Steemit CEO @ned and his team wrote such a beautiful letter to the Steemians that I felt it had to be set to music. This is my attempt at turning it into a little opera.

I started with the post. Here’s a link: https://steemit.com/steemit/@steemitblog/steemit-winter-update-2017-reflection-our-vision-statement-and-mission-and-a-look-forward. READ IT!

I didn’t prepare to perform this at all – it is completely improvised. I simply got the guitar, tuned it up, and started playing. So whatever sounds unrehearsed, was. There are also a couple of errors in there / it was a LOT of text!

In the song I mention the following amazing Steem-team folks: @goldibex @pkattera @andrarchy @theoretical. I apologize if I mis-sung your name! Let me know if I did :)

Here’s a picture of what my one monitor looked like while I was singing and playing (it's a lot of text!).

OMG, that was nice!

Hope you continue with other posts!

lol I love the creativity of taking the post and singing it! We must have the same definition of "brief" being less than an hour!

I will resteem and am enjoying listening to this!

We must have the same definition of "brief" being less than an hour!

Same as mine exactly!

Haha! Yeah, that’s the truth @jerrybanfield. I played music on @DLive for almost 3 hours the other day :)

Thank you for resteeming! That means a lot. Cheers, my friend! Looking forward to collaborating on some tunes down the road :)

Better than any audiobook I ever heard, LOL! Great job brother.

Thanks, my friend @abrockman! Haha. I appreciate it. This was a blast.

You always have totally extraordinary ideas, thats the creative mind of a genius

Thanks so much @pyro0816! Tell me if you dig the opera. It's 38 minutes long! Hahaha. :)

I did the whole thing. Good thing, you rocked the shit out of it in the middle and at the end.

Haha. Thanks! I did my best :) LOL.

I admire your tenacity. Didnt watch the whole thing but you win points for seeing it through once you'd started it! :)

That's high praise, my friend! Had no idea what I was getting into when I started, hahaha. Thanks for checking it out!

Haha, thanks for singing it for us!
I love how you can just tell a story, give information, hold a discussion, tell ANYTHING, while jamming. I absolutely enjoyed your performance. 😄
And the soft 'binance dot cooom...

Haha @art.life Thanks!

Yup. I tried to be tender with binance :) I'm always looking for vowels as I'm trying to sing the text :) As an artist, you will dig that mindset. I have to kind of be in there seeing what's next.

Thanks for the note! :)

Kent, you are super talented! Keep it up, I'm proud of you! 🙌🏼
