## <center>Open Mic Winners From Week 22</center>  ##

**Thanks to everyone who entered and supported Open Mic Week 22**. Community support for Open Mic has been tremendous and is one of many projects bringing the music community together on Steemit. 

There are a lot of good entries this week making the judging process really hard. 

I just want to remind everyone that votes are only part of the selection process. Entertainment value and performance is factored in too.

The coolest thing about Open Mic is it brings the Steemit community together and that is the whole point of this project. 

Thanks to @pfunk for helping to sponsor Open Mic and he's even generously been giving Steem bonuses to participants posting original music.

Open Mic is not about winning or losing, it's about building a connection on Steemit through music. Watching the collaboration happen online between musicians who played and met on Steemian Open Mic is very rewarding and many of the people who play and post earn some nice rewards for playing a song.

**For many, it's easier to get some Steem in your tip jar by playing for Open Mic than it is to play music on the street.** 

These are the top 5 earning posts for Open Mic this week.
