Twitter - must follows?

This forum is for talking about non-music-related stuff that the DBT fanbase might be interested in. This is not the place for inside jokes and BS. Take that crap to some other board.

Twitter - must follows?

Post by 'Scratch »

After being dragged into it kicking and screaming I started using Twitter for work. Then I opened a separate account which I figured I'd use purely for entertainment purposes - following bands and personalities of interest. You know, something to read on my Blackberry when I'm stuck waiting for my kid at dance class, waiting for Chinese food, etc.

So aside from the prolific Jason, DBT, et al....are there any other entertaining must follows that you'd recommend?

Good stuff! And Rob Delaney has me pissing my pants. Here's some of his music tweets from his website.

I just took a HUGE “Eagles Greatest Hits.”

I love the album Abbey Road so much I think I’m going to name my first daughter “Road.”

Rap-rock is the soundtrack to date-rape.

What’s the best music to finger to? INXS, right?

I always buy the insurance when I rent a car so that if the Eagles come on the radio I can drive into a river.

The only sound worse than hearing your child scream in pain is the Counting Crows’ cover of “Big Yellow Taxi.”

I believe in God because I like to think that Counting Crows will one day suffer Old Testament style punishment.

I love a good musical. I think that’s why I hate “Glee.”

Bass is the bridge between rhythm & melody. It also makes people want to fuck.

Look, I know it’s hacky to rip on the Black Eyed Peas, so I’ll just say they’re the opposite of music & less than shit.

By the time you recognize the opening drums from “Superstition” on my spacious dance floor, you’re already pregnant.

“Don’t call me daughter…” “Roger that, we’ll just keep calling you ‘Eddie, Master Lyricist.’”

If the inventor of the hi-hat didn’t get the Nobel Peace Prize, then that prize doesn’t mean shit.

If you’re bringing a guitar to whip out & play at a party, make sure to pre-lube it so I can get it up your asshole nice n’ easy.

Might open another Twitter account solely to talk about Slayer drummer Dave Lombardo.

That weird synth-guitar solo in “Owner of a Lonely Heart” is my favorite thing to meow.

It’s cool that Don Henley let his 8yr old nephew write the lyrics to “Hotel California” after taking a foul ball to the head.

If I ever had to suck another guy’s dick, I’d probably listen to the guitar solo in “November Rain” to get psyched up.

I just fucking expressed myself on the dance floor.

12 string guitars only have 6 extra strings, but they’re 85 TIMES as likely to be used in a song about wizards.

Rob Delaney is easily the funniest person on Twitter. Sadly, I don't really know anything about him outside of Twitter. I guess he is a stand-up? I should seek out more material from him.
