+ | * In numerous interviews, Boards of Canada have referred to "[[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. | ||
