Nickelback were in the spotlight on Sunday night when they won three Juno Awards, and they'll use that buzz to generate sales for the newly announced summer leg of their North American tour in support of last year's Dark Horse.

Vocalist/guitarist Chad Kroeger, bassist Mike Kroeger, guitarist Ryan Peake and drummer Daniel Adair will be on the road throughout April and May before they take a break in June. But they'll hit the highway again for two months' worth of U.S. dates (and a Toronto gig) with Papa Roach, Hinder and Saving Abel starting on July 10.
