So that’s why Garth Brooks gave away a guitar. In case you missed it, country music legend Garth Brooks played his only concert of 2025 last weekend. Over 100,000 fans piled into the Formula 1 United States Grand Prix in Austin, Texas to catch Garth’s sole show of the year, and from the videos online and what fans had to say about the show, it looked like one heck of a time. Garth Brooks shared details about the concert through a media outlet… directed connected to his website. There’s a news tab on garthbrooks.com that posted about the show that 100,000-plus fans attended, and here’s what Garth had to say about the high-energy concert he put on: “They were ready at the start and never waned. They had spent all day in over 90-degree heat and still had the strength to wear my ass out! It’s ALWAYS epic to play Texas.” If you just found out that Garth Brooks releases news stories about himself on his own website, don’t feel like you’ve been left out. I just found that out as well. Brooks traditionally likes to keep things close to his chest, so it makes sense that the one of the only news stories about the October 18 show is posted through Garth’s website. Which coincidentally doesn’t have a comment section… that’s undoubtedly intentional, and an attempt to ward off the “Where are the bodies?” community. As I stated earlier, the concert was apparently one to remember. Garth brought out all of the hits, including “Friends In Low Places” and “The Dance,” and had the multi-generational crowd in the palm of his hands. He also had a guitar in the palm of his hands that evidently gave out on him early on in the show… so he gave it away to a kid in the crowd. Here’s how he explained the moment going down: “I told the crowd, ‘On this ship, if you don’t work, you get off the ride.’ My guitar wasn’t working. I saw the child on his parent’s shoulders and just handed it to someone in the crowd who handed it back to someone who in turn handed it back to someone else. I watched the guitar travel on top of the crowd until it reached the young boy. THAT story defines the country music audience. That story describes Texas.” I’ll agree with Garth on this one… it is cool that the guitar crowd-surfed all the way back to who it was intended for. That is a country music audience, for sure. Here’s the video of the kid receiving the guitar that “no longer worked,” according to Garth: @masonkoma Country music legend in every way #garthbrooks #countrymus #ATX #garthbrooksfans #garth ♬ original sound – masonkoma On one hand, that’s a moment that the kid will never forget for the rest of his life. On the other… now he’s got to head to his nearest Guitar Center to get it fixed?The post Garth Brooks Says He Gave Guitar To Young Fan At F1 U.S. Grand Prix Because… It Wasn’t Working first appeared on Whiskey Riff.

Iron Maiden will continue on the road in 2026 celebrating their five decades of existence and they will have some really special guests on their North American tour. On selected dates the Thrash Metal bands Anthrax and Megadeth will be their opening acts. The band's leader and bassist Steve Harris talked about the tour, saying: “We are greatly looking forward to bringing this Run For Your Lives Tour to North America and hope the fans enjoy seeing the show and hearing the set list as much as we do playing it. It’s an added bonus to have a few of our good friends on the tour with us. Megadeth are playing all the shows and it’s an honour to have them join us on their last ever tour. We also have Anthrax with us on the bigger shows, we had a great time with them when they came out with us on Ed Force One around the world in 2016. We’re delighted to have both bands with us for this tour and know our fans will enjoy seeing them.” Bruce Dickinson also talked about the tour: “This whole tour has been such great fun. I really enjoy belting out all these great old songs, and the whole band are loving playing them too! We’ve got all the big ones from that early period including Hallowed, Run To The Hills, Trooper, Number Of The Beast, Killers, Powerslave, 2 Minutes… and some of them we haven’t played in the US for over 20 years!! Plus there’s some real epics including my particular favourite ‘Rime of the Ancient Mariner’ and Seventh Son… We are doing them all and more. I mean, who wouldn’t for a 50th birthday party!” Iron Maiden tour dates with Megadeth and Anthrax August 29 - Toronto, ON - Scotiabank Arena (With Megadeth) September 3 - Montréal, QC - Parc Jean-Drapeau (With Megadeth and Anthrax) 5 - Harrison, NJ - Sports Illustrated Stadium (With Megadeth and Anthrax) 9 - Boston, MA - TD Garden (With Megadeth) 11 - Bristow, VA - Jiffy Lube Live (With Megadeth) 12 - Charlotte, NC - PNC Music Pavilion (With Megadeth) 15 - Hershey, PA - Hersheypark Stadium (With Megadeth) 17 - Louisville, KY - Louder Than Life Festival (Festival date) 19 - Shakopee, MN - Mystic Lake Amphitheater (With Megadeth) 22 - Chicago, IL - Credit Union 1 Amphitheatre (With Megadeth) 25 - Los Angeles, CA - BMO Stadium (With Megadeth and Anthrax) 29 - San Antonio, TX – Alamodome (With Megadeth and Anthrax) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrm5KavmvyUThe post Iron Maiden announces tour dates with Megadeth and Anthrax appeared first on Rock and Roll Garage.
