Meat Loaf on Twitter
 

I can't read the whole journal entry on the other site but it does give you a link to the REALMEATLOAF twitter page. This is all I can read

Follow Meat Loaf on his official Twitter page link text

http://twitter.com/RealMeatLoaf

It says something is happening in 4 days and counting.

Chris

Wow, that is very exiting! Maybe a new tour coming up...well, its okay to dream, right? :-)

or maybe something about the album but I don't know how to twitter, just read the stuff. I tried to send a message but couldn't. I'm GUESSING this is the new site???? Read the last twitter message...

Hope this is the real deal and not some deluded fan like the one on facebook. Becoming a fan of a fan is just so ridiculous.

Meat is the only one who can post in the Journal on the other site...don't know who's running the twitter thing but it's not a fan faking to be him like on facebook. I'm trying to get the whole message from his Journal to see what it says

I wonder which sack o'shite sad tw@t is pretending to be Meat Loaf this week? :roll:

Pud :twisted:

sorry but my account ran out months ago... still waiting on the "new" site to appear

[confused] ... how do you know the Twitter thing is not some deluded twit(ter)? Given the number of people who think it's a laugh to create fake accounts, the latter is more likely unless you know better.

Dave

Meat is the only one who has access to the journal...nobody can write in it but him...you can't even reply to it and it's also on the home page

Sorry, still don't get it. I think you're saying that the twitter message is the same as, or a condensed version, of whatever is in this journal thing. So, what's stopping someone who can read the journal from creating a twitter account and just copying the text over?

btw I wonder why it's "RealMeatLoaf" when "MeatLoaf" is free?

Dave

whats the point in that?? no one else could read it :D

meanwhile... i totally agree... 4 days time.. something might happen

Gullible is somewhere in the dictionary between Dumb :tard: and Retard :retard:

OK, now I see, the .net page LINKS to the twitter page.

Wish someone could have explained that simple thing earlier ...

Dave

Yeah, links to the official website would be useful. I'll take the :tard: & :retard: smilies back and save them for a rainy day :))

Pud :twisted:

It's not often long between showers ... ;-)

Maybe it was because everyone else knew it was that simple, so they didnt think anyone couldn´t understand it ;-)

From how it's written "Follow Meat Loaf" I'd say it's been written by his management company and isn't a journal entry. I'd say they're jumping on the twitter bandwagon because I think .net's down to a handful of members and anything they put on there just wont reach enough people. It's as genuine as we're gonna get and I'm interested to find out what's gonna be said.

LOL.

No. The announcement that Meat has a twitter page is posted on the front Home page of his official site, and gives the link to the page which basically says there are lots of "surprises coming up for my fans. Stay tuned!", so I think it's most certainly Meat on the twitter page and not someone pretending to be him.

As to a tour .. he's already said that we should dust off our show shoes in readiness for a tour in 2010 :)

MeatLoaf (http://twitter.com/meatloaf) is not free/available... Its a girl by name Holly DeVooght from Michigan who uses that Twitter-ID...

It seems like shes a musician (http://www.myspace.com/12458504), but I dont know why shes using MeatLoaf as her Twitter-ID/name...

Yes, I know, as I posted a few posts above. Up to that point no-one had mentioned there being a link from .net, a fact which of course nails any doubt about the authenticity. Some of us never go to .net on account of it never having anything worthwhile to read, you see.

Dave

hmmm, must have mis-typed it earlier when I checked.

Understanding it is easy; knowing it is the problem given the tiny number of people who bother with .net these days.

True!

Very true

But then it begs the question if he has never been on myspace or facebook why the the feck would he opt to go on twitter when it's possibly the worst of the three for a bad rep for having fakers on there ? OK there are the odd one or two genuine on there but unless Meat says if he is or he isn't then it is very unlikely and debateable I would of thought :shrug:.

Twitter sucks, but it is THEE thing at the moment :roll:

Maybe Meat has random thoughts he just wants to share in not very long sentences, rather than a long paragraph :shrug:

Possibly but personally I can't see him on that !!

