Any clue?

Billy is pregnant with Jeff's baby!

For shame

AND THEY'RE HAVING TWINS!

btw, my sources say that this IS going to be an itunes exclusive and it IS going to be released in Jan.


and it's not going to be a studio version of Gossamer.

Then he can raise the babies to play instruments and fire everybody else and he can now have his own band mini corgans

and the kids will record on the next record!

And it's only Billy and Jimmy in the studio for this.

And they only have 2 weeks to pop it out.

thats some mighty fine info you have there Gossamer, mighty fine.

yeah I thought you guys would enjoy that.

I think there was more but I forgot.

my sources tell me this is going to suck.

and the kids will record on the next record!
it'll be like this!

Little billy gives me the creeps.

He sure has the Corgan hunch nailed.

the d'arcy and little d'arcy hand action is what freaks me out.
little jimmy is just a cute kid.
they did a good job w/ lil james

i wonder what those little bastards are up to today....

i think it should be noted lil james had to be played by a girl in that picture

i wonder what those little bastards are up to today....
DOIN' DRUGS

i think it should be noted lil james had to be played by a girl in that picture
i was thinking the same exact thing.

jimmy is the only real man in this band.

oh, and what's this thread about anyway? who said anything about a surprise? what? where? huh??

Jimmy should be the Brawny man.

Somebody whip him up a stack of flapjacks.


as for the suprise wuh ?

if Billy and Jimmy are in the studio alone again they should change the Band name to Genesis II.

i think people have been keepin us in the dark skipgo.

oh, on myspace
it said something about a surprise

yay itunes

not

i hope the new songs are cool, i'm maybe one of the few people optimistic about it and not waiting like a vulture to rip and tear the new material apart...

you know what sucks? when you have to go to the bathroom but you are the only one in the office and you can't just leave because the phones might ring. :(

hmmm Gossamer gots some inside info? Where'd ya get it?

Greetings, I hope these words find you all at peace.

First I'd like to thank everyone for their prayers and energy. It was well received and I'm feeling much better. The tour was a rock rampage and now we are back in the studio recording some songs for a possible release worldwide.

Look for these around the first of the year. Busy Bees !

I wish all a Happy Holiday and a productive 08!

well yeah...where's the suprise? Jimmy basically spilled everything. SO the answer to this thread is :The Pumpkins are in the studio.

ahhhh so 'nuffin new

the suprise is that waltermcphilp had to go potty, but couldn't.

thats a pretty shitty surprise!

yeah man, tell me about it!
ahhh, mid afternoon potty humor....

i just heard Christmastime. cool because i only listen to it this time of year, so there's no burn-out. i won't listen to any x-mas music (even if it's sp) other times of the year.

christmas music makes me want to punch my grandma.

poor grandma! Walter gets feisty when he needs to poop.

yeah man, take the phone off the hook and go already, don't talk about laying the smackdown on gram!!

no! i'm not going to go just to spite both of you! :jump:

i think you're doing yourself a huge diservice if you go through with that.

i know :(

i don't have to go that bad. i'm a big boy, i can hold it for a little longer.

walter make boomboom

i want to see this xmas movie called olive, the other reindeer. whos seen it?

oh I've seen that! it's cute. drew barrymore does the voice of olive. Michael Stipe is in it too. Pretty good little christmas cartoon.

i know of it, never seen it.

everyone, please, just watch the original claymations from the 70's - Rudolph and santa clause is coming to town

http://www.movies-on-demand.tv/movie/1201-Olive_the_Other_Reindeer_1999.html
apparently you can watch it there, but my browser won't let me.

it was on last night on fox.

i know of it, never seen it.

everyone, please, just watch the original claymations from the 70's - Rudolph and santa clause is coming to town

i watched both of those last week. I still need to see a christmas story and it's a wonderful life to make christmas complete. Oh and i missed charlie brown this year :(

christmas story is also good. we always watch the 24 hours on TBS. a muppets christmas carol is also acceptable.

