This song always gives me goosebumps every time I hear him say can you turn my guitar on!!!!! Then the crowd goes crazy when they figure out what song it is.

[@chynellechapman4646]

There isn’t a single song on this earth ever that gets to me the way this one does!!!!! When I went to the concert I was seriously like in a dream!!!! This song will always be everything to me. It will never not give me goosebumps and butterflies

[@renaissancemen1]

Some music is just awesome. It can transport you back to a time or a place or a feeling. Good or bad. This takes me back to my college days. Having good times.

[@cangrejoarbol3990]

this is a defining song of the 90's. When he says I want you all to take this home it gives me chills. "I just want you to know who I am".

I was there that night! I'm a Buffalo girl born and raised. One thing that is so special is the relationship Buffalo has with our Goo Goo Dolls. It was one amazing jam session. Remember we NEVER miss a Bills game because of weather. This was easy! Magical night captured on film ❤️

what a boomer thing to say about cellphones. People use them to capture the moment so they can look back on it

Bitch cellphones mostly ruined concerts nowadays,like ppl are less cooperative,not actually appreciating the music and just mostly filming it just to say they were there.

[@goat2558]

This video gives me a whole new appreciation of the band, who really aren't one of my favorites, and their fans. To perform in a downpour like that is a real rarity and standing out in it to listen is perhaps even rarer. When he turns the camera to face the crowd shows he understands just how important the fans are. Really a moving performance thanks for posting it. Just noticed on the playlist besides my comment is CCR have you ever seen the rain How appropriate

I could listen to you guys over and over. This song helped me heel too when I lost my first child but not only that.

To this day this band remains one of my favorite bands of all time. The positive messages they send with their music all without cursing or using gimics to sell tickets is the real underlying gem here. This performance was absolutely amazing at the end when everyone was singing just as loud as John on the mic. Sends shivers up my spine :p

[@DonChillum]

I sincerly believe this is the greatest live performance in history. It all just syncs up so perfectly. It feels like for the brief moment of this particular song, on that particular evening, god just came down and conducted the greastest moment of live music ever seen. It's not the amount of people in the audience, nor the meaning of the song itself, nor the band. Just this exact moment in history, regarding the circumstances, was a taste of heaven.
