Welcome to FD. I had dissapeared for a while and now I'm back. Anyway, I think the people who would produce the most poetic, interesting or creative tweets are the very people least likely to sign up on Twitter. Just my thoughts based on the talented people I know and how they respond to such requests. I would love tour updates and studio insights from the boys.

And two months later, the world is stunned as the guitarist walks leaving the band without "the talented one", but with the world hopeful for his solo albums.

And I'm sorry I didn't welcome you to the forum befoe MrsBateman, but twitter is one of those words that makes me zone out so I didn't read this thread?

Welcome to the forum! Great thread!

And I think that myspace page and their site is all we'd need from the band and the internet.
It still wouldn't be as good as us on here?

This is going to sound really stupid but how do you receive the tweets, are they like text messages that come in on a cell phone or do you have to log in to an account like email? :/

You can get Twitter on your phone, but the easiest way is to sign up for an account and check the site. You search for people and click a button that says "follow." That means that when you log in, their tweets just appear one after the other on the home page. People can also choose to follow you (but if you're like me, you'll block a lot of them because they're cam-whores or bizarre online business people).

Thanks for the info mrsmanics!

My tweets would be a mix of the mundane and downright stupid.....but probably not as stupid as this: http://twitter.com/PEACHES_G
