Proper music, good songs, good guy, good entertainer..what else could you want?
Everyone to their own of course
I never understand the term "has been" as people apply it to bands - should we be going to see the latest boy band instead ?

Indeed, the Battle of Clontarf was fought between the Kingdom of Leinster, allied with the Hiberno-Scandinavian city of Dublin, against the invading Munster King Brian Boru. Even then it was better to ally with foreigners than have the place overrun by culchies.

Does Garth Brooks really love us? An hour with the man shines a light on our mutual weirdness
Brooks is a consummate showman who has identified something that Ireland needs.

So does that mean Leinster fans are not only West Brits, they're also West Norwegians?Indeed, the Battle of Clontarf was fought between the Kingdom of Leinster, allied with the Hiberno-Scandinavian city of Dublin, against the invading Munster King Brian Boru.

I love the comment at the end; "Fair play to Garth, he has a busy week ahead, 400k cattle to milk"Mutual weirdness:

Neither, we're just aware of the corrosive and damaging influence Munster fans have. I do agree that we are far less inbred, as can be seen by facial symmetry, ear shape, hygiene and general temperament.
Saw him in Chicago on a junket some years ago , whilst there on sufferance with clients I could not but be awestruck at the stage set up which revolved 360 degrees to give fans a brilliant view in a huge indoor stadium and the energy expended by the man was incredible , the only bum note was the encores when he butchered the brilliant Night Moves by Bob Seger and Who’ll stop the the rain by John Fogerty !
Would I go again - no - my tastes in country run more to Hank Williams and Dwight Yoakam but anyone going is guaranteed a brilliant spectacle , the music they will hear is a matter of personal taste and as someone said above everyone to their own.
As an aside there was a huge amount of Irish fans at the gig as it took place just after the Dublin gigs were cancelled - flags and country GAA jerseys from every county - the majority from Dublin !

I see we have one champion not afraid to speak for Dublin
There’s a real sadness in the air in Dublin today. An sense of loss has taken hold of my people.Dubliners are strong by nature so please know, my fellow citizens, that there will be better days ahead. We got through Covid, we can get through this. #CulchieInvasion #GarthInIreland

Of course it could also be a case that no one down the country really wants to bring a jackeen home. It would be a bit embarrassing for us.Neither, we're just aware of the corrosive and damaging influence Munster fans have.

Yes, people don't like being shown up like that but don't be so hard on yourself, there is a significant cohort of boggers who are almost civilised. Some even wash with what could be called regularity.
Indeed some even understand what uncouth means.And everyone else laughs at people in Waterford who think they live in a city.
In fairness you can bring them anywhere twice - the second time to apologise
at least ye wont be down for the ploughing ! That requires going beyond kildareNeither, we're just aware of the corrosive and damaging influence Munster fans have. I do agree that we are far less inbred, as can be seen by facial symmetry, ear shape, hygiene and general temperament.
I'd actually love to go, and see where all the Farmers Dole (now called the Farm Assist Scheme) is spent.
Seriously though, is the Ploughing ever held in Munster any more? It must be 20 years since it was held outside Leinster.
