I wonder how many tickets have been sold to the Stockholm show...Hopefully there'll at least be some old Oasis fans who'll go and see him. He must fill up Anexet? NIN played to a half-full Hovet in 2007. Were not many people up in the bleachers. You could feel second hand embarrassment for Reznor and the band.

I dont think Why Me Why Not charted in US. Very bad. On the release date it did well on iTunes (can't remember exact # but somewhere above 40). But here's the thing - you don't have to chart high in the US to have a stable career. You can tour repeatedly, sell out venues and never so much as make a blip on the charts - this is especially true of older or established artists. You tour, you sell merch... the charts are dominated by largely younger artists who may or may not have long careers. It's better to have the fan base that supports you through the years. Many a sold out tour hasn't seen a charting album for years or decades.

Why does everbody worry if the album is 55 or 175 in sweden or Guatemala. Do you like the album? Have you bought it? If yes then it Will be alright . As Long as he’s nr 1 or even top 10 in the uk the show Will go on.

The tickets have been on sale since like... 2015... or it feels like that was when I bought the tickets. Haha. Shouldn't it already be sold out? Was sure they were gonna upgrade to a bigger place. But hasn't happend it seems. Maybe with a new push for the show later on.

I dont think Why Me Why Not charted in US. Very bad. Only a handful of stores are carrying the CD, Amazon is selling CDR on demand copies and he's done ZERO promo here except for 3-4 print interviews.
It was to be expected.

Liam is not Def Leppard though. It's not just Def Leppard. Try Neil Finn - never charts, tours regularly. Personally I want to go to shows in 1000-2000 capacity venues.

If Noel's next album gets to number one, I'll be amazed. That's what I call as an achievement.

Didn't chart in Denmark (in the top 40), but charted at number 3 on the vinyl list. One Of Us been on the top 20 Airplay list for three weeks and is currently number 19, which I would say is a great achievement.

It's impossible that Liam has been out of the Top 200 in the United States.

How is the Oasis/Gallagher (not Rory) fanbase in the US? Bigger then in Europe? I wonder Liam will sell out the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam in february.

I was wondering the same, I checked the available tickets and only the outer rings are still available. I don't think it will sell out but I think he's selling pretty well.

Despite only every 4th stream counting (it's 4 isn't it?) surely that's by far the most popular method of consuming music? Looks like two weeks at no 1 😎 I think the MTV concert has given him a well deserved boost. In the UK I think it is 100 paid streams = 1 album sale, 600 free streams = 1 album sale. He’s doing really well to be beating a younger artist like Lewis on streaming. X
