Garth Brooks sat down with Billboard Country, and he told them something scary. The Country singer wants to bring back his Rock alter-ego Chris Gaines.
“The Gaines project was a lot of time put in — because it’s not natural, you’re acting on a record — but I want to do it simply for people who love the Gaines project,” Brooks said of re-adopting the alter-ego. “And selfishly, I love the Chris Gaines record, so I want to do it for me. It challenged me as a vocalist. So I don’t know when we’re going to get to it, but it’s on the list.”
Brooks introduced us to Gaines in 1999, and it went as well as New Coke or Jar Jar Binks. So I hope his friends in low (high places) convince him not to do it. Because I don’t think anyone wants to be reminded of that failure.

Why not be all of the above? Heck, if Dolly can make a rock album, if Data and Lore can combine into one android (Picard S3:E9), why can’t Garth and Gaines co-exist?
