See You in Purgatory, John...
The concert last night was great. The Julie-Ryan Uber-Being drove me a little up the wall with their gross couple-y-ness, but it was well worth it. Most of the old favorites had been re-worked, and it was a much different experience than listening to a CD. Also featured seizure-worthy lighting design and great segues.
As we were walking in to the Coronado Theatre, we saw two men with very gross, graphic signs. They were protesting abortion. When asked why they were standing in front of a theatre and not a clinic, they answered, "We were there yesterday, but nothing's going on there right now. This is where all the people are." And I guess things got a lot more heated after we got inside the building.
John Rzeznik greeted us thusly: "Hi, Fornicators! Sinners! Homosexuals! Women!" And then proceeded to tell us that he enjoyed watching through the windows as the concert-goers told the protestors to leave. He said, "That guy is going to be so surprised when he and I run into each other in Purgatory. He'll be like, 'What're you in for?' and I'll say, 'I drank a lot and cheated on my girlfriend... What're you in for?'
"...and he'll say, 'I stood in front of a Goo Goo Dolls concert and told people they were going to Hell.'"
