Brief Goo Goo Dolls Tour Announced
News • August, 2000 • Billboard.com
The Goo Goo Dolls have announced a seven-date tour kicking off Aug. 28
with an appearance at the Colorado State Fair. As in the past, the band
has invited USA Harvest to collect non-perishable food donations for the
needy at each tour stop.
More than
600,000 pounds of food has been collected by the organization at Goo Goo
Dolls concerts since March 1999. Food is collected by volunteers and
distributed to local soup kitchens, shelters, and other social service
agencies.
The band has been on the road
for nearly two years since releasing the Warner Bros. album "Dizzy Up
The Girl." That set peaked at No. 15 on The Billboard 200, and spawned
the Billboard Hot 100 singles "Slide" (No. 8), "Iris" (No. 9), "Black
Balloon" (No. 16), and most recently "Broadway" (No. 24). The album has
sold more than 3.2 million copies in the U.S., according to SoundScan.
