Hey guys...what are your feelings on this....

<< Now, with success and the subsequent shift in stature comes other
changes, one of the most notable being an additional member. There will
now be four Goos on stage -- the band has hired a touring guitarist,
breaking the three-man format that has been standard for the last eleven
years. >>

Ah, touring guitarist. And to think my father wanted me to go to college. Hi
folks - Nathan here. I was as surprised as anyone to catch that little Rolling
Stone blurb (interesting that the author can't seem to decide whether I'm a
'fourth member' or a 'touring guitarist'). You know what I think would be a
good job title? How about 'lifelong fan of the band'? How about 'just glad to
help out'? Let's all remember: the written word can come off the page in funny
ways sometimes. We all know that one of the most awesome things about the Goos
has always been the power of their whole three-piece situation, and how
honestly their music has come across, based on that set up. Anybody who thinks
that excellence is going to be compromised is sadly mistaken. For me, it's just
an honor and a pleasure to be able to help out, but I hope there isn't going to
be some 3-piece vs. 4-piece shitstorm over this; it just isn't worth the
energy, is it? O.k., I'm done venting like an amature.

Later,

Nathan

Nathan,

You are too funny!! :)))  We are thrilled that you are working with the
Goo's!!!  And whoever isn't happy about it.......well.......their opinion
doesn't count, thats all there is to it!! ;) 
The Goo's are such an amazing band, and they just get better all the time. I
don't understand why it would matter to anyone how many band members there are.
 And I'm sure its an honor for THEM to have YOU working with them as well. :) 
Keep up the good work, and I'm looking forward to seeing you at one of the
upcoming shows.

Hmmmm. . . we could think of lots of names for you, Nathan!

"Luckist-Guy-on-Earth" comes to mind quickly!!  You KNOW there will be a GREAT
deal of discussion about whether you'll be the fourth Goo or already ARE the
fourth Goo.  That's a given!   

Whatever your "official" title, we're all happy that you've become our Nathan
Goo!

Fay
