Goo Goo Dolls are an indie and alternative band, who formed in 1986. They are perhaps most famous for their international hit Iris, featured on the soundtrack to the 1998 film City of Angels. Currently, the band is a trio of three men:
Johnny Rzeznik - Vocals, guitar (Founding member)
Robby Takac - Vocals, bass (Founding member)
Mike Malinin - Drums (Hired in 1995, made official member in 1998)
George Tutuska, drummer from 1986 to New Year's Eve 1994. He was dismissed and was replaced by Malinin. George had said that he had not received any royalty checks from the albums he had played on, providing a reason as to why he is no longer part of the band.
Lance Diamond a Buffalo, New York entertainer who has played with GGD live on many occasions, as well as recording with them on the tracks Down On The Corner, Never Take The Place of your Man, My Girl, Do You Believe, and Bitch.
Nathan December played as a touring guitarist for the Dizzy Up the Girl album tour.
