Hi there altrocklifers! I’m a big fan of all things Twitter, and I can spend hours mindlessly scrolling down my timeline. Here’s a round-up of my favourite Twitter accounts, in no particular order, run by the members of my favourite bands.
Sean Smith
Even though The Blackout are dead and gone (RIP), Sean is still pretty active on Twitter and regularly posts some hilarious tweets.
GIRLS that go on about RUBY ROSE….stop pretending you’re a bit gay and admit you fancy Andy from Black Veil Brides. pic.twitter.com/vejnThvHdj

Gerard Way
If you’re into surreal humour, then Gerard’s Twitter account is the one for you. Here’s an example of him asking the big questions.

Mark Hoppus
Mark regularly wins ‘Best Twitter’ awards, and just a quick glance at his profile will explain why.
Eating pizza with a knife and fork like I’m king of the damn universe. — Dad (@markhoppus) July 1, 2015
Pete Wentz
Pete manages to balance tweeting about his children, Fall Out Boy’s tours and live performances and supporting fellow musicians with surprising ease, with a little bit of humour thrown in.
New dad level reached: went to the movies alone wearing shorts and ate popcorn for dinner.

James Davies
What’s this, another ex-member of The Blackout? James is one of my favourite Tweeters, and he never fails to bring a smile to my face. If you’re a fan of The Simpsons, his account will definitely be to your taste.
Marketing idea; re issue first album and call it “We Are The Dinomite” to coincide with Jurassic World. 💰💰💰💰💰💰💰 — James Davies (@Bobgotbored) June 12, 2015
