Steemit Open Mic Week 67 - See Who Played Open Mic PART ONE
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 3 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 67 - See Who Played - Part 2
Steemit Open Mic Week 67 - 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 from a record 365 last week to a new record of 771 entries this week! Of those only 380 qualified.
Not all of the entries are in these posts though.
Due to the sheer numbers of entries this week we have only picked 336 of the best ones to put in these posts. If I included all posts it would require over 7 posts to do so. That's crazy numbers guys! 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.
If you find your video posted on someone else's account, please let me know so I can mute them from my feed.
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.
These 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 peek 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.

BTW, someone stole your video off of youtube that you entered this week, uploaded it to another youtube account and posted it on a new steemit account claiming it was their performance. We caught them, called them out, and muted their account.
They deleted the video. Here is the link https://steemit.com/openmic/@arispaloh/steemit-open-mic-week-67-3770788fa9923
You're doing a fantastic job with all the growth and interest in the Open-Mic - as well as all the challenges that come with it! Thanks, man!
Everyone, especially those new to the venue, please read this entire post from the beginning to fully appreciate all of @luzcyphers hard work, the rules for entering, and the recent changes that he's made in the rules for everyone's benefit! Thanks again!
Thanks for all your help making Open Mic what it is.
Thanks, brother, that means a lot to me - just as the Open-Mic itself alongside the Songwriters venues mean a lot to me too!... I'm so sure that I'm not alone in feeling that way... Thanks again, bro... Every little bit of recognition counts - no matter which side of the fence one might be playing their music on... :-)
You jumped backstage right when Open Mic started getting crazy numbers and we started another contest at the same time. How are you holding up man?
I had a feeling things were going to get busier real fast, that's why I asked for your help and you really are coming through. Thanks for everything you do.
By hook or by crook - I'm hangin', brotha! I appreciate your appreciation if that makes any sense whatsoever... :-)
Music is the spirit of life despite the difference of playing and singing
It's all a form of human expression and good for the soul.
It's amazing the amount of work and time you guys are puttin on this, I reallly appreciate it. Anyone can tell this takes TONS of effort.
Thank you for featuring me on this post, and for eveything you are doing!
It is a lot of work but listening to all this music from around the world is awesome. Steemit is making people sing and play music which is the coolest thing.
WOOOW love to see so many nice artists . thanks for creating this dope open mic contest . YOU ROCK :)
Glad you found us. Love your music

@luzcypher , @passion-ground I haven't been able to see the images of the new rules, my internet in venezuela doesn't allow it.
Is there anything new I should know that will keep me from participating next week if I don't know?
Read the post. There is a link to the rules and the new rule. That's why I make posts, so people can read them.
