Hello to all you guys! When I found out about Steemit, my first thought was how this platform is gonna change the world, then how this platform isn't already bigger than Facebook yet! Twisted Sister has a whole lotta fans out there, and I wanna get the word out!
From left to right: Mike Portnoy, Myself, Dee Snider, Jay Jay French, and Mark Mendoza. Mike Portnoy replaced A.J. Pero in our band after his sudden and tragic passing.
A Little About Me
On stage I'm Eddie "Fingers" Ojeda, and I'm an original band member with Twisted Sister. Our band has been playing together since the late 70's. Music was my world, especially Jimmy Hendrix, The Beatles, and Pink Floyd, which were some of my biggest influences while I was growing up in New York City. When our then small band in the 70's was able to sign a record deal, I couldn't believe we made it. The music industry isn't the dream I thought it would be, but it changed my life forever, and I want to share that life with all of you guys!
If you want to learn more about the band's history, there's an incredible documentary on Netflix called "We Are Twisted F***ing Sister!" If you love Twisted Sister, you will love it as much as I did!
My Beginning in the Crypto Market
I got into cryptocurrency about a month ago when I saw the potential of the market over the last few months and how fast it's expanding. Cryptocurrency has consumed become a small obsession of mine in a short time span. This is such an amazing opportunity for people to get engaged in something that has the potential to dominate the future of the financial world. My experience with bitcoin was so similar to others, years ago just hearing about it from the mainstream news, and thinking about the lucky people who were able to change their own lives by taking a risk and believing in this new market. When it boomed again in February, I kept an eye on it, until I finally decided I was tired of watching and wanted to be a part of this.
My biggest help was Chris Dunn on youtube and @jerrybanfield, who have amazing content and have been so helpful with their videos introducing people to this new market. Everyone on youtube who puts their thoughts out there, you do such amazing work, and I wouldn't even be here if I didn't learn about it through content creators like them. Thanks to all you guys who put in the effort to make cryptocurrency grow even faster!

Welcome, good to have you on here.
I used to have the lyrics of Stay Hungry pinned on my bedroom wall as a teenager. A very inspiring song.
Have seen you guys playing at Download. UK
I photographed Dee in 2015, when he headlined at the Steelhouse Festival, Wales, UK
He allowed me to photograph the entire show and got all the volunteers that work at Steelhouse Festival up on stage for some recognition.
What a nice guy!
Just saw him play again a few days ago at Hellfest, France.
I did manage to buy a few bitcoins a few years ago and think that crypto is the future; I believe it is still in its infancy. I'm very new to steemit myself and still on a learning curve, but think it's an amazing concept.
I looked forward to reading your posts.

Fans around are truly inspiring. I have been thinking of a lot of different post ideas, but I've just been making comments for now. Want to build my profile, and have a couple of things ready, then try to post something every day or every other day.
The support of every fan is so critical. I am glad you got a good impression of Dee. We can't always be perfect, but we aren't anything without the people who support us.
