GUESS YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE NICE
.......to rake in the grammys, the Dixie Chicks must've done something right.
Nice may be out, but their new bad girl image might be just what the awards world ordered.
Or was it the sheer talent of the gals, led in my opinion by Natalie?.....who of course is the spawn of ubertalented Lloyd. Her grandpa was in on the musical gene pool as well.
Whatever are we so excited about?
Awards shows usually tell tales of popularity and represent the strength of a label's PR and marketing machines.
Of course record sales and expert critiques play into it as well....but the chicks broke a mold for me.
Maybe it's not such a big deal, but they could just be proving that despite bad press and radio bans......(you remember....for their
"un-American" expressions regarding the war and George Bush) that kudos can still fall from the sky.
And you don't need to be nice.
Thank god.
