Nickelback\u0027s induction into the Canadian Music Hall at the Juno Awards in Edmonton, marks a “weird” milestone for the rockers from Alberta.

“It does feel wonderful to be recognized like that, especially with all the hard work we’ve done around the world. When you get to come back home and they throw the medal around your neck, it feels really good.”

“A lot of times we were just playing to bar staff. I remember being in Winnipeg at the Royal Albert and they were just smashing glasses on the dance floor. There were so many shows where we thought, ‘This is just horrific,’ but looking back on it, if we hadn’t gone through that it wouldn’t have given us the backbone, I guess, we have now. You can tell which bands didn’t have to go through those things.

“It was like everyone’s hung over,” Kroeger recalled with a laugh. “You’ve got to reach out there and get a hold of them and not let go for the rest of the show. We needed to make sure they left thinking, ‘I was not intending on having that good a time.’ Our job was to get everybody, literally, just singing along.”

These guys are a Canadian success story. Came from small town Alberta, moved furniture by day and play bar gigs at night. They've done very well 👍

Still not watching

Can't say I'm a big fan, but their induction is well deserved. 50 million albums sold is no small feat, especially for a Canadian band. Congratulations to Nickelback for your well deserved induction in to the Canadian music hall of fame!

This isn't a time for jokes

Boycott nickel back It’s crap music
