His nickname was actually Cankles Kenneth at one point because of the cheap K-Mart chairs but when people who called him that started to mysteriously disappear the nickname sort of faded away…
That reminds of when Lester Bangs convinced me to buy a copy of Metal Machine Music. Still have the album. Never listened to all of any of the four sides.
“Metal Machine Music features no songs or recognizably structured compositions, eschewing melody and rhythm for modulated feedback and noise music guitar effects, mixed at varying speeds by Reed. Also in 1975, RCA released a Quadrophonic version of the Metal Machine Music recording that was produced by playing it back both forward and backward, and by flipping the tape over.
“While the album sold 100,000 copies on release, it quickly became the most returned album in RCA’s history…”
Edgar J. Hoover:
“It was backassward masking at its finest and we defeated those Anti American bastards in court through confidential informants like the group The Kingsmen of LouieLouie fame.”
What’s the frequency, Kenneth?
That’s Kenneth in the chair. He looks bored listening to me.
And before you ask, no, IMAO won’t spring for a new computer.
He got that Main Frame because of government subsidies but hey, it got his picture in the Smithsonian..just feet from the Hope Diamond.💎
I’ll bet his chair has those plastic black castors that break after two weeks.
Poor Kenny.

This made me curious to look it up in Wikipedia:

Ah, so the FBI infiltration is finally complete…
