Immediately making him the most likeable person to ever play with the Pumpkins.

There's a lot of "didn't know the SP guy was a cool guy" so he's definitely the NWA guy for some.

AveryLoren · 12-01-2021, 05:41 PM

A few of my cousins are heavy into wrestling only know him as a poser rich guy. Ironically the video I chose to show them was bullet. Blew their minds!

News on the new album (33 songs):

Nearly done
2 more lead vocals to finish it
Which will be done until Christmas
BV by Katie Cole and Sierra Swan (and maybe Hilary Williams) once again, recorded in January.
Out in 2022
They are recording a new album as soon as they finish this one

Kenny himself delivered this kind of attention-seeking version, auditioning for the job as their new drummer.

And that he doesn't need to sing for every single second of every song. It's ok for there to be instrumental parts!

YES!

Kenny talking about the band again

Forgotten Child · 12-06-2021, 04:29 PM

The concert he mentions

jimmy drevpile · 12-07-2021, 10:48 AM

I'm quite bored of Billy acting like there is some conspiracy to blacklist him on Instagram. Even though they are shitheads, they do at least basically explain how their platform works. Its about engagement right, and being social https://about.instagram.com/blog/ann...nstagram-works

Given Billy does not accept new follow requests, he does not allow fan interaction on his posts, or his chats, and he deleted all his previous posting history - who knows how many people he has blocked - it's relatively self explanatory, that (at least in part) he has brought the 'low engagement' on himself.

If you are on "social" media and are not actually being "social" (especially as defined by the platform) that is why you are going to have a bad time. It's not that complicated.

Also, maybe people (the special 800 he don't have muted) are just saying they don't get notifications anymore, because they are fed up of tuning into expect to hear about the music, but instead it's 10 seconds of music and 10 minutes of wrestling again.

I mean, you would want to say their is a conspiracy when something on average only about 5% of your instagram followers watch your videos and about 1% of the people that he follows in kind bother to reply... Not nice. The video where he talked about gish has 35k views though. Maybe people are just more interested in the posts about music Billy, not the other BS...

jimmy drevpile · 12-07-2021, 10:50 AM

Kenny is funny.

I didn't like him at all at the time, but in hindsight (and given the other drummers they have had) those performances don't seems quite so bad anymore. Different at least and different is good.

Cool As Ice Cream · 12-07-2021, 11:25 AM

how is kenny allowed to say all those things? isn't there some NDA to shut him up? sp camp is pissed!!!!!

Joey Goldberg · 12-07-2021, 06:50 PM

were any alternate covers/art concepts considered for recent records?

themadcaplaughs · 12-07-2021, 10:08 PM

Joey Goldberg · 12-08-2021, 11:07 AM

Cool As Ice Cream · 12-08-2021, 11:08 AM

Joey Goldberg · 12-08-2021, 12:01 PM

This is a pretty popular thing to whine about on Twitter, too, particularly among the right-leaning; "My tweets are getting fewer likes," "I'm losing tons of followers," etc. equals "I'm being silenced." Never the natural result of being less interesting, or Twitter banning the thousands of robo-accounts you paid to have follow you, or even just failing to work with the algorithm. It's high-level people at Twitter Inc. closely monitoring your account and turning the dial down on you (because your ideas are dangerous). Yes, Billy, the Zuck has taken quite an interest in your unconventional ideas and is concerned. Insta having a documented negative effect on teen girls? No problem. Facebook intentionally prioritizing the spread of far-right articles because they result in higher engagement? Sure. But William Patrick Corgan, the Truthsayer... we gotta lock this shit down. He's getting too close.

Forgotten Child · 12-08-2021, 02:26 PM

Not sure about Twitter, but Instagram does restrict your organic reach as they want you to pay to promote anything.

topleybird · 12-08-2021, 04:56 PM

Yeah, Insta's rough. I don't know how Twitter's system works, either, but Instagram's convinced Reels are the future, so if you want maximum reach (without, yeah, paying to promote), my current understanding is that you need to be posting at least one image, several Stories, and several Reels per day. All three. All day long.
