[Politics] Garth Brooks: Considering that nothing can be chill these days and that every move is a damning one, Brooks joked, "I might be the only Republican at this place. But it's reaching across, loving one another because that's what's going to get us through probably the most divided times that we have. I want the divided times to be behind us."

Garth Brooks continuing to prove that he is the rightful King of Country

I don't like country either but I actually commend Pence for being there. Even Mitch was
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
he even went out of his way to go over and say hi to the Obamas
horny on main.
I love that Garth is there. And Dr. Biden specifically asked for him.
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
and possibly did something silly on his way back, hence the giggles from everyone
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
he was legit happy to be there
BruberryMuffin
Yes. As someone who grew up with Garth Brooks music, just... Yes.
🌸Holly🌸
I love Garth, classy dude.
𝓵𝓲𝓵 𝓼𝓾𝓷𝓯𝓵𝓸𝔀𝓮𝓻
He also just...seems to be legit a decent guy? I saw him live in concert and he has a whole section of his concert where he just takes requests from the crowd, and seems genuinely delighted when the audience knows the words to his songs?? and it's like GARTH. there are 20,000 people here, your concert sold out in 6 minutes, OF COURSE WE KNOW THE WORDS
𝓵𝓲𝓵 𝓼𝓾𝓷𝓯𝓵𝓸𝔀𝓮𝓻
but he would just be like "what! You guys know this one?? wow!" and of course it may be a front, but after today, I'm putting him further in the "you're a Good Dude" column.

yeah same
antler queen
yessss

I grew up around a lot of barns that always had on country so there was always Garth on so I KIND OF HATED HIS MUSIC, but I remember stories about him setting aside tickets for fans who couldn't afford them at shows and stuff, so I think he's always been decent about that kind of thing.

I like Garth, big cheesy nostalgia feels
ᴅɪᴄᴋ ᴛʜɪᴇғ
im sure it takes a lot of conviction to stand up against "your kind" to be liek OK YALL STOP BEING IDIOTS AND LETS BE NICE TO EACH OTHER
𝓉𝒶𝒸𝑜 𝒷𝑒𝓁𝓁𝑒
yeah i've also seen him in concert and he's a delight on stage
BruberryMuffin
I've never seen him live, but I just remember seeing one of his filmed concerts in, like, the 90s and just the sheer amount of energy and joy the man had was incredible.

So I currently live in Garth Brooks home town
ᛕﻉɭค๓ٱՇץ
They're straight up calling him a traitor an there's already a petition to renamed Garth Brooks Dr so yeah he stuck his neck out a bit.
🌸Holly🌸
I wish people would stop with that nonsense
𝓉𝒶𝒸𝑜 𝒷𝑒𝓁𝓁𝑒
yeah fuck those people
ᛕﻉɭค๓ٱՇץ
honestly fuck oklahoma i'm done
ᛕﻉɭค๓ٱՇץ
but I... didn't actually mean to bring down the vibe. I was just trying to point out that, yeah, he took a bit of a risk with it.
🌸Holly🌸
he's not a traitor. He's acting like a decent American. fuck them.
BruberryMuffin
Wow. That's just... I wish I were more surprised?
*˜ɓuıʎɟıʇsʎɯ•°
this has been done for the last 45 inaugurals? The passing of the torch, the calling for unity. It's not... new? It's part of the reassurance of the continuing of the constitutional process.
ᴅɪᴄᴋ ᴛʜɪᴇғ
no one said it was new, but in this current climate it is not something people are willing to sacrifice their careers for
ᴅɪᴄᴋ ᴛʜɪᴇғ
to have him come out and ask for a little unity when his supporters have been fighting for Trump is a good show of character
ᴅɪᴄᴋ ᴛʜɪᴇғ

ᴛᴏᴍᴏʀʀᴏᴡ ᴄᴏᴍᴇs.
hopping on the garth is a cool guy train, I was at a concert of his and he legit recognized fans from other concerts in the crowd and asked them how they are and told the whole auditorium what concert(s) he remembered them from

I've always heard from people who go to a lot of concerts that his are actually some of the best in the business. Like, even from folks who don't like country at all, they've always said his shows are just so energetic and fun. I'm glad he continues to be A Good.

The only actual concert I've ever been to was a Garth Brooks concert. And it was awesome.
AmbularD
He held up the whole ceremony because he had to stop and run around and hug people on the way out, it was so SWEET
