From rphpeet@nf.sympatico.ca Sun Jun 14 13:53:18 1998 The Goos just entered the #8 spot on Caseys Top 40 (yippee) But instead of saying "that was the Goo Goo Dolls" Casey goes "that was Johnny Rzeznik & the Goo Goo Dolls". I have no idea why, but that made me soooo mad. They used to do that to No Doubt ALL the time "that was Gwen Stefani & No Doubt." I hated that so much becasue Tony and Tom and Adrian had just as much to do with that band as Gwen, but since she was the eye candy they singled her out and made the others second rate. They better not make Mike and Rob just 2 guys backing up John, or I am gonna freak. Just me rambling, Heidi From spe56036@umes-bird.umd.edu Mon Jun 15 00:57:39 1998 um...its fuckin CASEY CASEM OR HOW EVER YOU SPELL IT who cares what he sez or does. I don't think the other g00s give a flying monkey's red swollen arse about him or what he says. if yer gonna freak about somethin...make sure it is worth while King N0thing and the Freak Police "If yer gonna spew...spew in this" From fabfay@aol.com Mon Jun 15 05:36:17 1998 Yeah, Heidi, they did this all the time with No Doubt and it caused problems. The Goos may be more mature about it, but personally I agree with you. It takes a lot of hard work by more than one person to make a good band. We fans call them Goos, etc, but I prefer it when my radio guys call them the Goo Goo Dolls. Not, the Goos, and not the Goo Goos. No wonder people don't know who they are! My local radio guy even announced that they were working hard on their SECOND album!!! Man, I wish they'd get the facts straight before they say it on the air!!! Rock On, Heidi Goo! Fay From eaf@fabiano.com Mon Jun 15 13:02:45 1998 I'm sure that the bio casem was reading from said something to the effect that johnny wrote the song based loosely upon his interpretation of the film blah blah blah and because he is credited with sole writing credits for the song, they marquee his name because they're too lame to know the history of the band and too freakin lazy to look it up. Ed From Cheese16@webtv.net Mon Jun 15 22:14:39 1998 I agree with heidi, this could become a problem, either the other guys could get pissed or Johnny could get a big head and try some kind of solo career. Have you seen the video for Lazy Eye? It's all about showing Johnny throughout most of it, and that's not a good sign. Just like when they were on 90210 it was all about Johnny then too! LOOK OUT!!! See Ya, Cheese From zipdrive@iname.com Tue Jun 16 15:50:26 1998 Hey Ryan, I have to agree about the Lazy Eye video thing. I was also kind of disappointed with the Iris video (I've only seen it once!!) cause it was mostly Johnny...I mean, I know he wrote it and all, but they could have shown Mike and Robby a little more. I hope that Robby doesn't feel bad about all of this....cause Robby rules too. Karen From ptmcnee@aol.com Wed Jun 17 06:51:50 1998 I definitely agree!!! I love both of the videos, of course cuz they are Goo, but I would like to see all the band members shown a little more. Theresa
