Shut up and sing

March 20th, 2007

We finally watched the Dixie Chick documentary Shut Up & Sing— it was fantastic (although I definitely liked it more than David)! What a fabulous group of sassy, interesting, intelligent, and talented women. I was so touched by their camaraderie, as well as their deep love and respect for each other. They just blew me away! It’s so refreshing seeing superstars as regular people and people you could see hanging out with (in my dreams, right?!). If you are at all a fan of their music or if you want the inside scoop on the 2003 “incident,” rent it!

    “My friends from high school married their high school boyfriends, moved into houses in the same ZIP codes where their parents live… But I, I could never follow… No I, I could never follow…”

    Oh, how I can relate to those lyrics. From New Jersey to California with no regrets.

I don’t think of myself as a country music fan, but I also didn’t realize that their new album isn’t all that country… so, I’ve decided that I am going to put my money where my mouth is and buy their cd . I want to support them!

  1. Hey Carrie! You know I am not a country music fan but I do love the Dixie Chicks. Their album is very good and I truely admire them for saying what they believe. Hooray for strong women!
