I’m so glad to see y’all are still embracing this forward and collective-thinking the Mayans lived by. Can’t wait to see what’s ahead!

The graphic that STS9 is using to promote this is know as the Hunab Ku. Found in reference to the Maya Calender systems and in the codex the Chilam Balam. Its supposed to be quasi-symbolic of dualism and quasi-representational of a spiral galaxy..the milky way. To read more about this nonsense see The Mayan Factor or Mayan Sacred Science, although I cant recommend either seeing as neither author (“Maya historians”) understand that the word Mayan is used to describe a language and the word Maya is used to describe a people. Now everyone that read this has one more useless fact and one less usefull fact in their head
Don’t believe the hype. Cya in Colo tribe and shame on you for hyping a bunk a$$ symbol. Love.
November 6th, 2011 at 9:10 am
Please grace us with a glimpse of this at 5 night. Crazy things will happen on NYE. Don’t ever let the music stop. Please.
November 6th, 2011 at 12:35 pm
Please, Please, Please stop by Baltimore,Maryland…
or even D.C
November 6th, 2011 at 12:53 pm
please come to FLAGSTAFF!!! much love! see you in 2012
November 6th, 2011 at 1:09 pm
“Maya is the people and Mayan is the language”. ??? So as a people we are America and when you say American, you are referring only to our language and not our people. Critical yet flawed logic…..
November 6th, 2011 at 7:26 pm
In support of the use of the Hunab Ku… If you choose to be skeptical of every idea, symbol, or person based solely on historical accuracy or some irrefutable scientific proof, then you will always be disappointed.
A symbol is a symbol. A picture, representing an idea. The symbol does not transmit the meaning of an idea, it only alludes to it. What is important is the intended meaning, the sentiment, that is being expressed by using a symbol like the Hunab Ku or by saying In Lak’ech. The meaning, the sentiment, is far more important than who created it, and why, and when, and who did it first, and whether it could also represent something other than the intended meaning here. It is not about “hype”. It is about communication.
I would be upset by your ignorance if I wasn’t you. In peace…

Never ending love and thanks for always keeping us on our toes. I am on my 10th year of seeing this band and feel blessed you are still making new music for us. Xo See you in the spring.
November 8th, 2011 at 12:55 pm
I know you guys have already chosen some and you probably do not get your ideas from these posts, but State Bridge near in Bond CO, near Vale is the an incredible place. It would be my wish to see the most magical band play in the most magical place. If STS9 came to State Bridge it would be an experience, performance, and atmosphere better than any other concert; and I know that all tribe heads and all of the members of the band would feel great about it. Consider State Bridge for what sounds like the best year of touring in history.
November 16th, 2011 at 3:55 pm
Just make sure the sector9 is along with when yall get to ATL.
November 19th, 2011 at 1:04 am
Dusty, Maya are the people, they are not Mayan, they are the Maya or the Mayas, Mayan in a language. If you doubt this look it up its very easy information to find. America is a place, the people living in it are Americans, or humans…and we speak English, not American. Samma, sorry you misconstrued my words, I love the meaning and the sentiment but in reality the Hunab Ku is a bunk symbol and cant even be traced back to any meso-american culture. I have always dug tribes concepts, I just wish in this instance they would have used something more pertinent to the idea, such as the Tzolkin or a Quetzalcoatl pictograph. This is how rumors get started (like the world ending in 2012)
Communicate the truth….
