Timothy on Twitter

[Koala]

Cool, nice to hear from Timothy again!

[TimothyBFan]

I think I just found me a nickname for Timothy.... do you think he'd mind if I call him "sweet danish"? Yum!!! :hilarious: Strawberry danish or cheese danish or....:nahnah:

[Victim of Love]

CHEESE Danish???:rofl::rofl:

That's TOO funny. I can't think of one 'cheesy' thing about him!

[Koala]

New tweet from Timothy:


A cold & damp gig in Sweden (but a good one) .. Thanks to all. Time for Germany ... All is well

[sodascouts]

So it was raining too? Poor guys! But they keep on truckin'! ;)

[Annabel]

I think I saw in one review that it was very heavy rain at one point. Maybe it's getting them trained for the UK gig. :hilarious:

Or another trip to New Zealand! :hilarious:

So good to hear these wee updates along the way. Thanks Timothy!

New tweet from Tim:

Flying off to England today to do the last show (for now). Met the Prince & soon to be Princess of Monaco last night. Great tour ... Thanks

[TimothyBFan]

Love the "(for now)" part. That's hopeful!!!

[luvthelighthouse]

Love the "(for now)" part. That's hopeful!!!

I love that the exciting part of his tweet was the "for now"... not that he got to meet the Prince! :hilarious:

I was just wondering while looking at the pics from Monaco if the Prince & his bride to be were at the show! They have been in the news lately because of the upcoming wedding. lol

New Tweet from Timothy a bit earlier today:

Quote:
Home now ... Thanks again for a great summer tour. Will take some time off for my other life ... Cheers

I certainly hope when he says "other life" he means catching his breath and doing some more Expando shows...although I understand if he wants to spend some time being 'just plain folk'!

[Koala]

Thanks!
It's always great to read his tweets!

[Ive always been a dreamer]

Thanks for posting that, VOL. I really look forward to Timothy tweets too!

[Koala]

A new tweet from Tim 1 hour ago:


So there's no confusion, these will be solo shows. Check out locations on TBS site. Bringing the Expando band again. We'll have some fun.

[carol7lynn]

I know isn't it great-Timmie's got his twitter back! He also posted a tweet this past Friday! Here it is!

Hey ... I'm back. Time to do some shows again. Good for the spirit, you know. Looking forward to playing some music with my friends again.

He can leave the back-up singers at home-wouldn't miss them much.

Great to hear from him again! :)

[Victim of Love]

New Tweet lastnight!

[Koala]

Here it is:


Happy Thanksgiving to all. The day after, Flying solo: Phoenix first. Cheers

[Freypower]

Here it is:

Thanks Koala. It's helpful for those of us who don't use Twitter.

[sodascouts]

Nice of Timothy to give us a tweet! ;)

[TimothyBFan]

New Tweet about 1 minute ago (text alert):


TimothyBSchmit1 (https://twitter.com/#%21/TimothyBSchmit1) Timothy B. Schmit



Oh yeh, Twitter.Sorry for not reporting. Solo shows going so good.Very much enjoying it.Writing from Bend, OR. Long travel today. Off to WA.

[timfan]

Glad Tim tweeted and thanks Willie for being so on the ball! :grin:

[sodascouts]

I love how Timothy utilizes social networking. He's got it goin' on!

[Koala]

Its always nice to hear from Timothy!

[TimothyBFan]

New tweet today:

TimothyBSchmit1 (https://twitter.com/#%21/TimothyBSchmit1) Timothy B. Schmit



Thanks to everyone who attended my solo show(s). I enjoyed myself completely.My heartfelt thanks to band and crew: You are the best!

[Brooke]

Could someone "tweet" (don't know what you call it! lol) back for me and tell him we need him to come out to the midwest ,please, before he quits!

[Victim of Love]

Before I jump over there, could you be a bit more specific? I would help if I could tell him where to find you!

[Brooke]

I could be found in St. Louis, Kansas City, or Columbia in Missouri or Springfield, Bloomington, or Peoria in Illinois. Or many other smaller towns!

[Freypower]

This is going to sound stupid, but can 'ordinary' people reply to Tim's tweets? I know precisely nothing about it.

[Victim of Love]

Anyone can subscribe to Twitter

[Freypower]

I know that, but if you 'replied' to one of Tim's tweets I would have thought you would not get a response.

[TimothyBFan]

FP--You're basically right. Anyone can respond to a tweet but chances are great you aren't going to get a response. But, hey, if you want to try it and it makes you feel like one of the "cool kids", then by all means, do it. :wink:

[Victim of Love]

On Timothy's Twitter page today. And so it begins....


In Heathrow with Joe W .. On our way to Capetown ... The party's just starting. Hope to see some new fans on our visit. Joe says hi









11:26 AM - 28 Mar 12via web

[sodascouts]

Ooh, a new Timothy tweet! Excellent!

He's with Joe - I wonder if they're all traveling together? Probably. I'd love to be on that plane!

This is exciting! I can't wait to hear about these shows!

[Koala]

Cool! Love to read Tims tweets!

[Victim of Love]

Good question, SS. I've often wondered if they all travel together on the long trip segments (i.e. LA to London, London to Johannesburg/Capetown) or if they take a couple different flights. Large corporations will usually forbid all of their executives from flying on the same plane in the event there would be (Heaven forbid) a crash ... they don't want to lose all of their executive staff. Since Timothy only mentioned Joe in his Tweet, leads me to wonder if Glenn and Don were on a different flight. Obviously, once they reach their first destination it would make sense to travel together between cities within the country.

If we put that principle in place, Don should be on one flight and Glenn on another!

[Topkat]

Don't they fly on a private jet? I thought that was how they traveled?
Bands do not separate & go on different planes in case one goes down.....

