Country superstar Garth Brooks says Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton is why he's adding a second concert when he visits Minneapolis.

Brooks and Dayton made the concert announcement after the governor asked the country superstar to schedule another performance when tickets for his May 4 concert in Minneapolis sold out in less than an hour.

The governor's office says at least 50,000 people were in line, on the phone or online Friday when the last ticket was sold for the concert at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.

After 8 years as Governor, Marx Dayton has sealed his legacy as a champion of the people.

Remember, that after his pitiful term in the US Senate, he was voted as the "Worst" Senator by his peers.

Don’t know anything about him.

This is about Dayton ruining MN for 8 years and he thinks that this will make us all happy.

Brooks is not country. Not close. He’s a liberal.

And a big heir to the Dayton’s fortune.

Never had a real job and hides millions in outstate tax free funds.

“My wife [country musician Faith Hill] and I and our family will do everything we can to support Obama. I like his ideas, I like his energy and I like the statement he would make for our country to the world.”

We need less of this stuff. Much less.

Undoubtedly. My reason for posting the above was to remedy the notion that you can’t be a country artist if you’re liberal.

Yep, he is single-handedly responsible for the wussification of Country Music.

All Butt and $4,000 hats. Hank Williams Sr would laugh this clown off the stage.

He just put his music out there and people bought it. I don’t like his music partly because his voice is not particularly musical. He’s gotten a lot of mileage out of running around on the stage. Some might call that putting on an energetic show.

So you’re being sarcastic? I would think this a pretty popular move for a pol.

How did he get re-elected?

It makes sense there would be a market for fake country stars among the growing number of fake country music fans.
