He’s got Friends in Low Place, and in the nose bleeds. Garth Brooks has sold over 100,000 tickets for Edmonton’s Commonwealth Stadium.

Brooks was originally planning to perform just one concert in Edmonton, but with tickets selling out in 45 minutes, he decided to add a second show.

Tickets are still available but they have been hard to come by. Some third-party sites have Garth Brooks tickets listed for upwards of 10 times the original cost.

The concerts will be Friday, June 24 and Saturday, June 25.
