You may have heard that country music star Garth Brooks is coming to Central Illinois.  Well, now he's coming for an extended stay.

 

Garth Brooks retired for years to raise his daughters, and he has struggled to chart new hits this century, but no country act can touch his power as a concert draw. 

 

The country superstar has added two shows to his stay at Champaign's State Farm Center. He crossed the 50-thousand mark in tickets sold for the fourt concerts that will kick off Friday, April 28th. Shows were added Saturday April 29th at 3pm and Sunday, April 30th at 7:30 PM.
