WKIS FM in Miami reported it pulled "Not Ready to Make Nice" due to listener complaints after only one week.

A Reno country station took a listener poll prior to the release. From the results they are continuing their ban on this band.

Actions have consequences. Maines is perfectly free to run her mouth, and the rest of us are free to ignore her and her "music".

Are videos from new album running on Country Music Television?

If country radio's cold reception to the DCs holds up, look for Faith Hill, hubby and other C&W Demos to just shut up and sing, leaving brain surgery to the surgeons.

This military family ain't going to make nice with the Dixie Chicks. They're lots of fun to watch as they destroy themselves, however.

Couldn't say. I'll look it up later when I have more time.

"Maines is perfectly free to run her mouth, and the rest of us are free to ignore her and her "music"."

Exactly.

I saw that the DCs were scheduled to be on Letterman last night. Dunno. Didn't watch.

It seems that Letterman's show only exists for the purpose of promoting various flagging artists and productions that can't make it on their own.

He probably had "compassion" for the chicks.

Well, it was clear from tonight's award show that the Dixie Chicks have burnt their bridges with the Country Music community. Lol!

The first single, "Not Ready to Make Nice," only peaked at No. 36 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart and the second single, "Everybody Knows," is moving downward after its peak at No. 48.

Natalie Maines' marketing skills are matched only by her geopolitical astuteness.
