Nickelback Hates Guitar Hero/Rock Band
Chad Kroeger has stated that he wants the kids to stop playing Guitar Hero and Rock Band and pick up a real guitar and start a real rock band.
"I feel like there's not enough rock bands out there, especially when we go on the road," said Kroeger, who performs with the Canadian rock outfit on "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno" on Wednesday night. "It's tough to find other bands out there, because either they're making a record, or they just got done touring. So kids: Start rock bands. Set down the 'Guitar Hero,' learn how to play an actual guitar and start a band, because it's hard to find more bands to put a solid rock-and-roll package together, to get out there. It's getting harder and harder, but I think we've done it."
Well Chad, you apparently have never seen this site. (Thank god because we would probably be sued) This site is littered with bands that have the "rock and roll package" and have more artistic and musical integrity than Chad Kroeger and Nickelback.
I don't think Chad gets it. No one wants to tour with you because you suck. It would be rock career suicide if a band like Rev Theory or Bang Camaro went on tour with you. Sure they would be playing to packed houses every night, but the Nickelback fans wouldn't know good rock music if it waltzed into their house, fucked their daughter/mom/wife, all while yelling "This is good rock n roll and I am fucking your wife."
