Goo Goo Dolls on gaining new, younger fans 25 Years after Dizzy Up the Girl

Geoff Bennett:

The band the Goo Goo Dolls is on tour again, playing favorites and some new songs, all while celebrating the 25th anniversary of their breakthrough album, "Dizzy Up the Girl."

I spoke with the lead band members about innovating while preserving their classic sound for our arts and culture series, Canvas.

"Iris," the enduring power ballad off the Goo Goo Dolls 1998 album, "Dizzy Up the Girl." The song skyrocketed the band to fame. The album sold over four million copies and produced three additional top 40 hits.

Now, 25 years later the band's lead singer and guitar player, Johnny Rzeznik, and bass guitar player, Robby Takac, are still performing to sold-out crowds.

It's the 25th anniversary of "Dizzy Up the Girl." How does that strike you?
