Hey all. I just back from
the Goo's show here in Phoenix! It totally kicked serious ass! They didn't
look tired at all. Robby was a live-wire!!! And they really looked like
they were enjoying themselves. Anyways, Johnny wore his cowboy hat
and a blank tank with those khaki pants he always wears (the ones with
that white label on the back). I didn't get to meet them (boo hoo)but
they did wave at all of us waiting for them! I also saw Nathan smoking
to answer that question asked not long ago. Also, something was up with
their mikes. It was hard to hear lyrics. And at the end during "2 days"
somebody hit (I think) Johnny's mike and it went out so we missed some
of the lyrics. Robby pointed it out to him and he got on Robby's mike.
Also, no story about Name this time but he did say his little quote about
sticking your head up and
somebody trying to blow it
off. He said something to the effect of, "this song gave me a lot of shit.
Everybody keeps asking me how has the success affected you, how has success
affected you. This is why my nieces and nephews keep asking me if I know
the Backstreet Boys. That's when I give them a dollar and say f**k off.
He also made a comment
about Mark McGraff,
the lead singer of Sugar Ray. he said, "hey about Sugar Ray? That lead
singer is pretty hot, huh? I want to f**k him. (laugh) Just kidding, kidding."
Anyways,
merchandise was the same from the DUTG tour. The shirt with the design
of them in suits with the science looking symbols on the back, the necklace,
stickers. A hat with the symbols. a black shirt that listed all the groups
performing names. Basic stuff. Nothing new.
Fastball,
was surprisingly good. I'm going to get their Cd. Sugar Ray I didn't care
for because I didn't know their stuff was that hard. Also, Fastball performed
for about 45 minutes, as did Sugar Ray.
And several
of us listers will be on MTV!!! Matt Pinfield saw us waiting and did an
interview with us!! Is that like sweet or what?? It's on this MOnday on
News 1515. I'll be taping. Amber did the talking. I'm right behind Matt
with the glasses and showing my Goo pic. (if they don't' cut me out or
something).
Anyways,

Johnny took off his hat so I could see his eyes. They also said they were
going to the Mason jar afterwards, for anyone who wanted to see them. It's
a bar out in Tempe so we didn't go. Don't know how to get there anyways.
