Rock The Vote, a movement begun by the late Patrick Lippert, will honor The Dixie Chicks for "their enduring commitment to preserving and protecting freedom of expression" this February 7th in Hollywood. Following the controversy that surrounded them last March, the Dixie Chicks partnered with Rock the Vote in July 2003 and launched Chicks Rock, Chicks Vote, an initiative to engage and empower young women to become active in the political process by voting.

Sheryl Crow will join N*E*R*D and the Black Eyed Peas as performers at the show, which will be held at the world famous Hollywood Palladium.

Rock The Vote exhorts MTV watchers to register to vote, though, looking at the list of past and current performers and honorees, one can be pretty sure where the majority of votes are aimed.

Previous Rock the Vote honorees include: Neil Young, Wyclef Jean, Sting, Bono, R.E.M., Pearl Jam, Sheryl Crow, Beastie Boys, Peter Gabriel, President Bill Clinton, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton and Aaron Sorkin.

Dixie Chicks????


Who are they?

[petitfour]

Chicks Rock? I thought they played the banjo and fiddle. Hardly a rock group.

Chicks crack? Chicks cluck?

[freekitty]

Geez, are these brainless wonders still around?

[isatoi]

blah blah blah....... "their enduring commitment to preserving and protecting freedom of expression"

I guess bashing your Commander in Chief is to be rewarded now??? GGGGGGGRrrrrrrrrr

Ms Crow has been trying to remake her image into a singer/songwriter in the folk and country vein. She's reportedly moved to Nashville and is getting heavy airplay on the more liberal VH1 Country . THis will not help her cause.

On the major station here in Atlanta, they have not played them AT ALL in over a year. There has been no backlash by their "fans" as they don't seem to have many here anymore. Free speech is not consequence free. You have to live with the reactions of those around you and you better have the ba*** and the strength of character to live with that and not WHINE about it.

which will be held at the world famous Hollywood Palladium.

Never heard of it.

[STFrancis]

You must not have heard that they said they were NO LONGER considered a country group. They consider themselves rock now since the country scene abondened them....

[hilaryrhymeswithrich]

One of my husband's former bandmates toured with her about ten years ago. Drunken slut was about the extent of his comments about her after being trapped on tour with her for months, and he was not exactly a saint himself. Yuck.

Just remember this the next time Rock the Vote claims it's "non-partisan."

What a bunch of vainglorious excrement.

"their enduring commitment to preserving and protecting freedom of expression"???

Oh Puhleeez!

So the Dixie Chisks live in a democratic Western nation and spoke out against their government. Whoop-de-doo!

Try doing it in some totalitarian communist hellhole. Then I'll be impressed!
