...I still believe.

You'd have to be a right mofo @ A/S to put up such a BoC-esque picture in such a BoC-esque a cryptic message like that. Especially after what happened a year ago to the day.

...and I guess I just have slightly more faith in BoC-related humanity than that...

...perhaps wrongly -_-

I have mixed feelings about what it could mean. The most obvious thing (which I mentioned earlier) is that BoC could be playing the Adult Swim upfront, which is in a couple of weeks. The only problem with that is that Outkast is already confirmed to be playing there. Maybe they will have 2 acts? I believe Kanye West played there last year and I believe that was unannounced prior to the event, but I could be wrong.

I really don't think it has anything to do with new material, if it's even a real thing.

I really doubt it would be a live show on Adult Swim. That said, I personally don't think it's anything to be honest (Hope I'm wrong, but can't get hyped over this, doesn't seem likely). If anything, I would imagine it's tunes to come (an EP perhaps, but still really doubt it) and not a live show on there.

Well, typically (someone correct me if I'm wrong) the shows played for the Adult Swim upfronts aren't actually broadcast on television, they're just media events that aren't open to the public.

Could be man, must admit I'm not at all familiar with AS. I just don't have much faith in a show at all on AS. I also think if if it was new music, they (or Warp) wouldn't announce it, however cryptically, through AS.

I can see this place out of my attic window. 8)

It's not the one in the Tweeted pic though. The building at the base and the top of the dome are different.

Yep. Beyond a couple of vaguely BOC-ism images tweeted by Adult Swim, precisely *nothing* has happened. You've not missed anything ;)

You have missed a whole load of balls for 6 pages, admittedly hexagon patterned balls, but just balls literally.

There most certainly was a BoC song playing with the image of the radio tower. That's really the only thing that might keep the theory going. If anyone else wants to check out Adult Swim tonight to see if they play that bump again be my guest, since apparently these bumps have been going on for weeks.

Can any fellow Canadian brethren confirm that we can get AS up here in Canada? Is it in partnership with another company, or am I up a shit river without a paddle?

They just recently tweeted that it's not boc related, sadly.

I do feel a new EP will be on its way soon though, they have always released an EP around the time of each of their albums right? Especially with all this talk of live performances.

If the boys know we're expecting an ep, I think it'll leave them more inclined to do the opposite, unfortunately. But who knows.

They have made it clear there will be a live performance thanks to their 'like' on Facebook. No doubt that that's next on the cards.

Soon little boclings, soon

Oh, well. It's been fun guys, for 2 days we actually thought that it might be BoC teasing us.

So long my hyped Branch Davidians.
