What's your best tweet?
Please don't judge us for our age - we can't do anything about it! Residual Kid just wants to rock. Is that so wrong? pic.twitter.com/Mv8qXNs7
Share on TwitterWhat are six things you could never do without?
Earplugs (we like it LOUD), Instruments, Fans, Talent (as we're told), Fans and more Fans! Not necessarily in that order.
How do you use Twitter in your professional life?
We're methodically building a DIY empire in the devolving ways of our music industry! One tweet and one follower at a time...
What's your favorite Twitter app?
Twitpic is cool, but we probably haven't scratched the surface on all of them. We tweet, we rock, we coexist in this crazy world!
Twitter or Facebook?
What was the funniest trend you've seen?
Those crazy #Mayans were hilarious! We almost sold our souls to some guy because time was running out on hitting it big!
What feature should Twitter add?
We'd love to have easier access to our music in our profile. Perhaps a personalized profile bar with expandable options for info & interests.
Who do you wish had a Twitter feed but doesn't?
We're still searching, but thankfully we are surrounded by like-minded people who have seen the light of the twitter!
What are some words or phrases you refuse to shorten for brevity?
When you are relegated to 140 characters, you make sacrifices for the sake of the tweet! Refusers are boring.
Is there someone you want to follow you who doesn't already? If so, who?
Not enough room to list them all, but a tarot reader said they will all be following us soon, and bringing cash and prizes. $5
Have you ever unfollowed someone? Who and why?
Yes, but it takes a lot, and we're (currently) limited to only 2000 follows. With so much goodness in the world, we have to be selective.
Why should we vote for you?
Voting for Residual Kid will earn you karma points, free sandwiches and a guest list slot on our world tour! And high fives!
Terms you wish would start trending on Twitter right now?
What's the most interesting connection you've made through Twitter?
Some of our musical heroes are following US, which is the coolest thing ever! Makes us feel warm & fuzzy in an Ozzy kinda way!
Hashtag you created that you wish everyone used?
#noisepunkadelic #residualkid
How do you make your tweets unique?
We wave bacon over our phones & keyboards before tweeting. It seems unique to us - don't judge! But we could use a new keyboard & phones.
What inspires you to tweet?
Music is our passion, and we like talking about music and music-related people, places & things. And skateboards!
Ever get called out for tweeting too much?
Practicing the shameless art of self-promotion has a threshold, and we don't like to walk that fine line of inundation and saturation!
140 characters of advice for a new user?
If you can't bring it with 140 characters, then give up, close your account and convert to Amishism - we don't have time for you!
How long can you go without a tweet?
That's like asking a prostitute how long between dental exams. Maybe not, but tweeting feels good! We're new to this game, but love it!
What question are we not asking here that we should?
How many licks do you believe it would take to get to the center of a tootsie roll pop? Or would that be a copyright infringement?
How do you imagine Twitter changing?
140 characters seems so 2012! 150+ is the future... and maybe lasers?
Who do you admire most for his or her use of Twitter?
Not to go all political, but President Barack Obama is tweeting and it is validation that we are doing the right thing!
Who is the funniest person on Twitter that you follow?
Might be a tie between Zach Galiafinakis and Patton Oswalt, but we surround ourselves with funny people!
What is one of the biggest misconceptions of Twitter?
We were told that Twitter would bring fame, fortune and everything that goes with it, but it was a Queen lyric! We ARE the Champions!
Why should people follow you?
Whitney Houston said it best (and most obviously), "I believe the children are our future." We ROCK, and the world needs to know us!
Can you name some one-of-a-kind Twitter accounts that you follow?
We follow music industry folk, and our favorite people, places and things. We like to follow and be followed, which sounds a little creepy...
How do you decide what to tweet?
Relevance is important, and we don't ever want to bore people away. We'd give away cash if we had any!
How do you use social media to motivate yourself or others to live a healthier life?
We believe in the magical healing powers of music, and our soapbox is all about sharing our rock medicine!
How has social media helped bring your family closer together and #keepgoodgoing?
We're 12-14 years old, and social media has been a great way to tell the world about our music passion. Our family keeps growing!
Why'd you start tweeting?
Social Media is the future, and as long as people find our music interesting and relevant, we love to share it! Uh... and it's FREE!
Has Twitter changed your life? If yes, how?
Before Twitter, we were an old, crusty country cover band... then we found Twitter, and it turned us into the 2nd coming of Nirvana! Well...
What do you wish people would do more of on Twitter?
Stop posting stuff we don't have time for - life is too short! Be amazing and post amazing items. The future depends upon it!
How will the world change in the next year?
Curiosity killed the cat, but tolerance can save the world! We love everyone! Stop trying to change others, and work on acceptance! Peace!
What are some big Twitter faux pas?
Dead links suck! RT'ing dumb stuff double sucks!
What will the world be like 10 years from now?
Our goal is to be the most trendingly tweeted band, with the most followers and fans. And we will usher in world peace through ROCK!
