MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- One of country music's biggest stars is only playing two shows in the U.S. this year, and both are at the Summerfest grounds.

Garth Brooks is at the American Family Insurance Amphitheater Tuesday night and Wednesday night, June 16-17, and as you probably would guess, there's some construction around Henry Maier Festival Park.
But Garth Brooks has dedicated fans who aren't letting any traffic keep them away.
"We did a run-through though," said Deborah Main, who came from Illinois. "We've been running through since 11 this morning, so we're good, we know where we're at."
Traffic wasn't bad earlier Tuesday evening, but the bigger challenge may come on Thursday, when Summerfest opens for its first of three weekends.
