Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by starchild on Oct 17th, 2004, 3:59am Hi Emily ;) (where are you?) Nooo.. haven't heard GALB on the radio, how about we bug Triple M/Austereo to play it, could request by email, phone and fax. Gonna fax Warner about the DVD cos no one else has heard of it. :'( Rockstarcowgirl how about it? Any other aussies pestered their local station? OT - Keith Urban was on Backstage Pass this afternoon, what a babe! and seemed so nice and grounded./ :thumbsup: And he's here in February. |

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by Emily on Oct 17th, 2004, 6:45am im in vic, what about you? YES! We must bug triple m! i've been requesting online every couple of days... now it will have to be EVERY DAY!! �:D hehe let me know what you find out about the dvd... coz i rang jb hifi (they seem to have the most goo stuff) to see if they were getting it in and they didn't know anything about it! �:-/ WE MUST GET TO WORK ON THIS!! �;) |

Hey there...huge Keith Urban fan here. He is AMAZING live. If you have the chance to see him when he's in Oz definitely do it. You will NOT be disappointed. Have you bought his new CD? It's fantastic. The man is a guitar God. Definitely go see him live. |

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by starchild on Oct 17th, 2004, 5:09pm Hey ShanGooFan, I knew someone was a great Fan :D I don't have his CD but will have to get it, I guess I always thought he was 'straight' country but really he crosses over into other genres (duh!). It's funny the interviewer said no one realises what a great guitarist he actually is, even Tommy Emmanuel (who's like the guitar god here) pays him homage as a great player. :thumbsup: Would love to go to his concert in Feb.

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by TomOAus on Oct 18th, 2004, 11:49pm Hi fellow Aussies. Im 21 and from melbourne, so great to c fellow australians on here, seems that the GGD fans in australia are unfortuantely few and far between. I have requested GALB on triple m and that seems to me the best chance of getting played. Such a shame thats there such sh*t on radio these days, lets hope it is a hit. Im gonna keep calling around to see when the dvd/cd is released here, im sure it will be, as the live in alaska dvd was eventually released. |

Athena, awww thank you, you're so sweet. If it weren't for this board, I would probably be going Goo crazy - or suffering some serious withdrawal. I have actually seen INXS play sort of. They were on a boat a million miles from nowhere in a lake during the Goodwill Games in Queensland and it was with the new singer. Hold tight and wait til my holidays and I will see if I can hunt down some articles for you :) It's good to see dedicated and passionate rock fans still exist ;) |

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by TomOAus on Oct 23rd, 2004, 6:38am I havnt pre ordered. I remember the MIHP dvd was released like 4 months after the american release, so that would probly be the case with the dvd. If the cd comes seperate that would be a better bet for the earlier release. Cuz if i remember Gutterflower was released like 2 weeks after the American release. Lets hope, and keep bugging JB, hmv, sanity and so on. |

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by starchild on Oct 28th, 2004, 6:15am Hey guys The guy looked up the Warner Music sheet and for the DVD/CD it said 15 November, I'm just hoping it's right. I'll ring the dude tomorrow before I get too excited. TomOAus it should be region 4 for an Oz DVD, but if you've got multi region DVD you would be ok too.

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by TomOAus on Oct 28th, 2004, 8:02am The fact that it is being released over here is good news enough. I doubt it will be released here november 15, gutterflower and MIHP were after the US release. But if it was released on the 15 then FINALLY us Aussies would get something before everyone in USA. Do you think the guys will tour Australia for the new album? Cuz last time they were here i went to m-one just to c em. |

Apparently things are released here first, quite often... sort of like a test market. coz its cheaper to just print a few copies off here and see how it goes than in the us, coz we have a smaller population or something. so maybe the 15th is right.

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by TomOAus on Nov 1st, 2004, 1:15am i went to the melbourne m-one, everyone i spoke to at that concert agreed that the goo goo dolls were the best gig there by an absolute mile (nickelback, simple plan, garbage and others) all played but the ggd were a standout.

I converted a good friend of mine at M-One, but besides that none of my friends likes them particularly. How did you guys end up going with the DVD? I gave up long ago on record stores having a clue after several blank faced conversations. So I ordered it from Amazon and sit here waiting,.... waiting.... waiting....! Did what I could to get the Aussie love out there when in the States so the boys know there's a few of us down here at least and promised to come back with the next album. Meanwhile, I'll just go back to sitting and watching the mailbox! Seeya Gnomie |

I ordered my DVD from Sanity Carindale, supposedly 6 December! my we'll see, Warner says February :'( You're beanie sounds cool, I love that DVD, specially the mud sliding bit and where Robby goes in the river and his "bits" shrink. Whereabouts in Brizzie? I'm in Morningside. Emma |

Hi Joelage As far as I know an Australian, hence the so-called "production problems". Can you get a region 4 dvd on import? I don't know, my dvd's not multi region so that's a bugger. Still waiting for Dec 6 to see if it comes in (having deja vu) ;D Emma |

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by [joelage] on Nov 29th, 2004, 8:11pm production problems hhha must be the warm weather! well, i'm not sure if my DVD has been region locked, i'm sure it isnt, but id like the australian version. 6th of DEC is much better sounding than next year let me know when you find a place that sells the DVD, i'll let you know if i find it too! joel. |

