mystry guitars on billboards

Anyone else see the random guitar-showing-up-in-strange-places billboards around town?

There’s one on 10th and Hennepin, downtoan — an old lady in her kitchen holding up a piece of toast with an electric guitar burned into it.
There’s another one in NE on Hennepin and 5th (ish) — A dude holding a two by four with a guitar-shaped wood knot.

I’m perplexed and intrigued, and I realize what I’m doing now is exactly what the advertisement is meant to make us do, and I don’t care. Though I do sorta hope it ends up revealing something cool, and not for the next big White Snake tour… (no offense if you happen to like White Snake…) or for another crappy commercial radio station (which was my best friend’s guess.)

    Whatever it is, it’s better than that stupid blimp that Fox 9 News sent around for weeks.

    I just saw the one with the wood knot guitar on a bus shelter at Hennepin and 27th (or maybe it was 26th). Still no idea.

    Aha!

    Maybe the blimp was better.
