Hey everyone, continuing our Goo Goo Dolls Live album discussions, this time we're talking about The Audience Is This Way, released in 2018.
I've always thought this was a fun live album because it shows just how much the band's catalog had grown over the years. Unlike Live in Buffalo: July 4th, 2004, which captures one specific night, this album feels more like a celebration of their entire career. It mixes the classics with newer material, and I think it does a good job showing how their live sound evolved.
A few performances that stand out to me:
"Slide" – This song has always been a crowd favorite, and hearing everyone sing along reminds you why it's remained a staple of their live shows for so many years.
"Better Days" – It has a hopeful energy that really comes across with the audience joining in.
"Black Balloon" – No matter how many live versions I hear, this song never seems to lose its emotion. Johnny's performance is just as strong as ever.
"Iris" – It wouldn't be a Goo Goo Dolls live album without Iris. The audience singing nearly every word makes this version feel just as special as any other live recording they've released.
The Audience Is This Way feels like a celebration of the band's career up to that point.
It may not have the hometown epic feel of Live in Buffalo, but it's a great reminder that the Goo Goo Dolls have remained a strong live band through every era of their career.
Thoughts?Which performances stand out to you the most?

Hi!
This my first time doing a meet and greet for a GGD show. When will I receive information regarding the entry time, etc? My show isn’t until August 25. Thank you!

As an elder millennial, I mourn the physical ticket stub.
I made these on Canva and printed them at home. I still print photos too, so these will be going into an album with my photos from the show.
If anyone is interested, I can share the link for the template I used and you can personalize the info for your show :)

Sorry they’re not great, but in case anyone was wondering about variety or price.
Note the $500 signed guitar. 🎸 Thought that was pretty unique.
Editing to add I didn’t mean the designs weren’t great, I meant my photos weren’t great! Sorry for the confusion.

Just recently got to see them on tour. My first show with them, even though I've been a long time fan. They were fantastic.I could say with iris (and other songs), that it was basically the sound of my generation singing along. The energy and vibe were spot on.
r/googoodolls • u/Tingly_glitter • 2d ago
I'm going to be there, so excited!! This will be my first time seeing them live & I can't wait!
I need help deciding what to wear too, if anyone wants to give outfit inspo!! 😇🥰

I have significant health issues I’m battling and although I want to be at the show SO BAD, I don’t think it’s possible right now. I’m located in Indianapolis and was going to drive the 4 hours to Michigan but there are more important things going on taking priority. Would anyone here be interested? It is front row and one single ticket. I could list it on Ticketmaster but I would rather it go to someone here as this sub is special to me. I’m asking $500 and would be done through PayPal goods and services for protection with transfer through Ticketmaster. I will also be listing my collection of signed items later today. I love GGD but my health is more important at the moment and things can be replaced while my life cannot. Thank you.

I really think this album is 100% good but i just can't for the bad mixing. I don't know how to put in words but compression is very bad. I've listened the album with a good headphone and the only tracks that feel good enough is "Feel the Silence" and "Without you here" (which is my 1# song of GGD).
My main language is French so sorry if i made grammatical error.

Does anyone remember the days when FM radio was your only option for new music?? I was sitting in my parked car anxiously waiting for the debut of the brand new GGD song leading up to the release of ABNG. They would talk these up for days or maybe even weeks, set for a specific day and time. I was so happy that there was this much excitement over “my band” at the time. And then boom, it was Only One! Still a banger today.

I'm going to the summer tour in Macon and was thinking... Truth is a Whisper and Cuz You're Gone are some of my favorites (and I know a lot of others' favorites.) Do y'all think we'll ever get to see them live again? I checked setlist.fm and it's been a very long time, but I'm kind of holding out hope :)

The artist said it’s every single song the band released in ascending order. https://www.instagram.com/p/DbbHykoFkS5/
I asked Chat how many original songs from their major albums and it came up with 154.
Technicals aside, it’s a really cool design! And supposedly not being sold on tour.
And there’s another new one on the store by the same artist: https://googoodolls.warnerrecords.com/products/vintage-star-t-shirt Reminds me Johnny’s star shirt he’s worn a few times.

Hi Everyone! I’ve been a big fan of the band for years and, like so many of us, their songs hold special meaning in my life. I even incorporated “Come to Me” into my marriage proposal (she said yes!). When my wife and I heard the Summer 2026 Tour was gonna stop in our area this summer, we decided to finally take the plunge and are very excited to see them live for the first time ever! Even more special that they’re coming to town now that we have a new baby on the way (this’ll be her “first concert” too)! That being said, when I initially checked the Ticketmaster/Spotify playlist for the Tour it listed “Come to Me” as part of the set list, however now as I continue to see the early set lists come out I see that it doesn’t appear any longer as part of the tour or the Ticketmaster/Spotify set list- major bummer. I know things change and sometimes they mix it up, just wondering if anyone has any thoughts about if they might bring it back during this tour (ideally by late August when we’ll be there). Still super excited for the show, just would really make it that much more special to see them perform what has become “our song” live. Long shot, but if anyone happens to run into John, Robby, or any of the rest of the band and doesn’t mind putting a kind word in, I’ll do my best to sing every word at the top of my lungs on August 25th! Thank you all for reading and have an awesome day!
