Robert Earl Keen perhaps?

So, celebrities who voice their opinions like Mr. Tritt and Charlie Daniels are ok and should be allowed to speak?

"The best way to get an entertainer's attention is to hit them in their pocketbooks," he said.

Perhaps this is what he was hoping for, but FReepers could all go out and by a Travis Tritt CD.

Shalom.

Just for that I logged onto Amazon.com and ordered three Travis Tritt CDs. You can buy them HERE.

Sorry, bad link. Just go to amazon.com and search for Travis Tritt in popular music.

I knew I liked him from the beginning.
I had a good feeling he was not a phoney

I have noticed that pop recording artists are far less immune to backlash than the Hollywood elite (i.e. Martin Sheen). I wonder why...?

So, celebrities who voice their opinions like Mr. Tritt and Charlie Daniels are ok and should be allowed to speak?

These celebreties get their platforms and microphones paid for by their fans. Their fans certainly can decide what they say with those platforms.

If you don't like it, go sponsor a concert.

Shalom.

For shame, ladies!! Can't someone post a pic???

[countrydummy]

excellent idea!

[TXBubba]

Robert Earl King usually satisfies my country side

We like Robert Earl King also. Think we are going to miss him at the rodeo this year though. :(

If the Dixie Chicks really wanted to do something to prove just how sorry they are about those statements, they would volunteer to go and perform at some military base," suggested Tritt.

Ok, if they will do the USO tour, I'll forgive.

Lucky you!

[Afronaut]

I don't care about ANY Celebs or their opinions.

GulfWar1Vet your opinion is much more important to me that Travis Tritt's. They should shut up and sing!

Travis rules....always did. Like his "Great Day to Be Alive" video when hes riding his big buckskin horse. Now that is hot!

[countrydummy]

Thanks, I was working on copying some pics, but this one will do just fine!!!!!!!!!!!

[countrydummy]

[countrydummy]

Interesting statement, care to explain so I won't decide that you have an agenda?

"If the Dixie Chicks really wanted to do something to prove just how sorry they are about those statements, they would volunteer to go and perform at some military base," suggested Tritt.

Ummmm...I don't think this is a good idea.

That comment will give his career a needed boost....
