The legendary Dallas country trio The Chicks opened their first of two shows at the Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory in Irving on Monday with a snippet of Joan Jett’s “Bad Reputation.” It’s a bit of cliched needle drop at this point, but nobody can say they haven’t earned it.
The show in question went on without incident, but the threat marked a turning point for the band. They’ve recorded and toured sparingly in the 20 years since, and their concerts have a heightened security presence to this day. Make no mistake, though. The Chicks have not backed down. They just let their art speak for them now., a criminally underrated record that got lost in the chaos of the pandemic and, possibly more damningly, the band's name change mid-promotion cycle to distance themselves from the Confederate origins of the word “Dixie.” They are nothing if not principled.and its belated tour explore feelings of betrayal, both personal and political.
Poignantly enough, “Landslide” was the single they were promoting when their career was, for lack of a better word, canceled by conservative country listeners. But as the song alludes, time did make them bolder and they are less afraid than ever to challenge such groups.single and protest anthem that was warmly received but didn’t make much of a commercial impact. The reason? It begs to be witnessed live.
