Bermuda took off the original sales figure which I believe was 49, 7??.

I'm sure of the 49,7-- though.

Seeing how the probability of a video is likely after the june 7th photo, im sure sales will increase and Al might get into the top 10

Top 10? I dunno about that...it's possible, but Al has yet to do it. A CD without a simultaneous video release would have a tough time making the top 10...even if it was a big name.

Thanks, I updated my little chart. Do you happen to know the exact numbers for the first two weeks? I can't find any kind of archive on that site.

Here?'s where they keep their archive. The "power index" for PH, which I guess is album sales, is 48,794 for week 1 and 29,075 for week 2. With the 28795 from week 3, that totals 106,664.

Thanks BW3!

Better you than me, Math was my wort subject

Wow, pretty steady sales from week 2 to week 3. Not a huge drop at all. Nice!

that totals 106,664

Well, only 393,336 more to go for a Gold Record!

A lot of people on here have been saying how good this album is doing for not having a video.

Well yea, but still... no one can deny that the lack of videoness has seriously detracted from the sales of this album. If I were Al, I think I would have a video out there by now. It's kinda hard to pick another single because there aren't too many visual songs on here. I think I'd pick "Trash Day" because I'm sure Al could think of some good ideas for it.

Hey no one ever uses this smiley on here...

There, that's better.

Hey, what are you all looking at? I only bought two copies.... so far. :lookround:

Thanks for the info! I updated my chart (again).

Okay, okay, I'll buy another copy!! Jeez, you people are relentless.

It's appreciated. But our primary goal is to get it to platinum.
