The hitmaker's Central Park concert -- which took place Aug. 7, 1997 -- was broadcast live on HBO. The special, \"Garth: Live from Central Park,\" was nominated for six Primetime Emmy Awards.

\"We're going to pull in to Central Park -- we'll pull back out of it during times to kind of tell you what you're thinking, what you're seeing, what you remember and then go back in,\" Brooks said. \"And we're going to relive the whole night 25 years later, but this time I get to be in the crowd and this will be fun.\"

Can you believe it's been 25 years since @garthbrooks' legendary concert in Central Park?!
