Now I don't think Nickelbacks in that league but lets not fool ourselves into thinking they're the only ones writing the same songs.

Now I in no way think Nickelback is anything great, I also don't really like most of their stuff but the hatred is so stupid. If you read about them they love to party, drink, get laid. Sounds like Rock n Roll to me. Actually sounds a lot more rock n roll then all these damn hipster bands with their whiny songs, skinny jeans and lame beards who can barely play guitar and for some reason im supposed to believe its really artistic.
Thank you.

My grandmother used to say, Jealousy is a fever. And there are many here jealous of NB. Whine and deny it all you want but just about every guy here would donate his left nut for a career like theres or to record a band like them. I`m out...

You don`t need any more gear, you need to re-write the chorus.
