I first heard of the Goos when the song "Name" came out. I really became a fan after watching an interview with John on Vh1. He was talking about his years growing up and his strained relationship with his father. Since we are about the same age, I related to a lot of what he was saying. When I first listened to "Broadway", I knew it was written about his father. I started buying more of their C.D.'s (I have them all!) and really enjoy their music, especially the lyrics which are written from the heart. It has been neat to watch them develop over the years and see how they have evoloved as a band and as individuals. I saw them live New Year's Eve 12/04 and at the Lounge For Life Concert 10/15/05. I think they are an awesome band!!

hmmm. . .one day i'm sitting at home and my friend calls and tells me to put it on MTV this really cool song was on. it was Iris, i wasn't all that impressed at first (please don't hate me!) but the lead singer had really hot hair. *so hot* i bought the soundtrack because they played the song to death and i couldn't be cool without it cuz everyone had it. then i heard Slide and became obsessed. singing "do you wanna get married or runway," over and over until i found out who sang it and was surprised it was the Iris band. went online found out they had more CD's, bought 'em liked 'em, went to concerts, spent lots-o-money on Goo stuff, made a website and now there's no turning back. . .

Actually my mom liked them first she liked them when "Here Is Gone" came out and she thought that the lead singer was sooooooo hot but i didn't really pay attention so about a year ago when LIB came out ( I know i know i am a late goober) on direct tv they played it everyday and my mom was so excited so she watched it so she was like why don't you comewatch it so i did and fell in love with every song right away and i was like WOW THAT GUY IS GEORGEOUS so i watched it every time it came on and it came on every three hours everyday so i bought every album and loved ever song and like goober said there is no turning back!!! I can't wait to see them in concert!!!!

I first became a fan when a friend of mine and myself were goin' out for a mom's nite out...she had the cd with "Name" on it...I fell in love with John's voice as soon as I heard the song...I then started checkin' into who this excellent band was and discovered that John and mine's mom passed away when we were the same age...after that I just started listenin' to every Goo song I could find and get every cd I could get my hands on...I totally loved their music and have been a fan ever since!!
Since I'm the same age as John I totally love the idea of an "ole" guy with a great voice, leading a great band that has soooooo daaang much energy and puts his heart into his lyrics and music...
and before I make anyone upset about callin' John "ole"...I totally mean it in a lovin' way....after all I'm "ole" tooo.... 
Celena
P.S.
It also helps to love him 'cause of his gorgeous eyes!!!
