Yeah but we don't know how many of those six (besides DDTS apparently) are gonna be used for promotion. Like, we know that the Seth Green video will air on an episode of Robot Chicken, but I can't really imagine MTV or something airing it.

Now I really can't wait until Monday, so we can sort out the truth of all of this!

That's an understatement! Just when I think we've figured something out, new info pops up and throws everything on it's head. :wacko: Spoiler hunting and speculation that follows has been a ton of fun so far for this album. :D

Yeah. This album has sorta been like a game to figure out what is coming next. I'm ready for the album to be out, but I'll miss being on my toes waiting for just a little taste of what is coming.

Wow...this is interesting. Well hey, some artists release two singles at the same time (Especially if one's only likely to appeal to the biggest fans) and we know W&N's being filmed.

Maybe this is another "new" marketing decision Al's employing for this album


Well, until Monday night and Wednesday, we won't know what's happening....

I think Al's publicist (or Al himself) really has their stuff together this time around. It's possible he did this to make sure there wasnt a repeat of Poodle Hat's fate. Most of the public didn't know about that release, which doesn't look to be the case this time around.

Oooh, great thinking. Maybe he decided on a "backup" in case Chamillionaire decided to pull an Eminem and he didn't want to be rushed into another "Bob" situation.


Thankfully, Chamillionaire has proven he likes attention ;)

If DDTS is the free download on Monday, unfortunately that would disqualify it from ever being on the Billboard Digital Download chart (I had visions of it being #1 based on the title alone). The Download chart only applies to downloads that are paid for.
This means something. This is important.

Well, let's hope that those of us who want White and Nerdy to be the free download on Monday are right. That would be a boon for Al is DDTS made that list, especially if it went to #1!

The fact that there will be a video premiere on Yahoo Videos for DDTS wouldn't disqualify it, right?
4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

"How's Problem Child doing?" - 7/12/11

So awesome!

But if W&N premieres Monday and DDTS premieres Wednesday, that means we'll only get TEN new songs on September 26th. :(
