Quit

Nickelback quits the concert during the second song because of people throwing rocks.

Probably just a few guys. And like so many other things in life. It only takes one to ruin it for everyone else. Well, anyone that wanted to see them.

Why on earth would anyone want to throw rocks at such a talented American rock band as Nickelback?

No, but seriously, the audience had the right idea. The Portuguese want Moonspell, ******* it, not this awful, poppy, watered-down Ameritrash. That ought teach 'em to stay the hell out of Portugal.

Agreed.


I love how he threw such a ***** fit about it.

'omg we r rawk end rowl f jew!!!11'

Eh, I thought he was pretty cool about it. I've seen worse, though they definitely deserved it. When he got pegged right in the back of the head was great stuff.

didn't watch; no interest

I can still tell you they deserve it though. You know, for sucking.

Ha saw it. It's funny how when he said "Are there any Nickelback fans here!" And nobody really yelled or anything, so he turns around and someone hits him the a rock in the head! Ha brilliant, though, wasn't it a metal concert?

[QUOTE=Ch

I like a few Nickelback songs. Portugeuse(don't care about spelling) people are dicks. Seriously. They could've gone home. Why did they even come to a concert they have no intrest in?

It's a festival, not a concert dedicated to just Nickleback.

I want to give Raptor rep for both posts in this thread, especially for the Moonspell comment. And Killer Jordo deserves a negative rep for being generally idiotic about Portuguese people.

Fine, I take back what I said about the whole continent. But still, why would those few people GO to see Nickelback. It may be a festival but why would you go to that part of it? It's like EdFest in Edmonton. Just because I had an all week pass doesn't mean I went to every concert.

Wow they got owned.

I haven't read half of whats been said, because I got tired of Vamp and Raptor being gay. I happen to like Nickelback, and I think it was awesome, how they walked away. Asshole people shouldn't throw rocks. Boo them off stage if you don't like them.

I'm just going to shut up now.

Panic, Nickelback has the musical aptitude of a ****ing toad.

He can't sing, they can't play.

Walking off stage is not awesome or cool in any way, shape or form. It's a ****ing diva move and he acted like a prat.

I hope someone kicked his head in for walking off stage because, whether you are good or not, you just don't do that at a concert. It won't boost popularity, though it may raise a few fists in his direction.

And people were booing. They just added the rock for good measure.


:D

Well, obviously there was a reason as to which people threw rocks at them. Quite frankly, they must have been frustrated of sorts and had no other method to get them off stage but to throw rocks at them. Guess it worked. Though, I hate how he drank the water, kinda pisses me off.

Dont like water waste?

No it's not that. Well I don't like it but that wasn't what pissed me off. I don't really know what it was but, meh. I think it was the way he became a diva and threw the water trying to look cool and stuff, like "RAWR! I can throw TEH WATER!"

Not to mention the whole 'Rock and roll' bit.

****ing over-hyped trendy sonuva *****es need to take some lessons.

****ing American bands trying to be cool in Portugal.

So by nearly everyone's logic, the fact that some people like a band doesn't make them good, but rather they're horrible for no real reason other than your dislike of them. Seems like some serious Rule #1 violation to me.

Meh, I never said they were bad or anything. I just didn't like the lead singers attitude by trying to act all strong and cool. I liked the drummers attitude better, actually.

Well, that wasn't really my point. I was referring to the thread itself rather than the video.

[quote]oh boo-hoo someone said another band sucks. lol happens all the time, nub. Calm down and realise music is completely subjective. Let people hate all they want, let them present it as fact, because to them, it IS a fact.

I was merely reversing her logic to prove a point. And she's telling somebody that they're wrong about the band, and that they really suck no matter what anybody says. She thinks that what's fact to HER is fact to everybody else. Which is what I was getting at. If she's going to rant about them this much, then she could at least TRY and see why people might like them just a little bit. Like, I hate screamo music, but along with my reasoning of why I hate it, I can understand that people like the music for the very reasons I don't.

[quote]Wouldn't be the first time, nor the last. Like I said, you don't play to a crowd that doesn't dig your music. Why? Because of what happened to them. People are violent in the pits, they'll throw whatever **** they want if it gets their message across. That's why certain bands of specific genres tour together, so you don't end up with a emo band playing at a metal festival.

Their publicist obviously did a really sh*tty job of letting them know that, "Hey guys, these people aren't really gonna like you."

[QUOTE=Vampiro]nah, they just don't play good music. It's not even catchy. If you're not going to be talented at your instrument, at least be catchy. They can't even do that right. But hey, it's cool if you like that stuff. I mean, I like black metal.

[quote]Let people hate all they want, let them present it as fact, because to them, it IS a fact.

Heh. You just proved my point and made me agree with you in one fell swoop. Well done.

Edit: So it was a metal festival, then?

Why? Because I don't like it when people pass off their opinion as a hard fact, instead of admitting that it's just their opinion. Bottom line.

Not at all, but I felt like getting my point across. I am allowed to make post, right?

Probably not. I've been in my fair share of arguments about music and people rarely change their stance.

Yeah, an opinion, not a fact. Drop it.

But at that particular concert, was it a metal festival or no?

They've got fans. They obviously have some form of talent. :rolleyes:

[Quote]Do people like them? Yes. Do people think they're a good band? Yes. Does that mean they're talented? No.

Case in point. It doesn't seem like they'd have any fans at all if they were really that untalented, now would they?

If it sells, then obviously someone does.

Apply this to any band, not just Nickelback. You see them as untalented because you don't like them, but that's not fact. Neither is the opposite fact, so quit trying to pass either as such.

I'm honestly wondering why the fuck I'm even bothering right now. Good job.

It's not for you to decide if they're talented or not. You may think they are or aren't, but that doesn't make it fact. Vampiro's already covered that, though, so I guess I concede. No point in continuing a pointless debate.

To each their own. You might think they're good, I don't.

I went a bit out of hand, but I'm a ***** when it comes to proving my point. Or trying to, anywho.



And I just think that anyone who plays guitar, or sings or plays drums can say that a lot of the things they play/sing many dedicated musicians work on for a year or two to get to the level they're at.


But eh. What do I know, right?

TALENT ISN'T SUBJECTIVE.

Yea. I watched the video. They play, rocks thrown, stops, gives audience speech, gets pegged, flips off crowd, leaves.

But what I'm getting at is that Viccica said "IT'S NOT COOL TOO LEAVE AT ALL OMGOMGMOMGOMG"

What did you want them to do? Stay there and look even more like idiots?
Best to leave.

Oh, I didn't read the part where she implied they were supposed to stay. But they should have just left. Nothing more.

Yeah, I love it when he actually takes the time to ask whether they want to go home or listen to some rock 'n' roll. OBVIOUSLY THEY WOULD RATHER GO HOME THAN LISTEN TO YOUR BAD MUSIC THAT IN FACT'S OPINION TAKES NO TALENT TO PLAY, IMBECILE. THEY'RE THROWING ****ING ROCKS AT YOU.
