We survived the week, you guys! Â I hope the election did not cost you too many Facebook friends or Twitter followers. Â If it did, though, I have some tweet-ers who might can help you fill those post #decision2012 voids you incurred.
Our first #TwitterThursday account got some good news today.  @hissgldnmssr was announced as one of the first wave of artists added to the SXSW festival this coming year.  I know, you’re thinking, “Didn’t South-by just happen?”  It sure does seem like it, but passes for 2013 are already on sale.  So far, no SC bands have been added to the bill, but @hissgldnmssr out of Durham is going to bring a little of the Carolinas to Texas for us.
I realize that I gush over every single person I write about on #TwitterThursday, but bear with me. Â I don’t know anyone else in my tweet circle who would post a Miles Davis performance from Denmark in the 70s. Â If my brother tweeted, he probably would, actually. Â So, I guess @hissgldnmssr, I love you like a brother? Â You seem super cool–like the cool older brother who gives you hand-me-down band shirts and talks about when music was real. Â Can we have coffee and exchange mixtapes?
Newer to Twitter, @hissgldnmssr seems to be an avid responder. Â If you like artists you can personally interact with, you should follow this gent. Â You should also check out the tunes, man. Â I am officially obsessed. Â I think you’ll be pleased with yourself if you do so.
Up next, we have the adorable Brave Baby tweeting on @bravebabymusic. Â Am I allowed to call you adorable? Â Please send all complaints in the form of tacos to my headquarters. Â I’ll get the message.
If you’re eating those tacos, I can assume they aren’t complaints headed my way, right? Â Ok good. Â I’d hate to think we aren’t on good terms.
Viva La Ladson might sound funny to some, but it’s actually the official city motto. Â I appreciate that @bravebabymusic is showing some love to one of the lesser known Berkeley County locales. Â Viva La Ladson, indeed.
There’s so much I love about this photograph, I can’t even begin to talk about it without getting verklempt. Â An arm injury does not stop the work of rock. Â Do it! Â Show some label love! Â For the awesomeness of all the things this tweet combines–hardwork, label love, label mate support, the word nude–you should at the least check out @bravebabymusic‘s music. Â And tweets. Â And shows when they add more. Â And whatever else they want. Â Seriously.
Think you know a band or something in the SC area that needs the attention of #TwitterThursday? Â Send it to @SceneSCÂ and remember to hashtag it! Â Without that hashtag we will have no idea what you could possibly mean.
