Dixie Chicks Knowledge Base
Dixie Chicks =)? I'm a fan of the Dixie Chick's music, and I've always wanted to ask this question!: How many replacements have the Dixie Chicks gone thru? My friend said that they have had different singers over time, and there's only 1 or 2 of them that never left?! can someone explain that to me please?! thanks =)

dixie chicks? anyone work at a place that plays the dixie chicks every morning b/c their boss loves them??? just curious...if so where???
Why did the Dixie Chicks get into all this trouble and Pink did not? When the Dixie Chicks made a comment about president Bush all hell broke loose. They got banned from a lot of radio stations and got spit out by half of the nation. After that Pink makes a song "Dear mister president" and she doesn't get into a world of trouble. Why is that?
What do you think of the Eagles touring with the Dixie Chicks? I think it's great for the Dixie Chicks to get out there again, even if it's just an opening act. Yes they said some bad things about former President Bush, but the past is the past, and truthfully, who hasn't said something negative about a president before? The only difference this time was that major singers said something negative. So what's your opinion?
Unlike the Dixie Chicks, does Limbaugh have a free pass to say whatever he wants? When the Dixie Chicks went overseas and said they were "ashamed to be from the same state as Bush" the powers that be put a muzzle on them. The Republicans in radio stopped playing their songs. The excuse was given that if they had said that in the States they might not have stirred up as much cont roversy.I ask you, if Limbaugh went overseas and said something like "I hope Obama fails" would he still have a career? I think we all know the answer to that.
Was it Toby Keith that told the Dixie Chicks to shut up and sing? I am 13 years old and I love the Dixie Chicks! This isn't my account though it's my brother's! But I really would like to know exactly who it was that told them that I have been wondering for a little while but I figured that there has to be someone out there who knows haha!(: So anyone?
What is the best Dixie Chicks Song ? I love the music of Dixie Chicks a lot ...... I have heard their song called "wide open spaces" and its amazing So i want to know is this their best song ever or are there any other good songs of the band ?
Is anyone else still boycotting France and the Dixie Chicks? I've noticed that as time has passed some conservatives have begun listening to radio stations that play the Dixie Chicks, buying products from France and referring to Freedom Fries as French Fries. Are there any other conservatives out there like me who have not forgotten the lessons of 9/11?
Why do people praise George Jones yet bash the Dixie Chicks? George Jones: Wife beater,alcoholic,drug addict Dixie Chicks: Used their constitutional right of freedom of speech then the same people who love George Jones ran them out of town.Why would AMERICANS give a wife beater the time of day to be heard again and run a band out of town for simply exercising their right to free speech?
What are your views about the dixie chicks and everything that happened with it? I think that The Dixie Chicks were criticized horribly for making the remark about Bush. Freedom of speech lets them say what they want. I am glad that Natalie spoke her mind and I will always be a big fan for it. They are a wonderful group and Bush is an awful President to me. I don't agree with him at all.....what are your views on it?
Does Country Radio still boycott the Dixie Chicks? Is the boycott still going strong today? I don't remember the last time I heard the Dixie Chicks on country radio. I've heard them on XM Radio, but not on FM. I really wish the Dixie Chicks would make a comeback. I'm very conservative and a huge Bush supporter and even I can forgive them...I just miss their music.
What ever happened to the Dixie Chicks? In their hay days they were one of the most popular music group. I wasn't a big fan of some of the things they said and did but I know good music when I hear it and they were good. I remember when Natalie Maines came out and said that "We don't want this war, this violence, and, we're ashamed of the President of the United States from Texas", after that they disappeared. Well now were are all those haters? all the people who wanted this war? no one wants this war anymore and we didn't find "weapons of mass destruction", so why don't the Dixie Chicks come back?
Should people be apologizing to the DIXIE CHICKS? People were calling up bashing the Dixie Chicks, and the stations stopped pIaying their songs, all because one of them spoke up and said she was ashamed of GW Bush. Hmmmm.....no weapons of mass destruction in IRAQ. Economy going down the drain. Soaring gas prices. Seven months left before his end of term and he is trying to gear up for a war with IRAN.
