fuck you, goo.


so I have just a little complaint about stupid band names: why do they exist?

exhibit 1: the goo goo dolls.

the trio picked the current name out of a True Detective ad for a toy called a Goo Goo Doll. "We were young and we were a garage band not trying to get a deal. We had a gig that night and needed a name. It's the best we came up with, and for some reason it stuck. If I had five more minutes, I definitely would have picked a better name" John stated.

well fuck you John. because patience is a virtue.

  1. Jesus that lead singer dude keeps getting prettier and prettier. He's giving Jon Bon Jovi a run for his money in the fancy boy hair category.

  2. And, have you ever noticed how they never show the poor ugly bass player in the videos, even when he's singing the lead vocal? If they do show him, there's always something like a swinging lightbulb so we can't get a proper gander at him. It's like they're ashamed of having a really ugly bass player. Lemmy's ugly and he fucking rules. You gotta own that shit.

  3. I know all about ugly bass players. trust me: the public dont wanna see us.

    but you are perceptively correct: I used to notice that too and wonder to myself "the dude cant be that prolific in the hideous looks, right?"

    wrong.
