(Jam!) After little more than a decade together -- much of it spent dodging the slings and arrows of critics and other self-styled musical purists -- the members of Alberta hard-rock act Nickelback are being honoured with a spot on Canada's Walk of Fame. This should come as a surprise to absolutely no one, really. Over the past six years or so, the band has racked up a truly impressive array of awards and chart designations, including several Juno, Billboard, and American Music Awards, as well as four Grammy nominations and a cool 21 million in record sales. After the Walk of Fame ceremony in Toronto on Saturday and a trip to the MuchMusic Video Awards (they're up for five) on June 17, the band will wrap up some 17 months of touring with another North American leg that is almost certain to go into extra innings.