Did the country apologize to The Dixie Chicks? A few years back, I was traveling in Houston, where I turned on one of the local stations. People were calling up bashing the Chicks, and the stations stopped pIaying their songs. I believe alot of people should openly and publicly apologize to The Dixie Chicks. The remarks that got Natalie(?) in trouble with the cowfolks, now seem to be quite prophetic. One would think those folks would be quite ashamed and emberessed for making 2 bad judgements.
What did the Dixie Chicks do to President Bush? Serious answers please, i know that they said something, that people believe they shouldnt and it lost them alot of fans, and thats why we dont really hear from them anymore. But what exactly did they do or say?
What do you think of the Dixie Chicks now that the smoke has cleared? If you'd been asked this 3 years ago, would your answer have been the same? Cherry, no that isn't why. Barbara is friends with the Clintons, a die hard leftist liberal if ever there was one. Her fan base is the same, so her antics come as no surprise to her followers or anyone else. The DC on the hand inflamed the majority of their fan base with their outspoken views against Bush. Agreed, it wasn't a smart move. I think their music is wonderful and Travelin' Soldier is one of my favorite songs, completely aside from politics. It rings true and blue for soldiers in Iraq and the melancholy ghosts of Vietnam, both the beloved departed and the living, who remember all to well that they fought for and returned to a country that didn't want them. I have prayed that Iraq would not become another Nam, but Dems will have it no other way it would seem.
How do people feel about the political outcry of the Dixie Chicks? As a Canadian I believe we need to bring the troups home now, as it is not our war, but it's Iraq's! No matter which side we come from it shouldn't be fought with either the Americans or Canadians on there turf, let them figure it out. I too am not ready to make nice, either! I think it was a valid statement and I believe in all the power of change!
What did the dixie chicks say that was so bad? All I know is that she said something bad about the president ( OR SOMEONE) and people got mad so she wrote a song called " not ready to make nice " or " forget" or whatever i cant remember.
What do you think about the Dixie Chicks song, "Not Ready to Make Nice"? What do you think about the Dixie Chicks song, "Not Ready to Make Nice" I think it shows how brave you can be. Instead of being conquered by fear they marched straight ahead and broke down walls. It is very inspiring to me. I don't know why most of our american society thinks it is unpatriotic to ask questions and criticize officials. I think it is totally opposite not to ask questions and exercise our freedom of speech ammendment. Stand up for what you believe. Our founding fathers didn't build this country being quiet, they rose hell! Being silent causes more deaths than any disease, cancer, and/or murder all together. Call people in congress! Take a stand!!! I am very proud of you ladies! They are also better role models than brittney, paris and lindsey. Why don't people throw a fit over that?
How Do You Feel About the Dixie Chicks? After the comment made by them 6 years ago, is there still any animosity felt towards them? Does anyone feel sorry for them? Have they risen again or will they never be as popular as they once were? How do you feel about the backlash they were given?
Any news on the Dixie Chicks' latest album? I've been googling like crazy for a while now, trying to seek news on when the new Dixie Chicks album will be released. Does anyone have any news on that? There's nothing on Twitter, The Dixie Chicks websites, nothing. Should I just assume that nothing is happening with the Chicks? It's been a while now since their last album....

What do the Dixie Chicks think about Patriotism? "A lot of pandering started going on, and you'd see soldiers and the American flag in every video. It became a sickening display of ultra-patriotism." "The entire country may disagree with me, but I don't understand the necessity for patriotism. Why do you have to be a patriot? About what? This land is our land? Why? You can like where you live and like your life, but as for loving the whole country ... I don't see why people care about patriotism." Hmmm..."I don't see why people care about patriotism." Well there's some proud Americans!
