Garth Brooks to play Notre Dame Stadium…
Luke Bryan to open a bar in Nashville…


Garth Brooks announced yesterday that he will be the first act to play at Notre Dame Stadium. 
Garth said, "Notre Dame stadium has seen so many iconic moments! I look forward to bringing a new kind of crazy to the party."   
No date or other acts have been announced for the show. But Garth hinted that this show is a "blueprint" for other possible shows. 

Luke Bryan is the latest country artist to get into Nashville's Lower Broadway bar scene. 
Plans have been filed for a restaurant and entertainment complex under the name of Luke Bryan's 32 Bridge Kitchen and Bar. The venue will be located on Third Avenue and Broadway at the site of a former boot store. 
Why the name? 32 Bridge is a reference to the route 32 bridge, which crosses the Flint River in Georgia. No word on if you can get a catfish dinner!

Miranda Lambert loves making albums…
Chris Lane loves playing golf…


Many artists these days release several singles between albums, but Miranda Lambert says she will never be one of those.  
In a recent interview she said, "It’s been suggested to me lately, 'Well, you can just release a song.' It’s like they sucked all the air out of the room, because I’m too romantic about making records. I can’t change that; I’m never gonna change that."
Miranda is currently on the Band Wagon tour with Little Big Town.

Chris Lane is obsessed with golf. He never played it much until over the last few years, and he loves it so much he has a stipulation for any woman who wishes to marry him.
He says, "When I get married, that is one thing my wife has to understand is that I get to go play golf whenever I want."
Chris's new album, Laps Around the Sun comes out on July 13th.
