Garth's one man show is truly a unique event,

Wilson Dixon New Zealand's worst standup Comedian














Wilson Dixon is not only the worst stand up
comedian New Zealand has produced, but
he must also be one of the weakest stand up
comedian's on the globe.

Can you imagine, if  someone wanted  to satirize a rock
star image, and they ended up dressing like Cliff Richard.

Can you imagine if someone wanted to satirize a pop
star and they dressed up as Jerry Lee Lewis.

Can you imagine if someone wanted to satirize a
Rap artist and they had a Basketball in their hand.

Well every Journalist, every critic, every member of the
public would boo that comedian off the stage.

For some reason though, this guy is cheered, are
kiwis this dumb? are we that ignorant of the genre
of country music, that we think this is good
satire, that we think he has perfected it?

He is not even close, to what  a good satire of
the country music genre would be.

He needs to take lessons from a Jeff Foxworthy
or a Rodney Carrington.

But hey, when you have Journalists and critics
such as the ones in New Zealand, you don't
have to be close, you don't have to be anywhere
near perfect, you just have to talk in a strange
accent about horses while wearing a hat.

His unfunny advice to wannabe country singers
to "have sex with an animal" is just pathetic and pointless,
can you imagine if a stand up comedian making fun of
the rap genre said his advice to wanna be rap singers
would be to  "Go out and attack a white woman'

There would be hell to pay.

My biggest problem with so called comedian Jesse
Dixon's alter ego, "Wilson", is that he isn't funny.

Garth Brooks is Not Dead














Garth Brooks has become another artist to be
part of an Internet death hoax.

Some sites around the web, were reporting that he
died falling off a boat.

Haven't people got more to do with their time, than
make up stories, about people dying?

What do they get out of it?

Thankfully Garth Brooks is still alive and well
and hopefully it will stay that way for a long
long time.

2014 is right around the corner
















In 18 months, it will be 2014, and Garth Brooks will
come out of retirement, which means a full tour and
a new studio album, it will be his first studio album
since 2001 and his first time touring since his last
tour ended in 1998.

Fans have been waiting for over a decade, and even
though we love his wife, fellow country artist, Trisha
Yearwood-Brooks, it must be said, that some fans
might be a tad disappointed that we have waited this
long for a duet album and a duet tour.

Maybe it would be a better idea for Garth to do a
studio album of just him first, and tour for a year first,
but it would appear, this isn't the case.

I think fans will be so eager to see and hear Garth
again  that a duet album and  a duet tour will do brilliant.

Not as good though as if it was Just 100% Garth.

Time will tell.

Garth Brooks Inducted into Country Music's Hall Of Fame













Congrats to Garth Brooks for being inducted into,
Country Music's hall of fame, a huge honor for
any artist, especially sweet since he will be among
his heroes George Strait and Merle Haggard.

The always humble Garth Brooks who retired from
recording and full touring in 1999 to look after his three
daughters, is set to come out of retirement in 2014, once
his youngest daughter turns 18 and leaves for college.

Congrats to Mr Brooks and congrats to the country
music hall of fame for honoring this great man.

GARTH BROOKS WINS COURT CASE












BREAKING NEWS: A jury has  ordered Integris
to pay back $500 Thousand to Garth Brooks for
failing to name a wing at their hospital after the
country superstar's late mother.

The Jury now has to decided on Punitive damages, the
Jury said that the Hospital  acted with Fraud and intentional
malice and disregard for others.

Here's hoping this sends a strong message to Integris, that
in the future they will treat people and with the respect they
deserve.

Well done to Garth Brooks and his family.

Update. (It would appear the fraud is a big element in
this case and the Jury has decided the Hospital had
no intention of building another wing for Woman's Health
and naming it after Garth Brook's mother)

Update2: (A further $500 Thousand has been awarded
to Garth Brooks in punitive damages.)

Here's hoping it  a lesson to all Hospitals around the world, if you
receive a large donation for something as important
as a Woman's Health Centre, make sure you build
it, its the right thing to do.

Garth Brooks Emotional Court Appearance















Gotta feel for Garth Brooks at the moment,  to donate
money to a Hospital thinking they were going to name
awing after your mother who has passed on, only to
find that they have taken the money, but didn't name
the wing after her, must be gutting.

What can one say, it would appear the good nature
of Garth Brooks has been taken advantage of, this
man has done a ton of charity work, he is always
hands on, his recent work in rebuilding homes
in Haiti  was amazing, he certainly doesn't just
lend his name to causes, he does the work.

Fans have been outside the courthouse, I
kinda think they should let him go through
this without having to be on, though.

So it sad when all this happens, let hope the
court decides in Garth's favour.
