seriously, this band has a slew of #1 singles (back in the day when #1 singles actually meant it was a good song) and they unseated the f**king BEATLES with American Woman. That in itself (equal to Nirvana unseating Michael Jackson) is noteworthy.

how is this band not in the american rock n roll hall of fame? they were inducted into the canadian hall of fame years ago.

    Its a Canadian conspiracy thing....RUSH isn't even in there, and another great band, the Tragically Hip, will never enter the conversation either..yet guarenteed, one day, Nickelback and Justin Beiber will grace those "hallowed halls"...R&R HOF is a joke

    yeah, I know it is, but it still seems weird to me.
