I suspected a rat in soup when I first heard the history of name. They were first called "Dixie Chicken", but then changed it to "Dixie Chicks" because not enough people "got" the reference to the Little Feat/Lowell George song. I think they currently should be called "Ditzy Bolesheviks"

Dang. Now that you've gone and mentioned Little Feat, I've got that "Fat Man In The Bathtub" song going through my head.

I call them the Ditzy Twits because of the way they have screwed up their lives.

I had a friend who was into Little Feat years ago. Good music from what I remember. Didn't George die a while ago?
