Garth is coming out of retirement.
Cool.
Beginning December 11 and running through the end of February, he’ll do 15 one-man weekend shows at the Wynn Las Vegas at $125 a pop.
A few fast facts on Garth…
…Garth has sold over 128 million CDs.
…In 2007, he passed Elvis to become the top selling solo artist in US history.
…His 2008 release, “The Ultimate Hits” finished 10th on Billboard’s list of best selling CDs for the year.
…In our last A&O Gold sort, Garth had eight songs among the top 100 testers.
I’m always excited when country grabs headlines and when one of our acts gets on a marquis (check out the Wynn’s home page).
On your gold list or not, and without any current music, I’m glad to hear that Garth’s performing again.
