Haha, this is actually becoming highly amusing now.

it's like they keep waiting for the u.s. to care about the album before they put it out... what they don't realize is that it's never going to happen, at least initially.

throwing copper was a tremendous success in the u.s., but it didn't really take off until after it was out for 11 or 12 months. waiting for a big first week response is going to get sony nowhere.

unfortunately, there aren't any songs on this latest offering that match what it means to be a 'hit' here in the states. and even if they did have songs like that, the only real way to get milage out of the album is to put the fricking thing out, tour ambitiously, and let word of mouth handle the rest.

We are not decision makers in music industry for good reason. The industry has changed. The music listening demographic has evolved (or lack of). 99% of us already have the leak so just listen to it and be happy. If in the end they believe this will help Live make them more money then so be it.
