BBC News 08/08/06"Country music group the Dixie Chicks have cancelled 14 concerts on their north American tour and delayed others. A spokeswoman said the number of concerts remained the same, with dates in Canada replacing cancelled US shows. A band statement said the changes were to "accommodate demand". Billboard magazine in the US has reported ticket sales below expectations. The band suffered a backlash in 2003 following remarks by singer Natalie Maines about US President George Bush."