Twitter is crap, I only have an account for one soul reason but if it wasn't for that I wouldn't bother, I can do that on facebook and have alot more fun :lol: !!

Well it wasn't Meat Loaf doing myspace so maybe it won't be him twittering, but it might. I can see the ease of twittering over facebook or myspace, it's more simple.

Couldn't disagree more actually...
Twitter is a HUGE trend throughout THE WORLD. There are A LOT of genuine famous people on there (Check out http://www.followfamous.com/) . I think it is a logical choice for Meat Loaf. I'm sure when Michael Ball gets round to Twitter you will follow him and forget about MySpace and Facebook for a second. ;-)

Facebook and MySpace contain a lot of unnecessary crap when you think about it. If you just quickly want to know what someone is up to Twitter is the best and that's why it is successful. It's rather amatuerish layout/usability (which thankfully is getting better now) is something both MySpace and Facebook had in their early days too.

I'd be interested to know what Meat would Twitter when he is on tour / in the studio. His site is getting a bit dated in my opinion so it is good he is following the new internet trend. Steinman should Twitter too, looks like his blog is dead anyway.

LMAO :lmao:

Ooh I found Cesar Millan :cool: !!!

He's awesome !

i've come to the conclusion that i don't care and it'll be a big waste of time...i wouldn't get too excited but that's just me..meat barely has time to update his website, tell me how in hell is he going to update twitter when it requires at least once a day activity to be popular?

Amen to that :lol: !!

I am afraid you are probably going to be proven to be correct on this. However Twitter is indeed easy to update. Just a sentence a day would be better than nothing. If he can't be bothered then that is fair enough. I just don't think he should be charging people to access a website that hardly gets updated and only has as benefit presales. There are a lot of people who cannot go to concerts but would still like to stay informed.

That's exactly what I was thinking. I'm very interested too :-)

For a start Meat doesn't update his website, someone else does. You don't need to post once a day to be popular and even if you did, I'm sure if Meat posted that he just took a big shit or something else trivial, it would still have people salivating in the fact that Meat twittered about something.


Wanna bet?

Lolololol. :D:D

yeah but that's exactly it pud, it's total BS, when you have "demi and ashton", twitter darlings, threatening to walk away because of possible changes to twitter then it must mean something is up cause they would post about taking a dump and admiring it.


i just don't see meat doing it (him or his management), he doesn't acknowledge myspace, barely acknowledges his own website, gets angry when posting here and stays under the radar most of the time.

Since it's official on dotty.net I guess we'll have to wait and see how it pans out. One things for certain though at least we know to some degree that Meat Loaf is involved in Twitter and not that sack o'shite asshole pretending to be him on Facebook the other week.

Initially I was angry when I found out about the "sack o' shite" as you put it on Facebook, but this girl evidently was reading things, as it said on the Facebook Page that it was nothing but a fan effort and my friend Shawn says she put out announcements to that effect after someone brought the posts on the Rockman to her attention.

What has this got to do with Meat Loaf on twitter? Has someone got a guilty conscience?

Is it possible that in a few day's the new .net website will be launched...? That might be the big surprise...

Getting something for your $40 would be an even bigger surprise.

:lmao: Thank you.

I prefer useful info from time to time or when there's something important going on to "just a sentence a day".

At least it seems to provide the opportunity to read some news without having to pay $40. (I hope so.)

Meat loaf is a member of mlukfc and posts?!? :shock:

Where the hell have you been? He's FireBall.

Why don't you bother to check when that user registered and when Meat Loaf left his last posting here?

Yes Meat Loaf is a member here as Fire Ball (two words like his name ;), not to sound picky but it annoys me :lol:), though he has not visited since August last year as he likes to keep track of things being said while touring.

Fireball :raspberry:

Meatloaf :raspberry:

:kickass::hand::keke::nuts: !!

Can somebody PLEASE explain to me how the heck I went to Twitter to see what it is and as soon as I've registered I am already following ML???

