So, maybe he can share how many units were sold if he surfs by here.<BR/><BR/>I doubt it is very many since I never got the impression that Exile on Main Street sells a lot of CDs. Barre's downtown is trying to become more vibrant but, right now, it has less foot traffic than it's twin city, Montpelier.<BR/><BR/>Montpelier tends to be more white collar with the state government in town while Barre tends to be more blue collar with the granite quarries. So, that explains a lot of the differences between lists. <BR/><BR/>Burlington's Pure Pop caters a lot to the 10,000 UVM students in town.Flatlanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17069299445469035037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14112087.post-1132258967135133312005-11-17T15:22:00.000-05:002005-11-17T15:22:00.000-05:00Maybe some local music teacher came in and bought ...Maybe some local music teacher came in and bought 20 copies of that L.A.

That's hard to believe - not that there are more popular albums, but that Barre is soooo far out of the mainstream.jdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05330984017813285467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14112087.post-1132255617199326402005-11-17T14:26:00.000-05:002005-11-17T14:26:00.000-05:00Good point.

I was going to comment on that but then I learned that its actually a new album from them and not a greatest hits, re-issue or early album from them. So, since I had no idea what the deal was with them or their new album, I thought I'd steer clear of possibly showing my ignorance of the Sunset Strip's metal scene.<BR/><BR/>But the fact that their CD is ranked 15,000 on Amazon but #1 in Barre does say a good deal about Barre.Flatlanderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17069299445469035037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14112087.post-1132254852251368292005-11-17T14:14:00.000-05:002005-11-17T14:14:00.000-05:00I think the La Guns album sitting atop the list sa...I think the La Guns album sitting atop the list says more about Barre then the absence of Trey's disc. <BR/><BR/>It's sad that I wouldn't consider purchasing a single disc at my local shop.jdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05330984017813285467noreply@blogger.com
