FULLY CLOTHED OR TOTALLY NUDE, CHICKS STILL WHISTLING DIXIE (chiclets obit)

NY POST ^ | April 26, 2003 | letters column

Dixie Sluts conveniently undressed for the occasion.

Nekkid Natalie? I think not. Unless they took here somewhere for an emergency liposuction. They paid a good looking girl to pose & pasted her head on the pic. The Sally Struthers look-alike fat skank should have said she was ashamed to be a Texan, because everything is bigger there. And the up close shot didn't do the other two mares any favors in the face department. Sort of that pulled out horse face look, similar to Ketchup Boy Kerry's.

Itelligence is obviously not one of the Dixie Chicks finer points.

[ZULU]

Any "artist" whose main clientele consists of Country and western people, and who then goes out and attacks America has got to the world's worst fools.

Dixiechicks are in the same bunch of losers as that prostitute Madonna, Cher, and the other brainless, clueless idiots who think their ability to amuse people translates into foreign policy knowledge. I bet most of them never read a history book.

Nice, very nice, deconstruction.

[Liz]

Gotcha.

Please check out this singer/songwriter.... Anni Clark. I know her. I met her Friday night at her concert at Mucky Duck in Houston.  She is from Maine but I met her while she was touring Texas, which she does every April with Shake Russell and Dana Cooper on the Bluebonnet Tour. Her website is at www.AnniClark.com

You can listen to clips of her CDs there and follow directions to order her music if you like it. I just got BIG WATER and A LIGHT FOR LIZA yesterday and both CDs are just awesome. Her songs paint a picture in your head. You "see" what she is singing about. At her concert Friday night she did not say anything political. If she has strong opinions one way or the other she doesn't offend the audience with ugly comments about USA or Bush, like the Ditsie Sluts did. That is how I think an entertainer should behave, just ENTERTAIN! That is what they are paid for. Her voice is a cross between Joni Mitchell and Anne Murray. Her guitar talent is unbelievable. They don't teach those techniques in guitar lessons, she has developed some tricks of her own on the guitar. On the CDs she has some other singers with her and it sounds even better than she did in person. The voices she has on the CD with her blend with hers just beautifully and compliment her voice, too.

My favorites so far are Something About the Moonlight and Bobby Burns on BIG WATER and Whatever Happened to Liza on A LIGHT FOR LIZA.  Bobby Burns is a song about burning a photo of an ex boyfriend.  It was so funny, loved that song.  I used to call him Bobby, but now I call him "Bobby Burns!"  Great tune!  Who hasn't gotten rid of old photos or love letters from an ex-lover?

At the end of the concert she said of her last song "The Dixie Chicks might record that one?" The audience had some faint BOOs but mostly dead silence. THIS IS HOUSTON TEXAS! Then she said "Maybe Wynona will record it" Then she said "Why Not, Wynona" Then she said "That sounds like a song, WHY NOT, WYNONA? She said she was going to write that song that night when she got home. They say she can write a song very quickly.

Forget the chickies and tune in on Anni Clark.   You'll be glad you did!

Nice take.

[Jhoffa_]

They are going to shut up and disrobe?

I can deal wtih that..

[Aeronaut]

...Janeane Garafalo naked ...

Eeeeeeeeeeeewwww!

[Liz]

They don't call her Natalie Nitwit for nothing.

[ncweaver]

The more the clueless "DITSY" Chicks talk, the bigger hole they dig for themselves. If they want any fans left at all, they should just sing and forget the interviews. In fact, they need to forget speaking at all.

[Guenevere]

#14..Well said!

[KCrouch]

Putupon is observant! I'd add that SERIOUS airbrushing (or total head/body paste-ons)were the only way this silly photo could spring forth on the public. These self-absorbed bimbos are not in the body sculpted crowd.

[ncweaver]

One of them mentioned that their Grandmother was upset over all of this negative publicity. Wonder if they were concerned about their little Grandmother's feelings when they posed for this picture?

[wallcrawlr]

So lets see here...

You better watch out because if I say something stupid and you dont like I am going to get naked for you.


Can I make a request?

[MadIvan]

They are making a critical mistake - rather than be silent and let the wave of criticism wash over them, they are continuing to make their opposition to President Bush the defining issue of their career. In the final analysis, people want a band that concentrates on music, not on politics.

Maines does not look like that picture on the front cover....maybe she did 4 years ago...but not now.

[Dick Vomer]

Oh my God.... that's a name from the past.. Shake Russel... and Dana... I've got an album of theirs that is recorded live from a radio station... some of the best songs.."You've got a Lover", "Deep in the West", "Texas my friend".... saw them last in Dallas at a small club in Lower Greenville avenue... back in 1983. Jeeezzzz I'm getting old..hahaha

My suggestion for the first greeting to aliens:

"We are ashamed to come from the same planet as the Dixie Chicks."
