I still kinda dig their music. Flame away....

wrong house. 4 doors up.

Hell yes we are still mad. I haven't listened to a single second of their music since day one of their huge mistake. And never will.

Never badmouth family in front of strangers. Unforgivable pandering.

Meh. Who cares. Great song, well written.

I'm a guy so I never listened to them in the first place

I thought they were ashamed to be Americans?

We're supposed to forgive that, just because they make music?

No, they were ashamed that the President was from Texas if I recall correctly.

Their 15 minutes were up 15 years ago.

The fact that no one clamored for their return when Obama came into office shows that their "popularity" from trashing their country was because liberals (who don't even listen to country music in the first place) were just using them for political reasons.

They went on a public news tour telling everyone that basically they used country music fans to gain money. They thought country music fans were trash people. So to me I think that's what caused more long lasting damage than the initial incident.

"Alex, I will take 'People I haven't thought of in 15 years ' for a thousand, please."

This was back before trump when liberals were civil and respected republican presidents



Oh wait

Let's be honest here. Who here has NOT thought of being a country star just to make some cash?

The music is easy to ridiculously easy to play. I am a drummer and know a few chords on guitar. Native Texan and have a deep voice. I write fairly well and have a string of failed relationships, love animals, have the utmost respect for our Ag industry, service to country, accent that gets more profound on bourbon, and am not hideous to look at.

I could be making dozens of dollars!

My indifference to them knows no bounds.

People are free to boycott anyone they like, for any reason they want to. The thing that differentiated the Dixie Chicks situation was that it was clearly a well orchestrated campaign to destroy their careers, a reaction that was a little bit over the top as far I was concerned.

Yeah, the Chicks were completely innocent and didn't do anything that warranted a backlash from their fans at all.....
....oh, wait. They did. And their fans abandoned them into the trash heap of washed-up losers where they belong.

I'm trying to think of a conservative entertainer that I might have boycotted in protest of something they said or did

Well, maybe not entertainer, but the list of businesses and citizens that have had a "clearly well orchestrated campaign to destroy their careers" because of their conservative values is huge these last few years. Huge.

How many bakers, restaurants, MAGA-hat wearing teenagers and chicken sandwich franchises have had orchestrated smear campaigns perpetuated by leftist social media and their lapdog mainstream media outlets since Trump got elected?

I'll give you a hint: it's more than one group of trailer trash country singers.

So, yeah.....no one's buying this BS you're trying to sell that it's all just mean ol' conservatives trashing careers in this country and that liberals are free-thinking progressives.

If you pay attention to, and really care what artists have to say about anything other than their particular skill, then you are as dumb as they are. Never was mad at them and I enjoy the slight bluegrass influence they bring into their music.

I only care what Ja Rule thinks.

Dixie Chicken > Dixie Chicks

NOT READY TO MAKE NICE EITHER DIXIE CHUMPS!
