What is Digg?46 Comments
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+32Even though I hate Nickelback (mediocre rock FTW!) I would do the exact same thing. Hell, he even stopped and gave them a chance.
- sockpuppets, on 10/12/2007, -5/+27The crowd wanted their nickel back.
- FBMGriever, on 10/12/2007, -1/+22Indeed. Their music is definitely rock-toss worthy but I must admit I too would question as to whether or not playing would be worth my time if nobody cared.
- evensong, on 10/12/2007, -2/+19Marked as inaccurate. You called Nickelback a "Hardrock band".
j/k =P. But seriously... - Cbeck527, on 10/12/2007, -1/+15BOOM HEADSHOT!
sorry replied to wrong comment :( - Makubex, on 10/12/2007, -4/+14I laugh hysterically every time I see this.
- pento, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Ah, Nickleback. They wouldn't know rock if it hit them in the head.
*rimshot* - AmishRefugee, on 10/12/2007, -3/+11looks like somebody in the crowd watched this too many times
http://www.*****.net/nickelback.htm - elCapitanNemo, on 10/12/2007, -7/+15***** Portugal, I don't even like Nickleback but feel for them
- rugger, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Maybe I'm just annoyed with how much they play their crap on the radio, but I take offense that nickelback is referred to as 'hard rock'
- lansuggs, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6I have to say they handled themselves exactly right: any band would do the same. Who goes to a concert and have no appreciation for a band? Didn't know 2002
- nikkesen, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Considering that they had rocks thrown at them, the finger seems rather civil.
- MyKungFu, on 10/12/2007, -3/+8Wow. This is why I love digg. So I can read something that happened in 2002!
http://www.chartattack.com/damn/2002/08/2109.cfm - NewPunk, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Why are they throwing rocks if they went to their show? Nickelback suck overall, but hell, if you're paying to go to a show and throw rocks at the performers, you sir are an *****.
- scottylist, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4cuz NickelBack were the opener for a pair of siamese portuguese acrobatic monkeys that whistle.
- bouche, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Oh, they had every right to get off the stage. I'd love footage of the backstage banter right afterwards.
- praisethelard, on 06/06/2008, -1/+4Yeah, I'd probably cry backstage.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Wow, luckily you haven't heard punk..
- EricCiccone, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Nickelback is not music, they deserved what they got, I'm glad Portugal knows what is and what is not music.
- zforrester, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3and i quote:
"Wow. This is why I love digg. So I can read something that happened in 2002!" - NitrousFlare, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Dugg for the word "pelted"
- TheBrandman, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3This is about as close as Nickelback gets to anything remotely related with rock.
- flamingmb, on 10/12/2007, -3/+4wow thats bad, the drums are exactly the same. So is the tempo. I hate them even more now.
- sdrawkcaB, on 10/12/2007, -3/+4The last thing thrown looked like a water bottle rather than a rock.
- SystmBetatester, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2forgive me if im wrong but didnt this happen a long time ago? anyway never listened to them...ah well seems like im not missing anything, but why go to a concert and boo em off stage.. everyone knows concerts are about weed and sex FTW!
- mr.hostility, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I kiss you!
- scooby2, on 10/12/2007, -3/+4Same category as Creed in my book. Anyone listening to either should be put out of their misery immediately.
- dudemaster, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Luckily for Nickelback people only have two ears - otherwise we could probably add a few more songs to this auto-plagiarism demonstration.
- Koskun, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3This was quite comical when it came up... like 4 months ago.
- telexgalt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1this happened like 4 years ago, in Portugal. Where the hell has everyone been?!
- trogdor282, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Straylight Run played at my campus for a free show and some high school douchebags threw stuff at them. And they kept playing - emo FTW!!!
- Alcorr, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Two things here:
1. Why go to a nickelback concert if you don't like them...why bother buying tickets?
2. Nickelback had every right to walk off the stage, I would have done the same thing and flipped em off too... - Maxo1128, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Hah, serves them right, they take themselves way too seriously. Their fanbase is based solely on radioplay. Not to mention that there are a million and one other bands that sound JUST like them.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Tempo's have been changed, as well as pitch. Not an accurate comparison. Tons of songs use the exact same song structure and chord progression.
- wickedscholar, on 06/04/2008, -0/+0What a bunch of *****! Nickelback blows. They have to be the *****, most overrated band in the world right now.
- carnytrash, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2Maybe I should post the All Your Base video and maybe even the dancing baby animation since everything that's old is new again here on Digg.
- TheHessian, on 10/12/2007, -4/+4This is *****.
Nickelback may blow, but nobody has the right to injure another person, let alone somebody up on stage performing.
We are up there working, doing our jobs, and while I'm a tough s.o.b, anything hard that is thrown with force is going to hurt and possibly injure if it makes contact.
I guess the person who threw that is lucky, because if it was a Hardcore/Metal act, they would have jumped off of the stage and beat him senseless...
I'll probably be Dugg down for this, but I just think that people should be more respectful than that.
What goes around comes around...
The Hessian - TheNik, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3Yeah, too bad they didn't ***** put him in a coma. Then maybe they wouldn't have come out with their newer CD. :(
- Jozer99, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I don't like Nickelback, but as a musician, I definitely sympathize. Imagine trying to play while people are throwing rocks at you. If you don't like Nickelback, why go to one of their concerts?
- Zinite, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Never get tired of seeing this. At the 44 second mark, you see one hit him right in the head.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1they shouldnt have walked out but called more security in and tossed the ppl that were throwing things out.
- chaiulud, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0ugh. not hard rock. and indeed... funny.
- SweeterThnEqual, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1The middle finger at the end... real classy.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -5/+2I like Nickelback.
- nesibus, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2need to change their name to RockBack
