A few days ago, a countdown clock appeared on Garth Brooks‘ official website. The clock indicated that it would end at 7 AM ET on July 7th, and text above the timer read “The Future Is About To Become History.”
Because of the 7 AM announcement time on 7/7, many fans felt that Brooks was referencing 777, a symbol often associated with jackpots and, therefore, Las Vegas. This led to speculation that Brooks was teasing an upcoming residency at the Sphere, where artists such as Zac Brown Band, Kenny Chesney, and the Eagles have performed.
The meaning behind the mysterious countdown clock was finally revealed when it expired on Tuesday morning. Brooks is embarking on a new arena tour!
“…a full-scale return to the arenas that made him a legend, featuring the return of the iconic drum pod and the production that changed live music forever.”
The article on Brooks’ website says the Blame It All On My Roots Tour will also serve as the foundation for a new project called Killer Live. This project has been described as a “new approach to live recording that continues Brooks’ tradition of capturing history in real time.”
Additionally, Brooks unveiled the tour’s first stop. He’ll travel to Indianapolis, Indiana, to perform at Gainbridge Fieldhouse on August 21st and August 22nd.
