You need to get out more Brett -

If you’re looking for awesome country music performed by women you need go no further than gillian welch (screw that cliched cookie cutter yawn-fest that you’re into).

is that you in that brett?

Tigger, yeah fuck all those white bread straight men. All they do is fuck up everything and everyone they touch. They contribute nothing and quite frankly the world would so obviously be better off without them. God I loathe them.

Down with white bread men!

Kershaw is a good writer.

But well done on the name calling.

Brett – i didn’t say that the video i linked to was performance art (but the sequenced dancing was pretty cool). It was a live show – have a look at some of their other videos.

Felix is right of course – that song you linked to was cliched and lifeless. By the looks of things, Mr “Slackjaw” doesn’t have a creative bone in his body.

That’s lovely Brett, good for them.

But boy do they suck.

They do a lot of charity work, and were around about a decade before they got their first album deal, they have paid their dues.

I’m sure they’re very nice people. I’d still feed them to Lemmy.

Why would you want to do anything to the dixie chicks?, they are liberal and great artists.

How? I’d use a car.

How can anyone knock the dixie chicks?

They are brilliant.

Yes it’s a matter of taste, and yours is atrocious.

I’ll have to take your word about Sammy Slackjaw, but it sure sounds like mass-produced Nashville paint-by-numbers tripe to me.

I’m not even going to click that link, the last one left a permanent scar on my brain.

Roger:

Music is a matter of taste, personally I wouldnt call that link performance art, it could of been put together by someone in a high school band competition, but that is just my opinion.

Now here is a group of females that can really sing and play actual instruments.
