There’s a great article on the Dixie Chicks fracas from Dave White at MSNBC. The gist is that if you were offended by what Natalie Maines said in London three years ago and are still carting a grudge even though now a majority of Americans now agree with her, well, tough noogies!
As much as their new CD “Taking the Long Way†initially left me cold with it’s more adult contemporary sound, the lyrics and the defiant spirit has me coming back to listen to it again and again. I even plunked down a hefty fee to see the Chicks at Madison Square Garden this August.
