Garth Brooks signs with Wal-Mart?

Sad but true. All Garth Brooks albums will now have to be bought at Wal-Mart. The two signed a multi-year deal and Wal-Mart, or Sams Club, are the only stores you’ll be able to get the CDs. Granted, no new albums are coming out for years. He’s taking time off until his youngest is 18 […]
