![]() I'll keep my eyes open for the airdates. Cool about Natalie's dad...
http://www.austinchronicle.com/gyrob...d=oid%3A429252 Hail to the Chicks They strode onto the Erwin Center stage to the strains of "Hail to the Chief" last Monday, but these days the Dixie Chicks would rather poke fun at Britney Spears than George W. Bush. "This one's for K-Fed," quipped lead singer Natalie Maines before the trio and their ninepiece band, anchored by Austinite David Grissom, launched into bluegrass burner "White Trash Wedding." Otherwise, the Chicks' two-hour set of robust roadhouse rock ("Lubbock or Leave It," "Goodbye Earl") and emotional pop ("Not Ready to Make Nice," "Landslide") revealed a tougher, rawer band than the pie-eyed days of "Cowboy Take Me Away," which they played nonetheless. Indeed, from their first two multiplatinum albums, only "Wide Open Spaces" made the cut at the Chicks' Austin City Limits taping two days later. Drawing instead from 2002's Home and this year's Taking the Long Way, the Chicks inhabited the grownup sentiments of Long Way's "Silent House," Patty Griffin's "Top of the World," and heartwrenching encore "Travelin' Soldier," performed by just the trio with resilience and grace. Congratulations, by the way, to Natalie's dad, Lloyd Maines, who extended his ACL appearance record into the high teens (the exact number escapes even him), and the Chicks themselves: Thursday, Long Way was nominated for several Grammys, including Best Country Album (ha!), Album of the Year, and Record of the Year. |
