Foreign Fans, A.K.A - Not From North America Options

[Hoodstock]

Here in North America I am conscious of Live's standing and popularity as a band in our social culture.

I am wondering how Live is viewed on other continents, especially Europe, Australia, and Africa. It seems to me that they are publically much more popular overseas than they are at home. I am wondering if anyone from these areas can comment on the popularity of the band?

Live always sell out their concerts quick here in Norway, on the SFTBM tour they had to put up a x-concert. The club takes about 1200-1300.
I just know about 2-3 other people that listen to Live. The only reason my friends have heard about them is because I like them.
Their cd's always enter the charts, they stay for some weeks and then disaper.I think I saw a tv comercial for SFTBM twice (before the album was out) and hear Mystery once on the Radio. V is the only Live cd to have top the chart.
Awake did great here.
5-6 months after it went out of the list after just one week, they ran tv comercials fot it on a smaler tv station, it got back to the chart and sold about 70-80 000, thats a lot in Norway.
But they didn't start playing the songs on the radio.

Here's a link that shows how many weeks they have been on the charts, it dosen't show how many copy's they have sold.
Uke = weeks
