Seether and Saving Abel have signed on as support acts. Nickelback tickets are on sale here. This is Nickelback's first tour under their Live Nation Artist Nation deal which was announced earlier this year. Nickelback are a phenomenally successful touring band whose tours have grossed in excess of $100 million thus far and have sold more than 30 million albums worldwide. Dark Horse is Nickelback's first release since the immensely popular All The Right Reasons, released in 2005. In support of the album, the band has recently appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and The American Music Awards. Critics and fans alike are praising Dark Horse. The New York Times raved, "Nickelback ... has been responsible for some of the heaviest pop hits of this decade and more notably, it has almost single handedly preserved the idea of the arena-rock ballad." Entertainment Weekly declared, "The only sure thing in the music business in 2008." The first single, "Gotta Be Somebody," is topping the charts with impressive numbers: Top 5 Rock, Top 10 Modern, Top 5 Hot A/C and Top 15 at Pop.
