Goo Goo Dolls Extend Dates for Summer Tour

The in-progress US outing of the Goo Goo Dolls has been extended, as their highly anticipated new album “Something For The Rest of Us” is set to be released.

The road trip for the alt-rockers continues on June 9 in Austin, which will be followed by an additional 31 visits coast to coast. The trek will wrap up in Los Angeles on August 29.

Tickets for most of the shows can be purchased via Ticketmaster.

“Something For The Rest of Us,” the ninth studio album from the Goo Goo Dolls, will be released on August 31 by Warner Brothers. Tim Palmer (U2, David Bowie) and Butch Vig (Nirvana, Green Day) are the producers. The set is the first new material collection from the band since “Let Love In” released in 2006.

In a recent press release, Johnny Rzeznik, guitarist/frontman said I wanted to have some of the album’s material address disillusionment in this difficult period of time that we are living in. I wanted our emotional uncertainty that is part of these hard times to be given a voice.

“Home,” the lead single from the album, is playing currently on mainstream radio stations across the nation. It can also be purchased via iTunes.
