east-coast tour with Lit

A Sony Music employee passed the band’s demo to regional promotion manager Mike Martinovich, who was impressed by the group’s writing ability and the autobiographical nature of the songs. He contacted talent manager Steve Feinberg, who flew to Annapolis to watch the group perform and later began working with them. Around the same time, WHFS also began playing the demo. As the track became a hit in the area, record labels began showing interest in Good Charlotte. By the end of 1999, the band went on an east-coast tour with Lit . Representatives from several major labels attended the New York City show of the tour.
