No, They're number 2, possibly due to lack of physical sales.
Lack of cd's on the shelf.

I went into HMV and Golden Discs in Cork yesterday looking for it they hadnt got it but plenty about 500 of Matt Cardle's CD :rolleyes: Is anywhere in Cork or County selling the CD?

I never made it as far as the shop to buy it, drove past couldn't find any parking spaces, head wrecked went home without any Christmas presents for anyone.

Thank Christ for that, was really worried that we would be able to just enjoy a joke without hounding them for irrelevant information.

Not them by the way, decoys.

I feel sorry for them the way the youtube video was the main source for most people (the 4 million+) and they don't see a cent of revenue from it!

zuroph · 30-12-2010 7:20pm

yip, same. I only realised how much can be made from the views yesterday, when a vid of mine picked up a few views from another source, my adsense account shot up.

It's still good promotion that money can't buy and it's sending people towards their own channel that they are featuring ads on.

You do realise they've been around for a few years before the recent explosion, and doing pretty well for themselves as it was?

I can't think of a gig that could not be improved by having " Double dropping yokes with Eammon DeVelera as an opener"....what a tune!

Jedward and the FF party have proved you don't need to be intelligent and possess talent to make money,just neck.The Rubberbandits are clever and entertaining and fair play to them.They've got the balls to take risks and satirise.Can only get better

Big fan of the Rubberbandits until I watched this;

Went to see them in The Wright Venue on Friday night and they were fantastic. The lyrics are extremely clever and the two lads are hilarious. Bout time Ireland had something interesting music wise as opposed to the feckin Script and Snow Patrol.

I'm doubting that they had too much control over that one, just judging by the fact that talentless, smug twit Dermot Whelan is the main character.
