Folks If you take a real good look at Toby's comments nothing really has changed. He's just trying to dump enough 'snow' on them to make people think he has. In short this is nothing more than Toby (like many artists before him) modifying/changing his image to try to stay relevent (i.e. profitable) in the current music scene. Especially one which many in country have think it's leaned too far in the bush neocon camp and is hurting (especially ecconomically) as a result. Personally I don't think it's going to work in his case. But expect to see more of this from country in the future. Starting with the appearance of more new and/or current left-ward leaning country artists in (along with a possible major effort by country to 'reclame' the Dixie Chicks as 'theirs' again). Just like they did in the 70's. But thats just me.
