One of Ali's favorites, Garth Brooks Friends in Low Places (Reaction!)

[@anotheryou218]

Garth's "secret sauce" is the unbridled joy he takes in performing. If you didn't "fall in love" with the songs, the voice, the art, the music, the charisma, and the talent, that boundless glee will surely get you. It's overwhelming.

[@tridelta2006]

That instrument is a steel guitar, an absolute staple of classic country music 🎶

[@mr.smithgnrsmith7808]

Lap steel

[@theaspiephotographer]

Nope, it’s a pedal steel guitar and it was played [at that concert] by Steve McClure.

[@sandyhafenbrack141]

To be at one of his concerts is truly an experience. Friends In Low Places always blows the roof off the place. My favorite part is when Garth just sits on stage and does a song like The River and he stops singing and just listens to the audience as they sing the song to him. There's just nothing like it.

[@tonyfro23]

I've been to AC DC Metallica Kid Rock Korn Zeppelin reunion Eagles both and EVERY country artist that performed from 1975-2005 that anyone cares about I'm not a Garth homer BUT his concerts are freaking amazing top 2 or 3 in probably 1000 I've been too...along with Tool

I was just coming here to say that! :)

[@mamakat114]

My dear dear late friend Dannie Jo Jones played pedal steel guitar for the Bellamy Brothers, played on all the songs late 70's through mid 80's. 'Ain't Just Whistlin Dixie' 'Lovers Live Longer' 'If I Said You Had A Beautiful Body Would You Hold It Against Me" 'Redneck Girl". They are such a talent duo, with an amazing band. Very underated!

I finally got to see Garth live several years ago at Target Center, in Minneapolis. It was the greatest concert I've ever seen! His energy and the crowd are amazing.

This is also one of the most sung country songs in Karaoke bars. It doesn't usually take much to get the audience involved 😅

[@laforge001]

This video is from the Garth Brooks Double Live DVD Set. For audio sync, the close ups on Garth in the blue shirt was filmed in the old Dallas Cowboys field known as Texas Stadium, that stadium is no longer standing. You have a keen eye to have noticed different crowds. They actually included footage of crowds in New York City, Dublin Ireland, and some other places. If you ever get a chance to get your hands on Double Live DVD set, you will not regret it. I have this set and still watch it sometimes.

Garth was the consummate performer! That’s why he has sold soooooo many records!!! He has sold over 170 million records. He remains to this day the best selling solo artist, with 157 million album sales. Impressive.

[@chiefsteps-in-poo8447]

The place is packed and EVERY concert is like that. He's one of the 3 top performers of all time. Elvis, The Beatles and Garth Brooks. And Garth is catching up. And his entrances on stage are legendary. I went to a show at LSU in '98 and when he came out, he started singing off stage. Then a piano rose up in the middle of the stage and he's playing it. Or you think that's him. In the first verse the real GB rises up out of the piano. At LSU in April, the drums were in the middle and he starts singing his opening song. Then the drums start rising and he's under them like he's pushing them up to get on stage. AWESOME!!!

I saw him live at his Vegas show in 2011 to mark a milestone birthday. A very different vibe than this arena shows. We were in the 4th row and he sat by himself on a stool and held that crowd in the palm of his hands. It was like he was doing a concert in your living room. Fabulous!

The third verse of this song is only heard in his live performances... Just like in his song "Thunder Rolls", which has a third verse they banned on radio back in the day... But you can hear it live... Garth's live shows used to be dirt cheap... Like 65-75% cheaper then his competition... And, in many cases, gave as much as 10x the show to boot... Also... @ 10:51 ... His wife, country singer Trisha Yearwood is with him... She is a great singer too... Last I heard, she had her own cooking show too... Not sure if it is still on though...

I saw in an interview once where Garth said that in the music video, if you listen closely, you can hear someone yell "push Marie!!!", in the final chorus. This is because in the 80-person choir singing backup, only 78 are singing. One is in labor, and one is assisting. 😊 Great song and great reaction ❤

This just made me so happy today! I'm sitting here smiling, singing along and remembering the many Garth concerts that I scraped together the money to see.

Sebs, you nailed the Michael Jordan comparison! Garth is well known to sell out his concerts in mere minutes and is just as well known to add shows sometimes 2 a night just so all his fans have an opportunity to see him! Not to mention, he keeps his ticket prices extremely reasonable compared to most artists! He’s such a humble, down to earth guy! And his energy is insane! He’s even gone literally flying through the venue so he could get closer to the upper levels! He said he walks the venue before the shows and sits in the upper sections and tries to think of ways to make the show special for everyone!❤❤

I live in a city of just over 300,000 and it had been 20 years since his last visit.

Garth Brooks is on of my all time favorite musicians. My first Garth concert was in December 1992. I was pregnant with my first child (Tyler) who was overdue so we bought general admission tickets at the gate. It was the BEST show ever!!!! My second concert was at Neyland Stadium in the January. My niece (not a country fan) went with me and we realized our seats were on the very last row and it was frigid. Despite the conditions, I'll never forget her turning to me and saying "I didn't know this was going to be so awesome!"

[@whitewalker57]

Garth was my first ever concert! 1991. Long, but great story of how I got tickets at a time when he was selling out in minutes (back before internet sales). Also was how I met my best friend (and man of honor at both weddings, and friend of 30+ years) after I sold him the seat next to me after a fight with the then-boyfriend. It was amazing. The bar was set high for concerts, and few have cleared it. Saw him 2 more times before he semi-retired.

[@AprilStoner-y8x]

I can’t even really remember the then-boyfriend, but will forever be grateful for him being an ass and refusing to go. As for the tickets, got them because my cousin was playing football at an HBC, and each week I attended his games and they were announcing proudly they’d just became a ticket outlet for whatever the ticket seller was for the area venues. Drove to the other local ticket outlet morning they went on sale. Line was wrapped around 4 blocks and trailed into the town square. I moseyed over to the HBC venue, did some begging of the elderly African American lady who was already there. She let me cut in, I was able to be first in line at that outlet, and got great seats! The show was awesome. Heard later that about 40 people of the hundreds waiting in line were able to buy tickets before it sold out. It was that way at all the normal ticket outlet locations. By the third time Garth came around, the HBC venue was not as much of a secret among white folks, but I was still able to get seats before Garth sold out.

I used to cook for his parents. I remember the night I first met them. It was the night after he won his first Entertainer of the Year award in 1991. They were at the awards when he won. They stroll in the door, order some burgers and went to sit down. I finish the order and everyone wanted to take the food to them. I asked what the big deal was and on cue they all look at me and say, that's Garth's parents. I said, okay...who is Garth? (I was a metal guy, sue me). They turned one of the televisions around and it was the news showing Garth winning the night before and those two people clearly sitting next to him. Very nice people. They came in maybe 4 or 5 more times before I graduated high school and moved away from good old Yukon, Oklahoma! He was our QB!

We play pool, bowl in a bowling league, wakeboard all summer, and workout. We also rarely agree on anything as he is an Engineer and I am a Philosophy professor. Lol yall remind me of us.
