Garth Brooks heads back to where it all started | Music City Minute

Garth Brooks is heading back to where it all started. Fresh off a history-making sold out show at London's Hyde Park that drew over 70,000 fans, Brooks announced the Blame It All On My Roots Tour, a full-scale return to arenas featuring the comeback of his iconic Drum Pod. If that name doesn't ring a bell, it will for anyone who saw Garth in the '90s. The Drum Pod was a massive enclosure that surrounded his drummer during his 1996 world tour, and it became one of the most recognizable stage setups in concert history. That tour produced "Double Live," which went on to become the biggest-selling live album of all time at 25 million copies certified. In an Instagram video teasing its return, Brooks dusted off the old equipment and said, "How long's it been, old girl? Thirty years? Maybe it's time we put you back to work." The tour kicks off August 21 and 22 with back-to-back nights at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, with more cities to be announced. And here's the kicker: every single seat is the same price: $154 all-in. No presales, no VIP tiers, no advance box office. All tickets go on sale at the same time on July 17 through Ticketmaster with a limit of eight per order. Brooks said, "Going back into the arenas is about putting the stadium show in a box. The excitement gets multiplied by the intimacy. Every seat is a great seat. This is personal." He's also recording the shows for a new live project called Killer Live, continuing his tradition of capturing concerts in real time.   I'm Brailey, and that's your Music City Minute.
