ValR Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Elaine - Amazon will send the other items now and then send Gareth's CD when it's released. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khelda Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 I did have a look and he was in music 22k or there abouts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternal Posted February 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Thanks. Think it was more too at times. He is rising again now so let's hope 124 wasn't his lowest. He needs to be in the Top 100 at least. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eternal Posted February 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 Just wondered if anyone had seen this advertised/promoted on other websites they belong to as the rating is going in the wrong direction at the moment? Let's hope there is some TV advertising planned. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khelda Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 It wont be eligible for the charts with that price, maybe that is what they want? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternal Posted February 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 It wont be eligible for the charts with that price, maybe that is what they want? You are right Khelda but why would they do this? It seems mad to release an album with three new tracks that no one is going to hear. This is the ruling on eliigibility for the charts: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UK_Albums_Chart 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NicolaJayne Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 I find it very strange that they have reduced the album before it's release date. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 What does this mean for us then, who have purchased the album at the original price? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khelda Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 I think they will only charge us the price it is, if its Amazon they dont actually take the money until they send. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternal Posted February 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 I wonder if Gareth's manager is aware of the reduced price and the non-eligibility to the charts at this price? I saw her tweeting yesterday advertising it so why would she do this if it won't chart? Perhaps someone who is in touch with her could verify as with all she has going on at the moment, she may not be aware. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ValR Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Maybe they aren't bothered about the charts Chris - no idea how it works these days with iTunes etc. There was an interesting article in the Sunday Times last week, mainly about how well behaved the artists are at The Brits now compared with in the past - here's part of the article 'Why? simply because nobody believes they can afford to take risks anymore. The money from the British music industry has long drained away - and with it the bullish bravado and invincibility that used to make nights like the Brits memorable. On the morning of the Brits, midweek album sales revealed that the biggest selling album had barely scraped 6.000 sales. Ten years ago it would have been at least 10 times as many. Combined with the decreased sales is the lack of opportunity for musicians to perform on television. Since the demise of Top of the Pops, the Brit awards is no longer just another industry knees up, but an annual lifeline for artists trying to connect with a wider audience.' When you think of how many millions of records Gareth sold and the number of shows available for him to promote when he started off, he probably knows that there is no money to be made from them now, but he just wants his fans to have the CD. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We hope you enjoy them! Gareth HQ x That's brilliant. Will be so good to see them. Valr that's so interesting. I missed that in the Sunday Times. Love articles like this that give us an insight into the music industry. I still can't understand why no artist would want an album to chart and to appeal to a wider audience. There is a lot of effort (and I would think, expense)gone into the videos etc so surely some of that needs to be recouped. Like you say perhaps it is just for the fans which is a nice gesture. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Has this album been advertised anywhere other than social networks and on this site? I haven't seen it anywhere else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
