Any No Doubt fans?

[Speedway]

Have we any No Doubt fans on the board?
There is definitely a new album coming out in 2007 after Gwen is done with her second solo album, but I'm more excited about the tour rumours. Which... have yet to have been confirmed. Keeping the faith?
Favourite songs/albums?

I have no doubt that you will find some fans here.

Wacka wacka! Thank you folks, I'm here all week.

Re: Any No Doubt fans?

I think my favorite stuff came from Tragic Kingdom. I love "Spiderwebs" - it's got good rhythm and it's upbeat.

Here's something interesting for you: I went to High School with Tony Kanal. He sat next to me in Spanish Class during the 1985-1985 School year at Anaheim High School.

Can't say he'd remember me by name, but he might remember that 6th Period Spanish Class with Mr. Wengert. Here's a Disney twist to it: In December 1985, the whole class went outside to watch the 1 million balloons be launched from Disneyland - and the 200 thousand from the Disneyland Hotel - we could see it from outside out class and many of our friends in ASB were there blowing up balloons with Helium tanks.

So back to No Doubt - yes, I am a fan. I enjoy their 'stuff'.

Re: Any No Doubt fans?

Yeah - big time No Doubter here. As nerdy as it is, I used to run a No Doubt fan site back in the day... its how I taught myself HTML and some Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro (when that program was still being used)

Return of Saturn is my favorite album, but I love all of them in different ways...

Re: Any No Doubt fans?

I think my favorite band is No Doubt. :yea: I got to see them once in concert when they were doing their greatest hits tour two years ago. They put on an awesome show. Definetly can't wait for them to come out with a new album. There are many many songs that I like from them, but probably my top 5 would be:
1. Tragic Kingdom
2. Simple Kind of Life
3. Just a Girl
4. Rock Steady
5. Ex-Girlfriend

Re: Any No Doubt fans?

I got into No Doubt thru their rock-heavy stuff like Hella Good etc, but as I've heard more and more of their songs I pretty much listen to them for their reggae and ska influenced songs. I love it.
My top five songs are;
1. Sunday Morning
2. Underneath It All
3. Just A Girl
4. Excuse Me Mr.
5. Tragic Kingdom

I'd love to see them live...

Sweet news thanks for the info!

Re: Any No Doubt fans?

I'm a huge No Doubt fan. Seen them live at:
-Gorge Ampitheater (with Weezer opening)
-The Paramount (x2) where I met everyone but Gwen
-Key Arena
-Memorial Stadium

Saw Gwen for her solo tour this last Fall, got to go backstage and meet her, I posted that pic on here a while back. It was amazing.

My favorite song is "Sunday Morning" and I'm glad they got back into the studio at the beginning of the summer, lets hope Gwen can find some time in her schedule to be a full part of it now that the baby is born.

If they tour I'm there, never seen a better show. Gwen controls audiences.

Really, now?

Re: Any No Doubt fans?

Assuming you meant "how" I'll respond to that, if not forget this post and I'll try again later.


Gwen controls the audience because of her stage presence. She is a dynamic force up there, her energy is contagious and the audience just gets wrapped up in the moment and even the less die-hard fans can find themselves waving their arms in the air side to side with everyone else.

She takes full control of the stage and by the end of any show she has an audience eating out of her hand. It's amazing to watch the chemistry the band has together, so clearly are they long time friends with histories. They make the music come alive on stage, truly what any good performer should be doing at a live show. How many times have you gone to a concert and the band just stands there performing? I've had it happen a lot, some people make amazing music, but they aren't great performers.

With No Doubt you get the best of both worlds. Its rare these days to have a band that puts on the show and not back-up dancers or crazy lights and fireworks, No Doubt in all the shows I've seen them at really could be up there on a blank stage and still make the show amazing.

Re: Any No Doubt fans?

oh ya, big no doubt fan. i go see all of there concerts. when gwen was on tour, i saw her 3 times. i even drove overnight from san jose to hollywood to be in the teen choice award shoot she had. i love the energy they give out when they perform. they are my fav. band ever!

Re: Any No Doubt fans?

I LOOOOVE No Doubt. I liked Gwen's album but I didn't like it near as much as the No Doubt albums. Something was just missing. . I hope the rumors are true!! I could definately use a new fix of ND!! My favorite album is still Tragic Kingdom just simply because how great EVERY song was. I would have to say my favorite song of all time though is either Simple Life or Bathwater. Although I still listen to Just a Girl when my girls and I are going out! Which doesn't happen nearly as much these days.

Re: Any No Doubt fans?

I am a fan of the band.

My friend Joe won us tickets a few years back to see No Doubt perform on KROQs "Breakfast with Kevin and Bean". They show was held at Disneylands Fantasyland Theater. We got to be in the park at like 5 in the morning. There was maybe 500 people there. The theater wasnt even full. They even let us stay all day (and park hop no less)! It was pretty much one of the coolest things ever.

That was when they got the key to Anaheim wasn't it? I saw that on the Rock Steady tour that I have on DVD. I'll admit after I read this thread yesterday I decided to pull out my ND cd's and I listened to my favorites on my way to and from school.

Happy I could help. On No Doubt's site, it says they played at Disneyland five times in a week in 1995 - was wondering if anyone knew what that was to do with? They can't have been that mega-famous in 1995... maybe they were guest stars at Tomorrowland Terrace!?

They played at Grad Nite I believe in that year before their career's took off. But Grad Nite is only one night a week, at least it is now. Maybe not back in '95.
