Fall Out Boy tops the chart this week debuting with 150K in sales. That is in the same range as their last album released almost 5 years ago during the Christmas rush. Not bad. Although I still think it was a little surreal for them to show up in the Idol audience to nod at Ryan last week.
Olly Murs from UK XF (and singer on DWTS last night) will debut in the top 20. Kelly, Carrie and Phil are all in the top 50. Hopefully we will not have to wait too long for the numbers this week.
This is the weekly sales thread. Please post numbers as you find them. Thanks!
