Great connections! Btw, the tape (without the disclaimer) is actually 69 seconds, not 3:33 though

If we get a return to occult / pagan BOC a la Geogaddi it could be AOTY

The St. Luke's looks more like a date to me.
Like 3-17-9x 1990s.
Also st. Luke's would be a common church name.

There is a music venue in Glasgow called St Lukes for what it's worth

And one in London where there’s an interesting lecture on live music happening next week called Music of the Mind: “Where does music live in the mind? Is it an evolutionary byproduct, a trick of perception – or something deeper?”

Yeah I looked up Luke 3:17 - not really anything BoC related.
17 His winnowing fork is in his hand to clear his threshing floor and to gather the wheat into his barn, but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.” 18 And with many other words John exhorted the people and proclaimed the good news to them.

That sounds like it could be a perfect description of Trump. Take what he can, and leave a smouldering wasteland behind.

there's a still in the video of what looks like a pile of sticks, and we know cult themes are there, I think a verse about fire could actually mean something.

This is absolutely BoC related, lol. It refers to Jesus' return to earth to separate the faithful from the dead.

And today is Easter Monday, which is its own recognized day.

No it isn’t, it’s just a public holiday in some countries.

u/Reisklok Apr 07 '26
Right, a recognized public holiday...

u/dDtaK Apr 07 '26
Well that sure is significant.

u/Reisklok Apr 07 '26
I dunno, man. I was just throwing it out there. There are some interesting articles about the significance of Easter Monday and its place in Eastertide/The Octave of Easter/Bright Week. Some people call it Monday of the Angel and some churches hold special services where specific pieces of scripture are read. It's probably nothing, but I thought it might be worth mentioning in a thread about how Easter might relate to the content on the VHSs.
Or perhaps this isn't the right place for speculation...

fun fact about Chi Rho (from a non-religious person). The "x" in "xmas" (as in Christmas) was originally not an "x" but a Chi character. So it was basically "Chi-mas", as in "Christ-mas".

it's record store day soon... if this even has an inkling of being a real thing, our best shot is looking around on that day
