just too funny

ok, so...this from the wire.... In an unusual development on the pop album charts, veteran rock band the Eagles were awarded the No. 1 spot on Tuesday after a last-minute rule change relegated Britney Spears to second place.

The Eagles' first studio release in 28 years, "Long Road Out of Eden," sold about 711,000 copies last week, according to preliminary data released by tracking firm Nielsen SoundScan. Spears sold a modest 290,000 copies of her album, "Blackout."

seems the eagles album is available only at walmart, which does not usually release sales figures to nielsen.....but this issue is a digression from my point...that an aging rock band has outsold the pop queen......just too funny......
