It was reported last night that Garth's next desire is
to tour with Kiss.
I AM NOT kidding.

Stay tuned . . .

This is kinda funny. The following is a spoof I wrote
for Ink19, a music paper out of Florida. It will be
printed this weekend. Hmmm?

“Kiss”in’ Cousins? 

Brooks, KISS to tour

2.25.99 Nashville Times

The noise you hear all over Music Row is the sound of
jaws dropping,as details of the upcoming summer tour
featuring Garth Brooks and Kiss were released to
the media today. Spurred on by the favorable reception
garnered by the  Hole/Marilyn Manson and Ani
Defranco/Nashville Pussy pairings already announced,
Garth Brooks and Kiss frontman Gene Simmons held a
press conference today to announce the 50 city
tour, which will begin in Atlanta--because, as noted by
Simmons: “It’s where the Sex Pistols started in
America, and that’s as good an omen as you can have”.
(Simmons must be forgetting that the band imploded
after that tour, with bassist Sid Vicous ultimatly
overdosing in his mothers house.) 

Brooks stated his reason for the pairing: “Well, I did
actually record a song of theirs for that tribute
album, “Kiss My Ass”, and since I want to sell a CD to
every man, woman and child in the known world, this is
the logical next step. We share a lot of fans... not
literally, ya know, just in the charts.” 

Both Kiss and Brooks will perform a full two hour show
each night, with a combined encore of “I’m a Little Bit
Country, You’re a Little Bit Rock and Roll”. The tour
is scheduled to end up in Las Vegas on New Years Eve,
where agents for both acts are attempting to secure
permission to have the show staged on a runway at
Groom Lake, commonly known as “Area 51”. Since this
site was sold by the government to Bill Gates a
few years ago, all plans look a go. Stay tuned for
details.

I wonder if Jim didn't somehow pick up on that.  I haven't been able to find
anything in the way of recent news on Brooks other than a lot of stories
about his spring training experiences and a few about his upcoming album.
He was on Prime Time Country last night with Trisha Yearwood, and didn't
mention this (though I missed the first half of the show).  What I saw of
the show was pretty nice; he accompanied her on guitar on a couple of songs,
with a lot of chit-chat in between.  Brooks came off as a nice guy with a
pretty dry, self-deprecating sense of humor.
