What is this? Amature hour? I am shocked at the amount of people who
have got on this newsgroup and babbled about seing the group for the
first time and really liking the group but do not know their names,
blah, blah, blah. The band has been around for quite a while and there
are many very good web sites out there for anyone to go to, to find out
their favorite Goo's name, and all of that info., but they'd rather be
lazy and look like fools to the rest of us who have followed the Goo's
long enough to tell you how many albums they have out and we can
probably name all of the songs on each album in order. They'll all come
on and say how "fine" they think the "lead singer" is, and say how great
they think Iris is, but we all now that if they had never seen the video
they wouldn't like the song as much! Is this a high school forum where
teeny boppers all sit around and gossip about the cute boy in gym class?
I could handle 1 or 2 of these letters but this is becoming a regular
thing now. I used to come here to interact with other Goo lovers about
things going on with the band, comment about songs and talk about music
in general, if I wanted to talk about "boys" I would be logging on to
the babysitters club newgroup!

See Ya,
     Cheese

Hi Candi!

The Goo Goo Dolls are Johnny Rzeznik (lead singer and guitar), Robby Takac
(bass guitar) and Mike Malinin (drums).  The name Goo Goo Dolls was picked a
long time ago and because of their growing popularity over the years they're
kind of stuck with it now.   

I'm glad you like the band and the song, "Iris".  It's a great starting point
to discover what the Goo Goo Dolls have done over the past 10+ years.  Pick up
an album or two and enjoy them!