[Victim of Love]

I was just wondering 'out loud' since Timothy only mentioned Joe. It's just a theory.

[zeldabjr]

OMG, you're all giving me a massive gut ache with this talk.

[Topkat]

Well, Joe twittered that they are in Capetown, so they are OK!!:thumbsup:

[zeldabjr]

You're right.:)

[Brooke]

I didn't figure that they traveled together. I think they set a time and place to meet when they get there and everyone travels on their own time. Especially if any of their families are going. :shrug:

[Victim of Love]

There are a few examples that would support the idea of travelling separate....Jim Croce, Rick Nelson and The Stone Canyon Band, Reba, and even a few more recent (in the last five years). Guess it doesn't really matter and whatever they do is their personal choice/decision. What's important is that 'the big machine' has greased its wheels and is in motion once again!

[Topkat]

Well this is only a few dates in SA, so I would think they could get there on their own time, but when they are doing a big tour, I think they have a private jet & they go together from one place to the next, at least that is how it used to be done. Do you think they would fly commercial airlines on separate flights? Maybe overseas, but in the US, don't think so.

Just speculation, but I think once the tour gets rolling, they fly together in a chartered plane. It's just easier that way. I remember in Europe there was a photo of them all getting off a small plane. I agree that for the long hauls to places like South Africa, they probably don't feel a need to all travel together, but once they're there it only makes sense.

Joe said in some interview not too long ago, when asked if they fly on the same plane, that they did fly together. He may have been talking about the scenario that Soda mentioned above, when they charter a plane. Sorry, I don't remember where I heard the interview.

[Topkat]

I would think it's much safer to be on a private plane. I mean, then you don't have to worry about any crazy passengers freaking out!! Of course if the pilot or one of the Eagles freak out, well....that's always possible too. As we've seen lately anything can happen...Just remember that flying is safer than riding in a car.
I keep telling myself that every time I get on a plane,..then I take a pill, & close my eyes, during take-off! LOL

[Victim of Love]

Latest update....


Beautiful here in Cape Town. Am here early to combat jet lag. Doing well and should be good by concert time. Stay tuned for more TBS events.

4:01 AM - 31 Mar 12via web ·


P.S. Joe has been Tweeting as well.

[timfan]

Great! Thanks VOL for spotting the tweets!

ETA: I like the mention of possible TBS dates to come.... :)

very exciting and love the tweets!:drool::heart:

[Topkat]

Glad to see that Timothy is tweeting!! I never seem to see them.
Thanks for posting...And glad to hear there may be some TBS dates coming up

[TimothyBFan]

TK---you can get them sent directly to your cell which is what I do. That way I never miss a Timothy Tweet!!!!

[Victim of Love]

You can also get them forwarded to your Facebook page if you us FB.

[StephUK]

Good to hear they've made it to Cape Town safely. I assumed they chartered a plane for long haul: maybe they were all at the airport in London but only Joe was actually sitting with Timothy when he Twittered.

When they charter a plane their manager, security and tour band all travel with them don't they?

I hope my darling Will has arrived there safely too (I say a special prayer for him wheneverI know he's travelling).:pray:

So, it's all systems go now for 'Hello Cape Town, we are the Eagles....'

[Topkat]

How do you have tweets sent to your cell phone and FB? I use Twitter, but don't really go nuts with it!

[Victim of Love]

In the settings for your Twitter account, you can add a mobile number for notifications. There is also an option to connect it to you Facebook account.

[Topkat]

Thanks VOL...I'm going to do that , so I don't miss any tweets from TBS!!:)

[TimothyBFan]

New Tweet:

Just finished the Sun City show. All is good. Went to a wild life preserve close by on a day off...What a treat. Off to Jo-burg tomorrow.

[VAisForEagleLovers]

New Tweet:


Thanks!

[zeldabjr]

New Tweet:

I actually figured out how to get the tweets on my phone...amazing since I'm so bad with this stuff...I'm glad everything is going well...I'm kind of surprised to hear from him right after a show. Love it.!

[EaglesKiwi]

I'm really liking the way Tim is using Twitter - he's doing a great job of connecting with fans without overusing it.

[zeldabjr]

woke up and found this...


Timothy B. Schmit ‏ @TimothyBSchmit1
WOW! An incredible audience here in Johannesburg. Thanks to all who attended. Great adventures out here. Next: Dubai.
:heart:

[timfan]

Cool, sounds like Timothy's enjoying his time in South Africa. Thanks Zelda!

[sodascouts]

Good to hear!

[Brooke]

Great! It's great that Timothy does this! I wish the others would be so personal with their fans, meaning Don and Glenn. I know Joe does some.

[TimothyBFan]

Another new tweet:

Just about ready to get on the plane to Dubai. All good... The adventure continues...

[timfan]

Love how much he posts from the road.... just wish it continued when he got home!! ( LOL I know: wishful thinking, but a gal can dream!! ) :thumbsup:

[Victim of Love]

I suppose it's too much to hope for a NEW interview with one or more of the guys on www.eaglesdubai.com (http://www.eaglesdubai.com). Think I'll err on the side of caution and keep the website up and running today!

[zeldabjr]

new tweet from Timothy B...


Another great crowd in Dubai,even though a sand storm (my first) threatened to intervene for most of the day.Home now.Jet lag: night or day?

Amen to that! They'll probably sleep for a week!

[TimothyBFan]

New tweet:

A few more Eagles shows (Vegas crowd last weekend was stellar). Gearing up now for solo shows. So looking forward to it. Come check it out.

[zeldabjr]

New tweet:

[sodascouts]

Wouldn't it be cool if Joe and Tim tweeted at each other during the break? That would be a hoot!

[zeldabjr]
