Is he asking about streaming options for The Waterfall? Or is this about playing every track from the album during concerts?!?

Big Decisions. Hot Debate.
How can you dam a Waterfall? That shit is meant to stream. Hearing one song from an album is like thinking you lead an individualized existence...it is a self-imposed boundary upon a limitless concept. Let it flow, bros.

Dude...I think maybe we thought this same thought at the same time.
I feel like something is in the works.....just a hunch
Toasting you both with a White Russian of my own...

Did it sound like he was in a bathtub to you too?! :bath:
:bath: or is that just, like, my opinion?

Or a giant pizza and kool-aid concert at Niagara falls?! Complete with hot air balloon rides all the way to Newark?!
It never hurts to dream big.

I'm gonna check out Gilt City to see there's a presale for my imaginary event. PROMO CODE: GILT TRIP

Yes please...it's been too long!!
are they debating whether or not to release OBH 2 until after the album is released? Or release it sans the new tracks temporarily?
All of the songs

I would like both an early stream and to hear the album in its entirety at Red Rocks followed by great selection of bad ass tunes.

I could go for a caucasian. Maybe the Hot Debate is whether or not to bring a Marmot into the bathtub while listening to "Song of the Whale"
Pipe dreams: mastering t5 box set OR surprise releasing both the new albums at once

Wooooow. Best. Scenario. Ever. #e_windwins
Sounds like something that was captured while recording these albums and waiting for playback.
Hot Debate is the name of the second album, lock it down.
To be honest, i have no idea what is going on here anymore. One thing is for certain, they are excited..and messing with us
It's funny how speculative the train of thought is around here lately... especially since they've been dripping these little seeds into our heads.
Pipe Dreams:
Let's take a look at Athens. Why have they left that show off of the fb upcoming events?Is it because it's an anomaly and they may play the new record in its entirety? With a 9pm show time, no opener & a 2am curfew, they can likely fit it in while also providing another full set and encore.
In all liklihood:
I have a feeling it has to do with the release of the OBH2 shows. Still, this is all very curious.
MARK IT ZERO!

This sounds like the most realistic theory. I'd be fine with them omitting the new ish and then making them available after the official release.
I'm going with them releasing 'Hot Debate' with The Waterfall on May 4th.

I think they're just messing with us, trying to create excitement.
...and...tapping. :thumbsup:
Keep the weirdness flowing, fellas!
I think the key word here is "listen." They didn't say, "do we want to PLAY some songs or all songs," they said, "do we want to listen to some songs or all songs." (paraphrasing)
So I don't think this has to do with a live show that is coming up.
That leaves:
T5
The Waterfall: Streaming Preview Online as with Jim's solo album (that was in full i believe)
OBH2 Tapes
The idea that they are drumming up excitement in what is now sort of a dead zone or calm before the storm makes the most sense. I'm not sure what they are all doing at the moment but Patrick mentioned in that twitter post how much he enjoys the chaos and excitement of prepping for a big tour. I'm assuming they are all together somewhere getting ready, rehearsing and what not. Probably really excited and just joking around with their news posts and tweets between sessions. The fact that they stacked the tapping below the hot debate means they could be connected.
Here's what i'm thinking.... i think Tapping is sneak preview of one of the new songs, maybe the first one on the album. I think that either they were working out the song, maybe patrick was trying to synchronize a drum pattern to a certain part of the song and someone was recording at the time (or possible are recording all the time for documentary purposes), OR, they just created a goofed out snippet version of the song just for posting on the site.
Either way, i think there are going to be 11 total news posts when all is said and done ;)
The fact that Big Decisions doesn't come til later in in the album means that they can get away with more mystery up until that point.. since we've all now heard the song a billion times we would instantly recognize any part of it probably. This next one will be telling with Compound Fracture next on the tracklisting.....if they do go in order that is.
When I listened to 'tapping' last night... I was reminded of an interview w/ JJ that I read some years ago. He explained that part of his process was to have a recording device on hand, be it a phone today or a 4-track in the old days. When the glimpse of a song struck him, he'd lay down a beat and hum/sing a melody over the top as a reminder of that spark.
It seems likely that this is a peek into the base layer of one of the new tracks.
Aha! I knew it.
Related note, so psyched to hear the demo of Only Memories Remain on that 7"
a hot debate indeed.

They don't put nobodies on cereal boxes...
And now they have posted "electric". Also 30 seconds. With speed that these are going out and still a month and three weeks til the album comes out i wonder if we can expect a ton more..and i wonder if we can layer these to make whole songs. I can monkey with whatever is all posted by tomorrow

Ha! My wife just said the same thing. Should be a fun experiment nonetheless...
