2012 DMB Studio Album : New Beginnings : Power of 8

Okay at first I was just screwing around but oddly enough this works out and Dave is weird enough to do something bizarre like this.

Anyone familiar with numerology?

You find the base number by adding the single numbers until you have only one number remaining.

346: 3 + 4 + 6 = 13: 1 + 3 = 4

39: 3 + 9 = 12: 1 + 2 = 3

So we have two numerical values, one given by Fonz, the other by Steve

2 weeks, 3 days: 14 days + 3 days = 17, 1 + 7 = 8

9:44: 9 + 4 + 4 = 17, 1 + 7 = 8

Both of these come out to the number 8.

This will be the bands 8th studio album.

The numerical Meaning of Number 8 in Chinese Numerology is “New Beginning”. It is the number representing power and sudden fortune. According to some people, number 8 is linked with the symbol which stands for infinity.

Based on the 8 and 17's, my guess is going to be that the album is released:

5/9/12: 5 + 9 + 1 + 2 = 17, 7 + 1 = 8.

You're welcome.


Okay so this is 99% entirely tongue in cheek, but I love finding patterns. Any other 8's you can think of to turn this into a full blown conspiracy theory?

    *starts slow clap*

    And I don't mean this tongue in cheek. Interesting stuff, even if it turns out to be nothing (highly likely )

    A few years ago I got really into reading all I could about Gematria & Kabbalah, I found it incredibly interesting. Yup, I'm a dork. That's all I got.

    although i think this is really cool and quite interesting. lillywhite tweeted that the 9:44 was the minute marking of a goal scored in a soccer game he was watching...

    As interesting as this is, I really hope the album is not released before the start of the tour. I don't want an album tour, I want them to have free range with setlists for the summer while integrating new songs here and there, release the album, then come back for a fall/winter album tour.

    I recall someone tweeting him about the 9:44 in reference to the Chelsea game and he said something along the lines of them scoring before that time but never confirmed the 9:44 tweet was about that game. Unless there's a separate tweet I don't know about.

    EXACTLY. He said they scored 3 goals by 9:44 when someone mentioned it possibly being related to the game. Maybe I'm misinterpreting the tweet but I think you are.

    He didn't tweet that. When somebody asked him if it was about soccer, he said "...i think Chelsea scored 3 by 9;44!"

    Good call on both posts.

    So let's just do Tuesday, June 26, 2012. 6/26/12 : 6 + 2 + 6 + 1 +2 = 17 = 7 + 1 = 8

    In fact, the 26th is even better since 26 itself is a base 8.
