Something to Ponder...

I recently picked up the record by a group who is an off-chute of The Dixie Chicks - The Courtyard Hounds. Basically two chicks less the big mouthed Natalie. I'm not sure what the story is - did they split up or is this a side project? I love Nat - she had balls back then to say what she said in a time where it wasn't cool to do so. Anyway point of this post is to share with a you quote that is on the inside of their CD case. I think it's very interesting.

Talent must be a fanatical mistress. She's beautiful when you're with her, people watch you, they notice. But she bangs on your door at odd hours and she disappears for long stretches and she has no patience for the rest of your existence: your wife, your children, your friends. She is the most thrilling evening of your week but some day she will leave you for good. One night, after she's been gone for years, you will see her on the arm of a younger man and she will pretend not to recognize you.
