Dear Nickelback,
I'm confused. Do people like you or hate you? It seems that in general, people have a strong dislike, even hatred if you will towards your band yet you sell-out concerts, make #1 hits and win awards. I am very confused by you!

I support you because you are Canadian but I am constantly confused by your popularity and coinciding unpopularity. Let's look at some facts:
You have sold over 30 million records; you're ranked as the 11th best selling musical act of the 2000s, and 2nd best selling foreign act in the US behind the Beatles (seriously, the Beatles!); you won best rockband of the decade according to Billboard magazine; your song "Photograph" was named one of the top 5 most annoying songs of all-time (you beat out the Hamster Dance, ..... ?); a Facebook group named "I bet this pickle can get more fans than Chad Kroger" and indeed it did; you have frequently been berated by Rolling Stone: ""All the Right Reasons is so depressing, you're almost glad Kurt Cobain's not around to hear it.", and ""If you're looking for originality, you might want a full refund instead of a Nickelback."; and finally Jam! Canoe columnist Darryl Sterdan named lead singer Chad Kroeger the second worst singer of all time, behind Scott Stapp of Creed saying: "Nickelback's frontman may not have invented that post-grunge moose-in-heat bellow he relies on, but nobody does it better than he does. And by better, I mean worse".
Anyways, just confused as I'm sure others are. Needed that off of my chest.
Sincerely,

P.S. Chad- how do you permanently have terrible roots showing in your hair? Is this a conscious effort and fashion statement? Do you purposefully dye it this way?
