Miranda Lambert Says You Can Only Fight During These Songs

Miranda Lambert is not someone to be messed with when she is on stage. She made that point this week when she spotted some girls fighting in the crowd while she was singing a ballad.
While playing a show in Texas, she stopped her song to ask if someone might have been injured or fainted. Then she said, "Are y'all fighting? During this song? 'Cause I will come down there."
Miranda then told the crowd, "We're not doing that today." A security moved to identify the troublemakers, and Lambert quipped, "He ain't worth it, it's fine. It's always the girls. We always get riled up and start punching each other. Why?"
One fan captured the moment on video and posted the exchange to X (formerly Twitter).
After the show, Miranda posted a video of herself telling fans what songs they were allowed to fight in during her show. She said, "If you want to fight at my show, I am all about it; give 'em hell. I've got five songs for you 'Fastest Girl In Town,' Kerosene,' 'Little Red Wagon,' 'Wrangler,' and 'Gun Powder and Lead.' Don't do it during 'Tin Man.' I know you hear the s--- talking because that's the ballad, but that's not the time. These are your five songs, choose wisely."
Lambert has released another new song in anticipation of her forthcoming album from her new label, Big Loud.
The new song is called "Dammitt Randy" and doubles down on her signature theme of empowerment as a woman liberated about reclaiming independence.
Miranda told us about the new song: "This song came out of a conversation the night before Jon Randall and I went into the studio to make this album. We were talking about how excited we were to be starting this journey with a new label family (Republic and Big Loud) and how supported we felt by them, which turned into chatting about situations where you might not feel so supported by someone—in this song's case, an unappreciative Randy."
She added, "So, this one's for anyone with a Randy they need to move on from."
The song's chorus lyrics are: "Yeah now that I made it to the other side / I hope you're countin' singles in your double wide / Smokin' cigarettes like they're goin' out of style /Turnin' me up on your radio dial /You gave up 'til the very last minute /Now that I'm gone I've got your attention."
