O.A.R. frontman Marc Roberge further added:
“After working on separate albums in the same studio all last year, John and I realized pretty quickly how much fun we’d have on tour together. We’re all band guys, love being musicians, and started planning a special night that all our fans would enjoy.”

More about Goo Goo Dolls’ recent album, Chaos in Bloom
Chaos in Bloom is the 13th studio album by Goo Goo Dolls, which was released earlier in August this year via Warner Records. The album includes 10 tracks with the lead single, Yeah I Like You, which was produced by vocalists John Rzeznik and Robby Takac.
Atwood magazine cited Takac describing the video creation process as being like “make-believe or playtime.” He described the video as a fun, carefree intro to a lineup of slow-building introspections.
