Batting 1.000

I am loving that the Chicks ruled the roost last night. 5 for 5. I'm not sure which award was the best - 'album of the year' or winning both categories in country, from which they'd been shunned.

I am becoming more and more like Morty - that I just don't enjoy award shows. Unlike most, I tuned in for the Chicks performance, not the Police. The gals got off to a rocky start with their song, but I think it went pretty well overall - and I think Natalie looks great with dark (and most likely her natural colour) hair.

The Police....well.....'Roxanne' was a little too obvious of a choice and far from being their best song. Sting-a-ling-a-ding-dong looked great, but the performance had too much of a touch of free-form jazz. Je didn't enjoy it. But I've never enjoyed that song, so they were in a no-win situation with me.

At least the two performances I wanted to see were in the first half hour and then we didn't have to watch any more of it.

I didn't watch the show last night-- can't tolerate them anymore-- but I was so very happy to hear that the Dixie Chicks cleaned up in such a grand manner. My partner is a TX Republican Baptist and hates them, which might explain his pissiness this morning.

Rock on, Chicks!

I didn't recognize any of the songs. Didn't even know the Dixie Chicks played on pop radio, as I don't listen to the radio LOL
