Around the Web: Garth Brooks Lays Down the Law

Posted: February 27th, 2008 at 4:27 pm  |  By: Link Ray  

Sounds like Garth Brooks should be the one up all night, cleaning his gun. Now that his daughters are growing up, he had to set down some ground rules for dating.

Even the highbrow Wall Street Journal can't help but hear the soul in the SteelDrivers' bluegrass. Music they themselves call "something with a little dirt under its nails."

With the Cyrus daddy-daughter duo tapped to host the 2008 CMT Music Awards, tickets are long gone. Was that the plan all along?

From the my-roots-have-been-country-all-along files, Eddie Money is producing a country album with revamps of his own hits like "Two Tickets to Paradise." No predictions on how long he'll stay country.

Pizza, pot stickers and a private show. That's what Julie Roberts fans are vying for in the contest to win a private concert, thanks to Red Baron Pizza and Asian Sensations.

Mindy McCready's trial date has been set for August, where she'll be tried for battery and resisting arrest. Expect a country song about her imprisonment to follow.

    God Bless Mindy. She is a very good entertainer and I hate to see her get messed up like she has. Lets just all pray for her recovery. Come back with our blessings Mindy.

    I don’t blame Garth, like it says in the song (cleaning my gun) I don’t want my 16 yr. old daughter going out with a guy like i was at that age. A walkin talkin bag o hormones. At that age the only things on my mind were motorcycles, boobs and what went with em.
    My daughter can not date any guys i haven’t met previously.
    He will come to the door every time he comes to pick her up.
    He will have a full tank of gas
    He will also get a preview to my weapons collection.
    He will use complete words in complete sentences and use words like mam, miss, sir.
    Hammer

    I think that’s great!!! Someone is finally talking sense into their kids. I’m in my teens( believe it or not) and my parents have taught me not to date until I’m truley ready for a long term commitment. Way to go and they may not think it fair now, but it will pay off.

    It couldn’t have been any more preceft. We waited a long time for Christy to find her prince charming and David is the preceft one for her. All weddings are special, but this wedding was the best of the best. May you both have long, happy life together. We are so very proud of all you have accomplished Christy, especially finding your preceft soul mate. We love you for all the memories you have given us and especially your beautiful wedding. We love you too David as you are now a part of the family Halstead . Love ya’s both. Marilynn and Bill