Why did the Dixie Chicks carraer fall after the shots at the war? I have asked many ppl and found that non ofthem had a good answer, alwys told them that if we don't have feedom of speech that we are no diferent then any other country we have gone to war with does anyone hate the dixie chicks for this and why do you so mch? FINALLY educated answers :) ty, and ty again, makes sense guess just personal opion and such
What was it that Reba say about the Dixie Chicks at the awards show? I didn't watch it.I don't like those shows anymore.Whoever writes the jokes for them aren't funny.Not a big fan of Reba anymore as she hasn't had anything good out in years.Furthermore the direction country music has taken is not country.They tell artists they're "too country" and won't play people like Ken Melons.So anyway what's going on between Reba and The Dixie Chicks? See what I mean. How is that funny?She went half way around the world to make a joke at someone elses expense that didn't freaking make any sense. FFUCK Reba McEntire. See what I mean. How is that funny?She went half way around the world to make a joke at someone elses expense that didn't freaking make any sense. FFUCK Reba McEntire.
Are Dixie Chicks' songs bad 2 sing in the west tn idol? I can only sing dixie chicks songs, but I'm afraid I won't do as good cuz ppl will discriminate against me cuz I'm singing their songs. I really like their songs. especially wide open spaces, cowboy take me away, and to the top of the world. I'll be 13 in september, should I sing dixie chicks songs or is it a bad idea?
I have a question about the Dixie Chicks? Why did so many people respond so negatively towards Natalie Maines comments regarding how she was ashamed of the president being from texas? I'm writing a essay regarding the whole controversial argument and so far...the only things I have are they were unpatriotic to the country, everybody agred with bush at the time, and they said the comments at the bad time (war on iraq). Do you guys have any other suggestions on why americans reacted the way they did towards them?
What were The Eagles thinking when they went on tour with The Dixie Chicks? The Eagles are far Superior to the Dixie Chicks. I lost respect for The Eagles. Somehow I feel a little bit betrayed. Cherry, Get over yourself. If you did not like my question and reason you need not respond. As for all of you that answered it is about the money. I could not agree more. But, I still believe they can make just as much if not more money without the Dixie Chicks. I also think there is Politics behind it. Do any of you agree?
My fellow Democrats, how would you react if a singer from Illinois acted like the Dixie Chicks re:Bush? In other words, what if she said she was ashamed that the President of the United States was from Illinois? Assume that you are a fan of this singer. Would you: A) Refuse to listen to any of her music again B) Lose respect for her as a person, but still listen to her music C) Not let it affect you at all because everyone's entitled to their opinions D) Other truth seeker: imagine that you already have bought her music. truth seeker: imagine that you already have bought her music.
What is this Dixie chicks song? Theres this Dixie Chicks song, I like but I dont remember what its called. All I remember is them singing "forgive, forget, sounds good". What song is this ?
Why does the Dixie Chicks sweeping the Grammys make Conservatives so Bitter and Angry? Why are all the right wingers so bitter about the huge success of the Dixie Chicks? "Taking the Long Way" has been certified double platinum in the U.S. by the RIAA. It is also triple platinum in Canada, double platinum in Australia, platinum in New Zealand and gold in the U.K. and Ireland. Of all albums released in 2006, Taking the Long Way was the 6th biggest selling disc last year in the U.S. Additionally, “Not Ready to Make Nice” has now been certified a Gold digital single. CMT has announced that the Dixie Chicks’ “Not Ready to Make Nice” video is a first round nominee in three categories for the upcoming 2007 CMT Music Awards: Video of the Year, Group Video of the Year, and Video Director of the Year UNBELIEVABLE NIGHT! Dixie Chicks went five for five at the 29th Annual Grammy Awards on Feb 11 winning the big three general categories: Album of the Year, Record of the Year and Song of the Year, as well as Best Country Album and Best Country Performance By a Duo or Group.
Whatever happened to the Dixie Chicks? I know they all had children and are probably putting them first for a while but its been quite a while since their last album/tour. Will they make a comeback? Also, I never hear their stuff on the radio, like their old stuff?
