Goo Goo Dolls live Review


I have to be honest, I loved seeing this band live!

Last week I was fortunate to see the Goo Goo Dolls in New Jersey with a couple of my friends. The venue was pretty small for such a successful band so it was great to be able to stand so close to the stage and see them really perform.

 The band was incredibly energetic and entertaining. I had not realized John Rzeznik (lead vocalist) was so witty and comical. Between songs he had great banter with both the audience and the rest of the band, and always seemed in-tune to what the crowd was doing.

During the two hour set John Rzeznik mostly took the lead on their songs although Robby Takac sang some including the hit, January Friend. Other songs they sang included Broadway, Acoustic, Sweetest Lie and my personal favorite performance of the night, Iris! 

Ryan Star, a singer from Long Island, New York was the support for the Goo Goo Dolls show. To give him his credit, he did a great job of warming the crowd up for the main act. He sang his hit songs 'Right Now," "Last Train Home," "Breathe" and "Start a Fire,"  and was around after the show to sign autographs.

I had a great night overall and would certainly recommend you go and see them live as they really do put on a great show.
