I've often wondered how much a "best seller" Not Lame CD sold. I'm assuming here that The Shazam's TOMORROW THE WORLD is most likely the top seller in Bruce's canon, and read in that article a few months ago that he poured $25,000 in to it (if I remember correctly). I'm hoping that it's one of those 5,000 that sold over 1,000 (strangely enough, mine has a 2003 copyright date, even though I'm sure I got it in 2002). Bruce, if you don't mind, can you divulge how many have been moved (or how many you expect to)?

np: Wanderlust - S/T (my favorite NL release)
