Rumors Persist of Garth Brooks Concerts at the Encore Wynn Theater Las Vegas
Possible 16-Week Engagement May Begin in October 2009
Garth Brooks is one of the biggest musical acts in the history of the world and ever since his retirement a few years back his fans have grown restless. They love Garth Brooks and he loves them right back, maybe even a little more.
A recent blog post implied that a writer named Norm Clarke of the Las Vegas Review Journal has suggested that Garth Brooks may be doing his own Vegas show that will start in October. It is certainly possible that a Las Vegas newspaper would have sources that are reliable.
Now today TheInsider.com posted a report that suggested that Garth is finalizing plans to appear at the Encore Theater in Las Vegas for a 16-week run beginning October of this year.
There is no doubt in anyone's mind that Garth Brooks could and would sell out every single seat in every concert of this 16-week run in Vegas, if it happens like everyone hopes it will happen.
Garth has been out of the limelight for too long and fans really need a refresher course in how spectacular entertainer he really is. With all the trouble with the Great Recession, bankruptcies, foreclosures and unemployment, Garth Brooks could bring a whole lot of smiles to a whole lot of places.
Let us all hope that the rumors of a 16-week Garth Brooks concert engagement in Las vegas are absolutely true and that he signs the contract as soon as humanly possible.
Check out the Encore Theater's Web site for more information.

Post a Commenti've been waiting for years to see garth - now the shows are sold out except for the ticket agents on line who want to charge close to $1000 for a $150 ticket! i think that ought to be against the law!
looks like i'll never get to see garth in person. . .
apparently GB is making a "Big Announcment" today @ 3pm
I'm in South Dakota-and if he DOES open a vegas show you better believe I'll be the first one in sin city to see him play!
I saw Garth Brooks perform in Calgary a number of years ago. It would be worth seeing for sure!
Yes, Malina...George Strait is tops in my book, too!
Good news update!
I hadn't heard about this, thanks for the info.
I'm close enough to see him.
It's hard to keep a good man down.
I prefer George Strait! Great info though for those who are awaiting Garth!
