Post filled in: Alternative Rock, News
In a previous post we discussed about the strange 2 countdowns that appeared on the Rage Against The Machine website, well the mystery is revealed ! In a wikipedia update we can see that if a user forwards his pc’s internal clock to the respective dates ( June 11 or August 24 ) the webpage’s secretes are revealed! Neet, right ?
“The website is registered to Live Nation Worldwide, Inc. Live Nation owns Alpine Valley Music Theatre, in East Troy Wisconsin. By turning your PC clock forward to June 11 the website reveals that RATM will be playing a show there when the second countdown ends on August 24, 2007.”

it’s innovative, but it’s nothing amazing (flash/javascript can easily be made to do that). Also there sorta copying the Nine Inch Nail’s website (which IMO was a better campaign)

so… that doesn’t work for me? maybe they fixed it on the site or something… does anyone know what the countdowns are counting towards?

From what i am aware, after the first countdown expires tickets will be put on sale for the upcoming festival that will be held on the date the 2nd countdown expires. I hear it’s in Wisconsin, USA, but i’m not very sure :). As for the countdown they’ve been fixed by the RATM webmasters
it doesn’t work anymore.
