King went to the Lake City Music Festival
in Lake City, Co. over the weekend. Terri Hendrix was playing with Lloyd Mains. Lloyd is Natalie Mains dad. Natalie, as you probably know is a singer with the Dixie Chicks who was boycotted by Clear Channel. Terri had a really cool song about that:

Monopoly

Lyrics and Music (Terri Hendrix)
Music (Lloyd Maines)

Supersize my fries
Bring back two apple pies
On your way out
Turn on the radio
Goodbye originality
Say hello to conformity
In the name of change
We're at an all time low

Watch what's on the TV screen
Read the paper or a magazine
And you'll see
That it's all about control
I miss the spice
In the melting pot
Of our lives
It goes down easy but it
Sure ain't got no soul

Keep it down
Keep it down
I'm gonna keep it down
And turn it up
On another day

Keep it down
Keep it down
We've gotta keep it down
And rise up
When you hear me say

There ain't no clear channel
clear channel its clear to see
One choice takes the voice
From individuality

There ain't no clear channel
clear channel its clear to see
One choice takes the voice
Away from you and away from me

At first it was the Cafe
Then the mom and pops all moved away
Now the billboards stand
Where they could not survive
The local DJ lost his show
After 20 years on the radio
Now we're stuck with what
The monopoly provides

I just want something new
To shake my soul and body to
Set up the tent I need to be revived
Make the consultant history
Keep the playlist a mystery
Don't make up my mind for me
Cause I'm still alive

Hey Hey FCC Don't you turn your back on me
