I actually saw them in concert in 2001 before they were in the national spotlight, opening for 3 Doors Down...and you know what, they put on a great show live.

They're not the most talented band, but I don't see anything about them worthy of all of the hate. If anything, you could call their music boring.

They are really horrible bands more worthy of attracting mass hatred like Papa Roach, Slipknot, Blink 182, Limp Bizkit, Green Day...these bands sound horrible live, act like complete a-holes and are generally annoying to even look at. At least Nickelback sounds decent live and other than looking like Jesus, there's nothing really inciting or controversial about how they look.

I might have to fight you over calling Green Day horrible.
