Quotes from the Dixie Chicks--
"I don't even know what's played on country radio, but when they tell me some titles, it cracks me up,'' laughs lead singer Natalie Maines, sitting in a swank New York hotel as the group promotes its new album, ``Taking the Long Way,''
``Besides, where would we fit on the playlist between `Honky Tonk Badonkadonk' and `Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off'?'' asks Maines, citing two recent country hits, as the rest of the Chicks _ sisters Martie Maguire and Emily Robison _ join in her laughter.
``We don't want to be a square peg,'' pipes in Robison, while Maines adds: ``We'd rather be the square peg on the other side!'' ``It just pisses me off,'' says a steamed Maguire.
``I don't know that we set out to make a rock record,'' says Maines. ``But we definitely didn't set out to make a country record and I definitely had a bad taste in my mouth.''
