Nickelback tour plans revealed

When Nickelback hit the road next month on their North American tour, the band certainly won't have any shortage of hits to play. The challenge will be fitting new songs from the group's latest effort, All The Right Reasons, into the set. Frontman Chad Kroeger explained how the band goes about choosing those tunes:

And it's also great to look on our web site and find out where the people are voting, you know, because we allow them to vote for their favorite songs and they put their lists, and so you look on there and you find out the most popular songs on the album, and make sure that those ones are definitely getting included into the set."

Nickelback will begin the US leg of their North American tour on January 30th in Duluth, Minnesota, with Trapt along as special guests. The trek is expected to last well into March.

"Animals" is the second single from their fifth album, All The Right Reasons, which has sold 1.3 million copies since its early October release. The record is on a pace to outsell Nickelback's two previous efforts, 2001's Silver Side Up and 2003's The Long Road.
