Hehehe...I'm probably going to be the only guy sticking up for Heather here,
if she like the GGD's for even just thier looks...so what. She has freedom of
speech here so if she wants to COMMENT on thier looks...so what. The plus
here is that she also likes their music. Even though I've liked and listened
to them since they were trying to put out cd's on $700 budgets :), I got into
them because my cousin (now living on Grand Island) was involved with
Johnny...does that make me less of a fan? I bet you Heather may get some of
thier older stuff (or even Dizzy up the Girl..) and not like thier more
"heavy" sound. And that's ok too. We oughta get Johnny on here and post a
message about it....hehehe, not only would he be flaterred, I really don't
think he would give a flyin' f*ck...Just drop the whole subject for now and
Heather, let me know if you like any of thier older stuff...and don't worry
about what anyone says...Remember, just b/c it fits doesn't mean it looks
good :)  Jonathan Simpson  JonathanM.simpson1@juno.com

P.S. And whoever called her a "teeny-bopper" need to get a life quick, I
think the Goos would agree with me on that one. You don't cut down any other
fans. This n/g is for EVERYONE...not just us vets...
