I can can't believe I got tickets. What a show, with warm up bands Papa Roach and Saving Able.

This one's gonna last a while, starting at 7 PM.

Are we havin' fun yet?

I like both, too. I'm taking my son and daughter to the show, and maybe the wife. We'll see.

If not, I might have an extra ticket.

Have a good time.

Every time I see "Hinder", I think of somebody's butt. I know it's the short/soft i sound, but I'm actually 12 years old IRL.

I am not jealous at all. I am very happy you get to go and got your tickets!

Enjoy - and I hope the kiddos and wifey do too!

Watch the vid. You'll feel better. All the cars look familiar. :)

For the record, I would kill myself if I was unfortunate enough to get Nickelback tickets. They make me ashamed of being Canadian.

The tickets are sorta a birthday gift for my daughter, but I get one.


I did this last year for my daughter's 20th. I took her to Leonard Cohen.

Somehow I doubt namedropping will help me get backstage with the family in this case.

"Hey, I know Semi-Large Intestine!"

"Security!"

I can't understand some of the Canadian dislike for Nickelback. I heard there's a radio station there which won't play any of their music, a 'no Nickelback guarantee'.

For me, I like most of their stuff, and it sure as hell beats rap. Thankfully Rock has made a successful comeback thanks to bands like Nickelback, Creed, the Killers, Hinder, Blue October, etc.

Love 'em or hate 'em, you have to admit it's great that they pushed rap into the garbage bin where it belongs.

For those who don't know Hinder, this one is their break-out hit:

It was also a country hit in a remake by Jack Ingram.

For Nickelback, this was their break-out #1 hit:

But this fun little ditty has done pretty well, too:

My objective was to make you feel inferior to my obviously superior connections. Tremble in my greatness.
