Refugee 7 Report post Posted July 2, 2008 Alt-rockers The Goo Goo Dolls have lined up a handful of dates spread across the summer as they back an upcoming CD/DVD compilation and return to the recording studio. The band kicks off its US summer slate with a July 19 appearance at Cadott, WI's Rock Fest, part of a four-day outdoor festival that also features Stone Temple Pilots, Godsmack and Matchbox Twenty. Later in the month, the group will make an appearance at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway as part of the festivities surrounding the NASCAR Brickyard 400 race. Details on upcoming dates are below. The band announced recently on its website that it had entered the recording studio to record a new album, which would be the follow-up to 2006's "Let Love In," the group's eighth studio set. The Goo Goo Dolls will release a new single, "Real," through iTunes beginning July 7. A clip of the new song is currently streaming at the band's website. In addition to planned new material, the group will release a two-disc CD/DVD set, "Volume Two," on Aug. 5. The set follows last year's "Greatest Hits Volume One: The Singles," and will feature previously unreleased tracks, b-sides, rarities, live performances and music videos. The DVD portion of the package features all 24 of the group's videos, including three No. 1 hits: "Name," "Iris" and "Slide." In addition, the DVD features six live tracks from the group's June 2007 show at Colorado's Red Rocks Amphitheatre, including "Before It's Too Late" from "The Transformers" soundtrack.
