New Chicks album

[Beachwood Mac]

I didn't start out a fan but once I saw them live on the Lilith Fair tour I was hooked. They are so energetic live and a refreshing change from the studio polished artists that can't recreate their sound on stage.

YAY!!! I've been waiting for this...sounds promising.

They're on "60 Minutes" tonite, if anyone cares. I'll be watching. I saw a preview and they're talking about the death threats they got. Stuff like "you will be shot dead, at your Dallas show on such and such date" Pretty scary.

I LOVE THE DIXIE CHICKS!

Listening to Stevie's cover of their song Landslide made me get in to them.

I like the chicks. Natalie is a little shrill, but great with harmonies. These girls are talented as musicians, singers, and writers. A rarity these days. And I didn't mind their Landslide. Of course Stevie should work with Rick Rubin. She has never had a producer who was able to tell her that her songs or lyrics were crap - it might actually produce a solo record that wasn't 40% bad songs. If only.

I can't wait to hear the new album, I'm sure it's gonna be great. I love the first single "Not Ready To Make Nice", the lyrics are obviously very personal since they relate to the Bush incident in 2003.

Get out of my head! That would be my only negative comment about the album. The shrillness starts to bother me around 3/4 through...I love their Landslide (and the video for it) and nothing would please me more than to hear that Rick Rubin was on tap to produce Stevie's next solo album.

All those images of them with black all over their hands, wiping it on their white dresses and unable to get rid of it. It is full on Lady Macbeth.

Black INK? Oil perhaps?? Someone on youtube pointed that out. That it may be oil, representing blood. Verrryy interesting!

Didn't Jimmy Iovine do that?

Heads Up: The Chicks are on Larry King tonite.
