    #1  in album sales (chart)… #29 on the billboard 200 

    never understand how they determine chart position as your either #1 or #29 depending on what criteria you use

    So I assume you would rather be 1 on album sales? 
    The 200 is the chart everyone pays attention to though.  I would think there is more money on album sales vs the streaming equivalent payouts

    One would hope.   Given other commitments of various band members, I've wondering how easy it will be for them to tour again.   Hopefully it wasn't a one off.

    Everyone in the earthlings should wear a silver suit. And they should add this very-much-not-from-earth dude to the pack:

    Yeah I hope they have time to do this again together.

    Boston (or, better still, New Hampshire) would be nice, as well.
