The current issue of Rolling Stone magazine has a brief article about bands releasing their own stuff, rather than through a label. Journey is mentioned (page 11 and 12). It says the band's royalty from the Walmart deal is about 4 times what it would be with a traditional record company.

If it sells, looks like the guys may be in for some cash.

I looked at Rolling Stone.com for a link, but no luck. The article may be too new (current edition with the Stones and Jack White?) on the cover.

This is why I'm thinking if WalMart is going to paying out that much royalty, they're gonna damn well make sure this Journey CD/DVD package sells well for them! I predict Revelation will be PLATINUM by the end of the summer and Journey will be all over the radio and TV again!
