Natalie Maines was just warming up when, on March 10, 2003, 10 days before the Iraq invasion, the lead singer of the Dixie Chicks stepped up to the mic on stage at the Shepherd?s Bush Empire Theatre in London and said, "We?re ashamed that the President of the United States is from Texas." In the vivacious new documentary Shut Up & Sing: Dixie Chicks, Maines is seen watching TV later in 2003 as George Bush opines on the Dixie Chicks boycott that sprang up in opposition to her comment. When he tells Tom Brokaw, "They shouldn?t have their...
...There ya go, down-home protesters and country music programmers. You got your red-state, red-meat headline: Dixie Chicks Lead Singer Calls President a Dumb F---. The pop country trio - with Emily Robison (fiddle, etc.) and Marcie Maguire (dobro, etc.) sawing and strumming up a storm behind Maines - already seems to be spending more time on NPR than on CMT.

Since I don't recognize all the titles, I call David Singer of the American Bible Society, who confirms my suspicion that "None of the commentaries are anything but Protestant and if anything, Evangelical." Nada for Catholics, Orthodox or the sort of Episcopalian who might, say, elect a gay bishop. According to Godspeed CEO Sears, who self-identifies as evangelical, most...
...making the folk-rock icon the oldest living artist ever to launch an album at No. 1. Notoriously reclusive, Dylan lately even seems to be enjoying his public, publishing a memoir, deejaying a show on XM Satellite Radio and endorsing a Broadway musical. "They say, 'Dylan never talks,'" the singer told Rolling Stone. "Well, what the hell is there to say?" How about, Welcome back...
