ROCK STAR SUPERNOVA First-Week Sales Revealed

[Fingers]

I love Gilby, really liked his solo albums, but to be honest, not a lot of casual fans know who he is by name-not that it had anything to do woth the poor sales-but I'm not sure hardcore GNR, Metallica, and Motley fans would like this album anyway-especially Metallica fans-they must be ripping Jason a new one about the whole Supewrnova thing-is anyone a member at a Metallica fourm? What's the reaction for Jason like?

What the chick from Texas didn?t win~!@#$%^&*? No wonder I quit watching. Lame and predictable...Hope the whole country burns out on this shit soon.

I checked billboard magazine and I think it fell off the top 200 chart-sad

Oh my God-that is terrible-I would be curious to know what INXS first week sales are -Tommy Lee's last solo album opened better than this-they had all the pub in the world with a prime time show

I might be wrong on this, but I rememer that the INXS album w/ JD Fortune was the bands first top 20 album in over a decade.   It wasn't top ten, but it did really well (I think), at least when compared to RSN.

The songs suck plain and simple.? Lukas was not the right choice.

I think Lukas *was* the right choice for the band, but overall, they're just a bad band.  And you're right...the songs do suck.  Really basic bar-band blues chords, simple progressions, lame lyrics.  I was hoping Ryan Star would win simply because of the intensity he brought to the table, but it wouldn't have fit with those awful songs.  Lukas was their best choice for the type of band they were trying to be...kind of like watching a train wreck, unfortunately.

ROCK STAR SUPERNOVA Frontman Accepts Gold Record For Canadian Sales; Video Available - Jan. 8, 2007

ROCK STAR SUPERNOVA frontman Lukas Rossi was videotaped accepting a gold record plaque at the SonyBMG Canada offices for Canadian sales in excess of 50,000 copies of the band's self-titled debut album. Watch the footage at this location.

"Rock Star Supernova" has sold less than 40,000 copies in the United States since its November 21, 2006 release, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The band ? whose lineup features Rossi alongside M?TLEY CR?E drummer Tommy Lee, guitarist Gilby Clarke (ex-GUNS N' ROSES) and bassist Johnny Colt (BLACK CROWES, TRAIN) ? will kick off a North American tour on January 16, with THE PANIC CHANNEL as support. The band lost ex-METALLICA bassist Jason Newsted after an accident that resulted in a torn anterior labrum in his left shoulder and a rotator cuff and bicep tear in the right. Newsted suffered the injuries while trying to catch a 90-pound bass head that had fallen from atop his amp. The combination of surgery and a lengthy rehab assignment could leave him sidelined for up to nine months.
