#1 Conclusion: My big mouth cost us money. I gotta find somebody else to blame.

#2 The only dixie chick I am interested in happens to be one from the local KFC fryer. The so-called music group of the same name sounds like a bunch of long tailed cats with their tails caught under a rocking chair.

#3 Matthews: "Good luck, good luck with this movie. I guess this movie`s favorable or you wouldn`t be out here pushing it. Thanks for joining us."

No, Chris, it's a hatchet job on them. That's why they're on your anemically watched show plugging it.
What a friggin idiot...

#4 So I'm blacklisting them too by buying a new CD of Rodrigo's (spanish) classical music?

Hah!

I still think Larry the Cable Guy has the ultimate verdict:

"That little fat one needs to watch her mouth. Hey Natalie, your fan base is country music lovers. These are the most religious and patriotic people in the country. You might as well have gone to a trailer park with a magaphone and hollered, Jesus and Walmart Suck! ... If it weren't for them other two cute musician sisters, she'd just be selling clothes at a Lane Bryant in somewhere in Nashville"

#6 If these chicks are so smart, why did they have to steal the title to Laura Ingrams' book, Shut Up And Sing, as the title for their "documentary"? Maybe it should have been: "Shut up and Think".

#7 Or just, "Shut up"...

#8 I was a BIG fan of the Chicks until Natalie opened her pie hole. Yes she has every right to her opinion and I have every right NOT to buy her music. Larry the cable Guy had it right.

#12 Actually, the two pretty ones were about on the way to needed to sell clothes in a Lane Bryant (in other words, they were a moderately successful bluegrass act, which isn't a living wage) until they replaced their old singer with Maines and major labels started to take interest.

None of that justifies her foolish and naive politics, but the business story is what it is.

#13 You're looking a little bare, ust sayin. Have you misplaced a few critical letters... or are you of Scandanavian descent? ;-)

#14 All depends then on what you want: borderline success from your musical talent, or whoring yourself out politically.

Personally, Alison Kraus is a far better dinger - and Toby Keith was right to criticise them about being performers and not musicians. The quote I heard was something like "Tell Natalie to call me when she *writes* a couple #1 songs".

Snark!
