[@melaniemeinhardt5764]

If this interview doesn't convince people that those guys are great musicians and even better human beings, I don't know what will

[@gzz8551]

It doesn’t.

[@lancejohnson7742]

Absolutely true.

[@Terri-vi5qb]

I predicted you would dabble in country! Suggesting a country album!

[@cgreenwood9327]

I love hearing Chad talk about how he comes up with songs and how the band creates things. It is nice to hear Danial's view in the interview. He doesn't talk much but it awesome to see how real these guys are.

[@lovelighttheotherside1251]

we finally get to hear Daniel's voice.

[@amysumisu]

This is hands down my favorite interview from any band at this point. What an absolute delight! I laughed, I got chills, I honestly could've sat here and listened to their stories all day. Loved this so much.

[@sarahrupert5320]

I saw these guys in concert last night & one thing I noticed was that not only do they sound great in person, but they also seem to really love performing even their older stuff. A lot of musicians/bands that have been around for awhile-you can just tell that they’re sick of playing anything from earlier albums (understandable), and therefore won’t perform much of it at their concerts. But Nickelback really wanted to give the crowd what they wanted & I appreciate that!

[@millennialaviation]

You must be in Houston? Lol

[@GeorgiaPeach365]

Chad has an amazing voice and an amazing smile . ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@bethepperson5363]

I have loved these guys since the start. I may be 63 but I love my rock and grew up on country and western. Music soothes my soul.

[@still616]

Daniel speaks!

[@DeerParkAuto]

These guys are real down to earth people. I loved their music for years and now I'm going to see them on June 30th 2023, at White River Amphitheater!! Feeling Stoked!!

[@bobbylight746]

I went front row area a couple months ago and we all still randomly say that was the best concert experience in a long time. They put on an amazing show, they seemed to really appreciate the fans.

[@beckyhodge5134]

Amazing talent. Awesome music. All around fantastic.

[@brentj.peterson6070]

Saw the boys last Friday night in Grand Rapids Michigan..🔥🎤🎸Sold out and rowdy!! Really awesome time!! Brantley Gilbert and Josh Ross were also excellent. The rock/country thing works!🔥

[@ioanaandrei2434]

Amazing musicians and human beings!❤❤❤

[@thessan701]

Supergreat interview The very best 2Men ewerywhere ❤️❤️🤟🤟

[@jeremythornton433]

Unbelievable! Fave songs? I certainly did not expect Alan Holdsworth, Dennis Champers or John McLaughlin! Very Cool!

[@marywall1837]

These two are awesome!!. Actually, I’ve been trying to write my very first song, and would love to collaborate with Chad to write the song together.

[@61cheezil]

I'm 62yo & been wit you guys since the beginning (Australia,4 concerts) & wasn't a fan of country but man the time is right for change & reinventing so I'll be on board & keen to see what's coming Plz come back to Aussie soon & if you bring Brantley I'll come along but I do love Zach Bryan a lot so .... ??

[@enjoythemomenttravel]

What an authentic down to earth interview, thank you guys for the musical insight to your creations! Luv you!💜🎶🔥🔥⚡💯

[@SMD24]

I love Nickelback, they seem to want to fuse some genres in the alternative grunge world. As a suggestion guess, I think they could fuse rap, pop country, dubstep rock/edm, r&b vibes, violin, and many more that might fit the alternative grunge world

[@jenniferiacuaniello-mullen7243]

Absolutely love the interview and the band. Craziness about the nostalgia and top songs.. in high school for me it was back in black, the black album, but when I graduated and moved to SD I was all into Ramble on… one of the best. So wonderful to see the influence, the humility as people, and the gifts as musicians. They have been on my top list to see (Eagle was too and got to see them in sac)….and can’t wait to see them in wheatland this summer! Thank you Nickelback for being a sound track to my life and an inspiration for being the best I can be!

[@chaddubois8164]

Great interview.

[@daphnewilliams403]

love you guys are the best❤

[@bunnybubs757]

There are fairly articulate , good , chill, pleasant , fun! What I’ve always expected of them ! In concert I’m surprised at all the explosion props and the non stop F bombs .. Rock n roll. Sigh

[@janettejohnston339]

Luv these guys

[@Terri-vi5qb]

Nickelback 101 !!!

[@txcuti1673]

I sang along to yours and Brantley’s music 😊

[@daphnewilliams403]

you blow me away

[@janettejohnston339]

Interesting to see rock stars when they were young with long hair etc and much thinner and compare that to the men they are now. So Interesting to see the comparison.

[@zlatkad.k.2437]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@txcuti1673]

If they add a fiddle to the band, they have a become county band. 😊

[@61cheezil]

Daniel ❤

[@KatieAus-qm1fq]

[@todds.6028]

These guys are both 48 years old. Canada don't crack.

[@sophiebee25]

Damn if Chad wanted to show me how to two-step I would combust

[@bwalker8252]

Chad and the interviewer have very similar shoes

[@roselee1974]

Lol 😂❤😂❤

[@mohamedkaram8094]

If anyone is asking about the background music: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oqPbpmehpN95brc

[@bsipe4]

Nice work - those guys are sick

[@user-li4hv8yn4]

Great interview. Kill the background music.

[@pennyboyer2505]

I think Chad is becoming more country than before. STOP! 😂

[@vinopit]

what a shitty interview. you can feel the tension between this 2 guys

[@PamelaThrasher]

All their writing style revolves around making hits 😂 total posers now and then and forever

[@todds.6028]

Nobody has ever needed a full-blown mustache more than Chad. He's second only to Sam Elliott (Google Sam Elliott Justified and you'll see what I mean)
