So after my paddy about the avatar :roll: my question I asked earlier was: does it mean AROBTTH has now gone platinum? I think over 300,000 means that? :? I'm sure it will sell millions eventually but it's not bad after 2 weeks is it guys? Yay for our lovely boys :lol: :lol:

I think the first week sales in the US were around 140,000. I'm not sure about this past week, though I'm always checking out billboard.com, so figures should be in soon. :)

i didn't meet jane from off the board - i go to school with her. and i've been in her class for the past 9 years! i have no proper friends that i've met off the mb either. :(
Ohhhhhhhhhh okay then. Fair enough. :D I haven't even met Ian yet and he's one of my best mates! Interesting...like, there were some people on the official CP MB talking about they all met up at the Berkeley show, which is the one I went to, but I didn't meet up with anyone!! :T
