Um, given that all three are married, have multiple children, have sold over 20 million records and have made more money than anyone on this site, I think its a fair guess that they weren't really looking for an extended career into their mid 30's. They have setteld down and want a family life.

Half their fan base was young girls anyway. This "boycott" nonsense consists mostly of people who didn't listen to them/like them in the first place and a small portion of their fan base. I doubt they care what anyone here thinks.

No, I can't. Not in this case, anyway. This is a "canned" apology, not a real one at all. Just an attempt to make you THINK they are listening to you (and it looks like it worked, judging from the premature expressions of elation on this thread).

The Dixie Chicks' career will depend on how many CDs they sell, how many concert tickets, etc. Not on what a bunch of FReepers think.

Take a shot of reality. The fact is that this is more than likely one salvo in a long war.

Too many people expect instant gratification.
