Call this his ‘thanks, y’all’ concert

The other boot has dropped: Garth Brooks will return to the concert stage on Nov. 14, though it’s being billed as a one-night-only performance. The retired country superstar, who last toured in 1998, will play the Sprint Center arena in Kansas City, Mo., in what has been reported as a thank-you show for Wal-Mart’s support of his music.
“It’s huge, and that’s an understatement,” Mike Kennedy, program director at Kansas City country station KBEQ-FM, told the Kansas City Star.
Not coincidentally, the show comes right after the Nov. 6 release of a new three-disc Brooks career retrospective set, “The Ultimate Hits,” which includes 30 songs on two CDs plus a DVD with 33 videos, some of it previously unreleased footage.
