Any tips from you guys? Would Stevie really say that? :shrug:

nailatixela 05-23-2010 12:41 PM

I saw! How can it be phoney? We know Clayton set up the account for her and we know Stevie knows/knew about it. Karen could have typed it, but I'm sure Stevie knows that she just tweeted.

CADreaming 05-23-2010 12:55 PM

Well, I responded. Let's see what happens...

PS - my first "tweet" too. I said I was not going to fall into that trap. Ugh.

tilthefirefades 05-23-2010 01:42 PM

I'm sure Karen is the one who tweeted that. But nonetheless, isn't that just about as good as it gets these days?

michelej1 05-23-2010 01:51 PM

Oooh. Maybe they are warming up the twitter account to start promoting the new tour, new album, etc.

They'd be smart to. Karen could totally use it to Stevie's advantage (instead of Stevie using it to her own advantage).

Jondalar 05-23-2010 02:16 PM

you know for a woman who loves to gab and share her life and songs, you'de think that nicks would embrace twitter. I bet once she starts, she won't be able to stop.

Ooh that makes total sense. I made sure to follow her too, just incase this does happen!

GypsyBlueEyes 05-23-2010 03:36 PM

I was happy to see the tweet & I tweeted how happy it would make everyone for her to embrace twitter...but I bet a million dollars that its just Karen. :lol:

Regardless, its a good thing. The sooner she embraces social networking, the better. All kinds of celebrities have embraced it...those that don't are now at a disadvantage. It wouldn't hurt for her to use this as a way to reach out to her fans...even if she's paying Karen to do it for her. Besides, the casual fans and the new fans who are introduced to her music might not consider it isn't actually her they are tweeting to.

ButterCookie 05-23-2010 03:37 PM

Until you can tweet from a typewriter, it's Karen :lol:

SandyMac 05-23-2010 05:03 PM

I do agree that I do not think it is a fake, but the words/language used seems a very non Stevie thing to say... so it probably is Karen. However, I am hoping it does lead to more info. and connection with the fans for any upcoming album and/or tour.

Maybe Dave Stewart talked up the benefits of using twitter to reach out to fans, etc...
and she wants to give it a try.

WelshWitchPMD 05-23-2010 06:15 PM

Maybe someone should ask her how Lindsey is doing? :lol:
It's about time she started using Twitter. I agree that it's probably Karen doing the typing for her but it's still progress in the techno world for Stevie.

This is going to be interesting...

Dave Stewart probably told her "Listen Stevie, I'm sick & tired of intercepting messages for you and everyone tweeting me to ask about you and what you're doing...you need to do something about this so they will leave me alone!!!" :lol:

That, and I bet she gleaned the importance of internet social networking marketing (especially FREE marking such as Facebook and Twitter) from her time spent with Dave. Social networking sites really are the best way to get a grass roots movement started these days. Just look at the whole Betty White/SNL thing! We had a Facebook group save a 110 year old firehouse from being razed here in Charlotte. I don't think you can downplay the power or importance of social networking in the modern world... maybe Stevie's pragmatic side is realizing that.

ButterCookie 05-23-2010 06:59 PM

Now that the computers have fully damaged the children... they can be embraced *bursts into joyful song*

Totally agree! It's what we've all been saying for a long time now...I'm glad someone has finally opened her eyes to it. I would have thought that her management would have sat her down and explained to her that, even if she doesn't like it and wants to stay old school, this is the way the world works now. All the CD/Tour/Concert promotions in the world can't compete with her promoting herself through social networking.

RockALittle250 05-23-2010 07:23 PM

I have a feeling the Nicksfix is going to be updated soon, and it will say something along the lines of "Stevie is finally using her twitter account! Click here to follow her for up-to-the-minute information on what she's been doing", and then, we will never hear from her again on twitter.

It has to be Karen updating it, but regardless, it's someone from Stevie's camp, and it is very timely considering all the info about this tour and album that's coming out, mostly via Dave, who has half the followers of Stevie by-the-way. I just hope it doesn't become like the Nicksfix where her management has to approve everything that is posted and its a month's span between tweets.

I just had another thought, what if it's John Kinney!?

I completely agree.... and with the lack of promotion the record companies, or the limited amounts they do because of resources, there's something to be said for doing and building it yourself.

The NicksFix posted a few months back stating that this account doesn't belong to Stevie...

I think it had to do with WB. Maybe they didn't want her tweeting, but if she is out of her contract now (maybe her contract ended a year after the release of soundstage, which would make a lot of sense since there have been a lot of strange things going on with stevie as of late) she is free to do whatever the hell she wants!

Let's hope that she'll post something interesting..

MacAttack 05-24-2010 02:18 PM

RealStevieNicks has just sent out two Tweets.
 
Following two tweets from the time of the Unleashed tour. Can anyone confirm if @RealStevieNicks is actually her? She writes how you would expect.

If it really is her, gotta believe she's doing ti (or been told to do it) re: the new album.
