United Kingdom vs. Nickelback

2014-10-09 by ASnideReturns | 29 Comments
It seems as though Canadian hard rockers Nickelback can't catch a break anywhere they play; a group of United Kingdom music listeners have started up a crowdfunded effort to convince Nickelback to ignore the United Kingdom as a whole.

They're asking for a total of $1,000 dollars (all of which will be donated to charity) and emails will be sent out on the behalf of the donors. So far they've amassed over a quarter of their goal.

You can read all the details and benefits of donation here on the campaign site "Don't Let Nickel Back":

What a bunch of ignorant morons. If you don't like them, don't watch them but there are many people out there who do like them. I'm not a fan of Nickelback either but I'm so over all the people who think it's cool to hate on them.

haha this is pretty funny. and it's generating a nice amount of money for charity. hopefully they don't ACTUALLY send those emails to nickelback since it would be disrespectful, and hopefully the backers aren't expecting them to. i like the FAQ.

People are kidnapped and killed elsewhere and the biggest problem they have is Nickelback touring in GB. That's not even ridiculus, it's offensive.

it's a little joke that happens to be raising a bit of money for charity in the process. i don't think it's meant to be taken seriously. the FAQ and desciptions of the rewards make it pretty clear they're just goofing around.

If people spent all their time whining about all the dead/kidnapped people in the world it would be an even bigger waste of time for them tbh

This is so disrespectful. Hating Nickelback is the stupidest fad ever. Atleast hate on someone who deserves it like Katy Perry.

****Update 2: Chad Kroeger has responded to this campaign, saying he "loves it." We therefore expect all Nickelback fans to immediately contribute, as it will make him very happy. If you don't support our efforts to ban Nickelback, you'll be going against Nickelback. Is that what you want?


lol

You guys are getting really mad about money being raised for charity.

This band's music is terribly nauseating to me but I'm sure they can take a joke and it gives them even more publicity. Plus it's for charity/possibly therapy for victims of the band's music.

This is so petty. I mean:

1 claimed

Your donation will result in an email to Nickleback with an attached mp3 of Nickelback's music. This way,
the band will hear their own music, and likely retire immediately, thereby ensuring the success of our
campaign. You also get the added bonus of not seeing Nickelback. And perhaps helping to ensure no one ever
does again.

Estimated Delivery: eternity
