    Do any rock songs chart there anymore? When was the last time a bonafide rock band charted on the mainstream board? Nickleback doesn't count.

      I haven't looked at the Billboard chart for 15 years.

        dude, didn't you guys boo them out of some hockey game recently? Or threaten to boycott the game? I know something went down where the fans were pissed about having to see that crap band.

          So I'm browsing Billboard for Van Halen & find this sure to be a nugget of a tune...

            Actually that was the Lions vs. Packers thanksgiving day game at Ford Field, in which Nickelhacks were going to play the halftime show. Fans of both teams were pissed, as well as the Lions fans who lived across the border in the Windsor, ONT metro area.

                I'm afraid the Nickleback freaks are all the fucking banjo pluckin' hillbillies here in the West. They're from Saskatchewan, and the loyalty here is almost as strong as it is to the Riders football team. (HUGE). I don't get it at all, because there are some GOOD rocking indie bands here, many of which are on the soundtrack for the tv series I'm in. Unfortunately, this is the land of fucking country music...and Nickleshit.

                  Nickelback are from Hanna Ab. but I hear ya.

                  Here is Saskatoon there is a fair amount of Nickelback hatred but I bet the concert sells out at Credit Union Centre....14,000 ish depending on the stage set up.

                  Our Rock station is pretty weak here...we were gone for a week so I have no idea how well Tattoo went over.

                  Have you heard any rumours at all about a Sask. date?
                  I read on 102's Facebook that something went up and came down just as fast for Saskatoon.

                  As for the Riders.....what a shit year....but we bleed green...

                      Is there a lot of meth addicts in Nickelback country? I hear that a lot of Meth from the USA is imported to that part of the country, while the weed is sent to us damn yanks.

                        You'd figure a lot more british music would be popular in Canada.

                              Sheepdogs are from Saskatoon.

                              Been enjoying them at various outdoor events for a few years...glad to see they are getting some airplay nation wide.
