Fwiw….I wouldn’t go it it was free.


That's fair, but it's likely that you've gone to numerous concerts featuring artists with very liberal views (unless you just don't go to any concerts at all). Most musicians/entertainers are liberal.

Kid Rock sure as hell didn’t perform for that dementia patient!

frick Garth Brooks and anyone who supports the current administration. People like you are what's really wrong with this country. Lack of principles. At least the Libs and Progs stand by what they believe! The wishy-washy majority, just bitches and moans about the things they know are wrong, then go out an spend what money they have, supporting the very people that support everything you are against. Anti-gay agenda, anti-groomer, anti-abortion, and spend $5000 taking the kids to Disney. Lack of principles is what is truly killing this country.
Do you think that maybe your "frick everyone who disagrees with me" attitude might be part of what's wrong with the country?

they don't care about facts and reality... they only want to sing along to "Callin' Baton Rouge" and pretend that Garth Brooks isn't the MASSIVE piece of shite, woke, White-trash, liberal that he truly is.

Garth Brooks is a LIAR. Garth Brooks is a fraud. Garth Brooks is a piece of shite.

If you're a performer and the POTUS* asks you to perform you probably do it. Some folks don't live or die with politics. They go fishing, go to concerts, take road trips, and generally just enjoy their lives.


If you're convinced there were shenanigans during the '20 election and this supposed POTUS elect won't acknowledge it, then you can honor him and dishonor the people or vice-versa, You can't have it both ways.

When election integrity is lost then America is fundamentally changed. There are things, e.g., DoI and the COTUS, that are bigger than the POTUS.

He's an institution who has sold a lot of records and is a dynamic performer, but when you break down his music it is really corny, hokey stuff. Garth was the predecessor for acts like Rascal Flatts and Florida Georgia Line.

If you live life only being entertained by those whose politics align with yours, you have Kid Rock, Ted Nugent, and Bocephus. Old Bocephus. Not prime Bocephus. Eric Clapton is rabid anti-vax but I don’t know how he feels about other politics. Derek and the Dominoes era Clapton was probably pretty fricking liberal. Alcoholic, heroin addicted wife swappers usually are living life loose and fast.

Actors? You got Clint Eastwood. Ancient Clint too. Not Unforgiven era or even Josey Wales era Clint.

Artistic people are left leaning. Get over it.

I saw a video where he said some racist arse shite in the 70's so you are probably good with him.

I know he did.

I do not care about his politics.

I do not care where else he performs.

Get a life.

there was a time where everyone understood this.

Those days are gone for way too many people.

Too many athletes refused to go to the WH to celebrate a championship when Trump was there.

Now we are supposed to not like Garth because he performed when Biden asked him to do so.

Get over it, people.

Im not a Country fan, but would you say Garth is responsible for inflicting people like Luke Bryan and Sam Hunt etcetera on the world ? Becuase i heard a comedian say that ‘Country music today is nothing but 40 yr old guys singing about high school parties’ and i Lol’d…

The first point was that if a leftist artist played for trump, that person would be cancelled and shunned by the left because the left is incredibly intolerant and childish. But a country artist can play for Biden and conservatives will still fill a 100,000 seat stadium for him. Care to comment on that? Anything untrue about that?


Because most conservatives (and people who live in the South for that matter) generally want to enjoy life. They don't want to spend their entire lives denying things they enjoy just in order to "cancel" someone/something.

It's got to be a terrible, terrible life to spend your time keeping track of what artists, restaurants, cities, actors, etc you want to attend based on the political leanings of those people.

Whereas most liberals / northerners are boring people with no joy for life, who constantly go through life being offended, and since their life is miserable, must spend as much time as they can trying to prevent others from enjoying their lives as well.

but you sound just like the angry liberal mobs that freaked out when anyone visited when Trump was President. No need to act like a toddler just because they do.


Have you been on the PT lately? Those people have 100 percent adopted the left's playbook.

His music is easy to listen to and easy to sing along to. That's why it is so popular.

It’s a damn shame that people don’t understand that and only have pride for their country when it is one way or the other.

Garth seems like a pretty stand up guy. He constantly honors god and spreads Christianity, has been with most of the same band members/backup singers for 30 plus years, donates a ton to kids groups, cancer organizations etc. Sure, he doesn’t vote the way I do, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to adopt this “cancel culture” that is plaguing the country right now.
