Very cool of you @pfunk to help promote Open Mic as well as sponsor it for so long. People really seem to be having fun with it.

Here is what some people have said about Open Mic.

  • It's great to post in Open Mic again, it was one of the reasons I joined and stayed here on steemit. - @kuttmargo
  • I had no idea that the Open Mic Contest had even been created and had discovered it in the second week of its progress when @luzcypher had graciously reached out to me and invited me to join in. I was pretty excited since I hadn't had the opportunity to do open mics as of lately being so busy but now I had my chance to showcase more of my music on this wonderful platform as opposed to just posting up videos on Youtube, sharing them on Facebook, and not getting much feedback. - @verbal-d
  • oh man i love open mic so glad to be back over here listening to the fresh stuff, every entry was fantastic this week, loved the painted black sounded like a plane was about to crash at the very end in the back ground had me crackin up! @tfeldman that was a great performance and also @ik666 with the looper very cool. The green sleeves on the classic guitar was beautiful and I absolutely loved that pure vocal acoustic rendition of one of my favorite 4 non blondes songs. ! great line up - @soundlegion

So come on over and have some fun playing and singing music on Steemit.
And @pfunk you have been so awesome with your continued, enthusiastic support and as far as your generosity expressed in your post here:

All SBDs earned from this post will go to @luzcypher to use or spend at his discretion.

I will use it to pay it forward and increase the rewards to the Open Mic contest. Thank you.Upvoted, Resteemed, Tweeted, added to forums and added to the Open Mic contest post.

JUST IN: I started an Open Mic contest on Steemit and its in its 34 week. This week 4 time platinum recording artist Paul Carter, aka, @thisisbenbrick played a song for Open Mic. Awesome.

@pfunk thanks for the upvote in ben's post. I really appreciate it -- I love the concept of curation, but I would gladly give kudos, with no reward :) You rock!

Great Contest! Thinking on participating..hmm
but, is this open for different languages? We really have cool songs from our dialect. xD
Upvoted and Resteemed!

Yes! It's very open, any language, any genre. Do what you do best :)

Of course, music is the universal language. What language would you be posting in? Here are the rules in Spanish.

THIS is the reason I joined steemit. The open mic has seriously been so important to me as a musician! It's amazing to get to share my original songs with such a great supportive community.

That's awesome to hear!

openmic is great fun here on steemit and encourages community bonding through music. great great stuff. Im a huge fan and enter every chance I get. Massive ups for this post to @pfunk and for all you do for openmic and the open mic community

Big fan of your music @soundlegion.

BIG ups its good to hear a language I speak on here @soundlegion im following @tfunk follow @luzcypher +followed up Bellingham WA is watching

I did know it existed, but had not seen a post for a while, so I was wondering if it was still going on... Now that I know, maybe I should post one of my drumming session on a Pan-Art Hang tuned with a Chinese tone called Yu-Diao, or the jam on a propane tank tuned to a Balinese scale?!?

They don't have lyrics, per se, but they sure sing... Namaste :)

Fresh performances are encouraged but that stuff would be cool to see anyway. :)

I recorded everything this weekend?!. :)

Namaste :)

This is a great contest,
I am gonna invite some musician, and show them this contest :)
this contest is much appreciable !!

Please do invite your musician friends

@luzcypher is the best! :)

Ahh, you're a sweetie.

Love your music.

Hell yeah!

This is an AWESOME idea!!!!

I sing but I don't know why I can't get myself to participate :p

Give it a try, you don't have to put your face in it.

Okay. Maybe I will.

I didn't know. But I'll check it out now! Cheers :)

Mission accomplished!

Yeah, that worked out well! :O

Can I use vocaroo to publish my voice? Or do I need to upload a video ? :o

I don't see why not, but you'd have to ask @luzcypher. It's perfectly fine not to show your face, many people don't :)

Ya estoy preparando mi entrada para esta semana!... Too much fun doing this! :D

Very nice!

You are awesome. Thank you. =]

I keep meaning to enter this but my one take magic I had when in a band seems to have deserted me long ago!

  ·  8 years ago (edited)

I'd love to see an entry from you! Maybe a few practice runs will shake off the rust :P

I'm practicing. I will do it definitely at some point!!

It's a great contest and encourages original content creators. Thank you and @luzcypher for doing this. It brings a lot of uniqueness and creativity on the platform. Great work!

Probably the best contest and opportunity for steem musicians currently!

QUESTION: Obviously there's no post to link it to yet but if I publish my entry for next week (week 35) on my blog, Today, that won't disqualify it or anything will it?

nice! I'll try to enter next round.

Awesome :) might have to finally get around to uploading some spoken poetry! Thanks for the motivation..

Mission accomplished :)

Steemit open mic week #45

Hi pfunk - this is a great contest that luzcypher is running and i saw your name on her posts. I am also a musician with music released on itunes and other platforms, i saw there is a gap for people like me with produced music to enter a contest. So i started one a couple of weeks ago and it has been a big success with some brilliant artists entering music. Luzcypher came 3rd in the first week and the 1st place went to a really talented singer musician. I wanted to say hi and invite you to check out this weeks contest, the results will be up in around 7 hours. No worries if your too busy, i understand, drop in when it suits you. Keep rockin-David

Oooh now this is a piece of me!

nice post a like it I would be happy if you like to follow me and give your opinion about my posts

Thank you so much @Pfunk for following me..

I so dig this!! Okay, I've been working on my chops to be able to nail some upper range...I will have to work something up!

(Totally doing my new to Steemit geeky freakout dance)

never heard of open mic til this post sounds like a cool idea

amazing contest @pfunk I hope I can be in the contest soon! I like the idea that a lot of new musicians can come out by using Steemit and sharing their own content too.

I wish I could joint to this awesome open mic contest. I love to sing even i am out of tune.I appreciate what is the result of my entry soon even every bodies throw me ripe tomatoes hu hu hu hu @plunk

Hmm¿ A recitation¿ Recorded, then posted where, on my blog¿ under what banner? To someone's 'reply'. Exactly how is this done? Or just written and posted in my blog, but again, under what banner?
I do apologise, but navigation around here is difficult to remember. I still can't find the uses of many of the icons, or how to reach some menus when elsewhere. Computers are really not my field. 😃
