The top Twitter reactions to the Garth Brooks madness 

Garth Brooks fans were out in force on Twitter today

Country music star Garth Brooks on the roof of Croke Park in Dublin

There was a strong sense of deja vu on Twitter this morning as Garth Brooks added a third, fourth and fifth date at Croke Park next year. Here are some of our favourite reactions.

How we all felt this morning 

The one from a ‘Garth Brooks baby’ 

This one evoked some memories

It's ok if you "don't get" the appeal of Garth Brooks.

It just means you're probably from Dublin and don't know the magic of singing along to one lad badly playing "friends in low places" in someone's kitchen at 5am while trying to find bread to make tayto and cheese sambos.

Even Dustin the Turkey chimed in 

Just passed 463 Culchies walking up and down Grafton Street looking for HMV.... what’s going on?#GarthBrooks

Is it easier to book a PCR than get Garth Brooks tickets?

I just tried to book a PCR test and I've wound up with 8 Garth Brooks tickets wtf

Funny, but so wrong 

Could we test everyone who bought #GarthBrooks tickets for Covid. Cos they don't seem to have a sense of taste

Blindboy put it eloquently, as we’d expect 

This Garth Brooks thing doesn’t and has never felt like a gig. There’s a hum of Novena off it. It’s Daniel O Connell at the Hill of Tara. We’re trying to satiate some unknown collective hunger by witnessing the man in double denim

This one hit a little too close to home

The Garth Brooks fan starter pack

We're not crying, you are

I will hear no Garth Brooks ticket bashing. For a lot of people, who are now in their 30s, Garth was a HUGE part of our childhood.

In 1997 I was given a ticket to his first Croker gig. It was my first HUGE concert.

I cried then and this morning, I cried for that little girl.

Even Garth Brooks liked this one 

Dad saw him in ‘97 when I was 2 and my brother was 5.

Next year my brother turns 30 and him, Dad and I are going to see him live!

Spent my childhood growing up with this man, because of my Dad - can’t quite believe we’re actually going!! https://t.co/ZN6tdwk4Ul
