and you never heard Paulo Gonzo,I bet... blessed,my child.

seriously,it came as quite a big surprise TOOL's #06 spot in Portugal...there's still hope for this country after all!

oh,and Pearl Jam at #1 was to be expected,I guess....will buy the record as soon as I'm able to listen to anything else besides 10,000 Days.

#2 in finland after RHCP

#1 in AUSTRIA, lol. Never expected that. Pearl Jam in second and then all the commercial shit.

yeah, quite nice.... i hope everyone will get the meanings of the songs.

Yeah it is quite nice, Lateralus debuted at #16 so theres progress. And RHCP album is a double, so I'd say Tool is the moral winner here...

sweet...
now how can we find international sales
because i am way more interested in the larger picture...anyone know about total canadian, european, down under sales? can someone tabulate its entire sellage :)

if not that is cool but i know that it should be around 800,000 or something like that

so it is doing well in a lot of countries will be surprised to hear the total number when we all add this up
yay for the boys

Yay Danny Can buy a Michigan State Basketball Jersey, He allready has a Pistons Jersey. lol.

He is a Kansas Jayhawk fan though.

TOOL IS #1 IN CANADA.

ALBUM GOES GOLD IN FIRST WEEK!

.....

Good stuff! and congrats to PJ to for a good opening week, as the album really is better than anything I've heard from them in a while.

The odd thing is the near perfect 1:10 ration of Canadian vs. US album sales. Usually it isnt that even (or population is about 1/10 of the US, so we base it on that) but it looks like Tool's fanbase in Canada is on par with our American neigbours (by scale).

here's the story from canoe.ca

Tool, Pearl Jam battle for No. 1

By JOHN WILLIAMS
Senior Editor, JAM! Showbiz

It's Tool time on the Canadian album charts this week.
The long-awaited release from experimental hard rockers Tool threw a wrench into Pearl Jam's bid for the top spot on the Canadian album charts.

Tool's "10,000 Days," the band's fourth studio album, checked in at No. 1 this week with hefty sales of 56,000, according to data compiled by Nielsen SoundScan.

The album figures make "10,000 Days" the top debut of '06.

It also marks their second straight No. 1 album here -- their last disc, "Lateralus," hit the top of the heap back in May of 2001, selling just under 51,000 copies.

Tool also grabbed the No. 1 spot south of the border, selling a whopping 564,000 copies of "10,000 Days" in the U.S, according to Billboard.com.

Back in Canada, Pearl Jam's new self-titled effort, which many critics are calling their best album in years, came in at No. 2 with healthy sales of 37,000. It matches their best ever SoundScan debut. Their last studio effort, 2002's "Riot Act," came in at No. 4 with 20,000 copies sold.

So in Canada, 10k days is the top debut of '06... Is it the top here in the US as well?

where is the super rock festival

Lisbon. Tool is headlining on the 26th of May.

Seems to be right on top in many (or most?) European charts at least...

Just saw on MTV, 10,000 Days sold well over 560,000 in the first week, putting them in the top spot in the US. Or at least I'm pretty sure that's what they said, I'm a bit distracted by Oblivion.

thank you kindly :)

all i found so far...no #'s though i am sure most of this information is old

I'll try to find some of the ? for you.

Sweaden = Not in Top 20 and it only shows the Top 20
Denmark = Not in Top 40 and it only shows the Top 40

France = #7 http://www.ifop.com/europe/sondages/topalb/alb0618.stm

ah...i dont know if the album has been released
because for instance
germany it is going to be HUGE over there but nada

yeah im sure that is the case. release dates are different everywhere.

Anyway between USA/Canada/Austraila, 10,000 Days has sold over 670,000 Copies.


USA = 563,532
Canada = 56,000
Austraila = 70,000

10, 000 days reached number 1 on Official Retail Sales Chart in Poland.

It is also number 1 in Empik music chain store in Poland.

Very glad to hear that news, especially that it came as a surprise to me.

do you know the numbers?

not yet. I'll try to find out though I would not expect big numbers.

Albums do not sell in big numbers in Poland in general. For example only 25 000 copies of Lateralus was sold in Poland.

But maybe this tme things will be better.

oh nice i was just looking for sales #'s over there and found nothing..sweet :)

tool will probably just barely be in the top 10 next week, now that all the hardcore fans have bought it.

Tool has large amount of fans here in Poland, that's for sure. Everytime (i've witnessed this twice) new album is released, at the premiere day, polish tool fans are literally crowding in (poor) music stores. It some kind of psychodelic experience :)

This polish guy is my favourite polish dude.

sweet

Just wanted to comment on your location, I think most americans know where london is considering we GOT ON A BOAT AND GOT THE FUCK AWAY FROM THAT HELL-HOLE 400 YEARS AGO.

Oh, and this thread has made me realize, Poland rocks.

Cheers from USA to Polish Tool fans...

Are tickets to Katowice sold out yet?

God bless Lech Walesa.

que?

Great Polish union organizer from the 70's and 80's.

i think it will retain better than previous albums

#2 or #3.

I think they will do 170,000 copies next week. Nick Lachey 150,000 copies estimated will be at #3. So Tool will be #2.

ew. wow those top 3 are shizzy

Tool unlocks Euro chart No. 1

Tool's ''10,000 Days'' (Volcano/Zomba) repeats its achievement on The Billboard 200 by debuting on the Europe-wide chart at No. 1, followed by Pearl Jam's eponymous J set at No. 2 and Bruce Springsteen's ''We Shall Overcome - The Seeger Sessions'' (Columbia), which falls from 1 to 3.

The Tool album opens at No. 1 in Holland, Austria and Norway, No. 2 in Germany, Finland and Denmark, No. 3 in Switzerland, No. 4 in Italy and the United Kingdom (with sales of 29,000 units) and No. 6 in Portugal. ''10,000 Days'' climbs from 2 to 1 in the Belgian region of Flanders. Pearl Jam, meanwhile, is new at No. 1 in Italy and Portugal, No. 2 in Germany, Switzerland and Holland, No. 3 in Austria, No. 4 in Norway and Ireland, No. 5 in the United Kingdom (selling 26,000 units), and climbs from 8 to 2 in Flanders.

Finnish Net-Anttila (the online service of the probably largest Finnish department store-chain) has a "temporarily out of stock" mark on 10,000 Days on their site. It had climbed to 4th most sold CD before that. Guess some one wasn't prepared for this... :)

And an other department-store didn't even have it the day it was released, when i went there to purchase the new PJ album.

Great "scouting" as always in the case of the department store music sections... :)
