\"No lasers, no trapeze, no nothing -- that's for other shows in Vegas,\" he continued. \"For us, we just focus on the music. The people come in, they sing, they kind of take it over. And the next thing you know, you don't know what the next song is -- nobody's got control of the ship. But wherever you're going, you're going there together and you're having a good time doing it. So that's the fun of it.\"

While appearing on \"GMA\" the singer also spoke about his new radio station, Tailgate Radio, which will bring a wide variety of music genres to fans during the 2023 college football season.

Brooks said the station, which will be hosted by Maria Taylor, allows listeners to \"take the weekend off.\"

\"For any football game, any pool party, kids soccer parties, just playing around poker with your buddies on the weekend, you just say, 'Hey Alexa, play Tailgate Radio on TuneIn,'\" he said. \"All the sudden here comes your party mix, with over 2,500 songs on their list -- you're never going to hear the same one twice, but they're all gonna be upbeat.\"

The station will also feature celebrity and athlete guest host takeovers.

Brooks previously launched The BIG 615, hosted by Storme Warren and part of his SEVENS Radio network, in June.

\"What we want to do is we want to take country music global,\" Brooks told \"GMA.\" \"The country music audience [is the] most loving, loyal audience you can ever have. We pull all them together around the world.\"
