It's over. The fat lady has sung...
oh this is rich...
The National Enquirer is a source for news at the Free Republic now ?
Well I guess if we let the New York Times in we have to let them in too ;-)
Na na na na, na na na na, hey hey, goodbye.....
Their only good song was their break-in hit, anyway.
The author of this piece is definitely trying to put some lipstick on this pig. I bet the group has never recovered from Natalie’s idiot mouth.
It’s because Natalie’s going solo. Their last album wasnt even a Chicks album, it was a pop-rock Natalie solo disc. What use does she have for a fiddle and banjo player?
It’s the Justin Timberlake/Gwen Stefani syndrome; As soon as the lead singer realizes they’re the ones selling all the discs, they get a little sick of splitting royalies with the back-up singers that no one really cares about.
I really hope Country can get a handle on the radio audience and sales implosion they’ve been going thru over the last few years. A lot of big country labels are sucking so much cash out of the rap and rock end of the conglom’s profit machine to stay afloat, you’ve gotta think a few of them are going to get shuttered pretty soon.
ya’know I always wondered if Martie Maguire and Emily Robison were dragged reluctantly into Natalie Maines’ political tsunami.
True a couple of them have got up to the double ax handle size.
Get on your bikes and ride!

They’ve cut and run from the quagmire that is their entertainment career as a “group”.
But that can’t be! VH1 said that they were back and better than ever with their “Not Ready to Make Nice” tour. And how concert goers were flocking to their tours! And the CDs were practically flying out of the stores! And when Interviewed in Playboy, they were the most important thing to happen to the First Amendment since... Well, since the Declaration of Independence!

The Dixie Chicks are suffering their own, self-inflicted fate. Entertainers can not and should not insult the people who put the money in their pockets. I will not miss them; they insulted me and my country. As an aside, I might add that that lead singer, Natalie Maines, must be quite a stupid person, indeed.
