Interesting too that they don't have a single song on the Billboard top 100. There are plenty of other country singers there including Randy Travis, Martina McBride, Montgomery Gentry, Tim McGraw, Chris Cagle, and others.... makes you wonder how many of their own album they had to buy to keep their Album on the Billboard #1.

NASHVILLE, TN Friday 3.28.2003 /netmusiccountdown.com/ According to their music sales on 3.28...."until last week they were averaging sales of the album HOME around 150,000 or more units per week. The boycott kicked in dropping sales of HOME by a whopping 42 % (down from 124,000 to 72,000 units sold). That means, in effect, some 52,000 record buyers, that might have visited record stores or sites to pick up a Chicks CD, stayed at home decreasing any potential collateral sales of other artists' product."

More stats to make one wonder.
