Three decades in and alternative pop-rockers the Goo Goo Dolls show no sign of running out of the arena-designed anthems with the neat choruses that sound best when howled back at them by the audience.
They haven’t run out of stuff to sing about either. They let out their frustrations at being cooped up during the pandemic on the aptly titled Going Crazy.
