We realized that we had a rapport among us and in that rapport was power. "And we realized that our day jobs (as the Goo Goo Dolls) didn't suck as bad as we had thought," he said, laughing (Robby).

interesting, but i thought they were looking thru a magazine before a gig, saw an advertisement for a "goo goo doll" and that's where it came from. i'm not 100% sure though really! -Babs

Interesting. I was under the impression that the band name had come from "True Detective" magazine (as Babs said an ad on the back for a 'goo goo doll') However, this sheet music & corresponding song/music is about a 'goo goo doll', so perhaps this is something that refers to the original doll that was advertised? I guess we'll never know for sure..............

Yeah, they got the name from an ad in True Detective Magazine. A goo goo doll was something with a squishy face or something really strange. They were quite ugly!
