AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Natalie Maines barely spoke between tunes while performing songs from her new solo album at the South by Southwest music festival this week.
Find: More on the Dixie Chicks-Bush controversy
Now 38, Maines seemed more nervous on stage than she did as the former Dixie Chicks spitfire who slammed then-President George W. Bush almost 10 years ago, forever changing the country group's fate and fortunes.
Looking slimmer and sporting a punkish pompadour, Maines played songs from her debut solo album "Mother" to a decent-sized crowd.
Maines is candid about the past and guarded about the future. When asked, she declined to predict whether the Dixie Chicks might reunite after going on hiatus in 2007.
I agree whole heartedly with you and I am not one of her supporters. In fact, I was a Reagan supporter and would be again today if he were alive. I just would like to see the American PEOPLE take back their country and really support our constitution. We need to be self sufficient and not depend on other countries for our welfare................which looks like where we are headed.
Amen to " gotta be free"
