Garth brooks rocks and i'll tell you why:  He's one of only a select few Country Music studs who's legendary status will hold steadfast because unlike nameless others his songs aren't all the same lame routine meaning they have range rather then all having the same sound.

i agree. he's been retired 8 years and he's still as big as he was the day he retired. he said he may be coming back once his youngest daughter is in college
