So let me get this straight. Nick posts some figures. Measurable ones at that. So that all of a sudden means that he's trying to imply that charts measure success, and that reviews dont mean squat. Maybe some people out there like to know how the music they enjoy is doing on the charts.

Do you care how other people review the music that you like? Reviews are opinions. Chart numbers are at least measurable.

You Ed haters should really just let it go.

I don't want any part in this argument, but Nick bases nearly all of his thoughts on sales numbers. That has been thoroughly documented in many places.

Actually, what's been documented is a number of The Gracious Few's blind followers speculating (its what they seem to do best) about what goes on in Nick's mind.

I've read plenty of it, and it's getting quite tiresome.

#28 is a real fucking zero in my book........perhaps I'll notice if he's #1 on something and I'll give a compliment.

Actually, this trend goes back to long before the band broke up. Nice try though.

I am not saying that it is wrong, by the way, I'm just saying that is how Nick often looks at things in music. I don't think he would disagree.

Ed, I couldn't care less about TGF. We are talking about Ed here. He isn't good anymore.

I dont think there is a person who has ever followed Ed or Live that would have expected this to ever be at #1.

Like them (Chad, Chad, Pat & Ed) as much as I do, they are 4 'has-been' musicians. Good for all of them for findng a way to keep gong after all these years. We're way too far removed from the mid 90's, i.e. the last time Live was really relevant.

Who really cares? They are doing what they love, and we get to enjoy it. Win-win.
