Title: Robert Smith interacted with fans on social media for the first time ever
Post by: dsanchez on October 25, 2022, 23:46:36
Robert Smith just replied the below message on Twitter, marking his first interaction ever with a fan on any social media:

another fan gave another answer to which Robert again replied!


The above came as surprise, as Robert Smith has bashed social media in the past, and Twitter in particular:

QuoteI've never read a single tweet, I refuse to go to Twitter, because I think its e anym ... madness! They tell me - how well can you communicate directly with fans. Yes, I do not want to! I do not want to talk to them every day! I do not want them to know what I ate for breakfast! If I like a musician, I want it to be mysterious, inaccessible, so that it takes you to some his own, separate world. But people think otherwise. I am clearly in the minority.

Times change, I guess :)

I just realized that last 5th November Robert Smith himself liked and RT a tweet from us. This made my day! :heart-eyes

I am still in shock...
