Hold your up your right hand while placing left hand on a Dixie Chicks CD and say:
I, (state your name), promise
to love, buy any CDs of, purchase magazines pertaining to, go to concerts, watch on TV, pay per view, or any other media,
and visit the website of the Dixie Chicks, forever. I promise not to let this get the best of me however, so that I become
obsessed to the point of watching them through binoculars, looking through windows, and or garbage. I promise that when I
hear Natalie sing, or Martie fiddle, or Emily pick, that my heart will fill with admiration and respect for these women who
give so much to the music world. I promise that when the day comes when they become (heaven forbid) old and wrinkly, saggy
and gray, when Natalie can't sing so strongly anymore and Martie's fingers don't move as fast as they used to and Emily can't
remember what all those strings are for, I will still respect them, still admire them, and have a high regard for the Chicks
and all they stand for and do.
Credit for the authorship of this pledge goes to Terri Day. It first appeared on her Dixie Chicks site, which
no longer exists. Thanks to Terri for letting me give it a home on this site.
