Announcing: Major Smashing Pumpkins Announcement - Coming Soon

Back in December 2010, Billy Corgan announced he was going to announce something; following further announcements, Corgan has announced another announcement about what is presumably the last announcement about the announcement;

"Major @smashingpumpkin announcement this coming Tuesday. Regards new and old SP music. Big changes…exciting news.”

Grunge Report wishes "it was that Jimmy Chamberlin was re-joining the band". Don't think it's going to  happen I'm afraid guys.

Here's my predictions: Smashing Pumpkins Billy Corgan has signed a new record deal as 'Smashing Pumpkins 3.0' - 'SP3' have abandoned the ridiculous 'teargarden release method and Billy will be releassing some unreleased SP1 music (at some point in the future).

Idiocy aside, any [new] Smashing Pumpkins music with Chamberlin playing is good news as far as I'm concerned.
