Emily Answers the Question, "What's Next?"Emily tries to block out the fact that none of the picture frames match. At last, I have updates! There is a new article up on the main DCX page -- it's my lengthy interview of Emily, discussing the future of the Dixie Chicks, her reflections on touring, and other random curiosities. You can find out why she hates grocery shopping, how she feels about reacting to Natalie's on-stage banter, what song she missed on the last tour's set list, and what she recently found out about Natalie's voice in "Fly" and "Wide Open Spaces." As an added bonus, you can see a picture of Emily and Dave Grissom posing with a bottle of lube. Leave your comments below! What's All This Talk About Love?Where is My Humps? In a brilliant stunt to get people to visit her website, Senator Clinton is letting the people choose her official campaign song. As you can see from the choices above, DCX's "Ready to Run" is one of nine possibilities. It's a comforting sign of the times that a mainstream presidential candidate like Hillary Clinton feels comfortable potentially associating herself with the Dixie Chicks. That said, "Ready to Run" -- I'm sorry to say -- makes no sense as a theme song. C'mon, fans, you know it's true. The song is about a woman who isn't ready for commitment! If Hillary were to announce that she is leaving Bill due to his extramarital mattress dancing, on the other hand, the song would be more apropos. In my opinion, "I Hope" would have been a better choice. And if I'm just choosing based on Dixie Chicks song titles, I like the idea of Hillary ominously threating the country with "If I Fall, You're Going Down With Me." I'm voting for Jesus Jones. You? A New Bass Player! Yahtzee!Not Ready To Roll Dice There are two new articles up on the main page: 1. God Delivers A House: The Chicks Face A Crisis On Tour, Pt. II and 2. Life on the Bus: Tales from the Road to Accidents and Accusations In the first article, you can find out whether God is a Dixie Chicks fan. In the second, you can learn what happened when Natalie invited me on her bus for a Yahtzee duel. In response to some of the comments I've already received, I feel obligated to point out that some people are getting the wrong impression that Ms. Maines was a poor loser of a diva who was throwing an angry fit. Apparently, I over-dramatized things when writing about the experience. In reality, we were all having a good time and everyone was in good spirits. Natalie was being her usual fun-but-fiercely-competitive self and I, of course, was quite content to challenge stereotypes that all Japanese people are good at math. That said, the part about me getting in hot water for violating bus rules is not remotely over-exaggerated. Below, you can find my scans of the score sheets from the game: And here below is Natalie's re-calculation of my score using the traditional rules of addition: By the way, if you want to check out pictures of the inside of Emily's, Martie's, and Natalie's bus, you can do so by clicking the designer's website here. (I was never allowed to snap photos on the bus.) Martie's is the black and white one, Natalie's is the green and white one, and Emily's is the purple lounge. Please leave your comments below! |
