The Goo Goo Dolls do a cover of the only good INXS song ever"Don't Change." I like it a lot. This is from when the Goo Goo Dolls were doing the cool Replacements thing and not the thirtysomething acoustic open tuned power ballads on VH-1. What a great, great song. Hell, INXS were a great band until they turned into rock stars. Now the Goo Goo Dolls...you're just wrong, Steve. They always sucked, always will. One of lamest concert moments I ever saw: GGD opened for, I think, the 'Mats, and some kid up front was yelling "you suck, bring on the 'Mats," etc. GGD bassist asks them to turn up the house lights so he can identify said punk, vows he's going to jump off stage and kick his ass as soon as the set ends. He didn't. Dave *** Dave Purcell, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Northern Ky Roots Music: http://w3.one.net/~newport Twangfest: http://www.twangfest.com

Thought it was cool that they kept the split songwriting/singing going with the new one, when you KNOW everyone's told them to let John take sole control of the reins. Chris np: Varnaline, Man of Sin - "No Decision No Disciple" is a fine song. Don't miss them with Sparklehorse, if you get the chance.

Re: Ace Ventura....huh?
Hey there, Dave... Now the Goo Goo Dolls...you're just wrong, Steve. They always sucked, always will. Superstar Carwash is a fine garage rock album - with no lame ballads. And their first self titled one is endearing in a punk kinda way. And a little frigthening if you compare it to their last one, or at list the AOR single from it. Later...

Ace Ventura....huh?
Check this out. We were digging through some shit here at the office and someone found two CDs. One is something lame, but the other is the Ace Ventura soundtrack. Don't laugh! It's actually kinda neat. No, it isn't worth plunking $15 down on, but it *is* worth a listen. Why? Well let me tell you. Why am I talking like this? I don't know! The Reverend Horton Heat does a version of Guadalcanal Diary's "Watusi Rodeo." Holy moly! It's great! Also, Blues Traveler does a version of "Secret Agent Man." Sure they suck, but that's one of my favorite songs and even they couldn't ruin it. The song prevails! (note: the best version of the song EVER done was by the Plugz on the Repo Man soundtrack. "El Hombre Secreto" I think was the name of it. All sung in Spanish) (also note: the song is 2:16 long...the shortest blues traveler song ever???) There's also a reggae version of "Spirits in the Material World" by Pato Banton. Lame. If it were *ME* I would update the song a little by singing it to the theme of Madonna's "Material Girl." THEN and only then would the soundtrack be worth buying at full price! One more thing. The Goo Goo Dolls do a cover of the only good INXS song ever"Don't Change." I like it a lot. This is from when the Goo Goo Dolls were doing the cool Replacements thing and not the thirtysomething acoustic open tuned power ballads on VH-1. Welp, back to work.
