Music!
For my twitter analyzing blog I decided to decipher the online identity of @thejulieavenue. In Julie’s icon picture, she was holding her guitar-obviously she liked music. She described herself as a musician, hairstylist, and makeup artist in her bio. Therefore since music was mentioned again, I understood it was going to be a huge part of her “following” list which consisted of 16 people. I just did not realize how huge.
Almost everyone on Julie’s “following” list was somehow involved with music. She was following a couple members of bands such as Aaron Marsh (@aaronmarshmusic) from Copeland and Andy (@andyprovidence) from This Providence. Her tweets mentioned singing the blues at various venues. Most likely, she sang with the blues harp player on her “following list”, @Pine_Wolf. Several female solo artists such as Joy Williams (@joywilliams), Colbie Caillat (@ColbieCaillat), and Katy Perry (@katyperry) also made the list. I skimmed through some of her tweets and she mentioned writing music. These strong, female artists have probably helped to inspire and shape Julie as a musician and performer.
There was one person in particular on her list that stuck out to me, hence I investigated. His name was Russell Brand (@rustyrockets). Brand is an English comedian and actor and has had hilarious roles in movies such as “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” and “Bedtime Stories”. Along with acting, he also wrote a book entitled My Booky Wook that recounted the tales of his rather turbulent life. When I found out that Russell dabbled in music, I was not surprised. Of course he was musical, or else he could not have been on @thejulieavenue’s “following” list!
