Def Leppard just issued their entire catalog on streaming and download services and have been promoting it hard via their socials and they even have a great little website which unlocks more exclusive videos etc, the more that people stream. Now that's how you market something in 2018!

It would also help sales if they gave a shit about anywhere outside of the US, but ho hum...

Bragging about the album going back to number 1 and yet it also shows the album has only been in the charts for 8 weeks!

Woooooooooooooof. I mean the only reason it was there was from the ticket sales obviously but they had to have expected a GIANT drop. It's not like they promoted the two new songs or anything.

Holy cow Rosa why don't you understand NONE OF US WANT THIS. We don't want the band to fail. We're not happy about this. Why do you act like any bit of negative feedback means we hate the band?

[*]Well, they way you kept debating on the reasons why the album went no.1 again, yes it was the help of the the ticket sales, but there was no positive word that the album went no.1, No one hear said, "great" or "awesome", or even a congratulations, only a how, why, and when will it drop off from no.1. That to me says not so much you want the band to fail, but it says that you lost faith in the band, and lost trust. You don't trust or believe the band can make good music again, so you question the authenticity of THINFS going one again, you questioned it. Ok, maybe I went a little off the rails here when I responded, but its just fustrated reading the negativity that it almost feels that some here want the band to fail, Just read the posts, I think you might feel the same.[/LIST]

No one wants them to fail but as a fan of over 30 years in my opinion they’ll never make a very good, never mind “great” album again.
The return to number 1 was a sham. No one bought tickets to get an album. why pay $100+ when you could go down shop and buy CD for a few dollars? How many people already owned the album so they now have a few copies laying around.

Obvious troll is obvious.

Saw this coming. This is one of the reason the whole ticket thing was a bad idea. First it generated negative press in the style of "Bon Jovi back at number one but onky becasue of ticket bundles" which just made them seem deserate for sales. Now "Bon Jovi take record chart plung". Well done to the BJ PR team....