has tbs done that yet this year? it's always been a big thing in my family to watch that. I got a little ralphie action figure for my mom, and it's been standing on her kitchen counter for two years now. Keep in mind my mom is nearly 70, with a little ralphie and his gun and his soap standing there while she cooks dinner for my dad every night.

it was on last night on fox.
yeah, i was dissapointed i missed it. my co-worker raves about it.

skipadoo, i will try that site @ home.

waltermcphilpadooo, i'm a sucker for claymation x-mas movies, they're great! and i haven't seen the muppets christmas carol in a long time, i'll have to see that one too!

i think they start it x-mas eve night.

i'm going out to dinnah now! woo! laterz!

smashkinadoo

yea, what smaskindoodooface said.

awesome, i can still get my "you'll shoot yer eye out' on.

"a crummy commercial? son of a bitch"

damn that movie is awesome.

flick grew up to be a porn star. true story.

i saw that on E! what a shame. :noway:

everyone, please, just watch the original claymations from the 70's - Rudolph and santa clause is coming to town
&&&&&&& THE YEAR WITHOUT A SANTA CLAUS!

ho ho ho!

"He's Mister Heat Miser, he's Mister Sun...."

YESSSSS!

don't forget the grinch. not the jim carrey crap, either.
damn, there are a lot of christmas movies. I haven't seen frosty this year either.

i haven't seen any of these movies and i have no idea what any of you are talking about.

come on over, i'll pop some popcorn.

and so they say that mayfuck's small heart grew three sizes that day.

the surprised was mentioned when the updated their status.

poop update:

i gave birth to a healthy 2lb 3 ounce baby boy. he looks just like his father.

here's a screenshot:

flick grew up to be a porn star. true story.

he was in the classic porn film called "The Wrong Snatch"

interesting side note...in "The Toy" with Richard Pryor, his character asks (during a discussion about sex and girls), "So what do you do with your....thing?" i'm guessing that he figured it out.

i wonder if this is the same surprise Billy had for us two years ago that went unannounced. goddamn him and his freakin' surprises.

man. i missed the mid afternoon potty humor. :(

Apparently watermelonclip's poop >>>>>> SP surprise

Apparently watermelonclip's poop >>>>>> SP surprise

you damn right. :smoke:

Apparently watermelonclip's poop >>>>>> SP surprise


no

SP surprise = poop;)

christmas music makes me want to punch my grandma.

Would it sound like a member of the Frogs hitting a drum?

hmmm Gossamer gots some inside info? Where'd ya get it?

Indeed...

thats banging grandma. don't give me the "we don't bang grandma" routine.

Who's to say a punch wouldn't be considered a bang? I'd say it would bang her pretty well, depending on the punch.

DOOO!! DOOOO!!

donkey punch.

I'm about to take the browns to the superbowl.

i wouldnt bet against it

I DON"T GIVE A SHEEEE-IT!

Who's to say a punch wouldn't be considered a bang? I'd say it would bang her pretty well, depending on the punch.

So would punching a crotch still be considered banging?

Where did these guys get January 1st as a reliable date?

not too many tight lipped individuals...

i think people are taking the words "first of the year" too literally.

I hate how netphoria has evolved over the past year. Threads can no longer stay on topic. It's really annoying.

:cry:

:cry:

:love:

i love you too my secret friend

staying on topic is soooo 2007


times are changing

So when these tracks are released (hopefully not on iTunes, dear god), are we supposed to be surprised? At how good they are, or how crappy?

i'll be surprised if theyre good.

...gunna walk around...with doo doo on your head...

Who said that it's reliable? It's just taken from Jimmy's post on the SP blog: "Look for these around the first of the year. Busy Bees!"

I hope the new Pumpkins appear on whatever they release next. If they want us to really accept them as full band members they would do this. B and J really need input from other voices. Jimmy seems too much like Billy's yes-man.
AND THEY'RE HAVING TWINS!
The twins are being named D'arcy and James.

it's funny how nowadays, you can skip two entire pages of a thread without missing a beat

UGGG! AROUND THE FIRST OF THE YEAR DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY = JANUARY FIRST.


