    That’s literally just an XLR3 plug. It’s used for analog audio and DMX lighting controls.

    Don’t know why you’d put it in a rock though.

      Haha yeah, I sell these at work and recognised it immediately! It’s literally just the inner part you solder the wires onto, without the outer casing.

      Well duh, it’s because we used the alien technology for ourselves in our most important projects.

      XLR3 stands for Planet X (the place the aliens came from) Long Range (because it’s far away, duh) and 3 is because it took three tries to plug the rock in correctly.

      It’s a good way to get attention. It’s working right now. It may have also been useful for increasing his bank account with the money of morons.
