Just saw Garth Brooks on the Christmas Half Time NBA Show.

I am so glad that he is skipping the TRUMP INAUGURATION.


That clown and his band of deplorable acolytes must never be normalized.

1. Years ago I went to a big company convention at the big convention hotel in Nashville

And a Garth Brooks lookalike was greeting convention goers as the got off the bus from the airport..
I would have been more impressed had I a clue as to who the hell Garth Brooks was.

2. Garth Brooks is a local guy who is pretty fucking awesome

He liked, no he loved President Obama.

4. He performed at the "We Are One" inauguration concert in 2008.

It was the one that featured the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Denzel Washington, U2, Beyonce and JayZ, Stevie Wonder, Paul Simon, Josh Grobin, Tom Hanks...

Garth comes on at 1:09:30, one of only a couple of artists who sang more than one song:

I generally can't stand country music, but Garth Brooks is one of a few exceptions.

3. I hope that no one involved in Obama's inauguration would lower themselves to perform for DT.

Garth and Trisha just performed at the White House Christmas tree lighting. I'm guessing they're both as upset at the outcome as the rest of us.
