Nickelback

There is already a petition in the works to replace them. Online petitions, Facebook polls and groups have tried to change music lineups and performers at important events, but I can count zero times I know of that it’s worked. Might be in a jam here football fans.
While this may not be a big deal to many of you, especially those of you who know how to use a remote control, I thought it’d be interesting to compile list of performers that are arguably more talented and that I’d rather see, just in case the NFL sees this and comes to me for suggestions.
