Alter Bridge beats Scott Stapp in first week sales

[HuMaN~ClAy]

"It's been a rough few days for the 32-year-old singer. His debut solo album, The Great Divide, barely dented the charts this week, opening at 19 with 94,000 in sales. (By comparison, Creed's final studio album, Weathered, sold 887,000 copies in its first week in 2001; and his former band mate's offshoot, Alter Bridge, sold 95,000 first-week copies last year of their debut, One Day Remains.)"

that was taken from Yahoo News in an article about the bar fight with 311... here's a link to the article; http://news.yahoo.com/s/eo/20051202/en_music_eo/17881

this was a huge surprise to me... although they are very close and the numbers are definitely not exact... we all know how sketchy album sales numbers are. but ah, i expected Scott Stapp to be well up there considering how easy it was to get your hands on it in the first week with all the pre order options.

Wow! That's a suprise for me too! Damn!

I think it's pretty fair, One Day Remains is WAY better than The Great Divide
