I reported a few weeks ago that Garth Brooks was wooed by Hotelier extraordinaire - Steve Wynn - to come out of retirement and perform long-term at the ever-popular Encore in the midst of the busy Vegas strip

Yup!
Tickets for tonight and over the weekend are apparently sold out, but show organizers have noted that there may be seats available at noon each day in a rush line once "cancelled" reservations are tallied and seats are freed up.
Although it's a bit frosty in the desert oasis just now, I expect a posse of die-hard fans will brave the elements, and pine in line for a crumb or two.
Brooks enjoys the good life!
He's a soccer dad with a personal jet at his disposal now-a-days.
That (the airliner) was one of the perks that Steve Wynn tossed in with the deal to seal it.
As Garth put it, somewhat humbly, "the plane was the whole thing."
Twice married, Brooks now shares wedded bliss with his second wife, Trisha Yearwood at their comfy digs in Owasso (OH).
"I told Wynn he couldn't afford me. I was wrong," the seasoned performer chuckled at a recent press junket.
Garth is allegedly signed on for up to 300 stage shows much to the delight of his fans.
See 'ya there!
