    No. It's never ok to like Nickelback. I don't care if they get quesadillas on the house or not. NOT. Cool.

    You should like what you want to like. But, when you like things like Nickleback or Beiber, people who like good things might look down on you. It's a cruel world. :huh:

    The main reason people don't like nickelback is because chad is dimebags cousin and that's the biggest reason he ended up with a contract to roadrunner records.

    I liked them a lot, then I saw them in concert last summer and like them even more. Those guys can ROCK! (plus several of their songs have a great beat and are really motivating for me to run to)

    I don't get all the Nickelback hate in the world...there are many, many groups and musicians that are MUCH less talented (and are still popular).

    Never knew this little tidbit, I just knew their songs all sound exactly alike...which is bad.

    Interesting. I actually did not know that...but if they weren't making the label any money (even if they were originally signed due to that connection), they would have been dropped ages ago. Especially because they're way more hard rock than metal, and Roadrunner seems to mostly have metal bands on the label.

    Disliking a band because you think they got a helping hand when they got started seems kinda silly. Tons of bands got started that way, some good, some bad. Everyone's got different taste...it just seems like there's extra hate for Nickelback...when there are A LOT worse bands out there...

    No. We'll keep Neil Young, though.

    I thought it's just because they sorta suck.

    I like Nickelback....

    I prefer music like Disturbed, Korn, A7X, Godsmack, Slipknot, ATR and and such but if I am in the mood for something a little lighter I'll listen to em.

    I know nothing about the band politics, all I know is their music sucks. hard. maybe it sounds good when you're drunk as **** sitting on the porch of your double wide, listening to your neighbours transistor radio, but even then brain damage would need to play a part.

    Any Canadian that listens to the radio probably can't tolerate. Hopefully Chad doesn't procreate with Avril and make "THE...WORST...POP...ARTIST...EVER". We already have Bieber for that thank you.
    There live show is pretty good though, but I won the tickets.

    I think if there songs weren't played once an hour (I'm not exagerating) then it wouldn't be so bad.

    LOL, we have one station that promises that (No Nickelback guarentee). The rest play an excessive amount, maybe because we are only a few hours away from their hometown or because they are pop, and rock (the ones I listen to).

    I cannot find anything that directly related Darrel and Chad...only thing I see is that Darrel and Chad were friends.

    It included appearances by Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, who played a guitar solo on the song "Follow You Home" and sang backing vocals on "Rock Star"—and a posthumously sampled appearance by Chad Kroeger's friend Dimebag Darrell from Pantera, culled from guitar outtakes.

    i don't like them because I have met Chad (and the rest of the band) Chad just came off to be really full of himself.
