Good to see Daniel still with the band. Such an incredible drummer I played a handful of shows with 3 Doors Down in the early 2000's when he was their drummer. Such a nice guy. His nightly drum solos were a treat. I used to take his drum heads out of the trash can when his tech would change them out. I was broke and the heads were just about perfect. We were playing for the troops back then. Good times.

i've never been a huge nickleback fan, but always took notice of his drumming, especially on 'far away' which is a song i loved. Very powerful and just seemed like a perfect pocket drummer. Served the song 100%.

Daniel is amazing, I remember seeing him for 3DD too, then found David Martone because of him. When he went to Nickelback it was an exciting change as I already listened to them. But nothing compares too seeing Daniel with Dave Martone live in small venues (even after Nickelback), both guys are just top of their class. Was lucky enough to purchase the snare from the kit f Long and McQuade supplied for a show and is my favorite, daily snare for like 15ish years.

I think the crux of the Nickelback hatred is this: They never intended to be taken totally seriously, they had a tongue-in-cheek element to many of their songs, and Metal Elitists don't know how to handle that, and its those people who had the biggest issue. When people gripe about Nickelback and they say, "Well their stuff is just super formulaic, like 'Someday' is EXACTLY the same as "How you Remind Me'." Then, fine. Fair criticism. Except it's never that, it's always some dope who listens to some Trap music with 2 chords in the whole song and are like, "Man Nickelback sucks, they're so formulaic." Then you KNOW they're full of BS. And that's 90% of the people who don't like Nickelback.

I've always defended Nickelback when I heard people hating on them, not because I was a fan, but because they got blamed for things many other bands and artists were much worse at.

Excellent interview. Everyone is so relaxed and real. Doesn't matter how much money you have, as long as your real and love what you do. Fav band for over 25 years. So glad your back on stage again. Keep rocking!!!!🥰❤❤🤘🍻

Recently I feel like I’ve been seeing a pushback online against Nickelback . Seems like things are shifted and people are admitting they have bangers.

Man! This was a ton of fun! Being a metalhead, I´m loving Nickelback nice "Leader Of Men" dropped on MTV. Fucking love this band! Great musicians, great live band and a great sense of humor. Perfect!^^

Man I hope you guys read this! I always liked you and I even fought with strangers on Facebook when they talked shit. Your guys rock! I saw you guys at Bluesfest in Ottawa and every person in the crowd sang along to all the words. I've always been down and always spoke up.

Chad Kroeger is hilarious. Holy shit is he funny.

Best band ever to me still after all these years don't know much singer that can sing all of there song live and sounds the same way to go love you guys ❤️

I wasn't the biggest Nickelback fan, but they were overhated because they were mainstream. A lot of rock fans looked at them as sellouts. Reality is a lot of bands from that generation sold out. Maroon 5, Good Charlotte, Fall Out Boy, Coldplay. I feel like given the state of music (particularly rock), they're looked at more fondly.

They are still one of my favorite bands of all time.

I love them - and when i have them cranking - never turned it down- people always get in my face being haters - i just laugh and say - another thing to make me unique ❤

Just bought tickets tonight, to see them next month at White River Amphitheater!! Feeling Stoked.....will be my first time seeing Nickelback, and first time at this venue!!

21:35 - A prison podcast....that's actually a genius idea if it could happen 👀

My profile picture is from your concert,My wife and I absolutely loved the live show in Cape Town in December 2013 at Grand West Casino,South Africa. Then you made the tribute to the late Nelson Mandela and we were all blown away. What a truly AMAZING night, thank you guys you were Awesome..Rock on!!!!!!!!!!!

I never thought much about Nickleback. Yea, I heard some songs on radio or internet but simply didn't give those guys much thought. Until my wife got tickets for her company's box seats and I saw them live. My wife never heard of them and doesn't think much of rock music. But she actually enjoyed their show also. They sounded awesome. They were fun, entertaining and rocked the house. I've only been to 3 concerts in the past 20 years due to costs. But I loved their show just as much as the other two I attended, Hall & Oates and Megadeth.

Bro I so enjoyed what they talked about 😂😂😂 Chad is lit I was laughing my ah ofg

one of favorite bands. love them a lot

I’m a hard core fan even have lyrics tattooed on my body I have never missed them when they come to Saskatoon I pray they come back on this tour

i went to a NB concert back when they were very popular. it was an outside amphitheater. as soon as we got out of the car it started raining and rained the entire time and was the best concert iv ever been to

Luv the stories!!

Great interview lads....

Saw them live in 2014, best sound production I have ever heard

those dudes are totally deserving of the fame. I never hated them but they always set a pace for "new grunge" music while I was still stuck on nu-metal. i wish em all the best and might even go see em one day if my anxiety allows

I loved Chad’s stories- “What is Wrong with you?” He is hilarious 😂 I have loved Nickelback for years. So glad I was was able to go and see them this past week. Great show! 😎

These guys seem really cool, and I regret ever saying anything bad about them when I was younger. My best to you gentlemen!

