While Brooks’ one-man shows at Wynn Las Vegas focused on the musical influences that Brooks credits for his own sound, the New Year’s Eve weekend shows will consist of the country music legend’s own repertoire of chart-topping songs accompanied by his full band.
“I’ve been itching for the chance to bring my band to Vegas to play this room,” said Brooks. “I can’t wait. Steve Wynn told me I could use the theater anytime. I asked him when I could start and his response was, ‘How about New Year’s Eve?’”
Brooks' CBS concert special on Black Friday was viewed by 8.7 million people nationwide and concurrently he released a new box set including new music from the singer exclusively sold at Walmart.
“I don’t know if this will happen again,” said Brooks. “So, I am taking Mr. Wynn up on his offer. Will there be something else down the road? Who knows! I’m just going to enjoy getting to turn it up in Las Vegas and play with the band again.”
