April 1, 201114 yr She did alot of promo for it then :o Or is that not alot for her? I don't really know :lol:
April 17, 201114 yr Author Does anyone think this would be a great format for a new album chart thread including the UK promotion bits?. Personally, just posting a chart run seems kinda dull. Any views?. I have all runs ready & updated to post just I wonder if I should include the UK promotion Madonna physically did for the albums.
April 18, 201114 yr I think it's a great idea, it's really interesting to be able to read through all that stuff and it'll be even more interesting for the older albums (if you've got promo information for them).
