wx ---- in response to your statement ----> "But now...if I support the Dixie Chicks I am not a true patriot?"

This is what I said ---> ""True" Patriot..yes I would agree that you are not a "True" Patriot IF you find nothing wrong with what they HAVE DONE!!!!!!! and if you find NOTHING wrong with the message they are sending the impressionable youth of this Country!

I think I qualified what I said by the carefull use of the words "True", "if", and "NOTHING".

Read again my friend.

:) I am not trying to be mean. And I agree that you have the right to your own opinion. I just respectfully disagree. And don't count yourself out on member of the month. Just because I don't always agree with you, doesn't mean that I don't think you are a good member. :)

wx247....I know...it was just a little light hearted humour. The fact of the matter is, and this is nothing against having an "award"....that's just not me..I could care less about being honored. I just like being a part of the group.

The Dixie Chicks concert at Orlando's TD Waterhouse Center, Friday evening was sold out, too... and there was only one protester in the "designated protesters section."

Um let me clear a few things up about sold out venues. They only release so many tickets and never fill to capacity. THEN even after they say the show is sold out they released more tickets and guess what, no one bought them. Radio stations were giving away free tickets to the show but no one cared to call in to try and win them.

There were plenty of protestors outside the venue. Who the heck would want to pay to protest? If they did, it would defeat the whole purpose.

No....I wouldn't say that....but I'm sure there was a large contingent of people there that had already spent $75 a ticket, and weren't willing to stand up for their principals.

I know it will please Chad if I let this subject die..so this will be my last post about it. :)

but...I must add just a couple more cents worth. I'm a diehard Country Music Fan, and have always liked some of the newer crossover artists like Shania, Faith Hill, and even the DC's. But...what comes with being a crossover artist is the undisputable fact that you now have an audience that is more likely to accept questionable behavior, outlandish behavior, and more fluff than substance. I thought Shania was the greatest until I saw her in concert, and lost all respect for her. She spent most of the show pandering to every super Mom or Super Dad there that would hold their child up for Shania to bring up on stage with her and parade around showing her "love" for children, yada yada yada. Then.....they put her on some kind of Egyptian type cart, and a bunch of slave looking handlers hoisted her over their heads and carried her around the stage floor perimeter while she blew kisses, giggled, and soaked in lustful gazes from all the men with sore rib cages. This...the same lady that moments earlier was auditioning for "Big Sister of the Year Award".

Maybe I'm in the minority in this Country, but I stand up for my principals, and as far as what I would have done if I was holding Dixie Chicks tickets? I would have traded them in for Marshall Tucker in a heartbeat.

I treat Music Artists the same way I treat a restaurant that provides bad service or bad food. I'm through with them, because there are plenty of other establishments out there.
