This really hurts

Oh man. Still young. I guess he found his lost shaker of salt.
Always wanted to be a free spirit when I grew up. I was hoping to wake with better news this morning. Bummer

He wasn't as free a spirit as he appeared. After his shows, when the rest of his band would go party, he would go to his hotel room and count the receipts of the night. He was a smart businessman.

Yeah I wasn't being negative. I've always admired the man. Top of the morning to you!

Another one bites the dust...

He turned a beach-bum life into an empire. The guy was a billionaire and all business. Just about everything he touched turned to gold. He died at a young age of 76 and couldn't take any of it with him, dam shame, doesn't seem fair. RIP

He left it for us. Made a mark on me. I think he did it right

The guy had to be smart and is definitely eating a Cheeseburger in Paradise.

My favorite song of his.

The guy had to be smart, but I never did care for his singing. Maybe I don't know what good singing is as I don't even like Garths singing. What's that saying "he did the most with the least". I have family members that say that about Kenny Chestney.

Not a huge Garth fan myself, especially anything after the first two albums. Kenny is a lot the same. Pop radio country is not my thing though, for the most part. More of a Zach Bryan sound for me.

I guess he will no longer need that lost shaker of salt. RIP

The girls in that audience seem so much better looking than the ones you see at those kinds of venues today...
