Title: UK News: We have a release date for the albu
Post by LouAndNic on Mar 23^rd, 2006, 11:37am

Hiya guys,

We have just learned some news from the band's record label that we have all been waiting for... UK release dates for not only the album, but a single as well!!! Yay!

According to the current schedule, "Let Love In" will be released in the UK on 24th April (yes, that's right, the day before the US) and their first UK single "Better Days" from the album will be released on 15th May. So, you know what we've all got to do now right? Get requesting!!!!

We've also heard that talks are currently underway for a UK tour - nothing confirmed whatsoever and no information on when / how many etc etc but hey, it's a start! We'll keep you posted...

It seems that "Better Days" are just around the corner...

a VERY excited
L&N

OMG ShanGooFan your so discriminatory. HAHAHA joking. You mean the states AND CANADA! baha, lol. So when the album is released on the 24 for you guys you have to "tell us what the songs sound like" (IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN)

We're with you in travelling anywhere to see them! Reckon London is a pretty safe bet and hopefully one or two more around the UK if we're lucky.

Thank you Shannon - all this excitement is fantastic isn't it? And we all share the reason in common!

One thing that is on my mind right now is that, presuming they come to the UK, would it be during the GGD/Counting Crows tour? I love Counting Crows, but I'd prefer it if my first Goo concert was just them...

And all the bashing of GGD on the Counting Crows board is annoying me, terribly. >:( The people on this board who are disappointed simply make a statement along the lines of 'That disappoints me' and it's over and done with. Now let me quote some messages on the Counting Crows board.

Quote:

I had the misfortune of seeing the Goo Goo Dolls live in concert in 1999, when they blew up with one of their numerous soundalike ballads. They sucked. Sorry. They're lightweights who totally sold out in the name of mainstream success. Remember, they were a "punk" band back in the day, but that didn't work out for them so they started writing Celine Dion-style ballads, made a few bucks, and wandered off to the where-are-they-now file. Irrevelant. Lightweight. Sellouts. At least CCs are only one of thoese 3 things. Can you guess which one?

PS -- Don't get YOUR panties in a bunch just because someone doesn't hold the same opinion as you about the freaking Goo Goo Dolls. (I can barely say their name with a straight face.)

PPS -- (singing) And I don't want the world to see me/Cause I don't think that they'd understand/ And my heart will go ooooooooooon!

Quote:

Wow, after touring with Live and John Mayer, I didn't think CCs could sink any lower. The Goo Goo Dolls? Talk about an irrelevant, washed up, one-hit wonder of a band. Why on earth would CCs want to tour with them? Why do they need to keep doing these "double bill" tours with significantly lesser acts? CCs are easily capable of touring good sized venues -- the Goo Goo Dolls are a club-band at this point with a tiny following comprised mostly of old people who liked them back in the day.

They're simply trying to make facts out of stupid opinions.

:o...... >:( @ those quotes. How can anyone say that about the goo's! I know everyone has their own opinion, and each to their own and all that! But that's stooping abit far to talk about them like that! There's no need for it! If you dislike an artist/group, you can say it in a way that's not so nasty.
