other than the symbol at the top of the page.
i was just about to ask the same question... probably an album teaser... might not be Big B though.
i am intrigued.. :)
good advertising, leave all with a question on their mind and they will become intrigued by it and then all wait waht it is
i hope its a Buckethead album or something like that
when will there be any new about this?
I\'m intrigued as well, what is Yan Kàn Travis? Whatever it is, this is some great marketing. Get the people scratching their heads before revealing what it is.
Can\'t you at least give us a hint Travis? It\'s something that has got to do with music, right? Are you involved, or Buckethead? Tell us, please. ;D
think it might be a new tour cd from bucket? :-/
doe.....Yan Kàn..... 8)
right now on tk there are a few posibilities:
1- a Tour CD (coclusion based on the first part of his tour, he had some weeks off from time to time)
2- an album from another artists that isnt Buckethead (well its ovious it will come this conclusion also)
Hello. The character means dragon in Chinese (same as in Japanese kanji, i.e. Chinese characters).
Can\'t say for sure what "yan kàn" is. It isn\'t the way to pronounce "dragon" though.
wow new clues :P
if you see the page says D.O.E
if you put that new clue it will be D (Dragon).O.E
we need the 2 other letters
i think, it has something to do with Bruce Lee, theres a lot of stuff where hes called Dragon and we know that Buckethead is a huge fan of him
D.O.E. ?
deviance of evil
defenders of earth
dept of energy
depending on experience
design of experiments
date of entry
? ? ?
over 200 more D.O.E.\'s here, and I doubt any apply: http://www.acronymattic.com/DOE.html
Whatever it is Travis put me down for one, I like a good suprise!
just emailed travis maybe that\'ll get us all an answer to what this mystery is
I hope it is a tour cd as i am seeing him twice in the next 2 months. ;D
i\'m seeing him 6 times in october yaaaaaaaaaay! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D i\'m so happy, hope i get some more toys to add to my collection :P
The tension is killing me!! >:( :o :o :o
THE EMBLEM CHANGED
i am 99.9999....% its something from Buckethead
hope im not wrong
It changed again. It\'s got to be a Buckethead album. To let everyone get excited like this, then turn round and say it\'s not Buckethead would be far too cruel. I know you wouldn\'t treat us like that Travis.
Peace out
im hoping to be a Buckethead album, i will definetly buy it cuz my Birthday was 14/9 and i got some money.
what a better thing to spend it on
plz travis confirm something
Looking the little letters and mixing doe with the begin of letters, in my opinion, i think that the title it can be:
The Dragons Of Eden
...probably...
That is also a book speaking about human intelligence...
http://www.amazon.com/Dragons-Eden-Speculations-Evolution-Intelligence/dp/0345346297
...probably...
And this is the author
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Sagan
i\'m starting to see letters, maybe in a couple more days we\'ll know ;D
Quotei\'m starting to see letters, maybe in a couple more days we\'ll know ;D
The letters mean "The Dragons of Eden"
and yan kàn means "Coming Soon"
haha - travis is counting our clicks: http://www.tdrsmusic.com/ccount/

two cents

i think the name is Dragon of the East i like it and we are not copying Looking for Eden of Science Faxtion
So looking buckethead.tk it seems i\'m the first person who discover the mystery of Yan Kàn AKA The Dragons Of Eden.
Yahooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
OK, now the cat is out of the bag, I\'ll have more information here is a few hours.
it was fun while it lasted Travis :)
i was just over at the .tk and i\'m shocked and upset someone would go that far to get something that would of eventually been up on the site.
thanks for the last couple days travis, been fun.

First, a little housekeeping. Everything is back in order here. The Dragons CD was not supposed to be announced till today after the first tour show where 3 new CDs where offered for sale. It was a little dull around here so I started what I though were pretty obscure glues above the posts here on the forum. So congratulations on figuring out the chinese character for Dragon and for translating "coming soon". Also to AKA johnny for figuring out the title.
I apologize to all of you who emailed asking what it meant and I didn\'t respond, but really, what fun would that have been.
Lastly, last night samples of the CD were leaked out by someone poking around my site. That person emailed me and apologized. The site wasn\'t hacked after all. He exploited a hole I didn\'t think of, very cleaver and must have spent a good deal of time trying it this way and that till he figured it out. I understand his enthusiasm and accept his apology and it was mostly my fault, I will be more careful in the future.
OK, I think that brings us up to date.
Of the three new CDs on the tour, two of them will be tour only for the time being. The third one, "The Dragons Of Eden", will be for sale here later today. A page will be posted offering the CD and the samples will be available there as well. I\'ll announce when the other CDs will be available in a few days. Check back this afternoon and everything should be up.
awesome news travis. thank you!!

hope the tour-only-cds will be available online soon - i dont have a chance getting my hands on them her in germany otherwise. :(

THeese things would be great if happen every month!!!!!!
;D ;D ;D
Travis sorry to bother you more but can you tell us the track listing and the time i would like to put the information on wikipedia.
The Dragon is very pretty. Looks like fun.
been checking the website every 15 minutes since Travis\'s post. Just ordered Dragons... can\'t wait to get it. Thanks Travis, as always YOU ROCK!!!
I would have bought all 3 cds if they where available. :p
Just have to be satisfied with one CD. :\'(
So, just a question for you Travis: for us non-US bots who won\'t be able to get the tour only cd\'s, around what time can we expect to be able to buy them through this site? Just a rough estimate perhaps?
I want to get them all.. :\'(
EDIT: Sorry, just noticed that you\'ll reveal the release dates at a later date.. guess I\'ll just have to wait then. ;D
ordered Dragons and Deer...
fun times yeeeaaahhh!!!!!!!!!!!!
will order the rest later, along with\'m others.
Thanks for the awesome mystery Travis.
;D
Chris DiCicco
I can\'t wait to hear when the other two will be available. I need to know whether to get my Chicago bot to get the CDs for me at the show. Otherwise, I might be able to road trip to Towson, MD to the show.
I\'m hitting the Chicago show next weekend, so hopefully I\'ll get at least one. Probably can\'t afford more than that. Albino, perhaps.
