Due to an emergency in one of the band members' family, Nickelback has postponed tonight's Target Center concert. A makeup date has already been set for July 25, a Saturday night. All tickets for tonight's show will be honored on the new date, and more tickets will be available via AXS.com and the arena box office. More info is available on Target Center's site.

The Canadian hard-rockers also postponed Thursday night's performance in Omaha. Nothing on their website or Twitter account more directly addresses the reasons for putting off the shows nor points to more postponements.
