Don does NOT Tweet!

[sodascouts]

Speak of the devil... we were just joking about the guys being on Twitter in another thread when I got this on Google alert!

-------------------

Please be advised that any "Don Henley" Twitter, Facebook, or MySpace account is not Don Henley of the Eagles.

Don Henley does not "Twitter," nor does he have a Facebook or MySpace account. He does not communicate via social networking sites and has not authorized any account to be created on his behalf.

[this is a direct quote from Don's official website. It would be fun to pretend to be Don Henley and Tweet things like "Hell froze over again…..my cat just brought me my 24k gold slippers instead of my dog."]

-----------------

LOL!!!

I think someone should inform Henley's webmaster that the proper word is "tweet" when speaking of the act of posting to Twitter.

My favorite line: He does not communicate via social networking.

Gee... ya think?

In that recent interview on Irish radio, Glenn referred to 'Spacebook'.

I was wondering if that was his attempt at humor merging the two. In either case, it was funny!

I will choose to believe that! lol

MySpace, YourSpace, whatever!

Wouldn't it be funny to make a Twitter account with the name "FakeDonHenley" and post joke tweets? lol!

I guess several (maybe a majority?) celebrities have had to open Facebook and MySpace accounts to counter Fake sites that were opened.

I know Lucy Walsh had to do that. I follow a few Professional Golfers and have seen some of them with names like "TheRealTigerWoods". Just an example. I don't think Tiger "tweets" or "FaceSpaces" or anything.

Yeah, Stevie Nicks did that (but it was at the behest of an interviewer, who actually opened it FOR her and asked her to use it). She doesn't tweet herself; presumably her assistant does it for her.

I love the fact that it's so vehemently stated. "Don Henley does NOT tweet. He does not communicate via social networking sites." As if it's something kinda dirty. LOL!

I like SpaceBook. How about MyFace? (SuchALovelyPlace)

[eaglesvet]

Troub, your post reminded me of a line of natural facial cleansers/cosmetics and such here in the US called KissMyFace. Now that would really be a lovely place to spot our guys!!

(BTW, I'm like Don..I don't tweet, FaceBook, SpaceBook, MySpace, MyFace...)

My favorite line: He does not communicate via social networking.

Oh, I'm sure he does, just not official.

He has teenage kids, he can't hide from such things.

[sodascouts]

Oh, you can bet his kids use it, Tessa.

I remember recently he was ranting about how Facebook was such a time waster.... he sure knows a lot about Facebook for someone who "does not communicate through social networking." I doubt he has one himself - most people his age don't - so methinks his knowledge about Facebook being a "time waster" was from discovering how much time HIS kids were spending on it!

I can see it now. "What's so interesting about that Facebook that you have to check it all the time?? What are these 'applications' you speak of?? What do you mean you need to log in every day in order to get enough points to reach the next level of the application?? Why don't you spend that time studying?? Don't make me take away your laptop.... wait, you can access the internet on your cellphone too..."

[To himself] "I can't stop them!! D *MN YOU, FACEBOOK!!" LOL