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by googirldownunder on Dec 6th, 2004, 6:11am Well I work at HMV, and as yet we don't have anything on our system to say if there's a release date. One of the guys I work with, his girlfriend works at Warner, so I'll ask him if he can find anything out for me. It's very strange that they haven't even got a release date for here yet. Despite us feeling like we're rather lonely down here, I must admit that the Goo's do have a fairly solid fanbase here. |

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by googirldownunder on Dec 6th, 2004, 6:29am Yeah, they are a mainstream pop/rock act that appeal to so many different people across all areas. I know quite a few people that like the band, they're just not obsessive about them the way I am. Strange.......... |

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by googirldownunder on Dec 6th, 2004, 6:49am Well the reason why I've not been down here posting in ages is coz I've been following and working with some Australian bands. So my time has been quite taken up with other musical entities that's left me little time or energy to check up on this place. Although I love the WOG board, I find it hard to keep up with all the posting and news, especially since I live in the Land Down Under :-[ |

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by googirldownunder on Dec 8th, 2004, 6:45am Right now I'm working with Thirsty Merc, and I might possibly be doing some stuff with Taxiride shortly. I might also be helping out my friend's band, just a local Latin-funk outfit from Sydney doing some managing for them. I work at HMV, but the other stuff I'm doing with the bands is just volunteer (no pay :-/) and just as a way of getting experience in the industry. Well hopefully we have some sort of rough date to look forward to, I'm going to keep looking into it though. |

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by Emily on Dec 14th, 2004, 3:13am haven't heard galb yet..... it was/still is on the sydney nova playlist last time i checked tho... in the past few months i've heard iris twice, and slide once. i dont listen to the radio much at all so thats pretty good. Every time i've listened to the radio this week i hear either 'rock lobster' (haha that songs good) or 'she will be loved'... i hate that song......... |

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by TomOAus on Dec 14th, 2004, 5:35am I heard Iris while i was at work, a customer walked past and said to her husband "oh i love this song it was on city of angels who sung it' i told em.

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by TomOAus on Dec 19th, 2004, 11:43pm I worry about Australia following the US music scene and just listening to awful RnB. For example we have produced one of the greatest country singers of all time in Keith Urban and he barely rates a mention, which is a real shame. The goo goo dolls suffer the same, while talentless Aus Idols sell the records. Really disenchanted with the music industry |
||
|
Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by starchild on Dec 20th, 2004, 6:08am I here ya TomOAus, it seems like it's always driven by the media not talent, seems a shame. Keith Urban had to go O.S. to get recognition - I guess our loss is America's gain. Still an aussie spunk though :P Emma |
||
|
Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by TomOAus on Dec 20th, 2004, 6:32am LOL my girlfriend is obsessed with Keith Urban and somehow i dont think its for his musical talents. Ah well good luck to the guy hes made it big in USA. And to any American forumites, all Aussie guys look like him ;) |
||
|
Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by Emily on Dec 20th, 2004, 8:36pm i know what you mean about keith urban..... i didn't even know about him until like a month ago or so, yet all the american fans on here did...and i heard him on the radio for the first time the other day. and dont get me started on australian idol "talent" pfffft........... >:( |
||
|
Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by RockStarCowgirl on Dec 21st, 2004, 1:17am i have been a fan of Keith Urban for a few years now, and he is awesome, but the thing is that listening to him, you can't tell he's Aussie cos he sings the "Americanised country" music, not the outback country aussie style like kasey chambers if you get what i mean! I am happy that kasey donovan won over anthony in idol though |

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by Emily on Dec 23rd, 2004, 6:32pm quick people! only two days left until the essential countdown!! http://www.mrock.com.au/music/essential/index.php sorry...but i really wanna hear some goo on the radio! :D |

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by xGooxGooxDollsx on Dec 26th, 2004, 11:18pm There's this one main radio station that I usually listen to, but they haven't played GALB ONCE!! So I'm naturally very po'd and I have decided to boycott them until they start playing them. :darkcloud: |

Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by ramone on Jan 4th, 2005, 7:15am hey emily and tom and every 1 else i realy do think we should just flood mmm and nova with galb if we do they will have to but we will have to all work together... |
||
|
Title: Re: galb (australia) Post by TomOAus on Jan 4th, 2005, 9:26am I really hope we can do it Ramone. Triple M will play Jet all day if they could, it will be hard to get the goo goo dolls on but we should all try. Its so annoying listening to the radio and the same sh*t being played. Stations like nova and triple m will play predictable stuff, i dunno if they would take a chance on the ggd...... BUT They are having some special thing on saturday where if u ring in with a donation they will aparently play ANY song u request. So lets c if they play GALB when we call..... |

Title: Re: galb (australia) [the thread that never dies] Post by googirldownunder on Feb 8th, 2005, 6:00am I was looking through "The Music Network" which is a specially released magazine for music retailers and radio stations. In there they had a release date for "Live In Buffalo" for Australia as February 7th, but honestly I think that's wrong. I haven't seen any release dates anywhere, nor is it listed with either of the 2 major retailers - HMV or Sanity. My boss (at HMV), her dad works at Warner, so I'm going to see if he can find anything out, or can direct me to somebody who might. This is getting ridiculous.......... >:( |

