How does a "Disaster" compare to a "Meltdown Disaster"?
This doesn't qualify as a vanity since you're reporting information--not just giving your opinion. And you're right that this will go unreported elsewhere. So many thanks!
Oh no! Now Natalie Maniac won't be able to pay her plastic surgery bills
You've been here from almost the beginning and this is your first vanity? Shouldn't we be giving you some kind of award?
They didn't say it, but I assume they meant "The Theater at Madison Square Garden" (which used to be the Felt Forum) and is a much much smaller venue than the main arena.
Good.
Wacko libs buying up all the tickets, wonder if gigilo/swimmer have their front row seats yet!
The Big Media has been pushing these flimsy pricks on us for several weeks now. Here's another example of how the media no longer has any influence over us.
Thank you for posting this. It renews my faith in the average American :)
We have a very good friend who used to travel to Europe and the plush Asian countries on a regular basis before 9/11.
He would see entertainers who were losing their groove and fan base with their American audiences on tv talk shows in foriegn countries trashing America and in particuliar the election of GW in 2000.
One of his customers in Europe said the inside Euro joke was "When American entertainers trash America in Europe or Asia, they are losing or have lost their American Fan Base. They know the best and quickest way to appeal to Eurotrash fans in countries and certain Asian countries was to trash America and GW."
The Dixie Brood Hens are a classic example of that.
Are you as suprised as I am that they're doing bad in Liberalapolis?
As I went by the Tacoma Dome last night, the reader board advertised the Chick's ticket sales - for a Nov. 11 date.
Nov 11?
Veteran's day?
Ironic.
how can you tell how the tickets are selling - i just went to ticketmaster and I dont see how you can see that???? im not that techie I guess...
According to today's "American Profile" (west edition) which is like Sunday's "Parade" in answer to a Harlan, Iowa, fan's question: "What became of the Dixie Chicks since Natalie got a little crazy in Europe with her comment about the president? We are huge fans and hope they will return to the scene again."
Answer: "The Chicks released their fourth album, 'Taking the Long Way', in May. Lead singer Natalie Maines' controversial 2003 comment--about feeling 'ashamed' that President Bush was from the group's home state of Texas--and the Chicks-bashing backlash that followed are addressed in the album's first single, tellingly titled 'Not Ready to Make Nice.' Everything felt more personal this time,' Maines says. "Writing these songs and saying everything we had to say makes it possible to move on." The Grammy-winning trio will launch a worldwide tour this summer."
Hopefully, they'll stay abroad. We don't need or want them. I'm ashamed that groups like this come from the US.
Pittsburgh's in a blue state, but there are a lot of country music fans here who vote conservative, so this doesn't surprise me.
>>Boston-Almost Sold Out
blue state...though Boston's sole country station, WKLB,
is NOT playing their new album (50-50 reaction to them,
and WKLB program director says when you have a high negative like that it's best to pass on them)
well the Mediot Media gave them all the free PR they could muster...
Has any company been stupid enough to sign on as a tour sponsor? It would be commercial suicide for any company to do so.
I think the MSM will ignore the story because the FAILED comback of the dixie chix further demonstrates the impotence of the old media and the power of direct consumer to consumer communication.
That depends on where they are playing. California is not Massachusettes. California is composed of some very red counties and some blue counties that contain the large cities.
I suspect they won't do well in San Diego, Bakersfield, Fresno, or Redding. Conversely, I don't believe they will even go to San Francisco -- I doubt there are country music fans there.
They will likely do well in Los Angeles, mostly because there are 12-15 million people within driving distance of any major arena.
Obviously a different thing than to spend $9 on Amazon to make an anti-Bush statement and to spend $50 and an evening listening to their ranting.
What did they expect?
