Steemit Open Mic is an online, live music venue to give musicians a chance to share their music with the Steemit community and get their music heard. It is growing larger every week thanks to all of you.
This week's entries have been split into three posts because we have so many entries that we broke the post size limit on Steemit!
This post is part one and this is
Steemit Open Mic Week 69 - See Who Played - Part 2
Steemit Open Mic Week 69 - See Who Played - Part 3
To see all the entries you'll have to go there too. The post was so big the website would not post it!
The number of entries shot up to a record 688 entries this week of which 484 are valid entries! Awesome guys!
Not all of the entries are in these posts though.
Due to the sheer numbers of entries this week we have only picked 367 of the best ones to put in these posts. If I included all posts it would require over 7 posts. Everyone who had a valid entry was supported even if you don't find your post in these pages and I hope you enjoy the diversity of music from around the world this week.
There have been a flush of new accounts downloading people's valid Open Mic entries, uploading them to a new YouTube account, and posting it as their own performance on their multiple Steemit accounts. Those will not be included and I have muted those accounts.
To the scammers doing this, muting your account means I will no longer see your posts so you are wasting yours and every one elses time continuing down that path.
We put a new rule in place that is designed to stop scammers, not singers as some people seemed to have interpreted this post.

Steemit Open Mic is growing so fast that a lot of people are entering without really reading the rules so I want to do a little house cleaning for those entering the contest.
The bigger this grows the easier it is to miss someone's entry post so following these rules makes us see you have entered so we can upvote you.
For more on the rules read, What Are The Rules To Enter Steemit Open Mic And Why Do We Have Rules Anyways?
Steemit Open Mic is a live music contest and we need to know that you are really playing or singing us a song for this contest in particular. That's why to qualify for prizes you must say "Steemit Open Mic Week" (next week number) at the beginning of your video just before you play or sing the song. If you don't or if you edit in later onto a prerecorded performance you will not qualify for prizes.
If your song is an original song then you MUST put the word "original" in your title. Original songs get a small bonus right now and it is easier to find all the original songs with the word added in the title.
The next thing that is very important it to begin your title with "Steemit Open Mic Week (the current week number)" and place that as the first words of your title or I may not be able to find your post at all.
Here is a perfect example of a correctly titled post to enter Steemit Open Mic for an original song.
This would be a perfectly titled post for a cover song entering the contest.
Theses posts are really easy to find in the feed and upvote them. They can easily be spotted so none of them get missed.
Also, @andybets from steemreports.com is working on a chart that is targeting those keywords to sort all entries by originals and covers.
It is SO cool and you can check it out with this sneak peak of the Steemit Open Mic Chart
NOTE: The order this chart lists the performances has no bearing on choosing the finalists. Just because a video is at the top doesn't mean they will win the contest.
Steemit Open Mic Week 69 performances are in and there's still time to vote for your favorites.
Great songs and performances this week. Have a listen to them below and be sure to show your support and upvote your favorites.
It's all in good fun and community spirit and I want to thank everyone for their enthusiastic support.

Hello @luzcypher my entry did not enter the competition and I do not know why, I wanted to know what I did wrong because I worked with a lot of dedication in it, and I do not understand why I did not receive your vote, please tell me if I violated the rules, since they changed the rules I have tried to stick to them since my instrument is the voice and I have really enjoyed showing a new song every week over here ... Please clear this to me because I want to continue being part of the Open

Hi @franj26 It happened to me the same thing I raised my ticket the first day of the competition (5 days ago) and they did not vote my ticket. Apparently he did not see himself for some reason.

Yo vi tu caso, pero al parecer tu post fue publicado hace dos días. Aquí lo dice y @luzcypher te respondió, pero no se que pasó con el mío.
