Wow. So much hate for Nickelback yet nobody on this site or even in America can name the lead singer.

BTW, his name is Chad Kroeger.

Of course, if someone throws a shirt filled with candy at Justin Beiber, people get their panties in a bunch because he's still a kid. How many rappers have been shot and at this point, no-one's surprised? I'm sorry, but that is NOT okay. If you're going to complain about people doing this, something so harmless, then you had better set a field on fire when a rapper gets shot. If you're a fan of Beiber, then whatever, some people have different tastes in music. But if you're going to word your post like this, then you're suggesting that you aren't a fan of Beiber and you're just angry that someone would do this to any old celebrity. In that case you cannot complain about Beiber having candy thrown at him when rappers have to live with the fact that they can be shot at any point in time. A precedent has been set for shooting rappers, so they have to live in fear of that, whether they admit it or not.

I actually knew his name. What difference does it make?

It doesn't make any difference. Just stop refering him to "that Nickelback guy". That's like saying "that guy from The Beatles".

And no, I'm not comparing Nickelback and The Beatles. THAT IS STUPID.

Yea, and it's depressing how many people like music so superficial and basic. Also, you can hate Led Zeppelin and Floyd all you want, but that's not really the point. I was just commenting on how being famous in the music industry required talent back then. Bieber has absolutely no talent, and he doesn't even write his own songs.

Just curious btw, what kind of music do you listen to?



"It's people like you...blah blah blah". How is me posting on a forum stunting a guy thousands of miles away from making good music? I'm open to any artist but the truth is there really isn't that much expression and creativity these days, especially in popular music. If there was I'd be the first to buy, but there isn't. Also I don't have a hard on for the 70s, I listen to a lot of music from different genres and time periods.

You could have seriously injured this kid. Put him in the hospital. I know I might sound extreme, but what if it killed him?

The truth is there is ABSOLUTELY TONS of it. With the technology out, almost anyone can get their ideas down. Things are just a lot more niche these days since people can find a perfect fit, instead of having to pick one of the few things to make it to CD like it used to be. In the mainstream, no , but that's looking in the wrong place. Obviously the most interesting things aren't going to be in the mainstream, which is diluted to appeal to the widest demographic.

No I don't hate his fans, cause to each his own (delusional) opinion. I hate his music more than anything else, and yes, there are indeed many bad bands for every good band. It's just a shame that such talentless hacks like Miley Cyrus, Bieber, and the Jonas Brothers get so much support when their music is the same generic cookiecutter music that the industry is spewing out.

Then you don't like the newspapers. There's no good reason to not like Bieber because of what the media decides to report on.
