Jetsfan80 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Gonna see him in Greensboro, NC on Sunday. I know, I know, my musical taste sucks blah blah blah. But there's some of you out there who know that's gonna be a solid show. He's the man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeC36 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I "saw" him at his concert in Central Park. Want to see him again though. I already have my tickets for the Taste of Country music festival in upstate NY in June. Tim McGraw and Keith Urban are the headliners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RutgersJetFan Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Never been a fan of arena country, but I must say, Brooks is a cool dude and I've always respected his values. If only all celebrities could handle that level of fame with the class he has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RutgersJetFan Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 LeBron James has handled it well. I think Brooks may actually be a bigger star. Guy outsold The Beatles if I'm not mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His Chris Gaines experiment. http://youtu.be/H7uXAEe-ltk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to clarify the above post, I love him and have all his albums, but he just lost his mind right before "retirement" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His Chris Gaines experiment. http://youtu.be/H7uXAEe-ltk Maybe, but I think when you reach that level of success and fame and you want to do something different, it's probably pretty maddening to try. Think about all the solo artists in history who reached his level. You get ones like Elton John who can keep it together, but you also get Elvis, Michael Jackson, Madonna..etc. Some of these people just lose it. Probably a credit to Brooks that the worst it got was going schizo for a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His Chris Gaines experiment. http://youtu.be/H7uXAEe-ltk Man, I totally forgot about that. I remember it being quite the head-scratcher at the time. I looked up the sales just for the hell of it; that album went double platinum and was considered a massive disappointment. Nowadays it's crazy to think an album could sell two million and be a failure. Just goes to show how batsh*t popular Garth was in the 90s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kleckineau Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Brooks is pure vanilla for me but if you like it have a blast. For country? Give me Vince Gill or James Burton, two masters on the telecasters. Saw both those guys a few times and they leave you amazed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rillo Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 DIdn't know he was still doing music. After he changed his 'identity' I thought he was done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeC36 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 DIdn't know he was still doing music. After he changed his 'identity' I thought he was done. He retired for like 12 years to be with his kids. Then he returned with a show in Vegas in like 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
