Hey there my fine-feathered theatre loving friends, I am here to share the news that I am in attendance at the BroadwayCon convention which is being held at both The Manhattan Center and the New Yorker Hotel for the next few days. It’s their return to IRL events since the pandemic and one of the conditions is that you must be masked the entire time that you are inside but that’s not what I am here to share with you. I’m here to let you know that the Official Instagram for the Piercing Ken website will be taken over for the next few days as I share some of the sights and scenes with our audience on this social media platform. As you might already know if you are following the PiercingMetal Instagram, I love to share images from conventions like this because of the interesting cosplayers and vendors that I meet. Generally speaking, the attendees of the BroadwayCon get all decked out in Theatrical Cosplay. With so many current and past productions of legend to choose from its a really good time to see the hard work and skill manifest itself right before your eyes. Before I continue a little more I am going to ask that you click HERE as that will open up a new browser tag with any of the content that’s been dedicated to this years BroadwayCon. In addition to the social media posting like this I will be doing some exhibitor chats and taking lots of other photos as I can get them. The first image is down below and you should easily be able to scroll through them from there. I only ask that you help the visuals along by clicking the heart and maybe even commenting in if you like what you see. I’ve always tried to comment back or give a like to the submissions.

Greetings my readers of “The Chronicles”, I wanted to take a moment out of the busy day to let you know that this Piercing Ken website has been using the Instagram photo-sharing network for ten full years now. Now it would normally be down below where I shared the photo from the anniversary date but truth be told I have been so busy with work and trying to squeeze in adventures when its possible to do so that I had to reflect back a month ago where you see me all official as the COVID Safety Manager for the “Tina – The Tina Turner Musical” on Broadway. It’s interesting and challenging work for sure and I hope you like seeing me all official-like.

PiercingMetal’s Tumblr Achieves “4000 Posts”

Leave a comment

Hey there readers of “The Chronicles”, I’m pausing the regularly scheduled postings to once again laud an accomplishment that was achieved by one of our most used social networks. I’m talking about none other than the Official Tumblr of PiercingMetal.com which has achieved some 4,000 posts as of yesterday. Pretty cool right? I think so. More about this after the graphic.

Piercing Ken Thoughts: Whew! So many posts right? I’d like to think so as I am a bit of a numbers guy and while the use of Tumblr is mostly as a feed to the content over on PIercingMetal.com and sometimes to the stuff that I am posting here on “The Chronicles”; the achievement of 4K posts show we have never given up on using it. Last summer I had pointed out that Tumblr was purchased by the folks over at Automattic and they also own WordPress so they might end up doing something bigger with it. You can learn more about that happening by clicking HERE. The bottom line is that I will continue to keep on sharing my posts over on Tumblr and our 11th year of usage is around the corner at this point. Despite the pandemic, I’ve tried to keep myself posting busy and while some of my fellow website scribes are sitting around idle, I am closing in on having made something like “500” posts between the two websites at the time that you are reading this update. I even recently launched a Blogspot to help me learn more of their backend workings for future technical assistance use. That Blogger account is also a “feed” of sorts between both of my websites but it doesn’t look at nice as Tumblr does. Check that our by clicking HERE and maybe even follow if you have a Google account. Maybe I will change this around too but right now I’ve other things to focus on. That’s all I have for this announcement or update or whatever. I hope this finds you all staying safe and following your local regions guidelines to be safe during this viral pandemic. See you again soon.

Update 10/1/2020: Since the time of this announcement, the PiercingMetal Tumblr has been rebranded as the Ken Pierce Media Tumblr and all links now reflect this change. This rebranding makes it all the more comprehensive and entertaining going forward.

BroadwayCon 2020: A Latergram Takeover Of The Piercing Ken Instagram

Leave a comment

Back in January, I was in attendance for the always fun BroadwayCon which I’ve described as being akin to a theatre-centric comic convention. It was held at the New York Hilton Midtown and it was a whole lot of theatrical everything to enjoy. As usual I posted some news and some highlights and a lot of photos were taken to be added to our feed here on The Gram but having fallen behind on everything, the plan for February or March fell off quite a bit and then, well…you know what happened in March. Since the scourge known as COVID-19 has taken over the world, I’ve been keeping myself as busy as possible indoors and you all should be doing the same. This is why I am announcing a Latergram Takeover of the Official Instagram of the Piercing Ken site. It’s mostly the fun cosplayers that I encountered along with a few other fun images so I’m pretty sure that you’ll like it. If you’d like to see other BroadwayCon stories on the website you can click HERE as that will open up a new browser tab with any of the content that’s been dedicated to this past years BroadwayCon. My first photo is down below and remember that the best way to help an Instagram profile is to like the images and maybe even comment in if you have something on topic to add to the mix.

“The Chronicles” of Piercing Ken Celebrates 5th Anniversary on Instagram

Leave a comment

Hey there my friends, so I am just taking a quick moment out of your day to let you know that “The Chronicles of Piercing Ken” website has been using the Instagram photo-sharing social media platform for five years. Five years!!!! I’m rather shocked about it since I don’t always take to some of these networks since they aren’t always helpful to the brand. However, since “The Chronicles” became more of a professional voice back in 2016, I have to say that this has been helping. The Piercing Ken profile has done some awareness to the site stuff based on what I’ve been posting and I am okay with that. Now since I didn’t have a photo from the actual anniversary day posted I went back a few days and share this absolutely vintage photograph of me. I think I am about 1.5 years old here so let me have it.