Because you clicked the 'Follow' button... :lol:

Twitter is pants. :D

Ermmm...thank you for that...although the only reason I am asking is that I haven't, in fact, clicked on ANY buttons...I just signed up and he was there waiting for me on my homepage or whatever the heck it's called...

For a fact...lol...

I just peed my Twitter

Did you join twitter from the Meatloaf page?, if so it might have automatically assumed you're joining it to stalk, I mean follow, I mean be interested in meatloaf :))

Pud :twisted:

meat loaf twitter
 

remember when meat loaf was on this moring promoting bat 3 he said that him and jim were working on a project togeather and i recon it could be news of bat out of hell the musical ??????? who knows

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SjhSvJMGOhk

Definitely not from Meat's page cause I put address into the browser and that's how I wound up on Twitter...

Dunno...curious, of course, but of no consequence...whatever somebody there is twittering one can read here...

My inner stalker woke up to quite a few like Kevin Smith and Borat...but I can't master that particular drive that makes a stalker a true professional...lol...so people are promptly "followed" and their "twitters" remain promptly unread...lol

but it goes to the same page its him , we should all be at our comps , 2 moro thats if your a real meat loaf of course :?

ONCE AGAIN ITS NEVER EASY WHEN IT COMES TO MEAT AND WEBSITES, GOD KNOWS WHAT IS HAPPNING????

There's a few on here that could give you tips if you want...LOL

Pud :twisted:

Nah...I am just not interested...I guess I am more interested in my own life...lol...

But it's not him updating is it? So far, the Twitter updates have been the same ones good old faithful RSS-bot delivers here. I'm presuming much in the same way my local council's website manages to Twitter selected newsfeeds to Twitter, RSS-bot is doing the same for .net? Though having said that, it would indeed be (I struggled to find suitable adjective for use here) interesting if the man himself posted his own Twitter, in particular during tours and recordings etc..

Blondes think alike... ;-)

This is typical on Twitter.

Actually, there are way more "real" celebrities doing their own Tweets on Twitter than I can find actually doing either facebook or myspace on their own. Usually the FB or MS is done by a management company.

I am at a loss as to why it is important whether it's actual celebrities post or "their people"...I mean...if posts/statuses are entertaining, funny and/or informative...what is the difference who typed the damn thing?

There's a surprise :))

Of course it's important as it's the celebrities actual thoughts rather than the thoughts done on the celebrities behalf.

For example. If you went to a restaurant and thought it sucked you'd want to tell people not to go there because it sucked, you wouldn't want someone to write on your behalf saying you had an enjoyable evening, because that wouldn't be your thoughts and it wouldn't be true.

If it is Meat posting his thoughts then great, I might pop over there now and again, if it's some managed nonsense then I won't as it'll suck.

Pud :twisted:

Not Meat. The twitter account has been updated with ...

Hello from Meat. Will be uploading video later this afternoon with a message from him-roxanne personal asst to meat loaf

Those are either PR people or secretaries or whatever posting...and they would not express opinion contrary to the celebrity unless celebrity doesn't want their opinion to be known in any event...very often those same PR people, managers, etc...are much better educated, much funnier and much much everything than celebrity himself/herself...but that's just my personal opinion...never been particularly star struck...

Well, I can tell you one thing for sure...Paula Abdul is writing her own thing...no PR person of any kind will write this kind of nonsense...and if anybody asks me why I am following Paula Abdul...don't...it's a mystery to me...

Well given the excitement I hope this video is a good thing...what if it's 'Bat III was fab, you lot drive me mental, i'm starting a peaceful retirement goodnight!" ?!

I was thinking the same thing, Lucy, but then again...his first post said it would be surprises for his fans...it would of course be a surprise, but I interpret it as a good thing :-)

i would then know how he feels:D

To be fair that would be a bloody huge surprise! :lol:

Well the middle one is a cert, and the last one will happen eventually! As for the first, 2 outta 3 ....

we will see what happens tho, if anyone finds out please let me know its gona happen when im at work 2moz lol

"jimmy's been busy writing me a bunch a new songs, and we're going in the studio to lay down the....."

nah... not gonna happen this time lol
