, LIKE A 4-TRACK, FOR INSTANCE? I use a really big Sony cassette recorder (laughs). It's some sort of professional-type recorder, that allows you to plug in a full-size microphone. SO YOU DON'T HAVE A HOME-STUDIO PROPER? You know, I did try to put one together. I sat there and made sketches of what I wanted, until I figured out exactly how to put together a great 8-track home studio--one that would fit on one of those Ultimate support racks. But then I couldn't figure out how to sue it (laughs). That's when I went back to a simple tape recorder with mic attached. But I did recently buy a Roland 1680, which is a kind of all-in-one hard disc recorder. Now I'm trying to find someone to show me how to use that. I'm afraid I'm not good with technology. LET'S TALK A BIT ABOUT THE GOO GOO DOLLS' SUCCESS. IT WAS A LONG TIME COMING, BUT WHEN IT ARRIVED, IT CAME WITH A VENGEANCE. SOME LONG-TIME FOLLOWERS OF THE GROUP--PARTICULARLY CRITICS--SEEMED RESENTFUL, AS IF THEY HAD JUST LOST THEIR "POCKET" BAND. That's right. People tend to want to preserve that exclusivity. It's ironic. If I were a music writer, and I were championing a band, I would do everything I could to help them become huge. It's also strange that the media sometimes seems to put you on a pedestal just so they can get a clearer shot of you. They build you up to know you down. And it does hurt when people take shots at you. It hurts because I was always trying to be honest, in whatever I was doing. IN RETROSPECT, DO YOU THINK THE BAND'S LONG APPRENTICESHIP SERVED YOU WELL, OR WOULD YOU HAVE PREFERRED THAT SUCCESS HD COME EARLY IN YOUR CAREER? If success had come instantaneously, I would definitely have fucked it up. I would've blown all the money on stupid things, and would probably be the subject of one of those "Where Are They Now?" type shows. That's another thing that's weird to me now. When "Name" became a hit, alternative music was the "music du jour," so to speak. But today, alternative music is really second fiddle to rap, metal, or something. It's required a bit of adjustment, realizing that we're not the new thing anymore. WHEN YOU WROTE "NAME," DID YO HAVE ANY SENSE THAT YOU HAD SOMETHING SPECIAL ON YOUR HANDS? No, not at all. I just write the songs, and I leave the determination of those types of things to other people. I love all the songs I write. A lot of writers say this, but it's true: to ask a songwriter to name his favorite song is like asking another which of her children she likes best. It's like, I ain't telling (laughs). IN THE AFTERMATH OF THE GOO GOO DOLLS' SUCCESS, YOU EXPERIENCED A TERRIBLE STRUGGLE WITH WRITER'S BLOCK. DID THAT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE CONTRACT BATTLE YOU WERE HAVING WITH METAL BLADE? It had to do with a lot of battles. I felt like I was under a public microscope, and I felt like I was under a critical microscope. Everything felt really, really weird. I didn't anticipate how having some success can bring on a sort of cognitive dissonance to your brain. All of a sudden a lot of people want to talk to you or want to know you. They want to be around you and work with you. I looked at that, and my first reaction was, "Well, why didn't you want to do this before, when we weren't as successful? Why didn't you want to hang out before we had a hit?" You get surrounded by a lot of people who are full of shit, and that really messed me up. So I closed my circle, I closed myself off from everyone except the guys in the band, and my wife, and my manager--and pretty much told the rest of the world to piss off. None of it seemed real. AND THAT'S WHAT PRECIPITATED THE WRITER'S BLOCK? Yes. I was really disillusioned with the business, and with just how unsettling the whole "success" thing can be. DO YOU THINK THAT ON SOME LEVEL--EITHER CONSCIOUS OR UNCONSCIOUS -- YOU JUS DIDN'T WANT TO CREATE MUSIC ANYMORE? I think, on an unconscious level, I was scared shitless of not being able to do it anymore, although it wasn't so much that I was afraid of not being able to duplicated "Name." I was just afraid I would never be able to create something better than what I had done before, whatever that next 'something" might be. And I was very conscious of the fact that I as sick of my own record company, and all the things that were going on there. My thinking was, "I'm not an animal. I'm not a whore, and I'm not a plow-mule." My wife, who's a really wise woman, said, "You have to understand that you can always play music, until they cut your hands off, and even then you'll find a way to make