System’s Serj Got Dixie Chick’ed Before The Dixie Chicks

System Of a Down frontman Serj Tankian tells Tom Lanham of the San Francisco Examiner that he and his group “got Dixie Chick-ed way before the Dixie Chicks” after his post-9.11 comments explaining his thoughts on why the terror attack against America happened. “I can honestly say that that period was one of the most stressful times in my whole life,” he explained. Since then, along with Audioslave axeman Tom Morello, he went on to form Axis Of Justice, a grassroots activist organization — which now includes a weekly radio show — that helps raise fan awareness on key socio-political issues.
