Hello to all you guys! When I found out about Steemit, my first thought was how this platform is gonna change the world, then how this platform isn't already bigger than Facebook yet! Twisted Sister has a whole lotta fans out there, and I wanna get the word out!

A Little About Me
On stage I'm Eddie "Fingers" Ojeda, and I'm an original band member with Twisted Sister. Our band has been playing together since the late 70's. Music was my world, especially Jimmy Hendrix, The Beatles, and Pink Floyd, which were some of my biggest influences while I was growing up in New York City. When our then small band in the 70's was able to sign a record deal, I couldn't believe we made it. The music industry isn't the dream I thought it would be, but it changed my life forever, and I want to share that life with all of you guys!
If you want to learn more about the band's history, there's an incredible documentary on Netflix called "We Are Twisted F***ing Sister!" If you love Twisted Sister, you will love it as much as I did!
My Beginning in the Crypto Market
I got into cryptocurrency about a month ago when I saw the potential of the market over the last few months and how fast it's expanding. Cryptocurrency has consumed become a small obsession of mine in a short time span. This is such an amazing opportunity for people to get engaged in something that has the potential to dominate the future of the financial world. My experience with bitcoin was so similar to others, years ago just hearing about it from the mainstream news, and thinking about the lucky people who were able to change their own lives by taking a risk and believing in this new market. When it boomed again in February, I kept an eye on it, until I finally decided I was tired of watching and wanted to be a part of this.
My biggest help was Chris Dunn on youtube and @jerrybanfield, who have amazing content and have been so helpful with their videos introducing people to this new market. Everyone on youtube who puts their thoughts out there, you do such amazing work, and I wouldn't even be here if I didn't learn about it through content creators like them. Thanks to all you guys who put in the effort to make cryptocurrency grow even faster!
