POSING NUDE on YOUR next CD?

[Ray Montee (RIP)]

Perhaps steel guitarists should take a tip from the "DIXIE CHICKS".... If its' ok to promote your "music", album or CD, by posing nude for the cover, just think of the potential for some of you upward bound, mobile, deep thinking, steel guitar pickers.
I caint help but wonder if the stupid remark hadn't been made by their lead singer, would they have felt it was really necessary to shed their clothes? Huhmmmmm?

[Bobby Lee]

I don't think that nude steel players are a pretty site. I think Joe Goldmark got the right idea, though:

Hey, I want people to BUY my CDs, not throw up when they see them.

I would really question if the Dixie Chicks really posed for the nude photo. With today's computer technology it is too easy to use body doubles. I support my theory by looking at the nude photo of Natalie it's not the right body shape for her.

I know a photographer who did the same thing with a photo he had taken of himself with the Chicks at fanfair a few years ago. When he was done with the computer alterations, he was posing with nude Dixie Chicks. It was quite convincing.

Whoever's bodies they are on the cover of Entertainment Weekly, they look great, but are definitely "pinkos."

[Bobby Lee]

Joe's cowgirls are real, though.

[Perry Hansen]

In my case, I don't think a picture of a beached whale would sell many CDs.

[Eric West]

Ray, were you thinking of a double album?

[Jim Cohen]

I'd like to know the story behind Joe's cowgirls... um... maybe I'd better rephrase that. Behind Joe's cowgirls is bound to be a nice story... no, that's not quite right, either. Hmmm... Anyway, who the heck are they, how did he get them to do this photo shoot, and do they have any younger sisters who'd like to build upon this excellent precedent for my upcoming album?

[Leroy Riggs]

I couldn't pose nude -- I need my shirt on to keep my belly from rolling over the strings!!

[Jim Cohen]

Leroy! Didn't you hear? That's the latest blocking technique!

[Ray Montee (RIP)]

Plain ole Eric.....You're absolutely RIGHT!

[chas smith R.I.P.]

If you were anorexic you could put the photo on the end....

[Dave Robbins]

Posing nude for an album cover?????

I think not! I would want to "sell" the album not "plant corn". Of course, I don't have a garden nor a problem with crows." Come to think of it, I don't have an album either! LOL!

I thought about it..... but I would like for them to play the album at least once before the shock and realization of just how really good I look and .....ere6 yrkt6o5yt dkfjyi5y <>?LY%(*$#

Just put it THIS way. What if you saw a CD,
"Herby Wallace......."

[Joe Casey]

Ray what a "Natural" it would be for you, Just Imagine. You could call it "FULL MONTEE". or Full Of Montee. It's a wiener fer sure.

[Jason Odd]

stupid remark?..... all a matter of opinion, which I understand you're still allowed in American no matter who's getting bombed or what country you're in.

[Dave Robbins]

Jason,
you absolutely right! Here in America we do have the right to our opinions, but...

along with it should also be the wisdom to know when to express it...especially when you're in the public eye and depend on it for your future prosperity.

Sometimes it is just better to keep your right of opinion to yourself. All them people down in Louisianna and other places who burned, stomped, and otherwise defaced their "Dixie Chicks" CD's after Natalie's remark might still have been playing them today, as well as buying them.

Decide for yourself...freedom to express unwisely your opinion, or keep it to yourself and enjoy the pleasure of record sales?)

Just my humble and possibly "unwise" opinion.

In my opinion, I think the only way out of the Chicks tailspin, would be, a Summit meeting with Toby Keith and Natalie Maines, airing their differences and culminating in a big group hug. Toby is the only one who can resurrect their career with his endorsement of their right to free speech, but first, the Chicks must be willing to approach Toby's people about such a meeting. Toby Keith is in the drivers seat, maybe not on a worldwide scale, but definitley in the Country music world. IMHO

[Earnest Bovine]

Who is Toby Keith?

[Kenny Dail]

Ernest, I think he is the one driving the "Fancied up" FORD p/u truck. The is not the "Like a Rock" truck.