I am, however, prepared to eat crow if they come out jan. 1.

around the first of the year could be christmas too

just sayin

don't freak out, now

chinese new year is feb 7.

don't freak out, now
having a bad day; i think my husband killed the hard drive in my 3 month old macbook last night :( and i have one of those crazy icepick headaches (ever heard of those? they SUCK!). sorry.

rosh hashanah is sept 30.

having a bad day; i think my husband killed the hard drive in my 3 month old macbook last night.
beat your husband for that!

i don't know if i'd go as far as to eat crow (i hear they carry many diseases!) if these songs are out for the new year.. but i'd sure be shocked!

useless chatter topic of the day:
brittney spears' 16-year-old sister is preggo

how did he kill the hard drive? swipe a magnet across it?

yes, i know exactly what you're talking about with those headaches. they are only in one spot in your head but they hurt like hell and never let up. i would recommend not staring at a computer screen, but i suppose you're at work. have you taken some aspirin?

yeah i saw that too. i like how i can skim a netphoria thread and get the the gist of a news story. and some social commentary too. mayday's pro-life banter takes up too much in the thread though, imo.

I hope the new Pumpkins appear on whatever they release next. If they want us to really accept them as full band members they would do this. B and J really need input from other voices. Jimmy seems too much like Billy's yes-man.


Maybe they're using this as a last chance to put out music without the new members, and then the next album will ink-lewd them.

That way they can "finish what they started" I guess.

nah it's not really his fault i guess, he left it on last night while he was converting some videos to burn to dvd, and forgot to plug in before he went to bed, so the battery died and now it won't boot up. I get this folder icon with a question mark inside of it, and according to the apple support forums, this usually means your drive is dead. I guess it's not that horrible since it's under warranty, but i haven't done a backup in a while, so i lost stuff. Like my video taken at the sp show :( and the song I wrote this weekend :(
*sigh*

oh, i took advil. It's not working though. What a crap day.

nah it's not really his fault i guess
This evidence clearly points to him:
...he left it on last night while he was converting some videos to burn to dvd, and [he]forgot to plug in before he went to bed
Court is adjourned.

Geez, iBooks are fragile, aren't they? This Dell laptop I have just goes into 'hibernation' mode and keeps all your programs up until you plug it back in. =/ Hopefully you can get it running again, though.

Did you happen to post that song anywhere?

well the reason i don't think it was his fault is because this doesn't usually happen just because the battery died; it had to be a problem with the hard drive itself. But the ibook i had before never gave me any trouble, and i had it for two years. I only upgraded to the macbook because i wanted a faster processor and more ram to handle all of these recording apps. :cry:

didn't post the song; it was just a little track of a riff i came up with to help me remember, not really a whole song. Maybe it's not lost...

How lame. I would be extremely sad if I lost all my data just like that. Thankfully, I have most of it on an external hard drive, so it should be safe should something happen to the CPU. Maybe an idea for the future?

your harddrive should be fine. you probably just have to reinstall the OS. boot it up in CD mode (i forget what button you press when you restart. C maybe?)

if you have a repair disk run the diagnositics check to see if it can be repaired. if not, boot it from an OS disk and re-install it.

this used to happen to me with early versions of OSX, but once it got to 10.2 or so, it stopped happening


but then again, maybe the HD is dead :(

i'm going to predict

new acoustic e.p. entitled 'American Gothic' that features 4 new songs:

* The Rose March
* Again, Again, Again (the crux)
* POX
* Sunkissed

holy frick T&T, i think you're right

zeitgeist mystery revealed the truth!

youre a god damn soothsayer

I tried booting from the install disc, but it's not doing anything. I tried resetting the pram too, still nothing. Now the disc is stuck in there too. bummer.

i usually back things up, I have probably 75% of my stuff on an external drive and several dvds, but i haven't backed up in about 3 weeks or so. Bad shannon.

and back to the topic; t&t, i think you're right.

so it's the second, looks like you don't have to eat diseased crow meat now!

Nah, one day difference doesnt count. Skipgo, you'll have to post pics to prove you stand tr00 to your words.

my area has declared a war on crows
http://wnyt.com/article/stories/S287942.shtml?cat=300

YEA! :rockon:
