YOUR MOTHER’S DAY WEAKEND TOP 15 CHART PREVIEW
Hold on to your bouquets, moms, cuz as many as nine titles could debut inside next week's Top 15. The decidedly non-sentimental Godsmack still gets the edge for #1, while Lady Antebellum and MercyMe appear to be locked in battle for the #2 spot. The Mother's Day weekend and the opening of Iron Man 2 will help drive sales through the weekend and could deliver a few surprises come Monday morning. But here’s how things are shaping up at this point:
* Godsmack (Universal Republic) 100-110k
Lady Antebellum (Capitol Nashville/EMI) 85-90k
