My friend knows George Tutuska!!

My friend Sterling sent me a message today through myspace saying he knows George! Here is what he wrote me: Hi again Lauren: I saw on your profile that you're a fan of the Goo Goo Dolls. Their original drummer lives about five houses up the street from me. George Tutuska, I believe is his name. Pretty nice guy; I actually had to knock on his door one day to let his wife know that their dog had escaped from their back yard, and then he came out and I helped him get his dog back inside, LOL. I had no idea who he was at the time. Later on someone mentioned it to me and I looked him up online and sure enough, it was him. Sterling is a writer. He wrote a book about Styx and he is doing one about Journey right now. I told him to do one about the Goos! I'll let you know what he says. Lauren

I can't decide if that's totally awesome or not (I'm not a George fan) Do you figure George wakes up every morning, looks at himself in the mirror and goes, "WHY?!!! Noooo!" I would. It'd be as bad as all those publishers who passed up Harry Potter.

| lol, he should be. But really, that's kinda cool! I was never a fan of the Goos when George was the drummer but I really think he did some awesome drumming on the earlier records. I would freak out if I ever saw him (though I'm not sure I would recognize him now).

That is cool. It's always fun when you realize a celebrity or favorite band is connected to you by only a couple degrees of separation.

Um, yeah, I've got a couple friends who know him too. (And I've met him. And I've seen him play a couple times too. He's an awesome drummer.)

| I don't know. He has a family, owns a construction company and plays in a band he seems pretty happy in. He might not be rich or famous, but he seems to be doing alright for himself. It seems like a better life than being around people he didn't get along with and doing something he wasn't so interested in doing anymore.

| Reeeeeeally??!! Like nmf said, I think George is cool with what he's doing now, and that's the important thing. It isn't always about amassing the biggest amount of $$. I mean, I could never equate the value of one of my children compared to money. No way, no how.

I know, he's probably perfectly happy with where he is now, and that's cool. I'm just being silly.

That is so cool that some of you know people who know George! I know people who know Greg Suran! It's nice to know that George is doing well for himself.

| I know Greg Suran. ... No I don't. But I'm myspace friends with him! And my friend, Amber, has actually gotten responses when she messaged him! I think she asked him if he would ever consider touring with Goo again, and he sort of beat around the bush and didn't answer.
