Brooks: It's all or nothing!

Garth Brooks has delivered an ultimatum to Dublin City Council, saying it's five shows or none at all!

Following the news that the Council had only given permission for just three of his five Croke Park shows, the singer said "It is five show or none at all".

”I can’t thank the people of Ireland enough for how welcome they have made me feel.

"I have faith that Dublin City Council will make the best decision for the people of Ireland. For us, it is five shows or none at all.

"To choose which shows to do and which shows not to do, would be like asking to choose one child over another.

"However this plays out, Ireland has my heart and always will.”

According to the promoter, Peter Aiken, he said whilst planning the Garth Brooks gigs, he had been in daily contact with Dublin City Council, and had been given no understanding that any of the concerts were in jeopardy.
