Here's hoping that Chartbuster is doing everything legal.
I'm really surprised at some of these songs I know that
Cowboy Casanova by Carrie Underwood was only released in Sept.
and the album won't be out til Nov 3rd.

Way to go Chartbuster keep up the great work.

Your lists are always appreciated and interesting but unfortunately we aren't in the type of venue that jumps on new things. I try to buy a few new things here and there but usually I'm the only one who does them. But I do like that you share your info with us when you get it.

I will get them because they are sent to me automatically each month (subscription). Like Diafel said they probably won't even really be sung until maybe 6 months to a year down the road (IF at all), but at least it gives something new in the book each month until I get the actual requested songs from the customers compiled & purchased - which I usually get every 3 months or so. Getting to be about that time again too! Although this new release has a few more 'rock' songs ie Pearl Jam, Nickelback, Shinedown, Three Days Grace - which all are hot bands sung so we'll see what happens with these.
As far as giving customers a heads up, I always send out an email, Facebook, MySpace when I recieve the listing. Even telling them some of these songs aren't even on the radio YET but on the new cd's so be the first to learn the newest hits today - still doesn't get them, they want what they want & new stuff typically isn't it.

If They want what they want so bad tell them to go out and buy it then they can have it and bring it in..sheessshhh..

Nope, that's part of MY job/expense as a good host to provide what the customer (who supports the show) WANTS to sing. But I do have many people who do bring in thier own discs with what they want. Sometimes if they are discs of interest & others show interest I will try to pick that disc up as well.

Funny that YOU would suggest that someone buy what they want to bring it in with the problem you have with it at your own shows.

i wasnt talking about my show..you right I dont allow singers to bring their own disc its listed in the rules in the front of the book

Just wondering why there is such a delay with Chartbuster releasing the November discs??? The October discs came out in September but the November discs aren't scheduled to be released until LATE November. That's almost two months between releases. What's goin' on?

Thanks Lonnie. It seems that if they lag behind Pop Hits Monthly by that much time, they will lose out on sales from people who order songs as soon as they are available.
