CHICKS' ALBUM UP ON ALL-GENRE CHART

As the Dixie Chicks launch their U.S. tour still feeling the effects of a controversial one-liner seven weeks ago, their album "Home" jumps from No. 33 to No. 23 on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart.

The only thing I have too much of today is time! Google is good.

If you were to look at my music collection you wouldn't see any Country (except the Grateful Dead's version of 'El Paso'), or pop chicks (Unless Joni Mitchell counts).

OTOH... that perv thing might be fun, where do I sign up?

I don't know but let us all know how it works out!

What did you expect them to do?  They're a business, not a band.

True, but there are a few artists out there that will stick to their "political" guns... even when pressed.

Very few in the country music buisness.  Its a matter of knowing your customer base.

And Syz... artists these days make a majority of their money off of the concerts.  Unless they produce their own albums... they don't make much there.  The live performances are were the big bucks come from.

The comment was misguided and played to the audience at the time.  Someone miscalculated how warmly it would be received by the customer base on the other side of the ocean.

Really not much more to it than that.

That is exactly right.  She was playing to the audience.

Dixie Chicks are okay. I'm a little disappointed in them for backpedaling.

Amazing what people will do in the name of the almighty dollar bill.  I was pissed at Fatty for what she said... I began to question "thier" motives when they apologized.  When they did the nude cover for Ent weekly (as much as I enjoyed it) I lost ALL respect I ever had or could have had for the Dixie Ho's (and I really did like'em for thier abilities as musicians).  They have noodles for spines.
