The songs that Garth Brooks performs at his show tonight (3/23) on Facebook Live will be based on requests from fans and will also feature his wife Trisha Yearwood. Brooks said, “We’ll try and get as many in as we possibly can,” he says. “We’ll do an hour…30 minutes or an hour. We’ll do our best depending on what the setlist is.”

Trisha also took to her Facebook Saturday saying in part, "He and I are…doing some rehearsing this weekend.”

She added, “I’ve been watching other people’s videos,” she said. “I love that everybody’s kind of reaching out and just connecting. And I think that we will have a new normal, but I think that it’s going to be a normal of realizing how important these personal connections are. God bless you guys. And Garth and I will see you on Monday night.”

Trisha also shared memories of Kenny Rogers who she said she first saw in concert when she was in high school.

Garth posted to Instagram over the weekend, "Monday night at 7pm ET the Queen and I are playing your requests during #StudioG! Post your song requests below and let’s let music connect us during this disconnected time! It’s house cleaning ALL NIGHT LONG #GarthRequestLive !!! love, g"
