this artist makes the dixie chicks look like girl scouts

[Gato Moteado]

don't get me wrong. i love the dixie chicks and think natalie maines is a true patriot and hero.

but....

i just ran across this guy on myspace and listened to a couple of his songs and i'm wondering how many times secret service has paid a visit to him. seriously.

here's his myspace profile:

listen to his song called "checks and balances".

3. Still doesn't hold a candle to Ministry.

For all out venom against Bush, "Rio Grande Blood" is as good as it gets.

5. another chicago band

i wish the dem country artists (other than the dixie chicks, who seem to be the only texas band with guts) would grow some spines and start showing a little dissent.

7. Yep. I saw them at the Chicago House of Blues this last tour.

Great show.

8. man, they've been around forever

anywhere i can download mp3s of the rio grande blood cd? i'd like to hear it.

11. I first saw them live back in the mid-80s

when they changed from their dark, synth/dance sound to their current industrial/thrash/angry/distorted sound.

You can listen to snippest of Rio Grande Blood on iTunes. It's a great CD if you like that kind of music--like I do!!

10. Ministry at House Of Blues?

Wow. I am getting old.

12. Bet I'm older!

I'm pretty sure I was the oldest one there. And I certainly was the only one in the mosh pit (got dragged into it, but I can hold my own) with gray hair!

13. I got draggen into their mosh pit back in 1989-90

I was a little too old then.

More power to ya.
