SteemStock Update #1 - SteemStock still happening, event organizer says. Life got in the way, date changed to Feb/March, so it does not conflict with SteemFest 2. Still in Fort Worth TX. Complete Overview.

in steemstock •  7 years ago  (edited)

TLDR: SteemStock is: A Steemit-fueled Family Gathering of sorts, with outdoor music, art, food festival coming to Austin, Texas.

Date moved to Feb/March so it does not conflicts or come too close to the annual official SteemFest gathering.


Why SteemStock? Why support it?

--

Because this is a Community Resource / Event and I care and we are all in this together. None of us are getting out alive.

I am still helping organize this but with very limited input and time on my end. I plan on donating to this event when I can as well.

I supported the event from the 1st nite it was announced and I fully support the organizer too, he is a solid guy and I like him a lot.

He cares about the Steemit community and I know when he was going thru his tough times, he was very thankful for us as his Steemit family, and that is another reason I support him and this event.

I stayed in touch with him, checked on him and that is what family is about. He checked on me during my last year of brutal issues after being run over by a car.

That man is @riosparada - and I consider him a good Steemian and good friend.

That is a bit of the backstory, and I will keep this as part of the template for this series.

I had always planned on writing posts to keep this issue in the newsfeeds and he knows this. Events like this need help, encouragement, promotion, funding and general support.

We can all do a little bit.

Thanks to @rigaronib for all the logo work, he is very good if anyone needs anything.



Steemstock will have awesome live music,live art, camping available for those who wish to camp, genuine sustainability, face to face community building, great food, fun activities, tattoo artists, yoga, meditation, a mini-spa, crypto/trading/blockchain/tech/revolution talks, workshops, wifi, a market place and much much more!!!

The STEEMSTOCK puzzle will come together!

After several tragic events starting with my dad's death in January I have somehow managed to make it back to where I can think straight again (kind of 😊)

I want to apologize for leaving everyone hanging for the past few months. It seems like steemstock was finally gaining momentum and then I had to put it on hold.

My office staff will be helping me with steemstock now so I will be able to make progress much faster.

I got several emails raising concerns about the date for steemstock being so close to SteemFest. My intention was never to compete with SteemFest. SteemFest is integral part of steemit and it will continue to grow each year. I plan on attending all future SteemFest events, life permitting. (I had purchased my ticket, hotel and airfare for SteemFest #1 but my dad got sick and eventually died in January. I stayed by his side from the time he got sick until his death)

That being said I am planning on moving the date for steemstock to February or March.

I will be sending out an email to everyone on the mailing list soon. After that, one of my secretaries will be checking and responding to emails daily.

For anyone who has not heard about steemstock before:

Steemstock is Steemit-fueled outdoor music and art festival coming to Austin, TX! (thanks for the description @papa-pepper :-)

Steemstock will have awesome live music,live art, camping available for those who wish to camp, genuine sustainability, face to face community building, great food, fun activities, tattoo artists, yoga, meditation, a mini-spa, crypto/trading/blockchain/tech/revolution talks, workshops, wifi, a market place and much much more!!! (If you see anything missing from the list please leave a comment)

As for the music and art, my goal is to recruit 100% steemit talent. I would also like to have some guest speakers - there are plenty of qualified candidates here on steemit.

Steemstock will foster the growth of steemit and steem by bringing awareness to the community as well as to the currency. People will be able to sign up for steemit at steemstock. I'm sure there will be plenty of people who can guide the newcomers through the sign up process, give advice and answer any questions.

Steemstock will cross promote locally in Austin in order to create a diverse attendance of potential steemers.

The possibilities are endless!!!! If you have any comments, input or recommendations please leave a comment below.

Just in case you missed it you can be added by emailing [email protected]. I have not sent out any emails yet but I wanted to assure everyone that when I do, they will be sent individually. So no one will see each other's email addresses.

Talk to you soon!!

FULL STEEM AHEAD!!!!



That is the end of today's post in this series. I wanted to cover all the basics in the Series constants, as usual, for all the new people reading this post for the first time, since we have piles of people joining daily and to remind more veteran Steemians.

If you are still reading -- thank you very much and have a nice day. I hope something here helps you.


Follow @steemstock, @riosparada or myself for more info.


Thanks for reading, have a nice day.

Make a global tournee out of it, like a moving festival 🎶🍺

Truth!!!

Sounds very exciting. I want to make every steem meetup and event possible. I wish there was a way to follow a tag on steemit.... is there?

You have to go to the tags and type it in currently and see what comes up, that is the only way.

Amazing, heard the first time of steemstock. Sometimes i can not believe how crea(c)tive the steemit community really is. Thats why steemit will skyrocket. 🙌🙌🙌

Steem On...

Seems like an another amazing Steemit event.
I never have enough money to travel to these places.
I hope one comes to th UK.
Good Luck with the event

Ppl. in the UK are or have been working on them the last 6 mths, I have seen them.

Love spicy but maybe some on your list are out of my range 😜😜 @ch00fy for more food

You will have to watch your unrelated link dropping like this or you will be flagged or ignored by people, just letting you know.

Good afternoon Barry, Had no idea about Your Father's death in January...

Please let me help regarding Your interest, if this is still a goal, in becoming a Witness. Will do whatever I can to support You.

UpVoted... Have a Good Week !!

My dad died 3 yrs ago, if you notice the wording here, I state that the last half of the post was updates quoted (and you can see the quotes on the page in grey text w the lines at the start of each quote) - are from Rick via his @steemstock account but thanks.

This is great man! I hope I can make it to this.

I hope we both can! I may not be able to go, with the issues on my end, but I knew that last year around Christmas when the first talk of this happened one night. I decided it is a perfect event to support no matter what on my end.

Perfect! Happy to see an update.
I wish I would've recieved the notification of being tagged in this so I could've seen it sooner...but alas, I did not.

Alas, it always ends up in my

What Steemit Needs

series LOL!!

Hahaha Oh the irony!

thanks for sharing

Awesome!
I am super excited about the potential of this event!
I will be at SteemFest2 and am a huge supporter of Steemit!
I am a professional musician, speaker and I also have the most successful Steemit Fashion line in existence!
If you want to collaborate on a successful event let me know. I can help!

Oh, I came on here long after your legend was known, and commented on a couple things, I see your name almost daily, I have quietly supported your works and friends on here, many many times, thru @saramiller my #CryptoCrush and @everlove

The MTV movie nite livestream I actually promoted the heck out of, I am a hippy basically, realtor, offgrid guy, who has fed the homeless, challenged the state and done a lot of activism --- we have some things in common.

Just a bit about me, since you do not know me.

I talk most with Miss Sara.

We both won trips this week as you know (about her anyways) so I hope to meet you guys.

I am the guy who was run over by a car, and the state is burying my file, due to apprehension of bias, presumably, due to my somewhat high profile activism for years calling out corruption and the police state.

  • if anyone there mentioned that kinda guy from Canadastan, that would be me Mr. Quinn.

(:

Tell Sara I said hi!

Hey Hey!
Great to meet your aquantence and I VERY much appreciate your support of @saramiller (though thats obviously quite selfish of u ;-)> and totally justified! hehe) and @everlove is such a gem of great value to us all. If anyone deserves support its them as they help everyone around them every day!
Its awesome u won a ticket too! now you @saramiller and @everlove all have ur trips! Now I just need to lock mine in! So I appreciate any support I can get to make that happen!
Hope to see u around on Steemit more often and hope to see u at SteemFest in a few months!
SteemON!

Thanks Quinn. I hope to meet you one day.

May it be so!
SteemON!
