THE DITZY CHICKS - LIVE FROM PARIS

[CollegeRepublican]

I just bought the George Strait Live Performance from the Houston Astrodome that was recorded at last year's Houston Rodeo. George H. bush was there and apparently George and George are friends. It is a great CD.

It is really sad that the Dixie Chicks are so liberal. They are good musicians. Too bad the political sides of their brains do not perform as well as the musical sides.

I was there at Reliant last night for the final Rodeo 03 show with Alabama.

At one point, a photo of the Ditzie's flashed across the stream, setting off thunderous "BOO's" across the stadium...awesome!

Then, a procession of dignitaries on horesback and wagons came in. Surprise guest was Pres George Bush, 41! The crowd went nuts!!

These Chicks have just crapped in their nest!

Serious nice rant.

However, I believe that people can support the troops and not the war. There are mothers everywhere who would rather have their courageous sons and daughters deployed in peace times. There are mothers everywhere who are supportive of both their children in the service and are rah-rah-ing about the war as well. Few have yet to see their kids arrive home in boxes (or the more efficient bags that have been purchased this time). When that happens, the mothers will be proud of their child's efforts to keep freedom and know their children died for a just cause. That pride must carry them through the rest of their life as they miss their children and think of what might have been as they ponder the grandchildren they will never have. That is a kind of heartache no one can know unless it is lived. And it stinks.

And another thing that stinks . . . Don't waste your money on seeing ANYONE in Reliant Stadium. The acoustics reek in a grand and memorable fashion.

Statement from Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks

"As a concerned American citizen, I apologize to President Bush because my remark was disrespectful. I feel that whoever holds that office should be treated with the utmost respect. We are currently in Europe and witnessing a huge anti-American sentiment as a result of the perceived rush to war. While war may remain a viable option, as a mother, I just want to see every possible alternative exhausted before children and American soldiers' lives are lost. I love my country. I am a proud American."

First she panders left... then she panders right.

BUMP!!

[John Jorsett]

This has to be one of the dumbest moves ever. Their career is going to do a "Challenger-like re-entry" as P.J. O'Rourke put it recently. I also noticed a sudden flurry of posing of Dixie Chick music to alt.binaries.sounds.mp3 too. I infer that either those who approve of her remarks are putting the songs up, or detractors are sabotaging the group by making their songs available for free. Probably a combination of both, although the former people aren't exactly doing the group a favor by giving away the Chicks' product.

[Samwise]

Chicks’ lead singer Natalie Maines made to a packed London audience that she was “embarrassed” that George W. Bush was from Texas.

I understand how she feels. I am embarrassed that I used to like the Dixie Chicks.

Maines was blown away by the landslide at home.

"'Till the landslide brought me down"

How prophetic. Their own hit foretold their demise.

[theDentist]

Their apology is sorely lacking. I'd have been more impressed if the other two immediately stated "Pay no mind to the dim-wit singing the songs. We just gave her a severe dope-slapping."

I was at our local Sams Club looking at CD's and noticed seferal empty CD slots on the shelf, then in the middle of all the empty CD slots was two completely full slots of Dixie Chicks CD's. I thought isn't that interesting as I reached past the Dixie Chicks CD's and pulled out a Kenny Chesney CD and headed to the register. Maybe the Dixie Chicks could get all grungy and start playing that angry female music like Alanis Morrisette, that croud would accept them for what they are.
