Hi, this is my first entry to the steemit openmic. I recorded this on the street just after I finnished my busking session yesterday. Thought it was a fun thing to show what busiking is the swedish winter might look like!
Im sorry about the ringing sound(its not feedback).. its something that happens independent of what gear I use and it only happens on the street... I suspect that it has something to do with all the electric lines underground?... please try to ignore it and focus on the music!
If any electrician has a solution to this problem ill be forever thankfull!
Next week ill upload something recored from home so you dont have to bear with the ringing sound!
Hope you enjoy the music!
with love
Timothy
Timothy , holy stars! I mean how are you not over-the-moon famous by now? Your voice kills me. At 1:50 mark I just lost it. This is better than Damien Rice. Please record more songs soon. I don't want to wait a whole other week. Much respect!
🎼🌸🎼🌸🎼🌸 💕-serena.
Also I want to send you an invite to a room at discord but I don't know how. There's a group there called PALS.. (Peace Abundance Liberty) .. maybe you have to just register at the main discord site first. Anyway, hot damn .. love your music. Just call me fan girl.

Ha.. not creepy. Thanks for looking me up. I'm not there much anymore though. I moved over here to do some private blogging and didn't tell much of anyone about being here. My secret hideout. Ha..so don't mention steemit on my Facebook.. lol. I don't want some of them to follow me. Too much negativity over there lately. Steemit is so much more positive. I love it. I'm so happy here. I hope you find the same happiness.

Ok first off, you sound fucking great. Next questions.. How do you keep your fingers agile enough to play in those temperatures? And also does the weather damage your guitar? I love busking but can't handle the cold at all lol nor can my guitar.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Thanks man! Great to meet another busker here <3
First of I dont think I ever played a nylon string guitar that could handle it... but maybe you play steelstring? If thats the case then a robust guitar, not to delicate or woody is required. If one could afford it i suspect that a carbon fibre guitar like a "rainsong" guitar would work very well. I play a Takamine, a discontiniued model, but very similar to the EF341SC and its been with me for 10 years and still going strong...
For oneself its key to dress warmer all over the body then what you would find normal... to the point where you are warm instead of not feeling cold... just below the point where you sweat outdoors ;) That way you have warm blood circulating your fingers through out your shift! Its not gonna go hand in hand with a cool appearance though :P

also dress the hands as much as possible... the right hand (if you are righthandeed that is) only needs the tips uncoverd and the left hand can pretty much handle only uncovering the pointing finger (dont know the correct word, english is a second language, but the finger closest to the thumb) for your barre chords and the other fingers can just have the tip uncovered! Woolen wristwarmers up to the knuckles if needed... and if you are really pushing below water freezing point then there are some other opptions im glad to discuss if its even an issue where you live!

Thank! I just woke up from phonecall and went to the computer to find such nice response :) This perticular recording is made with my Iphone as a video... dont know if i can separate the audio from it.. guess i could make a audio recording from home though.. but the feeling cant be the same, theres something magical that happens in the street, a building up of sort, and this is recorded after 5 hours of playing, also at the moment my sound interface is broken.. and I only have my phone to record on :/ But if you want Ill send you what you prefer :)

Witnesses are mainly responsible foot block production and for tve security of the network. Moreover, they are often involved in the whole platform life as developpers, promoters and helpers.
They are many posts on Steemit that describe their role in details.
I wish you all the best. Steem on!

Ah you have a gorgeous clear voice for a clear and cold night. Very impressed you can manage the fingerpicking out there in the cold - I played an outdoor gig at a snowboard big air contest once and half way through more or less couldn't play my guitar any more. Really beautiful cover, love the way it builds up slowly. You rock!

If you ever find yourself in a situation like that again I recommend wearing a lot of clothes. Not just warm fingerless gloves but being warm all over the body. This way you get warm blood to your hands all the time and it makes all the difference. Iv managed to play (without freezing) 8hour shifts in about -10C (14 F) although not in windy conditions...

Fantastic! What/where is the open mic? Maybe, I can read some of my poetry?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Hey :) Nice that you like it! I dont think I saw anyone entering the openmic with only poetry.. if you put music to it then its probably alright! But i think there needs to be some musical elements for it to qualify as a valid entry to this perticular open mic... there is nothing saying that there could not be a openmic dedicated for poetry reading though! You could start something like that! If your in no way a musician and still really want to do something with your poetry in this open mic then you could colaborate with someone with music skills to make your entry valid!... iv seen rap music for example in the contest.. so if you use some element of music and then read your poetry it might be accepted! Anyone reading this with a better answer please feel free to fill in or correct my answer! with love @timothybusker

Thanks, Timothy! Yes, might be a cool idea to start a poetry reading open mic. Afraid my music skills aren't too hot--glockenspiel and a bit of piano--probably third grade level ;)
