You're not like all the rest

The Dixie Chicks have been in the news a lot lately; Madison has been easier on them than many towns. Now, our city council is getting involved...on their side.

Ald. Ken Golden, 10th District, is offering a resolution letting the trio know it can become the city's adopted country music group and encouraging them to change their name to the "Heartland Chicks or Dairyland Chicks."

The resolution, co-sponsored by 10 of 20 council members, supports the group's right to dissent, calls for a Dixie Chicks CD to be played during meeting breaks and directs the mayor to present the group with the keys to the city, French wine and a "suitable welcome" if they ever visit.
