John Rzeznik of the Goo Goo Dolls, telling the Autograzzi - "I'm Gonna Sign until My Fucking Signature is Worthless"
In recent months I have been focusing on celebrity event shooting, but when I was a "Fan Paparazzi" I used to have to wait until the exits at an event or After Party to photograph my subjects, sometimes I miss doing this, hanging with my "fan" friends, a few of my paparazzi friends, this is a great time to really talk about the war stories of the celebrity business. Last week I schedule my jaunt to NYC purposely so I could hang out with a few of my "photo with" and "autograzzi" friends. Since I left the business has grown tremendously, with at least two dozen new faces out in the field. Every year the "Songwriters Hall of Fame" is held at the Marriott Marquis. Most of the people in this picture are there for 'graphs or "photos with". The peps to the left are checking out who is coming down the escalators and to leave. Last Thursday one of the honorees was John Rzeznik from the Goo Goo Dolls
As John Rzeznik exited the hotel a feeding frenzy of sorts took over with the autograzzi jostling each other to get his signature on a CD, a guitar pick guard, a photo etc., while the photo with people try and get a shot "with"
here are some of the folks getting the guitar guards signed
Since I left, I see this family has started a business, here's a mom digging guitar guards out of a bag, at 1AM last Thursday, to give to her hmm what 10 year old to get signed (Dad's getting things signed too.)
This is about the time that John Rzeznik gleefully states, give them to me, "I am going to sign every fucking one so none of you bastards make a dime off of me."

He signed, and signed and signed for a good 15 minutes, until finally he broke free from the frenzied crowd. (did you ever see "Suddenly Last Summer", well in the last scene where Sebastian gets devoured by the boys cash grabbing boys, this is what this scenario reminds me. It was disgusting, and shocking to see. (I guess both obtaining 'graphs and doing paparazzi work isn't very pretty as we try and satisfy the demand for the paying public)

and no worse for the wear John Rzeznik and his beautiful girlfriend were off
Here's a link to the speech he gave that night at the "Songwriters Hall of Fame"

It is nice that you posted this story, but I didn't get your point on quoting John's often playful and humorous sarcasm. People who do not know this about him may get the wrong impression of him, when the fact that even when he knew what the deal is, he signed for a whole 15 minutes anyway. That only confirms the amazing man he really is. His sarcasm and use of the "f" word on ocassion do not define him. He’s a man of charity, great strength and vision, yet witty, and humble with a great sense of humor (not for everybody). We love him just the way he is and would not change a thing about him. Thanks for the story!
LOL... John certainly is all of those things, but anyone who knows John also knows that he appreciates those seeking autographs because they are fans... not for profit. He works hard for his money. Some jackass who takes advantage of his john hancock.. that's hardly something he enjoys. He's a regular Joe. And his use of the F word is hardly occasional! LMAO!
Thanks for the story... amusing.
Now Chrissy did you have to tell this dude the truth about John's frequent use of the "F" word? hahaha!
I use the "F" word to raise awareness of worthy causes so PAP if you need any more headlines on the "F" word stop by my blog. I'm warning you, John's a saint in comparison.

OK just reading the comments. It wasn't about John, it was about the frenzied autograzzi who wouldn't leave John alone. John was smart by saying I am going to sign all your items, which basically devalues his signature. I admire him for doing it. Sorry that didn't come across that way. guess you had to be there.
I love the goo goo dolls, saw them some years ago. John likes to talk to the audience and tell stories. He does say f**k while talking, alot. He was very funny. It didn't bother me one bit. It's rock n roll and I like it.
Good evening! interestingly you
