Nickelback

Do any of you guys here listen to Nickelback? Man, I think this is one of the best Canadian bands of all time. I've been listening to their music now for a few years. Their new song, "If Everyone Cared" is awesome!! Any of your Albertan's see these guys in concert? They must put on an awesome show.

I know a few of their songs and really like them. I haven't followed music for many years though.

Not about Nickelback but still about music. Try this site out Deane, it has all the hits of the mouldy-oldies, from 1950 to the mid 80's. I found it a couple of nights ago, and it has been bringing back a lot of memories, heck when I was playing it last night K came into the room and asked for a dance .
I'm sure it would bring back memories for a lot of people here.

Thanks Wayne. That looks like a great find. I had a quick look and its really a trip down memory lane.

BTW, I'm a big Queen and Clapton fan.

IMO... they're not bad; some great music but lead vocals just don't cut it for me.
& you really lost me with "one of the best Canadian bands of all time"
*That* title belongs to Rush.. end of story.
Not only Canadian best but one of the best period.

LOL. I don't mind Rush but they were a little before my time. For my genre at least, the Hip and Nickelback are right up there.
