Are there enough songwriters on Steemit to run a songwriting contest? Would you like to win a new guitar?
I had an interesting conversation with @meno, one of the winner's of Steemit Open Mic Week 51, who had an idea he wanted to share. He sent me a message in Steemit chat and gave me permission to share it with the community to see if there is some interest. It reads"
I know that you and @pfunk are big on original music
I used to even run events for songwriters here in Miami, many moons ago
I was thinking we could do a songwriter competition
and here is where it gets interesting...I actually have a small music retail business
so I would be willing to donate to the event for the winner an acoustic guitar with case.We would have to agree on the logistics of the contest, maybe do it for 4-week... 16 songwriters, to 8, to 4, to a winner
Each week we would have to decide on the theme of the week you have to write about.
Everyone of course gets to keep their song rights and all that.
My goal is to promote the creation of original material and grow of course within the community @meno
I think a songwriting contest to win a new guitar would be an awesome idea to promote on Steemit Open Mic, if, there are enough songwriters who enter.
Image credit Before jumping right in though, I thought it would be a good idea to get some feedback from the community.
What do you think of the idea and would you support it?
If you're a songwriter, or know someone who is, would you enter the contest, or tell them about it?
This post is to gauge community interest and engage with your ideas and comments so please let us know in the comments below.
