10 GIFs To Accurately Show Your Excitement For The Dixie Chicks Tour

After they announced their tour in Europe earlier this fall, the Dixie Chicks announced that they will be touring the United State in the summer of 2016 for their DCX MMXVI World Tour.

Now, if you are anything like me, you grew up listening to all of the Dixie Chicks songs from "Wide Open Spaces" to "Goodbye Earl," and from "Cowboy Take Me Away" to "Not Ready To Make Nice." This trio is one of country musics' biggest groups of all time, and for good reason. The Dixie Chicks have sold over 30 million albums worldwide, making them the United States' best selling female band of all time. Wow. They are truly incredible. Even though they haven't come out with any new music as a trio since 2006, fans all over the world still adore the Chicks and are super ecstatic for their upcoming tour. And for fans like me, it was such a big surprise that my childhood idols would be touring in the United States. In their announcement video on Facebook, Natalie starts out by saying "Just when you thought you were safe, America, we're back!" Martie explains that it's been ten years since their last tour, and then Emily concludes, "there's no telling what will happen this time."

Ahhh! How could that video not get you excited for the tour? So, to sum up my joy, here are 10 gifs to perfectly describe my excitement for the Dixie Chicks tour for next summer.

When you find out the Dixie Chicks are finally touring in America next summer for the first time in forever.

When you learn that they are coming to a town near you in 2016.

When you finally get to purchase your tickets for the tour and get your confirmation email.

When you randomly remember that you are going to see Martie, Emily, and Natalie in the flesh in just a few short months.

When people question why you are so excited to see "just some group" in concert.

When you learn that some of your friends have no idea who the Dixie Chicks are and also do not know any of their songs. *sigh*

When you get to opportunity to show your uncultured friends the beautiful songs of the Dixie Chicks (i.e. "Wide Open Spaces," "You Were Mine," "Travelin' Soldier")

When you listen to any of their amazing songs and cannot just sit back and resist the urge to dance.

Or you cannot contain your inner Chick when your favorite song plays. You belt those lyrics!

When you are just so excited to finally see your childhood idols in concert on their world tour!

But in all seriousness, the Dixie Chicks are one of those bands that I grew up with. Their songs bring back so many memories from my childhood. So this tour is more than just seeing some country band. It is truly amazing to get to see a trio that helped shape the memories throughout my life.

See you in June, Dixie Chicks!

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
