We're not sure what size the Seattle Dixie Chicks fanbase is, but this seemed worth a note: today MSN Video is webcasting their sold-out concert appearance at Shepherd’s Bush Empire in London, the place where Natalie Maines made her feelings about Dubya known three years ago. If you're into that whole twangy, free-thinking women thing, this is as good as it gets until they show up in Tacoma November 11.

First of all, we could describe it all, the minutiae, the ecstasy -- but streaming video is also fun. MSN Video was at Sasquatch, filming for future on-demand streaming starting Thursday, June 1. (We understand teasers and highlights are up now.) They have artist interviews and a blog from Sean Nelson (whom our friend thinks lives upstairs from him, after seeing him appear with the Decemberists -- "He's in a band?" he asked. "Man, he makes a racket stomping around up there. He's got a piano, too.") You can create your own playlist or just sit back and Sasquatch.

Up next was The Shins, fresh outta P-town. Is it too much to say that their warmth and good humor revived the audience, saving lives most likely lost to hypothermia otherwise? No, it is not. It's not true, exactly, but there you go. Anyway, their set was varied, they tried out two brand-new songs that didn't suck, and as Natalie Portman promised in Garden State, they changed our lives.
