Garth Brooks says he'd love to play five concerts at Croke Park in 2022 but claims it's impossible.
Dublin City Council has granted permission for all five gigs to go-ahead next September.

The singer is in Dublin promoting the two gigs announced for September 9th and 10th next year.
"I'd love to do five, but I'd also love to be six-foot-five and have abs," said Brooks at Croke Park this morning.

Tickets go on sale on Thursday.
The singer has described the cancellation of five gigs at Croker in 2014 as like a death in the family.
"What happened in 2014 was a freaking miracle. I mean, who does numbers like that," he said in reference to selling Croke Park out for five nights seven years ago.
