Dixie Chicks are still not accepted....

by Country Radio. Despite their impressive wins at the Grammys, "Country Radio" remains cold to the Dixie Chicks. Maybe I should go out and buy one of their CD's.  Are C&W fans the last supporters of Bush? I thought it was the Mormons as "he's our type of guy."  ;)

They're played all the time on XM radio, and on our local San Jose Country station KRTY 95.3.  :D

Lynne:
Not so in TN, Eric - I haven't heard a Dixie Chicks song played on a Nashville radio station since the 'incident.'

All the post-Grammy man-on-the-street interviews were all about how undeserving they were of any wins with a central argument being the criticism of President Bush on foreign soil.

One woman said, in all seriousness, 'It's our duty to support the President, no matter what.'  I was thinking..."You live, where, again??"

Of course, they always find real winners for these spots.

Maybe we can find a BBM-appropriate Dixie Chicks song for BBM Radio in support?

One DC song that immediately jumped to mind is the one: Goodbye Earl ..  :P
But that song is way inappropriate for our 'cause' because the lyrics contain the words:
"Earl had to die" .. NO HE DIDN'T!!!  :)

I say we petition Eric to play a day of the chicks...in protest!
