When you have someone else telling you how you think or feel about something you know this person is a genuine asshole.

Please provide a link for this story. Sounds like your rock and roll fantasy.


It was on Live's FB page, in the comment section. Ask TurningStones.....I'm sure he remembers.

ask me if I remember what? I only remember some posts indicating there was some discussion between the parties over the past few years. This obviously was dealing with whatever the parties working relationship was.

I think the local PA video with pat and chad t cleared that up for everyone. Also the off the record this from their website with Pat's quip. Interesting, funny and probably introspective. I see that you are an irritant. The other poster asked you to provide a link for your statement.... yet you chose to thumb your nose and start nonsense.

It was a comment by Chad Gracey on Live's FB. Anyone can feel free and ask Gracey himself.

How many units has "The Turn" sold to date? I searched and can't find any numbers on the net.

It won't matter what version of Live puts out music, they are not going to move albums or singles. More music is listed to than ever but music sales are at all time lows. The current No. 1 song has sold only 94,000 times, a low for the past decade.

Sales are dead - The industry has changed. Streaming is the new medium and bands rely on touring to make money.

Here is a recent article. If sales is your benchmark (Nick) you would be disappointed.Live will never approach TC numbers again. Heck, SFBM sales are probably out of reach today. Even the top bands can't match sales that used to be common.

Just wanted to know, i never thought about all the outlets we have now to buy albums/songs and it's probably hard to tell how many sold.

But Live can chart higher with less sales. The fact the Turn charted in the mid-100's was not good. I would like to see Live's new album in the top 25 or 50 on Billboard.

Have they really not figured out a way to include online sales in the album's sale figures yet? I would have assumed this had been accounted for already.

Album sales mean absolutely nothing. For $10 a month (e.g., Spotify Premium, Apple Music, Google Play) you literally have access to almost every piece of music officially released in the last century whenever, wherever you want without commercial interruption.

Bands are barely paid in royalties. They are paid in exposure. It's up to them to utilize that exposure and tour.
