Just came across screen that the Dixie Chicks concert at Gund arena is cancelled. Amazing isn't it that they cancelled one hour before curtain? What do you think?

Must have been the 14 fried chickens Natalie downed before showtime.

I think thats..."4 fried chickens and a coke."

i hope it wasn't a bomb threat - that would suck.

Would they shut down for a bomb threat? That only encourages the hoaxers.

Due to the illness of one of the girls and doctor's orders, tonight's Dixie Chicks concert has been re-scheduled for June 11th.

Sure, we all knew Natalie Mains had Hoofin' Mouth Dis-Ease!!!

Heard on the local Cleveland news this morning that Natalie Maines begged off at the last minute with a sore throat. A number of people were pi$$ed off that they couldn't get parking refunds - some paid up to twenty bucks for parking!

In Natalie's case, it was 14 Fried Chickens and a Diet Coke.

And I don't remember church bells
or the money I put down
On the white picket fence with board walk
for the house at the end of town.

But boy do I remember
the strain of her refrain...


None of us should forget what natalie said.

This isn't very nice. Just because she can't keep her stupid blow-hole shut doesn't mean people have the right to harpoon her.

hehe! What she said about President Bush was VERY offensive to a LOT of Texans and a LOT of her paying customers. She is an 'entertainer'. She chose to make a political statement. Let the Chimps fall where they may !! :O)

Picking on Natalie Maines is not funny. She has a serious case of barnacles and this can be painful. She also has a bad case of indigestion and is burping up krill and plankton.
Have a heart.

Any idiot who pays $20 for parking deserves what they get. There's plenty of free street parking (for the time being) near the Gund Arena. You just might have to *gasp* walk several blocks.

Put together with other things, you have to wonder if the real reason is that they didn't sell enough tickets

For a sold out show?

Something extra interesting is that on the radio today I heard this announcement: " Due to a stage configuration change, there are now seats available for tonights Dixie Chicks concert at the Gund Arena"

Not interesting. Happens all the time w/large shows. Arenas block off certain sections of seats to ticket sales until they can see exactly how the stage, etc will be assembled or how it is assembled.

When they figure it out, they release tickets for those areas where they now know fans' views won't be obstructed.

If you're on the ball, being aware of this is actually a great way to score last-minute tickets for sold-out shows.

Maybe they couldn't find their way from the dressing room to the stage.

They're probably still trying to figure out why the maintenance man wanted them to "jog".

I got this off the cyanide network website:

"Natalie is not feeling very well. Her throat has some damage to it," Robison said. "She's sick right now and the doctor said, 'If you sing tonight, you're just going to make it worse."
