'That's horrible' - Garth Brooks gives Ireland TV show update and it's bad news

US country music star Garth Brooks has given an update to Irish fan hoping to watch his new Amazon Prime TV documentary series and it's bad news.

Garth and wife Trisha Yearwood recently released their six-part docuseries about the opening of their new bar in Nashville, the Friends In Low Places Bar and Honky Tonk.

Friends in Low Place: Building The Oasis is available on Amazon Prime television in the US, UK and other countries around the world but Irish fans have been having trouble tuning in. 

During a live Q&A with fans recently, Garth said his team would "follow up" to find out why Irish fans couldn't watch the show and this week on a similar online event, he gave an update.

When asked by an Irish fan when it might be possible to watch the show in Ireland, Garth informed them that they had an answer. 

Garth said: "We were told it's not in Ireland, Amazon Prime is not in Ireland." An assistant then added: "I guess they don't have the rights to air it there. I'm so sorry Ireland."

Rest assured, Amazon Prime is available in Ireland but the show does not appear on the platform if trying to tune in from here.

"That's horrible," Garth said, joking that he was going to "call up Amazon" to sort it out.

"I'm so sorry about that, of all places, they would love it more than any place," he added before moving on to another question.

Fans are also eagerly awaiting news on when they can watch the footage of Garth's Croke Park gigs, something that has been promised but is still in the works. He is remaining tight-lipped on that but it's expected to be this year.

When asked about it on a live video in recent weeks, he simply said: "It's going to be worth the wait. When I see it, I just cry the whole time."

"When you think about it, it's just 85,000 people that are one and this happened five nights in a row. They came there to sing. This will be the one concert you'll go, 'I can't hear Garth,' and you won't. They just swallow it up and it's fantastic," he added.

"It makes an entertainer's job very easy. For anybody that gets to play music, you're damn lucky if you get to play in Ireland and I'll be damn lucky if I get to play there again. I love that place," he added hinting at a possible return to these shores.

While not giving a specific date for the release of the footage, he added: "It's coming. The video is done. The images are done. We're in the studio right now working on the audio part of it."

He previously announced that live recordings from Croke Park would also be featured on his new live album called Killer Live. While not specifically saying which tracks from Croke Park will feature, he said, "we've got a lot of good things coming."

One hint came in a previous live video when Garth mentioned his performance of The Dance in Croke Park as a stand-out moment.

"Reliving the thought right now, I'm sitting here crying, especially The Dance," he said.

"Should anyone get through The Dance without crying, because everyone in the crowd's crying. It's great.

"The guys that captured it did a great job but the crowd, their voices. They'll do the big drone and helicopter shots and just that sound coming out of that stadium, of all those voices singing together. Man, it will rock your world."
