I didn't say they should shut up. I just said I don't want to go to a concert and listen to political commentary. I just said that if they want to speak their minds they should expect a possible backlash from the fan base that doesn't like it.
If I wasn't interested in listening to opinions different than mine, I wouldn't post here, because about 90% of the political opinions posted vary from about. True, I didn't list any conservatives. Charleton Heston has certainly been given grief by the anti gun lobby, has he not? Arnold is a governor. He kind of has to speak out. I've never bothered to listen to what Tom Selleck or either of the Millers has to say. However, I suppose I can justify my selection in that the majority of the Hollywood crowd seems to be on the left. Please note the word "seems". |

The Dixie Chicks concert I went to was in Phoenix right after all this happened. There were no political comments made. One quick reference to "the controversy" was all that was said about it. I think it was a comment made for the audience at the time, which was in London.
After that they did come out and do interviews etc in which they expresses their political opinions. But I don't they made a habit of doint it during their shows.

As one who goes to concerts pretty regularly, I haven't been to a concert in ages where there WASN'T political commentary of some kind. Artists speak about society and politics is a HUGE part os life. It could be that there are artists out there who don't "imbibe" in social commentary and I just don't see them. It would be fair to say that I am just not attracted to artists that only deal in hearts and flowers. |

My last concert was Garbage, last summer. So much fun!
![]() Oops, I have nothing to add regarding the Dixie Chicks. I'm the farthest thing from a fan, really. My late best friend enjoyed them bunches, and another dear friend of mine played them once for me. I tried. I really, really did. Sort of. Okay, kinda. Maybe not so much. I was like, "The only instruments missing are a washboard & the jug. With XXX on the side". Only a Country Bear can keep my interest that way. It's nothing against the Chicks, God bless 'em. ![]() Goodbye Earl, hello Morrissey. That's music to my ears! ![]() |
