HITNRUN - Promotion-spotting.

It'd be nice to keep track of what promotion the album is getting. If you spot something, let us know!

Cameron Glover on Twitter posted these pictures of Times Square and the Subway station there.

Released on the 14?

Are you sure these are real pix and not that app where you can generate a pic and put it on random places...

Yes, they are real.

Here's one that someone else took. That billboard is made up of 4 panels. You can see that the saturation settings have been set a little higher on the top right screen.

It's playing with my eyes. In the second picture Prince's cartoon image looks like it's leaning to the right. That can't be right?
What?

I saw it three times in the SF Bay area on the electronic billboards; twice going south on the 101 and again coming off of the 92.

Couldn't take a photo because I was in the car but it's also on a very big billboard here in Los Angeles by the freeway. Think it was the 10.

yes there is a booklet with the lyrics smile but there's no pictures in the booklet, it's very simple. Not like the one on PLEL, and there's no lyrics for Like a mack

It's obviously not a hard-and-fast rule as Prince and Universal have broken it, as evidenced by this tweet from a Texas Target:

and similar reports from Orgers (and even illicit early purchases) on this thread:

cd is out in germany since monday... strange because friday is the release day ... distributor is universal label is just NPG nothing like def jam or roc nation...

by the way - i havnt seen any promotion for the album so far. no reviews no radio no print ... ANO was promoted and got a lot of press but PE not that much ...

HNR is fallin on the amazon charts like on itunes charts
