Title: 3 questions
Post by girlnamedgrace on Jan 28th, 2005, 7:31am
Ok, so while watching the Oxegen concert for about the 1000th time I got to thinking(wow I sound like Carrie from sex and the city) if you the chance to ask the goos 3 questions, what would they be?

I would ask:

1)What on earth is em elbmuh all about?
2)Who is 'Only One' really about?
                                 And
3)Can I have your e-mail addresses so we can be internet pen pals!?! ;)

My question would be:

"Silent Night.  What were you thinking? (or drinking?)"

Of course, this is provided I could actually speak to them without passing out or something.

hmm...great thred! I would probably ask:

1- how do you get from listening to punk to writing pop? don't it feel weird when u think about it?

2- would ya ever shave your heads?  :P

3- what about kiddies!? (maybe I should ask john and mike about wifes 1st...but kids are more important!!!)

I know...dumb questions...

girlnamedgrace..
I'm just guessing, but doesnt ONLY ONE sound like It's about criticising the way public idolizes people after they "tragically" die? ya know...James Dean, Elvis, Sid Vicious, Kurt Cobain thing?

anti-hero idol with a suicide excuse, a thousand other suckers will try to fill your shoes.

I know Mike's fave goo song was Hate This Place at one point, but I dont know if it still is and if it was Pre-GF when he said that.

Robby and John answered number 2 already...lol I was bored the other day and reading a bunch of old threads on here and there was a transcript of a chat they did...I think it was Saz_Goo who asked the question. They said they would shave their heads for charity.

I hope they don't though. I think Robby's like Samson in the bible...all his awesome powers are contained in his hair and if he shaves it off it just won't be the same. LOL

John also said he'd like to have kids, and he'd "kick their asses if they wanted to go into the music industry" lol

Emily, i think the goos will come back to Australia just for the beer ;D At M-One they were interviewing them on a big screen and they were sobering up from the night before and said how they all felt a bit under the weather but loved VB(melbourne beer).
To the quesitons.
1. Will you tour Australia again
2. Whats your least fav song you have written
3. How much longer will the ggd last

Post by peanut on Jan 30th, 2005, 9:15am
I would ask

1. �What is your favorite thing to do on a day off?

2. �What would you like to do that you havn't been able to do?

3. �Why do you always mumble the words in Dizzy?

That's my favorite song and I hate when he doesn't speak the words clearly and puts in those ooh ahhs instead of you are.

Post by johnnyrzeznik_girl on Jan 30th, 2005, 12:01pm

ME TOO!

Oh man, listening to Live In Buffalo I was surprised that no one else had brought it up before (at least not to *my* knowledge) because it's SO obvious to me!

I'm glad I'm not the only one that hears it and goes crazy. Haha.  :D

Yeah, I wondered what was up with that!

Right, I got bored in class today and for some reason this thread popped into my head. And a whole bunch of questions. There are more than three, but I'm gonna post 'em anyway. Because it's more fun that way  ;D

* What's your favourite memory of the early days of the band? (to Robby and John, obviously...)
*What is your favourite GGDs lyric?
*What are the best/worst things about being famous?
*Is there anything about the band's history so far you would change?
*Which of your songs carries the most emotional meaning for you?
*If you could give your fans one message, what would it be? ("Buy the damn record..." LMAO)
*Which song is most fun to play?
*Which record is your favourite/least favourite? Why?
*What's the craziest thing a fan has ever done?
*What are you plans for when you retire? (Robby already said he wants to retire to Chameleon West and 'write his manifesto' LOL)

and a few silly ones too...

*If you were a woman for a day, what would you do?
*WTF is a 'Sex Maggot'?
*What's your favourite Disney movie?
*What's your favourite item of clothing?
*If you could be in another band for a day, which band would you pick?

and last of all:

*Robby, will you give me a job at Good Charamel? (Go on, I have qualifications. I can make the coffee and fetch the Pez!)

:hahaha:

My mother says that 'If ya don't ask, ya don't get' �;)

I LOVE Hate This Place, it's such an underated song IMO.

Hi Rougue, I believe the band answered the question once when asked ...Which song is the most fun to play? They answered Slide!  You can kinda feel the excitement  by the way Robby bounces around :rockin:  and John gives out the whistle  :guitarist: Oh and let's not forget the " you sing" shout  :nanner: Man it is awesome live!!!! 8)

Title: Re: 3 questions
Post by RogueUK on Feb 8th, 2005, 6:50pm
Cool that they answered that already!  ;D Yeah, Robby and John do always seem to be having fun when they play that one...then again, when does Robby NOT bounce around? Heh heh.

tkc1989 - Hate This Place is underrated?! I didn't know that...I LOVE it personally. One of my favourite Goo songs I think (that and about 20 others!)

I love the talent that John has for putting all these really intense situations and emotions into such great, heartfelt, poetic lyrics that really connect with anyone who's been through the same thing. It feels so sincere when he sings that one, and the 'Hold on...dream away..." bit where he just lets that voice of his SOAR - is too cool! Very moving too...

ahh, the Oxygen concert.  They actually answered my question, which was "Who would play you in the movie of your life story?"

I remember Mike said Vince Vaughn....sadly I don't remember the other two's answers...and...I've taped over the concert.  :'( Anyone know what their answers were?

Title: Re: 3 questions
Post by RogueUK on Feb 12th, 2005, 4:31pm
I found an answer for this one:

"The craziest thing a fan has done for the Goo Goo Dolls is �when a girl sent us plane tickets to fly out to Hawaii and meet her. What would you do if someone sends you three thousand dollars worth of plane tickets? There has to be something wrong with them,� Takac says, as he laughs about the whole situation.

Whoa, that is crazy! That poor girl wasted all her money too, since the Goos didn't even go!

I think John said Kevin Bacon if I remember properly.  ;)

If I could ask any question, I would ask John if I could have his pants.

Post by Maryofdahood on Feb 13th, 2005, 3:56pm
my questions would probably be along the lines of
"can I kiss you?"
or
"will you marry me?"
or quite possibly
"can I touch your butt?"

haha, that was awesome when that lady got to touch johnny's arse in the Live In Alaska dvd.

sweeeet.
