This dance was choreographed after I met the Dixie Chicks in London. It was a thrill to meet them & see them perform. They put on a good show & it was great to hear songs such as "Let 'Er Rip" live. When I heard them sing "Tonight The Heartache's on Me", I realized what a good song it was & went home that night to play the CD version again. Heartbreak Express was choreographed the next day.