Does Anyone Else See the Irony in the Dixie Chicks Controversy? About the comment Natalie Maines made about being ashamed George Bush is from Texas? I mean, to start, it pretty much killed their career because they exercised their right to free speech, and in the end, we all agreed that Bush sucked, and he ended up as one of the worst presidents in history.
How do you feel about the Dixie Chicks? I'm referring to their political bluntness awhile back. Do we all agree, at this time, that they were right? Have you heard their song "I Don't Want to Make Nice"? I believe it is making reference to their political faux paus; don't you?
Do you think the Dixie Chicks will play at Obama's Inauguration? I just watched their documentary "Shut Up And Sing" for the first time... I knew I would like the film, but I must admit that I was a little surprised to see John McCain in it... considering it was filmed in 2005. Did you know that John McCain was at the head of that Senate committee trying to ban the Dixie Chicks from the radio? Why does he hate free speech?
How can Americans claim to be the land of the free and yet threaten the Dixie Chicks? I am an Australian who has found America's reaction to Natalie Maines comments about George Bush quite confusing and unfathomable. Aren't Americans acting like the dictators they readily declare war on, by saying you can't speak out against your leader at risk of death? I think so. What I want to know is, are Americans really like this? Supporting a leader no matter what he does? Even if it leads the murder of many civilians?
Why all the fuss over the Dixie Chicks? I applaud them for standing up for what they believe in, and find it reprehensible that they are being crucified by the country music industry just because they think, like most Americans do(according to most polls), that Bush is an embarrasment! Leave the Chicks alone!
What are the Dixie Chicks top 15 or 20 hits? OK, Politics aside, I have a friend that is a Huge Dixie Chicks fan. I want to make her a greatest hits CD but can't find a list of their top songs. I'm not a fan, but not for political reasons, just not into their music that much. I thank God everyday that we live in America and have a right to our opinions and freedom of speech. Anyway, if anyone can help me I will give you 10 points :-)
Why do some people say they hate the Dixie Chicks after their comments in UK, yet some still love Green Day? I love both Dixie Chicks and Green Day. However, I find it puzzling that some people I know refuse to listen to the Dixie Chicks after their comments in UK, but those same individuals absolutely *love* Green Day. Do people understand why they hate the Dixie Chicks or is it just following blindly with some in their party? If you want to get down to the core values of the Dixie Chicks and compare them with Green Day, Green Day wins in an anti-Bush battle hands down. I support both of their messages. I wish there were more in the media who would speak out against the wrongs of government (both democrats and republicans). So why do you think some people hate the Dixie Chicks but still love Green Day? I don't think I was clear in my question. :) What I mean to ask is how can someone hate the Dixie Chicks for their statement, but that same person like Green Day?
How much longer with the Dixie Chicks last? one half of their sales were distributor sales with buyback? Sales from their last CD were not accurate. What we were not told was that the sells reported were consignments to Distributors - because the Dixie Chicks have a Buy back clause in their distributor contracts instead of a "return unsold" agreement. The agreement also states that they have to buyback stock not sold at a higher price than the distributor paid for the inventory to compensate for stock space. This is done with many artists.
Why have the Dixie Chicks become such a tabou topic amongst answerers? when i think of country i think of folk music and rock music coming together i grew up with bluegrass and grew to love the dixie chicks because they crossed over into pop culture mindy smith would be my second choice for best country artist because she is also on the bridge between folk + rock! it's nice to know your perspective i'm sure toby + reba are happy to have such loyal fans
Where in the Southeast can you hear the Dixie Chicks on the radio? The Dixie Chicks won 5 Grammys last night, but I haven't heard them on a country station in years. Where I live I can hear 3 Atlanta stations, one Athens station, and one Greenville, SC station. None of these play the Chicks because of their political comments which were very unpopular here in the South. I think if they promise to keep quiet on political issues, the stations here should resume playing them again as they are excellent musicians.
How Can I Get Dixie Chicks Meet And Greet Passes? So I'm going to see The Dixie Chicks in October in Los Angeles because they are doing 6 shows with The Eagles and I really want meet and greet passes. I was wondering if anyone had any idea how I could get my hands on some?
