Some people still believe you should just fall in line with what's going on - and that's scary. It makes a mockery of freedom of speech.
I just know that I could never spend a winter in Chicago or some place like that. I'm just not a cold weather person.
I ride horses once in a while, but I'm no expert. I hold on for dear life.
Especially in the Dixie Chicks, everyone wants you to play a role. Natalie was the feisty one. Martie was the nice one 'cause she smiles all the time onstage, and I was the quiet one.
Being a musician doesn't take away your right as a citizen to speak your mind.