One of my most beloved bands and always will be people are just jealous because of you're talent

Still one of my all time favorite bands!

1 guy so happy to talk about being in nickleback. 2 guys that know they're in nickleback

There is something for everyone with Nickelback....loved every album!

Nickelback and Creed both get the same media treatment. Therefore, they are acts of perfection!

I cried after listening to San Quentin for the first time. Shook me to my core that a band could capture my inner being so perfectly.

Any chances we get to hear the betrayal act II? :D

The wiping his tears with dollar bills popped me so hard. Comedy gold.

I’ve LOVED NICKELBACK ever since my daughter left “Something in your mouth” on my computer. And that was 14 years ago when she moved from Santa Barbara CA to Idaho to live with her Dad. And I STILL LOVE YOU GUYS AT 67 !!!

Holy shit these guys are good. For years theyve been painted as a band whos not self aware but theyre fucking spot on.

They have such a great sense of humour.

I've been listening to Nickelback since I was in elementary school and then Silver Side Up just came out

Not only do I wear my concert t-shirt proudly but my teenager does as well!🤘

I never understood this and always jam to the classics I heard on the radio to this day.

They are one of the greatest rock live bands of our time. Their live sound is out of this world

Been listening FOREVER to you guys! And, my 25 and 21 yr olds are all about this band. I told em' when they got older...."okay, we're done with camping songs....we're listening to mom's music now 😆😁. What could they do, i was their taxi driver😁! We all love you guys!

Always loved them since they started ! And they are from Hanna, Alberta ,my home province

I'll never forget when the video for How You Remind me came out. I was staying up late, drinking bourbon and in a somewhat bad place mentally. I cried alone watching it. It was tough times for me at the time and the depression was strong. Soon after, I was picking my daughter up for weekend visitation (thus why I was in depression...divorce) and she brought a friend with her. They were maybe 12-13 and they were in the back seat, totally dissing Nickelback and that video. I didn't get it then, and I dont get the hate since. I lost interest in Nickelback, like with most bands, when they got money and fame and the albums got more and more "produced" and commercial sounding. I may go and take a listen to some of the later stuff and see if there is anything that appeals to my hard rock self. I still carry some of the old songs in my life mix, refined over 30 years of the best of the best for me. I liked these guys in this interview. Seem like real good dudes.

I have definitely talked my shit about this band thru the years. I think I was supposed to being a metal head back in the day. But they really seem like some down to earth guys. And their first album was definitely good

This literally had my eyes watering! So frikking good. 😂😂🤣🤣🤣

What a great interview love Nickleback and right on Ryan's child was born in the same year as my son. I will tour the world with my band i will make it happen.

Hating Nickleback is the original meme. Wildly accepted/popular for no reason, adds nothing to society, and totally stupid. NICKLEBACK DESERVES NOTHING BUT LOVE!!!

I’ve never understood the Nickelback hate they’re one of my top favorite bands of all time

My favs by them are Savin Me and Too Bad. But I can sing along with all their songs.

I always hold people accountable when they trash Nickleback. They’re excuse is usually, “all their songs sound the same”. Oh you mean they have their own sound, like AC/DC does or Def Lep? Burn it to the ground is one of the ultimate kickass tunes of all time.

On what minute they discuss the question?

BRING BACK NICKLEBACK! NEVER HATED NICKELBACK TO BEGIN WITH

Just seen them tonight in Nashville. They were soooo fucking good!!

Chad hits it bang on when he says most people turn down the songs while pulling up to lights , just to speed off and turn it up lmao

Nickelback was kind of the bridge when Creed fell apart, Foo was really coming into their own and for some strange reason Pearl Jam was 100% different than the first 3 albums they put out. Nothing wrong with sounding the same... if its not broke dont fix it.

On my internet radio show they are the only band or artist we’ve done who won 12-0 in their battle against creed!

Ryan is starting to look like Al Borland and I can't unsee it...

I loved Nickel back off the rip, I introduced their music to many people in the black community and many other, Rock and Roll band

I definitely turned Nickelback down yesterday in my car lol But I always openly rocked them.

Love nickelback since 2000❤

Saw them play back in 1997 at the SAIT campus, and it was an amazing show! The reason (at least around Calgary, as it was repeated on the radio) that people got a hate on for nickleback is that apparently Chad likened making a song to making a burger. The connotation is that you just keep doing the same process over and over again with no creativity. Add that to the other similar bands that came out "theory of a nickleback" at the time and it got played out pretty quick.

They sold over 50 million records. They are crazy successful on a global scale. They play the biggest arena in every country they play in. Any "hate" is simply jealousy.

Bought all heir albums, this is real music to listen too.

It is sad that people need the internet to tell them if they like a band or not. I like Nickelback.

Years ago I threw shade but now it's like... dude have you seen a Nickelback show? They sound just like they do in the studio when the sound setup is right. One of the few bands to carry on being rockstars.

legit musicians. At the end of the day, making money writing songs is super cool
