Almost a year after the release of The Delivery Man, EC has stopped touring this record (except for some dates in october).
Does anyone know how many albums could have been sold up till now? Does ayone have access to the SoundScan sales figures? And would the sales through the internet (iTunes) be substantial or neglectable?
(My guess is that it sold better than North (84.000 copies sold in the USA) and worse than When I Was Cruel (192.000 copies sold in the USA)).

Interesting question, I'd love to know the answer. Do you think that EC made a lot of money with North's sales?? 84 000 isnt a lot in todays standards, I mean how much money acutally ends u in HIS pockets and is that enough for a rock star's monthly bills?
Preacher was a talkin' there's a sermon he gave,
He said every man's conscience is vile and depraved,
You cannot depend on it to be your guide
When it's you who must keep it satisfied

I'm sick and tired of all of this talk about total album sales and really couldn't give a flying f*vk if EC manages to make enough to pay his bills.

It's not an unreasonable question; there's a natural curiosity about how EC's music is selling today, considering his past performance. TDM was marketed as a "mainstream" rock record (as was WIWC), so it's not assigning any value judgements to merely wonder how it charted & sold...I'd like to know too.BlueChair wrote:I agree though. Who cares about how many records Elvis sells. I'm sure he lives more comfortably than most of us on this forum.
