Good book.
Goo Goo DOlls: Dizzy Up the Girl, is a good book, yet it lacks one thing. I have observed how Jonny Rzeznik plays his songs and the way the book gives you isn't totally correct, however the songs do sound very accurate. And if you are like me, and don't have a band, or 3 to 5 guitarists you wont be able to play some of the songs such as black balloon completely. Atleast I couldn't. Over all I gave this book 4 stars and i might add its a awesome book for beginners or experts who want to just learn some goo goo dolls!

Excellent book!
Dizzy Up The Girl has very accurate transcriptions of the music from the CD. The downside is that some of the songs, especially the more popular ones, are in alternate tunings, but you can handle that. Just make sure you have extra strings in case you break some. Tuning your B-string up to a D# for Slide does a number on it.

excellent
This book is perfect. It's not hard to learn at all. It's also written in tab form and in staff form. Easy to read, easy to play, this book is perfect for new players and for advanced players. As a GGD fan, this all sounds exactly like the real thing

GREAT BOOK
Great book, Has everything from easy to later intermediate songs. Easy: Dizzy Iris Amigone Acoustic #3 Full Forever Intermediate (Early): January Friend Black Balloon Bullet Proof Extra Pale Hate this Place Intermediate: Slide All Eyes on Me Intermediate (Advanced): Broadway Only hassle is the retuning for Johnny's songs. Robby are all drop D or standard. You'll need to replace your strings or use capos for Johnny's songs.

Rock Again...
This was a decent book. I love the Goos, but you have to re-tune to play each song. Overall, it's a great book.

GREAT Goo Goo Dolls book!!!
Prefect transcriptions of every song, and details I couldn't even hear on the CD until I read they were there in the book. The only downside is that the songs really aren't that hard to play, but I guess that doesn't mean the book did bad, that means the the Goo Goo Dolls don't play terribly hard stuff. But, it's a great book if you want to learn Goo Goo Dolls songs.
