Chicks in the Feisty Woodshed
The Dixie Chicks just make me tired and yawny these days. Their music has become boring and absolutely indistinguishable from the rest of the bland sonic gruel that fills the playlist of any soft-rock radio station. Normally, a group in that situation would get back to what made them successful: making quality music.
Instead, the Dixie Chicks have decided that the reason they’re not selling albums like they used to is because their music is too smart and sophisticated for all of the poor, beknighted foolishly patriotic yokels they used to call fans. Not content to simply alienate their former fans, the Chicks have decided to torch everyone who find this country worth loving and honoring, in the process showing that they’re not above hyperbole and some historical ignorance themselves.
Do I REALLY need to explain why we should ‘care’ about the whole country? I dunno, Peaches, but maybe the “whole country” just happens to include the place you happen to be living and, perhaps, there’s some unibrowed fiend out to blow that particular spot up. Maybe we should love our whole country because, IN GENERAL (you not included), the people in this country subscribe to the ideas of freedom of speech, freedom of musical expression, and freedom in general.* If some terrorist blows up Place X, they’re not attacking just Place X, they’re attacking the United States’ way of life. Ya know, kinda like you are, only more violently.
Well said. Well said indeed.
