hey guys if there was one bright spot to working on earth's version of hell (walmart) htis weekend it was this morning :) they started showing the promo's for the goo's soundcheck. i think it said they were showing it tomorrow @ 7pm b ut it might be the 28th. it brightened up my otherwise crappy easter weekend.

maybe some shoppers can answer this for me? why does it no matter which holiday it is everyone wait till the 11th hour to buy stuff?

I completely understand your question about people waiting until the last minute.  In high school I worked as a florist in the bggest grocery store and always had to work super late on holidays and the closer it was to that holiday's dinner time, the more people there were in the store.

And, to keep this on topic, I think the original press release said the Goo's soundcheck thingy would be available 4/25

No, I guess I am a thief. There is only one, and it is right near where the TV that plays the clips are with the new CD releases.

I'm gonna try to swipe that black sign that just has the text goo goo dolls 4/25 from the upcoming releases board as well.

I used to work at a Foley's in Texas, and over a weekend they have a tax free weekend...those days really suck because people really like to wait until the place is about to close and they have a crap load of stuff and there would be like 15 or 20 people in line each with a crap load of stuff...it was frustrating to me.

I have yet to see anything at my walmarts concerning the release of Let Love In...kind of a bummer though.  I pre-ordered my copy though but I have to go out and buy my niece a copy on that day, which will be fun.
