Wal-Mart Wal-Mart shoppers got a little something extra Tuesday as they cruised the aisles for bargains: a Garth Brooks concert. The country singer marked the release of a new album, ``Garth Brooks Double Live,'' with an hourlong concert in Los Angeles that was beamed exclusively to 2,300 Wal-Mart stores in the United States and Canada. ``Very cool,'' said Brooks after opening the concert with energetic ``Callin' Baton Rouge,'' the first song on the new album. Brooks said ``Hey,'' to Wal-Mart customers watching around the country. ``No doubt, we're in L.A., but tonight it is `Hello, America.' '' The album went on sale Tuesday at Wal-Mart and other music outlets. Brooks, 36, was hoping to sell 1 million albums and break Pearl Jam's one-day sales record. The group sold 950,378 copies of the album ``Vs'' the day it debuted in 1993. Brooks has sold more albums than any other country artist in history, and 20 percent of those 82 million albums were purchased at Wal-Marts. Every Wal-Mart at least tuned all the televisions in its electronics department to the Brooks concert, but many took the promotion further. Some stores staged karaoke and Brooks look-alike contests.
