ok not much there but then the next paragraph came this...

I forgot about this until today and of course when i saw the first picture they posted of the show i thought it was a baseball diamond. It makes for a good basis to my theory that it will indeed be a very important show that is going to be much different as expected, or maybe not so much to the ones who are correct.
so what are your thoughts on the theory that the Gov Ball Contract saying they need to be debuting new music? (which by the way i haven't bothered to try and research- can anyone verify that?)

When i read about the negotiations, I had the thought that they might drop on a streaming service for a period of time before they sell physical albums… which they could do through their online store and drive the price with some art/packaging goodies. I also was wondering if they would dabble in VR/360 video. The gorillaz have some shit like that coming soon and that would be some next level shit for the videos AJ & Grey put together.
