I know that DFBB was not very successful, but what were some other low sellers and big sellers among DA albums? Anyone know any numbers?

I would like to know that too. I would also like to know how many copies MBD has sold. Not that that is a true gauge of success, but I would like to see the band continue on for at least another 20 years or so...

In the liner notes of SoTH DA noted it was the 20th anniversary (1995), and says something to the effect of "...Lord willing we'll do another 20..."
I have no doubt that Lord willing Terry, Tim, Greg and Ed can go strong until at least 2015.
Looking forward to untitled new recording #14, whenever it happens...

What does such a fine album have to do with a sour cream rip off?

DFBB is one of the best albums ever made! Just too bad there are so few people who will ever appreciate it! Don't you just wish you could get people to listen to these guys? Most of the people I have tried to convert to DA won't even give them a chance. They're like "Who? Never heard of 'em" , and they don't even listen to them! Oh, well, that's our lot in life!
