''Our US tour begins in November. The last show of this tour will be our last US show for 2013. And we ain't playin' this time y0.''
And you could very well be right. It just doesn't make much sense to me given the band's schedule. They're embarking on a month long Asia tour and then Chester is touring with STP for a month. Between that and the fact there's been no confirmation that either the mall soundtrack or LP's new record are anywhere close to finished, it kind of discredits the chance of the announcement being new music. Sure maybe they'll play new stuff at the Asia tour like they did with QWERTY but a studio track? Not likely. Just being a realist here.

I have a feeling it's for something presently unannounced. Why ELSE would he say "Within the next month"? That leaves too much leeway for it to be the LPU sessions and the band isn't sloppy enough to not leave room for error in date estimates like that in regards to interview publishing time. They've done this kinda stuff too many times before for me to believe that's the case. And if it were, I'm damn well sure Mike would have said something on twitter about it as to not get fans hopes up too much.
I think they would do something all fans could get excited about. Not everyone is in the LPU... including me.... which sucks

I'd guess that that's just coverage of the SSMF rehearsals for future LPTV episodes. A live DVD would be a cool thing for them to unexpectedly announce, though
Doubt they'd do it on the first show of the tour. Anyway, can't wait for the LPTV. Maybe we'll get some of that new music Mike talked about a few months ago. EDIT: The news definitely aren't a US tour. They're pretty clear this is the last one for US.
''You can expect to hear some of that new music on the LPTV's in a few months'' - In May. Considering the LPTV's will probably start coming early September, there's a big chance we get something.
I'm placing my bet on The Mall soundtrack, as much as I'd love for an announcement for the sixth album I know that's a pretty long shot. I guess anything is possible for what's actually going to be announced whenever it happens.
