Nee kosam wiki lonchi lepaaaa.. During the run-up to the invasion of Iraq, Dixie Chicks performed in concert in London on March 10, 2003, at the Shepherd's Bush Empire theatre in England. This concert kicked off their Top of the World Tour. During the introduction to their song "Travelin' Soldier", Natalie Maines, who along with Robison and Maguire is also a native of Texas, said: "Just so you know, we're on the good side with y'all. We do not want this war, this violence, and we're ashamed that the President of the United States is from Texas" The US media picked up the story and controversy erupted. Maines's remark sparked intense criticism, media commentators claimed that she should not criticize Bush on foreign soil. Maines responded, "I said it there 'cause that's where I was" The comment by Maines angered many country music fans and was financially damaging. Following the uproar and the start of a boycott of Dixie Chicks' music, which, in turn, caused Dixie Chicks' cover of the Fleetwood Mac song "Landslide" to fall sharply from No. 10 down to 43 on the Billboard Hot 100 in a single week. Eventually their career ended for critisizing Bush lol Now Moral of the story: Dont get too happy, Everything comes back eventually. In 4 or 8 years, americans will suddenly start loving refugees and welcome immigrants and racism will be a big bhoothu, Rust belt will start cursing Trump for his empty promises, they will get very hungry to vote a different kind. |
