Nickelback's Hall of Fame induction: 'Are we supposed to be there?'

Published: 

Nickelback on releasing a new album, hall of fame Nickelback band members Chad Kroeger and Ryan Peake talk about their new album and upcoming induction into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame.

Reflecting on their upcoming induction into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, members of Alberta rock band Nickelback say they don't quite know how to feel about the honour.

"It's fantastic that they even considered that for us. I mean that's something I think people would love to have in their career and we do for sure," guitarist Ryan Peake told CTV's Your Morning in a pre-recorded interview broadcast Monday.

"But it's one of those things where it's like I don't even know, are we ready? Are we supposed to be there with those people?"

"We don't deserve this," bandmate and lead vocalist Chad Kroeger said with a laugh.
