 		Stockholm Syndrome
An ARG to the new album of Derek Webb?
OK, firstly, I don't know anything about Derek Webb and his music. I just stumble across this tweet:

Quote:
Derek Webb is most definitly using an alternate reality game in the release of his latest album - http://bit.ly/1aSwb3 check comments.

http://twitter.com/CoffeeWithChris/status/1850047481

It was a link to this blog:
http://myradeus.com/pastorchris/pastorchris/whats-going-on-here/

Short said, Chris, a blogger (and Twitterer) received a letter from Derek Webb about his new album "Stockholm Syndrome" (btw for reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stockholm_syndrome if you don't know about this psychologic phenomenon)

In the mail Derek Webb explaned some problems with publishing company with one song. The next mail was alarming. (I post full text, hopefull Chris doesn't mind)

friends-
this is turning into a bigger deal than we expected. as a result, we're having to temporarily _pull everything online down (can't explain now). and to be on the s_afe side, i'm going to pe_rsonally go offline while we sort this out. i re_ally shouldn't use my twitter account for now either so _don't expect any updates there.

make no m_istake, our trouble with the label over content i_s very real, and not as simple as one word; we're back_ed into a corner. but we have applied all of our creative resources to th_is, working furiou_sly to create something that we believe not only subverts any leg_al issues but should also be a _pretty wild ride.

so this will be the l_ast email for a while. we'll t_ry to lea_k information via a new tw_itter account, @ssyndrome. you're o_n your own so start payin_g attention. i'l_l see you _on the o_ther side-
derek


Interesting thing is, every letter after "_" sign build a message:
Quote:
"Paradise is a parking lot"
.

What could it be?..

UPDATE. The twitter http://twitter.com/ssyndrome writes about a Nashville artifacts. Do we know, what is it?
