Vegas is all about the show.  Sometimes it's not even the actual show, but the show all around the show.  The more flash the better, right?  So, imagine my surprise when Garth Brooks steps out on stage at the Encore in Vegas wearing just jeans, a hoodie and work boots with his guitar and completely wowed everyone in the crowd.
 His voice is beyond awesome, his showmanship so fun to watch.  I smiled, I laughed, I teared up, I sang along to every song (ahh, the Dance!) and all of this with no dancing girls in tights or even tigers!  A show that was really just about the show.

We flew out from Virginia and saw him Friday 6/25. Hoodie, boots and jeans made me smile. The music made me cry. His stories made me laugh. And at the end of the night Garth had a new fan (hubby) and a very happy fan who compared Garth to her and her dad's James Taylor who can't wait for "Mr. Yearwood" to go on a road tour soon. :)

The man has unbelievable talent! I have an even deeper appreciation for his music. He played songs like Alabama Clay from his first CD. Lonesome Dove was awesome. How does he remember these from so long ago?? Garth can sure sing some songs by artists who inspired him growing up. Seger was my favorite! Garth is the conductor and his fans are the orchestra. They know just when to sing along, or just when to listen. He is the ultimate storyteller! Hearing him sing the last few versus of Shameless a cappella left me breathless! It sounded like the words came straight from his soul! He is interactive with the audience, which makes the show seem intimate. I have been to MANY live concerts, but I prefer this setting. It's like you're in GB's living room. The sound is perfect. I can't wait to go back! Garth said God gave him this talent to share with us. I'm so thankful he does! Tracie in Houston
