Product Description
Album Description
2008 two disc (CD + PAL/Region 0 DVD) pressing of this concert performance from the American Alt-Rock superstars. Live in Buffalo chronicles The Goo Goo Dolls' hometown concert on Independence Day, 2004. Famously a torrential downpour descended upon Buffalo, and the group played the final third of the concert - which featured the big hits 'Iris' and 'Give A Little Bit' among other Goo Goo anthems - totally drenched. Features this incredible show in both sight (DVD) and sound (CD) formats. WEA.

Great Concerts sometimes aren't perfect......,
By A Customer
This review is from: Live in Buffalo (CD+ DVD) (Audio CD)
Wow...this is the first review I'm doing on Amazon and I have to say that this concert is great. It is great to see a band that just pushes ahead despite the rain and really puts on a great concert!! This thing ROCKS in the truest sense.

Great CD/DVD,
By A Customer
This review is from: Live in Buffalo (CD+ DVD) (Audio CD)
I was disapointed i missed the concert - but this DVD is the closest thing to being there, nice and long, they did not skimp out on anything!I'd reccomend this cd/dvd combo - The well written tunes just keep on sounding better and better every time they play them. The DVD is a true reflection of what the goo goo dolls stand for - most other bands would pack up and hop in the limos if it started raining like that.

You Wont Be Dissapointed,
By LA Goo Fan - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Live in Buffalo (CD+ DVD) (Audio CD)
For those of you who like the Goo Goo Dolls- and live concert DVDs you wont be dissapointed. If you have HDTV-and in particular a large screen- run and get this. Most of the other reviews failed to point out this was specially filmed in HDTV.The surprise of thid DVD is the rain- I mean it poured on the 4th of July in Buffalo and they didnt stop the concert or dissapoint the thousands that came to see the band. The fact that Buffalo is home and their families and friends were all there probably propelled them to continue. Most bands doing a promo-4th of July gig would have bailed. Its actually funny to watch the band smiling and laughing during "Slide" - its raining so hard it seems ludicrous to continue. They probably threw out at least 10 guitars. With the high def cameras the rain has an almost MTV video style look to it- but its not staged-its real. Final note- the "backdrop" to the concert is one of the most incredible art-deco buildings standing- Buffalos City Hall. The lighting of the building and the ornate columns and sculpture is pretty spectacular. The Goo Goo Dolls are a pretty class act- to not dissapoint their fans and to play the entire show out. They love their roots and it shows. By the way- the sound is FINE. Its a concert video-the crowd etc is not distracting -in fact Im gonna say after watching it a couple times you feel apart of it. 21 of 23 people found the following review helpful

"Greatest Hits Live", and well done at that,
By Paul Allaer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Live in Buffalo (CD+ DVD) (Audio CD)
15 years into the Goo's career, the band has resisted releasing a proper "greatest hits" album. 2001's "Ego, Opinion, Arts & Commerce" compilation was a mixed bag of some (but not all) hits, early songs and obscurities.Now comes "Live in Buffalo" (20 tracks, 77 min.), which for all practical purposes is a "greatest hits live" collection. All the classics are here, from "Name" (their biggest hit, as unreprestative as it is of their overall sound), to "Black Balloon", "Slide", "Broadway" and of course "Iris". While of course Rzeznik is the prime writer behind the Goo's, I'm glad that Takac gets a few tracks, including the excellent "January Friend", "Smash" and "Tucked Away", all of them all-out rockers, reminiscent of the early Goo days. While near impossible to detect from the CD audio quality, the accompanying DVD shows that a torrential down-pour almost brought the show to a halt close to the end of the show. So the better for the band to soldier on! I've been a fan of the Goo's since the early days, and unlike some fans, do not begrudge at all the mainstraim succes the Goo's have obtained, straying from the early day "punk-rock" sound. Until we get a proper "greatest hits" CD, this is as good as it gets, and well done at that. 8 of 8 people found the following review helpful

Incredible,
By John Neary - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Live in Buffalo (CD+ DVD) (Audio CD)
This album shows the incredible outgoing talent Goo Goo Dolls have been expressing over the past years.. You get a taste of their energy on stage, and their emotion with John's beautiful acoustic guitar playing.. You also get a taste of John's abilities on the electric guitar, his solos are simply amazing.. This shows most of their hits over the past years in a raw pure form, untouched through the studio editing, and at a level of unbelievable skill which stands out and never leaves your memory.. definately worth the buy.. and the listen.. You WON'T be disapointed..