music with your stumps. And that's the most important thing." In the end, I got a lot of help from a lot of really intelligent people--including people at Warner Brothers. Before, I think the regime that was in there when the whole lawsuit thing came down were a bunch of pseudo-intellectual art-mongers who like to keep musician around as some kind of exotic species. Musicians were definitely looked upon as lower life forms. But I'm not an exotic species. I'm not trying to reinvent the wheel, and sometimes being truthful isn't the most clever thing you're going to hear. I wasn't held in very high regard by those people. "A poor man's Replacements" is a phrase I seem to recall being used. WHAT WAS IT ABOUT GETTING ASSIGNED A SPECIFIC SONG TO WRITE THAT BROUGHT YOU OUT OF IT? Well, I talked a lot with two friends in particular who helped me to get over this fear. One thing they said was, "You have to have a deadline, and you have to complete a thought. If what you do sucks and you fall the first time, then just get up and do it again." I finally accepted that I was going to fall sometimes, but I also learned that the only way you fail is if you give up. And then this project--to write a song for the CITY OF ANGELS soundtrack--was shoved into my lap by my manager. There was a deadline, and I was determined to complete a thought. But I also had a lot of philosophical question in my mind about this with my life. It was a case of, "Please, God, help me find my path." When "Iris" came, that was a very loud answer from somewhere. That song came to me so fast, and then, when it was out of my hands, it just exploded in my face. It really gave me the confidence to keep writing songs. HOW DIFFICULT IS IT TO MAINTAIN YOUR CREATIVITY, WHICH REQUIRE NURTURING, IN THE MIDST OF ALL THE EXTRANEOUS STUFF THAT GOES ALONG WITH SUCCESS? IS THAT MORE DIFFICULT NOW THAT SO MUCH ATTENTION IS FOCUSED ON THE BAND? Well, I don't' write when I'm on the road. That would be too schizophrenic. To try and go from tapping into he most introverted part of myself, to being a completely extroverted, entertainer-type guy on-stage would be too difficult. It's hard enough to sing certain songs in front of a certain type of audience. If we happened to be playing some place that's really rowdy, I might pull out the acoustic guitar and think, "this doesn't feel right tonight." DO YOU HAVE ENOUGH CONTACT WITH YOUR AUDIENCE TO TELL WHETHER OR NOT THEY UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE ALL ABOUT? I think there's a certain number of people who get what we're doing. And I think there's another set of people who really love "Name" and "Iris," who then come to the shows and get a bit of an education about the rest of what we're about. I don't know that they LIKE the rest of what we're about, but I am happy they like something I've done. ARE THERE ANY UP-AND-COMING ARTISTS YOU'RE ESPECIALLY EXCITED ABOUT, THESE DAYS? I think Ben Lee's latest release, BREATHING TORNADOES, is a great album. When you listen to his first album, and then listen to BREATHING TORNADOES, you can hear someone really coming of age as an artist. It's exciting to hear that happening. And there's' a band called Head Candy, on Link Records, who writes sort of melodic psychedelia, slightly ambient music. There's also a band that played with us on tour, called Doosu, that I like. They're on a record label out of Dallas called One Ton. DO YOU HAVE ANY SPECIFIC ADVICE FOR ASPIRING MUSICIANS? Actually, I would suggest several things. First, play music that you believe in. Play music that moves your soul and makes you feel good when you play it, because in the even you do become successful, you're going to have to play that music every night. And if you don't like it, and if you don't mean it, a night is gonna come along where you're going to go, "Fuck this." Secondly, don't' ever become outcome-oriented. Suppose you don't become famous--so what? If your music moves you, it's valid. Fame is a passing, fleeting thing, so just try to be as good as you can at what you do. Third, never sign anything until you find a qualified entertainment lawyer. And the place to look for them is either New York or Los Angeles. Lastly, there are couple of books that every musician should read. If a record company--or a publishing company--become seriously interested in you, you should read ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE MUSIC BUSINESS, by Donald Passman. If you read that book and comprehend it and continue to refer back to it, you won't get into trouble.

