I have to agree about the 'building relationships' part of this. It was less than one month since I joined Steemit that I attended SteemCamp Birmingham and met some influential people such as @steevc and @lloyddavis.

It was a very small event but quite vital to my start of the road, and I almost didn't go thinking it may have been a little cultish.

I'm quite sure Ill be at the Poland gig, but how will people recognise me? Should I print out my avatar and create a slobberchops mask so I don't have the repeat question, 'so who are you?'

Surprisingly enough, that is not the real me, but a real maniac :)
