I've always liked them on record, live they are terrible. I saw them several years ago up in Cheyenne, WY, Pop Evil opened. Pop Evil TOTALLY stole the show, Nickelback guys were slow, lazy and uninspired. The real low was when they brought a lady from the crowd "to help" sing, I think it was either "Photograph" or "Rockstar," can't quite remember, the girl was completely drunk, but they let her have the mic....way too long. Just bad.
