    Album Sales predictions-What do you think?

    Pollstar expects 200,000-250,000 1st week.

    I'll try and be realistic but will say 375,000 units. I will buy 2 regular for car & special edition for home.

    Dave said no vinyl at this point.

    Thursday wife see's this set-up, rolled eyes and went upstairs saying she wished she could get this excited for something. My bro's wife said same to him. Must PACE this, do not plan on overdoing this year. She is good for 1 with me and another 1 or 2 max. If I do 7 it will not be conducive to having wife & kids

    Mission control..
    uStream for big monitor, old mac VHND & active laptop-Army & WARF Twitter, iPhone everything in between. F uStream's farce, it's up now showing some band. They just pulled plug on it last night!


    all is good as the 4 clips from dead center pretty much got whole show with good HD & tolerable sound. 24 hrs after event satisfied seeing all pics & vids......& WARF owning the place

      So what is the reason for NO VINYL?!

      I predict 250 to 300 thousand the first week.

              Hello Sarge, in the video where Dave does the signing out front of CafeWha? He says "I don't know if were going to do vinyl." I would bet a year or two of great sales they do wind up with limited edition vinyl run.

              Some bands are using Apollo Masters. Aluminum substrate for highest quality lacquer masters, if 6-pack was done by them we'd have another treat. Most done by hand & long process but worth it.

                  Regardless.....I see this album as selling more than any other album in recent history.....you only have 33 YEARS OF FUCKING VAN HALEN FANS....who have been waiting 28 YEARS for this!

                  And of course, the figures you guys are throwing around are for first WEEK.

                  I say platinum in a month. 6 weeks tops.

                      if sales stopped at one more than Chickenfoot sold, i'd be happy.

                              Black Ice did 98.000 in the first week I think. That was a big number for a rock band. If VH does close to 200 that is huge !

                                      I hope there are HUGE endcaps of this new cd with lots of advertising in each store. I'm sure there will be. Gotta make friends with a Best Buy employee to snag me the merchandise holders once they take them down.

                                          Consider the band has not one but two Diamond status albums.....

                                          If it doesn't at least go platinum would be a big surprise!

                                                  Vh 3 stalled at 500.000. Thats why Ed's new brother Gary was sent packing.
