Ketterer was arrested for an altercation he had with his wife at a hotel. Brooks announced on his online show that they’d both decided that it was best for Ketterer to not appear.

On Monday, during Garth Brooks’ Inside Studio G Facebook Live show, the country legend revealed that Michael Ketterer, 41, wouldn’t be at his upcoming show. The “America’s Got Talent” contestant had placed fifth on season 13.

Brooks, 56, spoke about the October 20, sold-out show saying:

“Called him this weekend, we talked. We decided it was better that he not appear at Notre Dame and not perform there. That family will figure it out and find it within themselves, and of course the good Lord, and figure it out. Michael Ketterer will not be at Notre Dame.”

Besides writing a song for him, Brooks invited him to perform at his concert saying:

“We’re going to suit you up with a band. We’re going to put you out in front of 85,000 of the sweetest people you’ve ever played for before, and they’re going to be pulling for you like no other. This is going to be good.”

Ketterer was extremely excited that he was going to sing with his music icon. During an episode of “America’s Got Talent” he said:

“I’m going to fall out of this speaker they have me sitting on right now. I feel like what happened is beyond what I thought or imagined.”