I just wanted to let you know that I have a copy of the first ever issue of Rolling Stone the Goos were in for sale at Ebay. If you go to www.ebay.com and click on 'search', it is item # 224303587. This issue is from 1991, so it is very rare and no longer available on backorder. The article is in the 'New Faces' section and is about a half a page long. The article includes a great pic of the guys from thier 'Hold Me Up' era and is very similar to the pic on the collector's music card...but better, cuss you can see John's tummy! lol =-Þ Both the magazine and the page the Goos are on is in excellent condition...no tears, creases, etc... The article is pretty interesting, talking about how they'd matured musically from thier previous two albums, and includes quotes from all three members (from when George was in the band) and even a mention of the incredable Lance Diamond! Don't miss out guys, and if you don't have $ right this moment, don't worry, I've extended the payment time to one month knowing how tight the Holiday Season can be. I've also got great + feedback, so you can rest assured about bidding on this item. E-mail me if you have any Q's ;-) Good Luck and Happy Holidays! P.S. Just in case you didn't know allready, the 'Black Balloon' sheet music has been released...if you can't find it for sale in the stores, I've seen it on Ebay too...the person I bought it from is very reliable and professional ;-) Also, after reading the answers to the 'Gooey X-mas', I was elated to find out that 'Black Balloon' was recorded 'live' in Seattle, wooooohooooo....I was there, just a few blocks from them when that took place! I wish I could say I want them back here asap, but after the recent plane 'mishap', my conscience wants them to go home and stay put for a while. I, too, was having flashbacks of the 'Buddy Holly' story running through my head knowing how hectic thier lives have been lately. Glad your ok guys, and hope you get home safe and sound ;-) Oh yes...and don't you just love the pic of John in those funky glasses in the Nylon mag...I had a good laugh at that one! And the nice guy that he is, put a lot of great pics of his buddy in there and threw in some of himself with what looked to be having a really bad hair day...lol...gawd I love these guys! ~Traci~ ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 21 Dec 1999 08:12:44 EST To: goo@mailinglists.org From: Diva5134@aol.com Subject: Performing Songwriter Message-ID: <0.42c38cdd.2590d6cc@aol.com> I happen to have an extra copy of Performing Songwriter that I'd be willing to trade..

We were like ~Is this some Kind of Joke there trying to pull on us?~ (lol) but it wasnt! At our school at the end of the day annocments its always Have a Somethin Something day. And students request what they put on. So we walk down to the office and we like "this going to sound strange but can you put on Have a Get well Goo Goo Dolls day. We gave our little begging act about how they were doing something nice etc. They put it on. The whole school knew who put it on, were the only OBSSESIVE goo fans. Robbys parents where on the news that night talking about it. ( remember I live close to there hometown). There like " robby isn't a very emotional person. He called us and said Im okay ( I didn't hear the rest) Hes shaken up though. ( I would be traumitized for Life!) GGD made th front page of the Buffalo News for it. Heres the article: Goo Goo Dolls unhurt in crash off run way Sigonella, Sicily - Buffalo's Goo Goo Dolls were involved in a crash at a military air base in Sicily after returnig from a Christmas mission to entartain troops in Europe, a US Navy official said Sunday. No one was hurt in the incident at Sigonella naval air station in the west of the Mediterranian island. " At around 9:30 p.m. ( local time), the C-9 transport plane slid off the runway while making a landing at the naval air station here, Lt. Cappy Surette told Reuters by phone. plane " They're OK. They were scared. The ^ went back onto the grass and then went back on the runway," said Mary Melia a spokesperson for the band. " Robbie ( Takac) said its the scariest thing that ever happened to him." Melia said the plane attempted two landing approaches in severe rain, wind, and lighting conditions before touching down on the third attempt. The plane skidded off the run way a nd slid back again , causing damage to the crafts landing gear and wing. The air crew opened the hatches, and all passangers exited emergency chutes onto the run way, she said. No serious injuries have been reported, other than minor bumps, bruises and lacerations. " Robby got cut on his hand, he said," Melia said. While the weather was a factor --- it was rainy and there was lighting and high winds ( see Dolls page A-9) I can't speculate on the overall cause of the mishaps . An investigation will be launched," Surette said. Surette said 30 people were on board including military personnel and the bands entourage. There was some damage to the plane, but that was still being assessed, he said. " We're very realived no one was hurt. The Goo Goo Dolls have taken time out of their world tour to entertain troops and there families, and we want them to get home saftey," he said. The saftey of our military personnele and our guests is always our primary concern . We are fortunate that there were no injuries," Surette added. Bosnia was the last stop on the band's European military Christmas tour, which saw them play for thousands of American service men and women. "They had a great time," Melia said, adding that the inauspicious landing would not taint the trip for the band. The Goo Goo Dolls are headed home today, she said. The Band, signed to Warner record label, recently released their sixth album, " Dizzy up the Girl" Their big hit, "Iris" was included on the sound track for "City of Angels."
