"Scavenger Hunt" is a generous name for putting up billboards and telling your fans where they are.

True. Well whatever they have cooked up seems like it will carry on for a bit. Unless something is revealed Monday.

But then why waste the resources to set this up if it’s only for 3 days?

*shrug*

Is it really using a lot of resources to have people just put up small billboards in 11 cities? Feels pretty easy.

I don’t feel like they can drag this out too long, unless they just keep dropping cities and new ads.

the longer they drag this out, the longer they can continue to do nothing on the new album front.

There's no way they can drag this out, it will at least progress toward something. Society loses interest in everything too quickly these days. We'll have SOMETHING else by Monday at the latest. Could just be more online PR stuff like the scavenger hunt or even the album announcement and the first single. We shall see...

"Here's our new single, new album is out next month. See you on the road, etc."

I agree and what they’re doing instead reeks of desperation.

It doesn't feel desperate to me. Maybe a tad misguided. But it just seems like a way to engage fandom. *shrugs*

Whatever, I had fun yesterday. It'll end up being way more frustrating if nothing comes of it by Monday, though.

Exactly. Well said.

I just don’t have time for this shit. At least not in real time. I have to catch up at night instead of watching E9 of Messiah.

Which segment of the fan base does have time? We know nobody is in their teens/twenties. So that leaves the unemployed and the retired, right?

So just Doug

If raising awareness about issues X, Y and Z finally leads to new music.... great. It’s about more than the music at this point for anybody still hanging on anyway whether we like it or not.

Were the 11 locations selected at random or is there more to it?

so my guess is this is about glacial meltwater

drip, drip, then the glacier splits
