It did tick me off to no end when they insulted our President on foreign soil, and I was done with them at that point. But I think what really did it for those "well, she does have a right to say what she wants, this is America" country folks is when she insulted country music listeners by stating they didn't want the kind of fans that had a Dixie Chicks CD in the changer with Reba and Toby Keith. I just shook my head and said "stupid, stupid woman - their goes what's left of your career".

Confirmed once and for all that the Chicks didn't want to keep the fans they had. That's suicide in the music business, IMHO. Some artists cross genres to win new fans; that's cool. But you just don't alienate your existing fans and then go looking for others to replace them. Generally, such a tactic doesn't work.
More like to accommodate lack of demand.
Liberals bought the album for "solidarity".
They sit in their CD racks, unopened.
Yeah, Laura should sue them. :-)
The funny thing about all the "solidarity" purchases...
They fooled the Chix into thinking they still had fans. Had they not done so, the DC might have been able to reconstruct their tour beforehand a lot easier.
...at the point of a gun.
And if you are a Freeper and you go to the concert, don't post a thread about it here if you don't want to be flamed!!!
Wow. Since when did "Several" mean 14? I thought several was the numerical no man's land between "a couple" and "half a dozen." That's the most shocking news in this entire article.
Trust me, the sisters are just as nasty as Nat.
Folk musicians do not have #1 albums and they don't live in gated mansions.
LOL. I was pretty sure that business was not their forte. Thanks for additional proof.
The Chicks already played here in Pittsburgh. I didn't pay attention at the time, but I looked up the concert review in the local liberal rag. Apparently, half the seats in the house (Mellon Arena) were empty. *Snicker*
I hate to be the bearer of bad news friend but it should be obvious that you do not have one freedom that the government can not take from you, unless your freedom is in JESUS CHRIST.....
Guess what, Natty Fatty Cowpatty?
We're not "ready to make nice" either.
LOL
>>Fortunately, or unfortunately...however one chooses to look at it.....it ain't over till it's over.
Or in other words....the end of the book isn't written yet.<<
The fat lady has sung.
Face it. It's over.
LOL!!
No! You must look at the bigger picture - if patrons see that the Ditzies are performing, they'll stay out on the casino floor and continue their WCP (Wampum Contribution Program)...
Neither is public speaking! :D
Ha! Touche.
And yet...that does not stop them either.
