pottedplant Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Ok gang, let's start a Robert Plant twitter thread. We can all bring over tweets. ProPlant I am glad you are at peace with it all. Twitter is a useful tool for musicians, etc. as their people can block the morons when then get too moronic and Tweet updates, photos, music for the real fans like us. Plus we can quickly communicate with Robert (or whomever is speaking for him). With such a small format, I personally think Robert will get involved with it from time to time. Robert being ROBERT-EGO probably would not let it go. What a treat it will be for us, to hear from the man himself.Cookie, will you be the leader of this? CLW, darlin' you can twitter to your heart's content with Robert now. We can all follow @RobertPlant and therefore, each other at the same time. We can trade handles later.

LivingLovingHeartbreaker Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 This is all excitement to me. I use Twitter often. I am having fun on @LedZepNews, Cookie. I asked a tame question "When is your new album coming out?" I think they may answer this one. The questions about lemons, jeans, etc. I mean really. The man is going to be 65 years old this month. Maybe these morons don't know that. Well, there is always the "Hot Pics of Robert Thread." I go to HPOR quite often, what are you saying? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProPlant Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Yeah, it's an unprofessional and embarrassing thing to do, but I doubt it's from a lack of responses. If they were lacking decent ones then any average social media agency would make some up. You can tell from the graphics used and the verification tick mark that Robert's Twitter is being run by an agency with either in-house designers or they've sub-contracted the elements out. The verification process also needs to be expertly managed. We're talking several thousand at least for the profile establishment and posts, not a trivial spend. They want to spread the news themselves. Leaving it to someone like me is dangerous because I may not convey the exact message that they want. I doubt we'll get anything interesting from this. It's probably not the point. It's a fun distraction to build up fan interaction and establish a loyal following. That gets the account ready to share news in the future.

After looking at the new website design for robertplant.com it would appear you are right about him getting a new team hired to revamp things.

Cookie0024 Posted August 8, 2013 Author Share Posted August 8, 2013 Wow, yeah, that's one expensive website. Looks like his label has hired Big Hassle to do his PR, they're a good firm (but not cheap). This is definitely part of the marketing budget for an album rather than simply revamping Robert's online presence. Also, the launch of the new website could be responsible for the delay in the Twitter questions. They probably wanted to get everything ready for launch. There's still a few bugs on the site, so I'm guessing they needed an extra day to get it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toutpleindamour Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 LOL! Just when some were complaining about too many lemons in the fans' questions, the Man himself gives us lemons aplenty! Come on guys, it's just good fun. In fact I would love to see him reply with a positive answer to a moronic teenager proposing her "services"... Even if he's 64 years-old, it's Robert f****** Plant after all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toutpleindamour Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Maybe at his age he got very very slow at "Rolling"? Maybe trying to find the first key he wants to strike on the keyboard... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
