Busy little tweeter, ain't he? And he replies to tweets! What a time to be alive. Hopefully we won't have happy feet: redux.

Though i don't think his posts exist anymore, they've gone to the great forum in the sky. You may find posts discussing the events of the happyfeet reign of terror but it's all now myth and legend. The greatest trick happyfeet ever pulled was convincing the forum he didn't exist. And just like that... he's gone.

I do think it's great to be honest, i always wanted nicky to reply to tweets and i get the rock and/or roll mystique thing i really do but if you do social media i think you gotta jump in with both feet. Where the hell else do they expect their audience to come from otherwise?

Sean's great. Digged the burn he gave to some people doubting it's really him by posting a picture of a bunch of awards.

I just wonder why now. Of course, if anyone would be on Twitter, Sean seems the most likely as he comes across as a techie and not a semi-Luddite.

I was sceptical it was him, but the pics of awards with shoes that someone made him and the fact that Kieran Evans follows him has swayed me.

Wow, have been so tired this week I couldn't even type 'Sean'.

Bar the aforementioned doubter, hope he doesn't get any Twitter trollin'.

Yep. He's really engaging and properly down-to-earth.

Responded to my tweet to say that he enjoyed the Lifeblood and SATT tours.

I just discovered Sean's twitter this morning. He seems surprisingly engaged and responding to most on it. Thought it was very cool.
