β | * "[[June 9th]]" is thought to be a reference to the date in which the report on the Challenger disaster was released. This date is also the ninth day of the sixth month, a reference to the "69" theme throughout some of [[BoC]]'s other music.
| |
β | * More interestingly, "[[June 9th]]" is the date the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) opened its investigation into the WACO compound following the purchase of a significant number of firearms. according to the report " it was classified as sensitive, "thereby calling for a high degree of oversight" from both Houston and headquarters." There are many references to the WACO compound and branch davidians like in the song ''[[1969]]'' or ''[[In a Beautiful Place out in the Country (release)]]''.
| |
β | * In numerous interviews, Boards of Canada have referred to "[[Red_Moon_incident|Red Moon]] nights", free-form outdoor gatherings with friends, music, movies and bonfires that Hexagon Sun has celebrated for years. The [[Red Moon incident]] appeared to reference an event on June 10th, 2006. Also, the album ''[[Tomorrow's Harvest]]'' was released on June 10th, 2013. It's possible that the Red Moon party is held around this time each year. Assuming the event is held on a Saturday, the latest time June 9th falls on a Saturday before this song was released would be in 1990.
