New Album: Sales Predictions?

[Unglued]

Sales plummet 70% this week for STP.  They sold 18,600 units.   That would total around 80-81k so far in the US.  Take a Load Off better take off!!

Wow that is a pretty big dip... no other way to put it.  I agree, I hope TALO takes off.
Too bad about these sales... People are missing a terrific record.

People have lousy tastes. I can't believe people would prefer buying a Jack Johnson album. Every album sounds the same and its about the same topics. Must be some payola involved.

And Jack Johnson seriously did sell 250K. 
Justin Bieber's sales rose 7% week over week. 

Based on that, I would say that old fans rushed out to purchase the new record when it was released and they aren't building any sort of new fanbase. Come on and release the single guys. Too bad nobody plays videos anymore. That may give them some exposure. Although I bet they would have a hard time getting in the rotation of Justin Beiber, Miley Cyrus, and the like.

Justin Bieber is a 100% payola scam.

Well, I bought another copy of the album to give to someone as a gift, so I recommend everyone do the same!

I've purchased 3 copies so far. It's all my budget will allow.

Im all for supporting the band but Im not going to buy 8 copies of the album.  I got the standard cd and Im just going to buy the vinyl and done.

Im paying $70 for a concert ticket and possilbly some merch. Damn Im supporting the hell out of those 4 assholes

I think I am going to buy another copy to keep in my husbands car

Why not get two?

I have a question. Does the sales chart take into account all the different versions of the album? Or just the standard 12 track disc?

[disasterami]

Its gettin very annoying seeing Justin Beiber, Scorpions, Slash, Lamb Of God (The only reason LOG is there is coz they came here [India] to perform) cd's on the rack in these stores and STP not to be seen yet  If STP came here to perform, in a week's time, all their albums would have been on the rack and the new one glorified!!!!  N sales would be crazy too

Justin Beiber, Scorpions, Slash, Lamb Of God 

Is it just or me, or does anyone think of that Seseme Street song, 'Which one of these don't belong?'

[DankoJones]

Yeah the Scorpions should not be on that list
