What a lovely initiative by Hive account@peaceandmoney ! I wasn't aware of it, so thanks for bringing it to my attention :) Comments don't get enough traction/attention on here, definitely, and it's a shame 'cause sometimes there's such interesting stuff going on in them. Thanks for the payout, as well, but you really didn't have to.

What a great comment from Hive account@davidfar - he's got a great point. Though personally, I don't just hope they join Hive, I hope more people start adopting the view that we have here (is that entitled/arrogant to say? Maybe a bit, but I do feel we're genuinely onto something pretty cool here). I think it's a bit of a different boat for musicians/performers than it is for writers, though given my own efforts to promote my own stuff out there, I can safely say Hive is the single best place I ever found for it. No other platform seems to be genuinely interested in rewarding talent and artistic endeavors in the way Hive does. (and thank fuck for it!) It's a sad state of affairs in the rest of the Internet, but here, people seem so kind and so willing to support you and not even for being some jaw-dropping viral sensation type thing, just for trying your best and believing in your art. How fucking cool is that? :)

So yeah, cheers for the shoutout, my friend and rock on!
