I'll guess about 75,000 retail sales and 70,000 concert sales.

it would be funny if Musicology stuck with D12 the whole day like it is now and then because of the concert cd's it becomes #1..then for sure a controversy would start

The real shocker....Magnetic Fields in top 10! If those numbers hold, that'd make one happy camper to see such a great band chart so high.

hitsdaily is gonna list it at about 50k and then it will get the additional billboard 'sales' from the shows.

NOW IN: 45.11%

Oh my, he needs to release a new video (Million Days) to keep sales up.

SynthiaRose said:

Yep.

It's still doing pretty well but will stall without a new song released to radio and video.

It is interesting how much the charts change as they're counted. I wonder if smaller indie stores are counted first, which would explain a higher spot for Prince and Magnetic Fields, and now, all of the big chains are coming in, which sell a lot of Mario Winans, Hoobastank, etc.
