It's so annoying going to shows now and seeing everyone with their phone out, worried about recording what they are seeing, all while not realizing they were born with a built in recording device. Their own brain/mind/memory. And while focused on recording with their phone, they don't realize that memory is in their phone, not their own mind.
@@rsxfan I saw them live, front row in Dallas in 2018. I only recorded 2 short snippets of mine and my mom's two favorite songs as a keepsake and then I put it away and really enjoyed the rest of the show. I was so happy and in the moment that I literally cried. It was one of the best days.
They were told that it was to dangerous to play and their manager told them not to!!! They did not want to let their fans down on the 4Th of July!!! I was in the second row, possibly third for this!!! I started crying as they sang!!! Fun fact Robbie Tackak the bassist wore something on his feet, thank god because he hates shoes! My home town band!!!
I was at this concert July 4th,2004. With the GOO GOO DOLLS being from the Buffalo NY area made it that much more special. This concert was at the Buffalo waterfront park. They have a concert series during the summer every year with bands from various genres.
"You have no idea how much we love you" A lot of acts I would figure that would be a throwaway line. But with it being a home crowd.... I think he means it. And that singing it back at them at 8:00...... man if you're a performer, thats what you live for. They will never ever ever forget it, for the rest of their days. Beautiful.
Info. It was a concert in their hometown of Buffalo NY where the bassist is from. For this performance to be in front of the Fans that were there with them from the beginning before Anyone had ever heard of The Goo Goo Dolls standing on the Legs Of Their Original Supporters just makes it That Much More Special!!
Fantastic reaction of an amazing song. I can't imagine how they performed so well in the rain. Crazy good. Would love to see your reaction to Hozier's 'Cherry Wine' or 'Work Song'.
Honest reaction man, he lost raspy voice because of smoke and for a while he was not able to hit the high notes but now he's voice it's stronger than ever 💪🏼
In short, playing an electric guitar in the rain carries a big risk of components short circuiting so is rather dangerous. Moreso than that though, the instruments themselves will be ruined after this, both because of damage to electrical components but also the warping of the wood. You'll see at the end of the video John Rzeznik lays the guitar down on the stage and walks off. He knows that guitar is shot and he's never playing it again. They went off stage for a bit during this concert due to safety concerns and were advised to call the concert off but decided to come back out. This was a free concert for a hometown crowd and the band decided they weren't letting them down by not finishing.
Prince played the halftime Super Bowl show in the rain using 3 different electric guitars. The band said that when they were done playing their instruments died. Best Super Bowl performance ever. You can get electrocuted like someone else said.
I hate these fake " first time listening". This song was ubiquitous and played for a long time. Anyone who listens to music will have heard this song, especially for a white person.
