He's smart, political, and bold. And he never takes the easy way out, either.
Oh, and he plays badass guitar, too. Right.
While he could use Twitter to tweet about his morning coffee (like Jane's Addiction guitarist Dave Navarro) or, better yet, give some tickets to away for some upcoming shows,* he doesn't. Instead, he uses his new Twitter account and subsequent feed to comment on society and point out how stupid and superficial the world can be -- and make all of his "followers" think, too.
Shameless plug of the day: I wrote a good story about Navarro's tweeting about a month ago. If you haven't already, read it by clicking here.
Morello is currently on tour with his new band, Street Sweeper Social Club, and will be in Vegas in a few days, at Wasted Space on Sunday and the Pearl on Monday.
(SSSC is opening for Nine Inch Nails and Jane's Addiction's current NINJA tour.)
Follow Morello on Twitter via tmorello; Navarro via davenavarro6767; Reznor via trent_reznor; and/or yours truly via marseniuk. And be sure to catch NINJA at the Pearl on Monday if you can -- it's shaping up to be a great show, despite Perry Farrell's calf injury.
* NIN's frontman, Trent Reznor, is an extremely tech-savvy member of Twitter nation, and has been giving away five tickets and backstage passes to any show in the U.S. every day for about a week now. Navarro gives tickets to shows away via Twitter, too, but only for shows that same night, and no backstage passes.
