Other poll option

Hi,

there wasn't a third option of "I like them, but not enough to buy a cd/gig".
This is why I haven't voted in the poll.

Show her this clip of them getting bricked off stage in Portugal. It is the antidote.

 
Oh god they are bad. I will admit to liking how you remind me the first dozen times i heard it but oh my god they are shite. Utter utter shite.

edit: seeing as stained have been mentioned on this thread. You lot know about cold? the band stained wish they were quite frankly. awesome. Download 13 wasy to bleed and see if you dont agree.(if you like your grunge anyway)

wow i was surprised to see even one vote for people liking them, i saw a hilarious video on youtube once of the singer getting nailed with a rock in the head at some show in south america somewhere, it was awesome. i dont understand how they still exist
 
theres a line in that rock start tune that encapsulates perfectly the stupidity of Chad

'everybodies got a drug dealer on speed dial'


no they haven't Chad. Idiots might put their supplier of narcotics on speed-dial. You absolute fuckwad
 
not the spaniards or portugese anyway.

in 2002 the band i was in played festivals in spain and portugal and one of the acts playing was nickleback. in portugal folk were chucking fucking rocks and loads of bottles at them. we had to go on stage afterwards and it took about 30 minutes before they decided the stage was clear enough for us to go on.

in spain a few nights later they got bottled off after the first couple of songs.

yea they're shite but we played with a lot of bands a damned sight more shite that summer (libertines for one). never met any of nickleback so can't comment on what they're like as people.

think it was just the 'done' thing to chuck stuff at them, as i remember it was for daphne and celeste when they played some festivals a few years before. which just showed what a bunch of wankers most of the crowd were as they were a million times better than the wet-arsed indie shit that was getting lapped up.
 


woah! yea, that was the fuckin festival. it was mad!! i'd got a bit mixed up, think that WAS pretty much a heavy metal festival apert from us and John Spencer Blues explosion (though we both went down great) - think slipknot were headlining and some mental band called Dimmur Borgir or something who all dressed up like monsters and acting well mental on stage, but we were staying at the same hotel as them and they were a bunch of cocks and not up for any scoring drugs or going on a mission robbing stuff.

think Hundred Reasons were staying there too. another bunch of dullards.

That reminds me of the anecdote about Reading from back when it was a biker festival and Meat Loaf played...


"If one more bottle gets thrown I'm leaving"....
 
I can't stand nickelback, they're overrated shite tbh.LOL@the poll results btw. Could voting yes for nickelback be considered as a 'comedy option?"
 
Since when has four nights in one country been MAMMOTH!!!

mammoth venues?

no festivals then? maybe they're backing away from that :D

"we're not a festival band, we prefer soulless corporate arena's. It suits our sound and our audience feel more at ease on folding plastic seating sipping overpriced weak lager"

said a representative of the band

I expect the public reaction was similar to the one that greeted Nickelback after they whinged about heavily mined stages.
