If this is the same one from a few years back, I liked his interpretation of it. It sounded very nice.

I love the unique guitar arrangement he did with this. Howie's a genius on the guitar...you can't really tell from his newest album. He's really gone into the commercial vein, but pick up his older album Australia and you'll see what i mean. I'm pretty sure this version of Slide is live, by the way.

NOOOOOO!i'm sorry to those who liked it but,i'm sorry that didn't even sound ok to me.no one can cover a goo song and do a good job i think,Gin Blossoms is about the one and only band who could ever cover Goo and do it good.Considering the fact that that guy kinda sounds like Johnny.the guitra playing was pretty good though,i'll give himt hat much but the vocals.....eek i'm not so sure.

oh and by the way didnt the goo goo dolls/gin blossoms have an altercation playing at a show together. I could be wrong but i remember something about this but cant remember exactly what?