Title: Re: galb (australia) [the thread that never dies] Post by TomOAus on Feb 8th, 2005, 7:11pm Yeh it will be released on feb 7th................2006 im not even waiting for it anymore cuz i dont think it will ever be released here. I just hope the new album is released here |

Title: Re: galb (australia) [the thread that never dies] Post by Emily on Feb 9th, 2005, 4:08am i seriously dont understand why it hasn't been released here yet. I ordered it off amazon a while ago... you guys are strong..... being able to wait this long lol. |

Title: Re: galb (australia) [the thread that never dies] Post by googirldownunder on Feb 9th, 2005, 5:17am Well I don't have a credit card, and I don't particularly like using my mum's all the time. Also there's some sort of sentimentality going on with me where I like to buy the Australian release first, THEN get the imports. Go figure....... ::) |
||
|
Title: Re: galb (australia) [the thread that never dies] Post by [Joelage] on Feb 14th, 2005, 8:37pm ok, You can buy it from JB-HiFi now, and they will order it in on your behalf (ie, no credit cards needed) they charge about $41 AUS, and apparently takes 6-8 weeks to come down. you have to put a minimum of $5 deposit down. I went for it because apparently there are no plans for that dvd/cd to come to australia, and i dont have a credit card etc. If i do find it cheaper from another store, i can ask for a refund and they said they can give your deposit back.. So, there you go! let me know if you find it in a store, or ordered any cheaper! |

Everytime they play GALB here, they always say... and that was Give A Little Bit Originally done by Supertramp. They bring all notations to supertramp and rarely give Goo the credit for bringin it back! They I guess assume everyone knows it's Goo. I'm ready to go call 'em and give em the dickens |

Title: Re: galb (australia) [the thread that never dies] Post by googirldownunder on Mar 21st, 2005, 3:36am I've only heard "GALB" on the radio like twice, and yes, I have to agree, both times they've always made mention of it being a Supertramp song. :P |

Title: Re: galb (australia) [the thread that never dies] Post by blessed_by_goo on Mar 21st, 2005, 8:02am I understand that its a remake and all, but there are other remakes out there, they don't ALWAYS mention who the original creator was with them.... GALB has gotten lots of airtime here, don't they think we KNOW who the hell the original artist is by now. I can't tell you how many times I hear them play it and NOT mention it's GOO. It's REALLY starting to PISS me off! |

Title: Re: galb (australia) [the thread that never dies] Post by Tracey on Mar 21st, 2005, 5:55pm I live on the Central Coast of N.S.W. and 2 of the radio stations here are playing GALB. Star 104.5 play it every now and then but seafm 101.3 play it often. The other day I was taking my son to school and heard it on the way then when I picked him up in the afternoon I heard it again what a great day twice in one day |

Title: Re: galb (australia) [the thread that never dies] Post by ShanGooFan on Apr 4th, 2005, 7:57am Hey Aussies...I finally had time this morning to read this ENTIRE thread. I see some of you are Keith Urban fans and had to share my excitement about that. I've seen him 4 times in the past year and will be seeing him twice this coming week. I was wondering if any of you had the opportunity to see him when he was in Oz in February? He is fantastic/amazing live. He was so proud to return to his home country and have such a strong response ...he sold out every show on his tour. I know he plans to focus more on Oz now to try to grow his fan base now that he's doing so well in the US. I know it bothers him terribly that he has to work soooo hard to find a fan base in his home country. He is just so amazingly talented it just blows my mind. I would have posted this OT but with so many Aussies right here I figured it would be easier. |

Title: Re: galb (australia) [the thread that never dies] Post by googirldownunder on Apr 4th, 2005, 9:23am Hey Shannon, I work at HMV (Aus leading music/dvd retailer) and I walk past the Keith Urban CDs everyday. I keep wondering if I should give it a spin and see what it's like. I've never been much into country music - but from what I hear it's more a country/rock/pop blend. Oh and back to topic for a moment......... I've been hearing GALB every day for the last week on Mix 106.5 FM (Sydney) but it's frustrating me that Nova hasn't picked up on it. Any other GOObers here from Sydney that want to help me do a request-a-thon? |

He's not very country sounding at all which is why he appeals to me. He's a very nice blend of rock/country but in a good way ;D I'd give Golden Road a listen first, then Be Here. There are some phenomenal guitar solos on Be Here in songs like She's Gotta Be and Nobody Drinks Alone. On Golden Road check out the guitar solo in Raining On Sunday...phenomenal. Keith is beyond talented as a songwriter and guitar player. He is definitely doing what he was born to do. If you've ever seen him play a guitar it's like an extension of himself...effortless and a pure joy to him and everyone watching him play. Again ... sorry to be OT. |

I will have to check into what Warner say, but I haven't seen anything on the HMV database. Bugger really coz the Warner rep came in last week and I could've asked him..............dang it! � :P PS: Long live this thread!!!!!!! :nanner: |
