Seems like I heard the other two defending Natalie Maines, but if they have now decided to push the chick from the nest, so be it. Let's see how well they all do. Natalie can't make it as a soloist, and the other two didn't do so well before Natalie joined them. Interesting.
I'm not sure Natalie is smart enough to figure it out. Back before she opened her big mouth there were rumors that she wanted to go solo but there wasn't any interest. The gNatty one probably thinks the publicity is good for her. She really is clueless.
I think the sisters were afraid of her. Ever see the way she would stare at them during interviews? Once this all dies down the sisters will probably be able to get session work. But the better days are behind them I think.
