I would imagine they would tally all sales together given that it is still the same album.Just different extras with each. Thats my thinking anyway.

Speaking of Billboard, I read they are closing down their Nashville offices according to All About Country's site headlines. It has me wondering if that will put an end to their charting the Country sales. Dee

I noted that Billboard now lists both the Deluxe Version and the Standard version for Randy's dfiscography as being released for july 15. How will two versions of this now play out in his sales record? I mean if each only sells 500,000 but both together total a million so in reality Around the Bend sells a milion, is this not going to be charted as such in the final tally? . In other words, if together they go gold or platinum but singly do not, how with the records perceive the sales?

I just happened to get thinking about this the other day with all these various options being offered and was just wondering.

That new Warner Bros site isn't well organized. I don't like it at all. I'll buy the new recordings in the store instead. This site is well organized and I haven't had any problem with the merchandise I've purchased.

I wish there was a way to comment on each individual photo because there are many that I love and would like to comment on. I do want to say that I love the baby picture. Randy's fans really are getting younger. Isn't it wonderful that he appeals to all age groups!

Yes, The Deluxe Edition "Around The Bend" package including the DVD will be in stores everywhere July 15th, along with the standard 11 track album.

Will you be able to purchase the Deluxe DVD package at a retailers of is this only availble through the internet? RT Forever!!!

Thanks Randy's team for the response to my inquiries. Much appreciated.
I am wondering if the song "One In A Row" is the same song that Buddy Jewell had on his debut album. Or if it is an entirely different song, only with the same title such as "Four Walls" had been. I'm sure it will be a good song . Randy wouldn't record it if it wasn't! :) Dee

The 2 Bonus Tracks will only be available when you order the pre-order for Around The Bend on iTunes from July 1st to the 14th. iTunes are offering these specially as a part of their exclusive Randy Travis "Around The Bend" iTunes promotion.

We haven't been sent any information yet about tour dates, movies, or the DVD you mention. We'll see what we can find out and keep everyone posted!

Are these included on the deluxe addition only through the itune's order?Or will they also be included on the CD/DVD deluxe purchase?

Also, just want to say I was delighted to read that Randy will be appearing on some popular TV shows to perform his single and to promote his album.

I noticed on his tour page while checking out the shows he will be appearing on, that he has nothing scheduled for the month of Nov. Is there a specific reason he has not scheduled anything for that month?

I know he mentioned in one of his GAC appearances that he has several movie scripts that he has been offered parts in, and said that he will probably do them. at some point. Depending on his and their time frames and his schedule, due to promoting his new album.

Last question. Is there any chance we will ever get the Christmas In The Peco's DVD that was suppose to come out a few seasons ago? Many of his long time fans were really looking forward to seeing that live concert , and having it in our Randy collections. Any light you can shed on these questions would be greatly appreciated.

As I mentioned earlier you guys/gals are doing a fabulous job keeping the fans informed and current with Randy's activities. This takes me back to the early days of Randy's career. When he was heavily promoted. I can't say enough about how pleased this all makes me. As I'm quite certain it does every Randy fan. Randy is the best. He deserves this kind of support. Dee
