Dateline: Greensboro, NC
American Idol star Chris Daughtry returned for a coming home celebration in McLeansville, North Carolina. On Saturday, June 3, he performed a few songs at the McLeansville shopping center and then with his band ABSENT ELEMENT at Jamieson Stadium in Greensboro.
But there is a part of the story that you probably didn't read. The show was hosted on stage by CLASSIC ROCK 92, an FM station in Greensboro.
Among the announcements made by the DJs was that they would be giving away tickets to the upcoming concert by the Dixie Chicks. When that announcement was made, there was substantial booing from the crowd. It was a pleasure to be there in person and hear it. Greensboro says no to fifth columnists.
I swear this day has been one for the books. Great News, now only if the Mavs would GO TO THE HOOP! Go Mavs!
Gee, they're giving away tickets and the announcement was boo'd..I'm going to run to CNN and wait for them to have this story on the air..how long do you think I should wait??
Amen on the Mavs, but they have their work cut out for them. As far as the chix are concerned, PI$$ on them..
Up next, 2 Dixie Chicks tickets with every bucket of KFC.
Just piss on 'em without the $$ signs as far as I'm concerned.
thanks for the report! And in more Vichy Chix concert news---

p.s. -- how was Chris?
The Mavs SHOULD win because they were the last remaining team to have the widsom to have a player from the University of Arizona (former All American Jason Terry). Most of the teams in the last 15 years who have won the Title have had at least one (and sometimes two). On that basis alone, I'll have to say: Go Mavs.
Gee, piss of your base, the people who work for a living, and the expect them to GIVE you money...
Gosh, they sound like W!
Don't get me wrong, GWB is the right man, in the right office, at a critically right time, BUT... don't piss off your base...
Oh, sorry! I thought you asked how long you will wait.
noted!
Thanks for the info, DFU!
I am so embarassed that the Ditzy Tits are so anti-American that I want to apologize to President Bush for their ever being in Texas.
Well just don't hold your breath!
I bet Natalie is such a Side Hog!
could someone please explain to me what a fifth columnist is?
Dilemma: If I won the tickets, would I say "no thanks" and walk away? Or would I accept them and not go to the concert so there would be extra empty seats? I don't know - decisions decisions.
P.S. I like the Mavericks too
I expect to see the Ditzy Twits performing during a fund raising drive ; soon.
I say...take the tickets and go. Hold up a Pro-Bush sign during the concert. Wear your Bush/Cheney shirt too. Maybe with all of that you can get air time then LET EM HAVE IT!!!!!
