Steemit CEO @ned and his team wrote such a beautiful letter to the Steemians that I felt it had to be set to music. This is my attempt at turning it into a little opera.
I started with the post. Here’s a link: https://steemit.com/steemit/@steemitblog/steemit-winter-update-2017-reflection-our-vision-statement-and-mission-and-a-look-forward. READ IT!
I didn’t prepare to perform this at all – it is completely improvised. I simply got the guitar, tuned it up, and started playing. So whatever sounds unrehearsed, was. There are also a couple of errors in there / it was a LOT of text!
In the song I mention the following amazing Steem-team folks: @goldibex @pkattera @andrarchy @theoretical. I apologize if I mis-sung your name! Let me know if I did :)
Here’s a picture of what my one monitor looked like while I was singing and playing (it's a lot of text!).
Tell me what you think!
Catch you on the flip side. We are alive!

OMG, that was nice!
Hope you continue with other posts!
Thanks @bronevik!
lol I love the creativity of taking the post and singing it! We must have the same definition of "brief" being less than an hour!
I will resteem and am enjoying listening to this!
Same as mine exactly!
Haha! Yeah, that’s the truth @jerrybanfield. I played music on @DLive for almost 3 hours the other day :)
Thank you for resteeming! That means a lot. Cheers, my friend! Looking forward to collaborating on some tunes down the road :)
Better than any audiobook I ever heard, LOL! Great job brother.
Thanks, my friend @abrockman! Haha. I appreciate it. This was a blast.
You always have totally extraordinary ideas, thats the creative mind of a genius
Thanks so much @pyro0816! Tell me if you dig the opera. It's 38 minutes long! Hahaha. :)
I did the whole thing. Good thing, you rocked the shit out of it in the middle and at the end.
Haha. Thanks! I did my best :) LOL.
I admire your tenacity. Didnt watch the whole thing but you win points for seeing it through once you'd started it! :)
That's high praise, my friend! Had no idea what I was getting into when I started, hahaha. Thanks for checking it out!
Haha, thanks for singing it for us!
I love how you can just tell a story, give information, hold a discussion, tell ANYTHING, while jamming. I absolutely enjoyed your performance. 😄
And the soft 'binance dot cooom...'
Haha @art.life Thanks!
Yup. I tried to be tender with binance :) I'm always looking for vowels as I'm trying to sing the text :) As an artist, you will dig that mindset. I have to kind of be in there seeing what's next.
Thanks for the note! :)
Kent, you are super talented! Keep it up, I'm proud of you! 🙌🏼

That’s the truth @djoi!
Dude, I listened to the first 5 minutes... This must have taken you a while to create.. very impressed .
Haha! Yeah, man, it was pretty nuts. It took me the 38 minutes to record :)
Wow dude. You must be so beat haha
Totally cooked. That's why I'm gonna go and do some @dlive later today! LOL.
Drink a ton of water, Rest up, and grind my man :)
Yessir!
As many times as i think "tl;dr" i could really need someone like you.. i would never again miss a memo...
I have no idea what that means @pyro0816!
@drkent oh sorry i thought it's commonly known. TL;DR, short for "too long; didn't read"
Oh! Yes, just let me know, and I can read all of your memos for you! Haha.
At 17:50 you totally bombed it! I totally celebrate that moment.Hahaha
Haha! I absolutely did! :) LOL>
oh wow the part starting at 34:34 is even rocking more... great improvisation. I really admire your talent.
Thanks :)
I don't know if you know about this study that was once done where they proved that a foreign language is learned better when sung, so this is like ideal the education and music at the same time for me lol well done!
Hey @tanbay, it makes total sense. :) And Steem and crypto are definitely different languages for me!
Can steem go to $ 100 dollar in 2018 ?
That’s a very good question @steemian007. Who knows! :)
