Brooks is now playing a second show at Regina’s Mosaic Stadium on Friday, Aug. 9 after tickets to his Saturday, Aug. 10 concert sold out in less than an hour.The country superstar’s only Canadian dates overlap with two nights of the Regina Folk Festival, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary that weekend.

Colter Wall, who will take the RFF main stage in Victoria Park the Saturday night, wrote on Twitter that “the City of Regina is blatantly fucking over Folk Fest this year by having him play during the same weekend.”

While he didn’t want to “get too heated about” Brooks, he called the scheduling “Pretty damn disrespectful.”

The City of Regina declined to comment.
