Combined worldwide UYI album sales stand at over 40 million....
aledgedly....anyway i have no idea on world wide sales of no more tears but i'll look
#11982 Re: Guns N' Roses » Eddie Trunk on Chinese Democracy » 982 weeks ago
Guns N' Roses weren't Slash to everyone outside these boards.
...And for the final time, I don't think it's gonna go multi-diamond, I just think that it's more than capable of selling a few million albums, instead of 10,000 what you guys seem to think...
Anyway we'll see whens it's released, if it ever is.
haha i said around 500,000 (In 6 months) not 10,000 
i just think it'll be comparable to Ozzy is all....

Neemo wrote:there ya go a preview of CD sales if its released this year
Sorry Neemo, but most rock fans couldn't care less about the Ozzy solo career..
whatever you say...
And again "Down To Earth".... There wasn't a 10 year wait before "Black Rain".
your right i'm sorry it was only 6 years
#11990 Re: Guns N' Roses » Eddie Trunk on Chinese Democracy » 982 weeks ago
It was like 500,000. And Axl Rose isn't Ozzy.
Ozzy can barely string together a sentence. Axl on the other hand is putting on one hell of a show for a 45-year old. This is coming from a longtime Ozzy/Sabbath fan too.
GNR's reception after the album release isn't decided yet, but it seems like you've already made your judgment. Bummer.
oh Axl is better than ozzy huh? well ozzy is outselling Axl in many areas and ozzy is still selling out concerts everywhere..i dunno just my opinion is all, if you hope for the moon dont be upset when all you get is a night light 
i'm just trying to guestimate based on a similar artist is all 
trying to find some reality
