IYD on Billboard Chart
 

IYD has re-entered the charts at #181 this week. GO STEVIE!
Now we just need to find a way to make it stay on the charts.

haha! I wonder if it's because I bought 3 more copies last week. hehe, I like to think I've helped her

181? That's not good! :eek:

Does it say how many albums sold constitute a spot at 181, and how many #180 sold?

I'm just wondering if the mass purchase of 200+ copies yesterday at the Amoeba Records signing will be enough to help keep her on the charts.

Great. I think this is Stevie's first album of the Soundscan era that has actually risen since its debut week. All the others started strong, then had an inexorable decline.

It's better than not being on the chart at all, which is what was happening before. :shrug:

That's true! ;)

It is a good thing!:blob2:

Considering that it was off the charts completely for 2 weeks, this is not only good that it's re-entered, it's fantastic.

It's in the vacinity of 2,500 to 3,000.

Like for instance Rumours was back on the billboard 200 last week at # 162 and they sold 3,287

The tour will boost the sales - I've always wondered how/when/if CDs sold at the venues get tracked and reported to Billboard and Soundscan and whatever?

Any info yet on how For What It's Worth is doing.?If it can get on the AC charts that would help too.

I wonder what the grand total sales of the album are now? Last I heard a while ago we were looking at around 120,000?

She's just over 135k. And she sold a little over 3100 this week, up from 1900 the week before.

The more she stays out in the public eye with these media appearances and interviews, the more albums she's going to sell. Out of sight, out of mind. Her tour starting soon will help.

Also, you can "self" report sales of albums at shows to SoundScan. I say self, but it will be the Tour Merch Manager either reporting it directly to SoundScan or giving the numbers to Warner to report.

I just really really hope she and her management realize this! It seems like a no-brainer, but considering some of the missteps of the past... :distress:

It's also the only way we're going to get some west coast shows this year! :nod:

That is a respectable sales figure in this day and age.
