“If you come to Las Vegas, you’ll see Garth and a guitar. But when you come to Nashville in December you will see the band you know, you will see the light rig that you know, you will see the stage you know, and, hopefully, you will see the best Garth Brooks show you’ve ever seen,” he said, according to Reuters.

May’s flood caused more than $2 billion in damage in Nashville alone, and there was widespread damage throughout middle Tennessee.

Proceeds from the Dec. 17 concert will go to the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee to provide relief to families who are still struggling after the flood.
