Meat Loaf on Twitter - Page 2

MeatGrl1 · 30 May 2009, 02:13

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

Twitter sucks, but it is THEE thing at the moment

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

MeatGrl1 · 30 May 2009, 02:20

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

!!

Pudding · 30 May 2009, 02:24

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.

Ooh I found Cesar Millan

!!!

He's awesome !

**allrevvedup** · 30 May 2009, 02:35

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?

MeatGrl1 · 30 May 2009, 02:39

Amen to that

!!

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.

It's as genuine as we're gonna get and I'm interested to find out what's gonna be said.

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.

Lolololol.

**allrevvedup** · 30 May 2009, 02:58

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.

Pudding · 30 May 2009, 03:06

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.

WhenItComes2LovingU · 30 May 2009, 04:15

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?

Remco · 30 May 2009, 13:45

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

Pudding · 30 May 2009, 13:59

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

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.)

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

), though he has not visited since August last year as he likes to keep track of things being said while touring.
