Chart Show 5-5

Finally, while all the big name bands bounce up and down the chart, after
4 weeks at # 2 Foster The People make it to the top! It's Adele's Birthday,
(22 I presume?) but she didn't make it back to #1, to celebrate. 
Giving tickets away helped Cake to their highest position yet so they and
Fleet Foxes are poised and Rural and Dessa are inducted this week to The
Chart Hall of Fame.
 
Some big names make their debut mid-table so it looks like a big fight for
#1 next week OR will Foster hold on, now they're there? But then TVOTR &
Radiohead have under-performed and this week we lost, surprisingly, The
Kills, Bright Eyes and The Strokes. So anything can happen, it's up to you!

If Fleet Foxes are singing the "Homelessness Blues" I think we can find them a home here in Minneapolis!
