No, this is not obvious. Not by a long shot.
Whilst it is logical for the album to be out before then, the shows so no devolution from Eminem's recent trend of performing in the summer months. Considering he will be performing from July/August on-wards, unless album information is released within the next two weeks, the album sales will suffer from lack of advertisement. This is fundamental for both Interscope and both future posters in this thread to realise.
Eminem has until October to release news. For all we know the album could surface in December.
All we have to go by is the fact that Jimmy has already stated that the show's will be of new music, it would also serve zero purpose and waste money and time to have show's full of Recovery song's when he has an album dropping in the near future, I also see no promotional value in performing song's that are 3 year's old other than the fact that he would be starting a tour again, considering the 2 rumoured date's are very close. Considering all of the rumour's going around now about the new album, they can only keep people talking for so long till there is nothing to talk about anymore. They don't want that, they want people to constantly talk about it to create more buzz. I expect any combination of a tracklist, album title or single (or single name) within a month and the album to drop within the next 2 month's, maybe sooner.
