Goo Goo Dolls on "Randi's Cat's Pajamas" Buffalo, NY Local TV 1987 (1st TV Appearance)

[@TheReubenKincaid]

"Hope to see you guys on the major charts someday" Yup, in about 10 years, and it's gonna be huge. These guys are awesome for never giving up. They get criticized sometimes because the style changed...but they earned it.

[@mjstockinger]

Nice, rare footage of Buffalo's favorite sons. Thanks for sharing.

[@PumpkinMozie]

“Did your mother have a little trouble with the washing machine?” she asks the guy who was orphaned as a teenager. Awkward

[@baileyb4470]

I KNOW as soon as she asked that I was like what's Johnny gonna do? that's more awkward because i don't think SHE knew that he was an orphan...but we all do...

[@bprathe3205]

She was disgusting. Too worried about being cool.

[@bprathe3205]

@@baileyb4470 it’s her job to know. She never did another interview after that. FIRED!

Johnny's hair. I can't even LMAO.

[@Nirvanaforeverm5x]

Johnny Has That Glam Metal Look But They Are Playing Punk Rock lol

[@fwysrecords]

Robby use to do most of the singing because Johnny was shy.

[@crackerjackrappr]

fwysrecords Good thing they switched. Crazy to think what would have happened if they didn't. They were getting airtime with robby but probably wouldn't have lasted long. I still love some of the songs he sings but wouldn't be able to continuously listen to a full album of him. Used to work his MIA festival in buffalo. Very cool dude. Very genuine.

[@dianabeurman9937]

awsome video of the guys so young! Robbie was adorable! Johnny was too!

[@agirlnamedgoo]

oh my god- Johnny’s hair really was something!!

[@MrFraternizer]

I had no idea this band was so old!. Johnny Resznick was the inspiration for my weird guitar tuning

These guys would have been huge but the record company refuse to tell us their "Name"

Doesn't John kinda sound like Lars Ulrich without the accent?

HOPEFULLY WE'LL BE SEEING YA ON THE MAJOR CHARTS SOME DAY AND UH...HOPEFULLY ON THE MUSIC PROGRAMS AND UH...MAYBE YOU'LL START WRITING CHART TOPPING LOVE SONGS FOR 30 YEAR OLD WOMEN THAT BASH YOU OVER THE HEAD EVERY TIME YOU ENTER A SUPERMARKET OR DEPARTMENT STORE OR FURNITURE STORE OR... And for everybody complaining about this dumb broad's joke about John's mom, remember that they were a nobody local punk band who had just released their first album. There's no way she'd have known that John didn't have parents, and it would have been awkward as fuck if he had suddenly looked up and said "Actually..."

[@helloskinny510]

Hahaha if he corrected her, it would be one of the most memorable awkward moments on live TV

One should think to research backgrounds of the people you interview beforehand so as not to "stick foot in mouth"! SMH

[@crackerjackrappr]

Shana G she hadn't even listened to the album yet. Fortunately for her they weren't big and were just stoner kids so they didn't give 2 shits. they were just messing around. Beautiful. Aside from the mom joke.
